The Buzz Cut Comeback: Parents, teens lining up at Fade Masters

Barbers are trained in both modern and old-school techniques.Let’s be honest: kids and teens don’t always see eye-to-eye with their parents, especially when it comes to style. But at Fade Masters of Miami, CEO Vinicio Larios and his team of master barbers have cracked the code.

What’s their “secret sauce?” It’s creating modern, fashion-forward buzz cuts that teens are proud to wear and parents are proud to show off.

“We make buzz cuts feel bold, not basic. When done right, it’s the perfect blend of style, practicality, and confidence,” Larios said.

You might think “buzz cut” means an old-school crew but think again. Popularized in the mid-20th Century, a crew cut is essentially a very short cut on the sides of the head, but typically a bit longer length on top.

Instead, the buzz cut is a modern classic — a one-length haircut all over the head. It’s created with precision clippers for a crisp, clean finish. Whether it’s barely-there stubble or a sleek inch of texture, the result is low-maintenance and high-style.

“We tailor every cut to the client’s vibe — from athletic and sporty to edgy and expressive,” Larios said. “It’s not just about a short cut. It’s about owning your look.”
Parents love the buzz cut for several practical reasons.

“First, it’s easy to maintain,” Larios tells us, quipping, “So, moms can say, ‘goodbye bedhead.’” Second, “it always looks fresh and clean. And third, it grows out evenly without fuss.”

As a result: “Every day, we have moms and dads bringing in their sons before school, vacations, or big events for this stylish cut,” Larios said. “Simply put, a buzz cut is neat, youthful, and always sharp.”

And for grandparents remembering those 1950s-style crew cuts? This isn’t that.

“The buzz cut is a 2020s statement — youthful, cool and Miami-ready,” said Larios, who employs a team of skilled professional barbers at Fade Masters of Miami.

Teens love the bold, stylish energy of a Fade Masters buzz cut. That’s particularly the case, says Larios, when one of his skilled barbers pairs it with one of the following:
• A sharp fade
• A clean hairline
• Optional designs or enhancements that are perfect for IG (Instagram) moments

“We use cutting-edge tools to elevate every haircut,” Larios said. “It’s where classic meets next-gen.”

Located on Grand Avenue in the heart of Coconut Grove, Fade Masters of Miami was named the Top Barbershop in Miami by the Miami New Times in 2023 and 2024.

It’s much more than just a barbershop, say its customers. Think of it as a boutique grooming lounge. How so? While waiting for a haircut or other service, people can enjoy water, Cafecito or other drinks. For instance, adults who are 18 years of age or older can even sip and savor a cold beer or whiskey.

Spanish- and English-speaking barbers are trained in both modern and old-school techniques. They also listen attentively to customer preferences, ask the right questions, and then skillfully tackle everything from tapers to straight razor shaves, beard styling, enhancements, facials and more.

Fade Masters of Miami is located at 3250 Grand Ave., RET1, Coconut Grove, FL 33133. For information, call 786-615-4005 or visit www.fademastersofmiami.com to check out examples of their craftsmanship, images of the handsome shop — and to make an online appointment.
