E Fades for Politics Every Days
03.26.2023
Meet Eric “E Fades” Alderete, founder of Fadebox, a modern-style barber shop that goes beyond cutting hair and has become more of a brand and lifestyle for its loyal patrons. Growing up in the small town of Taylor, TX, E realized that there weren’t many talented local barbers and decided to take cutting hair into his own hands as a hobby. E’s friends let him practice and learn on them and he eventually became skilled enough that more students began signing up as clients, making E’s pastime more like a part-time. E got his first real opportunity as a professional barber in Austin, where he spent three years building a large enough client base to start his shop. With hard work, savvy business partners, and a wizard with the scissors leading the charge, Fadebox was born.
