As a female that has been cutting her own hair for a number of years I found these clippers as you would say, feeling good to the hand. I just want to have more knowledge about the cutting game for myself so thank you!!!

[@AntTheBarber]

😊🙏🏽

[@24AnVRodri]

Just ordered my Cordless Envy and thinking about getting this blade as well. By the prices of the blades, might as well buy the Fade clippers to use the blade and still have a power coded clippers as a backup. It’s only a few more dollars more 🤷🏽‍♂️

[@niameadows4423]

I go back and forth with the fade blade and the taper blade on the envy I end up just putting the taper blade back on it because if u have the Andis fade master you will never pick this machine up!!! But with the taper blade to me it's More valuable especially if you like to fade using the Andis guard system vs. using the Magic Clip and the wahl system.

[@pierreboyd4107]

I changed the blade and its great. Thanks for the video. Put the blade it came with on my andis camo clippers. Cordless is so much better and they are nice and light.

[@AntTheBarber]

Dope , thanks for watching the video and the feedback 🙏🏼

[@robblendz]

Hope santa comes home hella early and gets me these. 😂💀

[@brittonk13]

Seems like they did actually know what they were doin with the single magnet🤔 Dope Video✌🏼

[@studswaggah]

this would've been so nice if you could've did a comparison cut or at least cut some hair to let us see how it performs ugh....🤦🤦🤦but oh well🤷.....i did the exact same modification on a Walmart clipper!!! I switched it up and the fade blade is cool for smoothing Afros and stuff but the fades didn't do so well

[@AntTheBarber]

Elite Mentality I have more videos doing cuts .

[@andresbrambila4268]

This was just an unboxing and first hand feel review.

[@diz354]

Dope video I'm thinking about swapping blades on my Envy's but I'm not familiar with the differences in cutting since I'm not a barber and advice?

[@AntTheBarber]

Dizzy Roth the difference is one is a fade blade , and one is a taper blade . The fade blade makes it easier on skin fades or low fades in general ... but if zero gaped to close it can pull on the clients skin . The taper blade can do the same but with more work on the bald line . Hope that helps

[@emailkenny]

Weird that Andis doesn’t offer a “fade” or “masters” cordless? 🤔. That would eliminate the need for this modification. Until then, thanks for the tutorial & mod 😉

[@AntTheBarber]

emailkenny I total agree they go cordless and it's game over , but until then we gotta make it work . Thanks for watching 🙌🙏

[@christopherdiaz7007]

I have a question with zero Gap in do you do you have to open up the blade a lil every time you put a new guard on and the Andis t outliner when seting the blade do u hold it down and tighting it till u cant no more

[@pimpmyride7278]

Why don’t people use the guards in the box? Is something wrong with them??

[@AntTheBarber]

I didn't like them .

[@pimpmyride7278]

Ant The Barber can I get an explanation? What about them??

[@AntTheBarber]

@@pimpmyride7278 just cheap feeling so I didn't really give them a chance , you might actually like them . It's all preference at the end of the day ... if you try them out let me know what you think 😊🙏🏽

[@rania.g481]

Good video Bro! I have they and i put the blade and the case cover Andis Fade Gold in to my Envy li. Can make Really good cuts with them.

[@lukegoringe3789]

I've had my andis pro li clippers around 3 days now and the charging light doesnt work anymore can anyone help

[@AntTheBarber]

Not sure what that could be , take the back 🤷🏽‍♂️

[@PONDON10]

Can i change the blade so i can use the double magnet instead instead?

[@AntTheBarber]

Nope or I would of 🙏🏽

[@estradahernandezj]

Am i the only one who prefers single magnets over double? 🤔

[@AntTheBarber]

I’m sure your not the only one but it’s all about preference 👌🏽

[@danielaguirre454]

the original blade on the envy the same as the master original blade....?

[@AntTheBarber]

Daniel Aguirre no its different

[@AntTheBarber]

Daniel Aguirre the Andis Master original blade wouldn't fit this Envy clipper unfortunately .

[@danielaguirre454]

thank you for the quick response but are the fade blade and original blade from the masters cut similar to the envy fade blade and taper blade....?

