A darker area on the side of a haircut does not always mean the hair physically projects farther outward. It may reflect greater density, a different length or the way the light falls. Before requesting that a band be removed, establish what you are seeing.
Ask your barber to compare the outline and the visible shade from more than one angle. If the silhouette already suits you, explain that you want to preserve it. The proposed change should address the specific concern rather than assume every darker area needs to become much shorter. At a Japanese barber consultation in Sydney CBD, separating colour impression from actual contour makes the request clearer.
