Afro hair questions
Who is the best black barber in Gravesend?

Is there an Afro Caribbean barber in Gravesend?
Yes. DPZ Parlour at 11 Manor Road specialises in Afro and Caribbean hair, as well as every other hair type.
How often should I cut Afro hair?
Fades look sharpest when refreshed every 1 to 2 weeks. Longer Afro styles need shaping every 3 to 4 weeks.
What's the difference between a skin fade and a taper fade?
A skin fade blends down to bare skin around the sides. A taper is softer and only shortens the hair at the sideburns and neckline.