[@AntTheBarber]

Daniel Aguirre no the Fade Blade cuts different than the Master and original Envy blade . The original Envy blade cuts just like any Taper blade .

[@chadalexander292]

If the black piece wat hold the second blade pop off, do I have to take the clippers apart to put it back on?

[@Dhowse10]

Thank for the info”..but can the magnetic guard fit the original clipper blade that came with the clipper..

[@AntTheBarber]

D. Howse yes , just single magnetic guards .

[@Dhowse10]

Thanks bro for the info, so do they cut good I’m ordering them off eBay and the signal guards I will order then, do you think they’ll fit Andis Alloy clipper to you know

[@erickdominguez2704]

Can you put links to buy the single magnet and the extra fade blade

[@raiderkendall]

Good video say do happen to know where I can get a replacement battery for these.My battery needs to be replaced and having trouble finding it...Thanks ahead..

[@AntTheBarber]

marcello kendall I don't know where to get the battery I'm sure Andis will replace it if you contact them . If not just type in replacement battery and Clipper name in the search bar on eBay and go from there . Hope that helps , I appreciate you watching my video hope you decide to stick around 🙌🙏

[@raiderkendall]

Ant The Barber was just watching one of youre tutorials and I've searched eBay,google etc.But no luck..I guess I'll eventually will and thanks for the quick response and just subbed to you're channel bring some haircut tutorials... Barberlove

[@youngnwreckless4235]

Oh okay they can’t be zero gapped ?

[@christopherdiaz7007]

so can you tell me how to do it with the Wahl cordless magic clips

[@AntTheBarber]

Christopher Diaz I have a video on it bro , go watch it and it will walk you through🙏

[@c-los2142]

What’s the fade replacement blade for? Is there sum out there like a triple 0 guard for bald skin fade?

[@AntTheBarber]

I use this clipper for skin fades so I rock a fade blade on it , not the taper blade . In my opinion it works better this way .

[@c-los2142]

Awwreddy, but does it cut to the skin? I use these clippers but I have to backdoor & use a razor to shave.

[@khandles11]

Do you need to change the blades that come in the box ?

[@AntTheBarber]

I needed to cause I didn’t like the other blade so it’s totally up to your preference 👌🏽

[@gothamknight9758]

Will the guards this clipper comes with fit with this new blade on there ?

[@AntTheBarber]

Yes

[@BSALINAS415]

Dope video! Was thinking of copping a Envy Li. I currently have a Andis 00000 blade on my oster classic 76. Do you know if I can throw that blade onbthe Envy? Thanks in advance

[@AntTheBarber]

BRANONE415 I'm not sure about that one , I also tried the andis ceramic blade and it didn't fit so it's hit and miss .

[@BSALINAS415]

Ant The Barber yeah Im pretry sure that that the ceramic side won't fit cause of the detachable blade notch on the clipper side. But looks like the hole location on the bottom blade side looks identical. Gonna try it once I get them. Thanks again!

[@AntTheBarber]

BRANONE415 can you let me know when you do ? I wanna know if it fits too now 🙌

[@kesterugo8738]

Please boss any tips for beginner in Blade sitting

[@AntTheBarber]

Kester Ugo tons of videos on KZbin how to set blade , I like to leave a few hair strands length between the cutting blade and steal blade . Some people like to zero gap completely but I like to play the safe side and go with a few strands ... hope that helps .

[@kesterugo8738]

OK boss pls make it simpler for a beginner like me.... Thanks alot

[@christopherdiaz7007]

do you have to hold it down how you're holding the blade down on this one

I went to put everything back and noticed ever since the sound on the clipper has changed it sounds a lot louder, seems like its lost tension. I can't find a way to adjust that. Any help or tips are appreciated.

[@orangecounty7144]

To DIY people, it's an easy mod to make a double magnet to a single magnet....

[@AntTheBarber]

Is it ? Were can I find that ?

