Rant: Stop calling every fade a skin fade

Had some kid come in yesterday asking for a skin fade but his hairline barely started above his ear. A skin fade goes to bare skin, not a 1 guard. I see this all the time on social media too, guys tagging stuff wrong. Anyone else getting sick of clients mixing up the terms?

PREACH. The word "fade" is getting used for ANYTHING now. Drives me NUTS.

Caught myself using it the other day at work. Told my crew the colors on this gate were starting to fade. My 19 year old looked at me like I'd just insulted his mother. Apparently now fade means anything from a bad haircut to a broken phone screen. I don't get it but I'm done trying.
