The Fading Theory Barber Shop LLC is a wholly-owned ADOS (American Descendants of Slavery) entity that has two Maryland locations. Our Baltimore location (21214) opened in July 2015, and our Aberdeen location (21001) opened in January 2020. Our shops have fully licensed barbers, and per Maryland state COVID19 guidelines for salons and barbershops, we operate by appointment only. Once Governor Hogan lifts the appointment only restriction we will once again permit walk-in clients. The Fading Theory Barber Shop provides classic barber services while implementing traditional and modern cutting techniques. All services at The Fading Theory are provided by licensed, professionals in our upscale, comfortable, yet old-school environment. Our licensed professionals service straight, curly, and combination hair. We continuously strive to become better in all aspects of company operations and we truly want you to see that difference.

Come to relax, chill and get a nice haircut, with nice service in a nice environment, presented by nice professionals, but keep in mind that violating any of our policies may result in no entry, no service, or your being asked to leave. Outside food, drinks, foul, or abusive language, as well as unruly behavior is not permitted in our facilities. Children must remain seated before, during, and after services. We are proud to be a no-nonsense, drug free, and smoke free company, and we mean that. The Fading Theory reserves the right to refuse service to anyone.
