SE HABLA ESPAÑOL · NORTH BEACH, MIAMI BEACH
A barber whospeaks your Spanish.
Half of Miami grew up saying “degradado”, “desvanecido” or “degradé” instead of fade. Leo is from Argentina and works in Spanish every day, so you can explain your cut the way you would at home — and he will get it.
Same cut, different words
What one country calls a fringe, another calls flequillo, fleco, cerquillo, chasquilla, capul or pollina. A fade can be a degradado, a desvanecido or a degradé. None of that is a problem in Leo’s chair: say it the way you say it.
For the whole family
Parents who prefer Spanish, kids who switch between both: nobody has to translate. Leo answers calls and texts in Spanish.
How to ask for it in Spanish
A fade is a degradado. Low, mid and high are bajo, medio and alto, and down to the skin is a piel. The guard is the número: “con el dos a los lados” means a number two on the sides. Leaving length on top is dejar largo arriba, and the beard line is the perfilado.
If you only remember one sentence, make it this one: “Un degradado bajo, a piel, y arriba solo emparejar.” A low skin fade, just tidied up on top.
In Little Buenos Aires
Leo works near Tatum Park in North Beach, the north end of Miami Beach. Along Collins Avenue, roughly between 65th and 80th Street, is the stretch many people call Little Buenos Aires: restaurants, cafés and a lot of Spanish on the street.