[@orangecounty7144]

I don't have a set of dual magnetic guards, but just by looking at the guards, I would start by Popping out the 2 magnets. I would then place one magnet in the middle of the guard and trace it ( of course, using an original single magnet guard as a guide ) cut the whole in the guard, put the magnet in the guards new magnet hole. Grab an old broken, same kind of guard and hold it above your new single magnet guard and light it on fire. Be careful and when the guard starts to melt, let couple of drops fall on the magnet. It'll make the molding when it cools. Use same material kind of guard so it could bond and it won't add weight. Use a blade or sand paper to make it look pretty. U can use other stuff to hold the magnet but it can get heavier. Again, this is just by looking at it. I don't have a dual magnet guard. And yes, I've done stuff like this...

[@06van]

Do the envy’s use the same charging cord as the foil shavers?

[@AntTheBarber]

Not sure but looks like it

[@06van]

Thanks

[@Jdthebarber760]

Question bro. Do you think there's a way this Clipper could use Oster blades? I have a pair of fast feeds which I love, and i just was wondering if you could swap them. From Fast Feeds to the Envy Li Thx 🙏

Jdthebarber760 I'm not sure but I'd like to know ... you should give it a try and let me know that would be beast !!!

[@nazarethproductions7095]

Does this blade cut near 00000 when zero gapped ?

[@AntTheBarber]

I never used the 00000 blade but yes it basically cuts down to a little past stubble if that makes since , almost skin .

Can the Andis envy use the wahl guard?

[@AntTheBarber]

Yes

[@christopherdiaz7007]

yeah I watched it but what confuses me is tighten it down

[@AntTheBarber]

Christopher Diaz once you have the blade set to where you want hold it in place and begin to tighten the screws a lil at a time switching back in forth so they stay in place where you want .

Only thing Andis should fix on the single magnet guards is the "0" and "1" guard they are ×exactly the same 🤨 not like the double

Hi I have a new Andis Envy the burgandy color what do you recommend to do ? I know the oem guard are garbage the blade what do you recommend ?

[@Dorian_Barber]

This better than the Magic Clips?

[@AntTheBarber]

Detailed Barbers no not even close G

[@12redstars]

I'm so torn between magic clip or these with blade swap, I'm an andis ALLLL Day.... So I wont be disappointed ???

[@buckwitme1]

honestly i have both except i have the cordless envy li nation and i put a and is pro alloy fade blade on it and it out performs my magic clip its all a preference and hype imo and i got the new guards with my li nation which are the same as the double magnetic except with out the magic they a are just snap on and they are light years different from the original envy li guards and they came with a half and a 11/2 guard!! and I'm going to be honest with you my wahl cordless sterling 4 are killing my magic clip! i put a two hole slide on my sterling 4 and a fade blade and they feel like the new cordless senior

[@12redstars]

buckwitme1 so I bought the magic clips and premium guards, zero gapped then. I LOVE being cordless and they cut quickly through thick hair, BUT.... I’ve notice they don’t blend between open/close like my masters! So idk I’m slightly bummed I don’t have time to be using every machine on a haircut lol. Time is Money. Open for any other advice or pointers TY for responding although I already bought the magic clips, I feel like I should have went Li - T

[@buckwitme1]

yea the magic clip have a shorter blade than andis! and the guard system is what i don't like about the magic clip! the li blend very well imo my suggestion would be for you to put a taper blade on magic clip and see if it blends better which i think it does because the fade blade can leave a hard line and takes more to blend out between open and closed so try going to get a taper blade at beauty supply store near ya and see if that makes a difference but which I'm sure that what your issue is

[@IKenexPSN]

Hi there, just a quick question. I have this clipper with the fade blade on but i find that the open lever doesnt bkend into the 0 guard very well. Nor does the 1 open bkend into the 2 at all. Been a life long wahl user and i just cant get my head around why the upgraded guards still dont blend? Any tips? Thanks in advance.

[@AntTheBarber]

Lewis Edmondson are you using the single magnetic guards with it ?

[@AntTheBarber]

Lewis Edmondson or the guards that come with it ?

[@IKenexPSN]

Ant The Barber the single mags. Also zero gapped.

[@AntTheBarber]

Lewis Edmondson I'm honestly a Wahl guy too , I noticed with the single guards the struggle with blending as well . Haven't set my magic clips down since .

[@buckwitme1]

Big Lew they have a new version single mags andis came out with and they blend together beautifully now! You can go Sally’s and pick them up I did a review on them and they are dope imo
