One piece of advice I’d offer is to start your block grad on the widest part of the head which is above the ear. This ensures a square shape as you cut towards the front of the head. Also, using cross graduation through the back of the head connects the two sides much better. Use cross grad in the direction the crown is flowing

With the way Sean is cutting the block graduation with the middle finger against the head, it doesn't really matter where he starts. Because the finger is against the head it is going to naturally follow the shape of the head. So, it really depends on the shape you are trying to create. If trying to maintain that square shape, from a top down view, he would actually need to pull his fingers off the side of the head slightly to maintain that straight line.

Hello, Im a cosmologist working hard to nail down men’s cuts. I understand graduation as building weight in the form . What is cross graduation? Does it refer to the clipper work at the back of head?
@S0N0FJACK Жыл бұрын
@Holly Bigwood cross graduation also known as round graduation is when you cut on a diagonal line. It maintains more length and flow towards the Partial Ridge while blending into shorter hair below. It's normally done by keeping knuckles on scalp and angeling fingers slightly away from the head. Hope that helps

What's up brother Sean? hey man, I love ALL Ur vids. Ur style of cutting really sticks in my head, like, I really get it, but one thing I noticed, not only with you but pretty much every barber I follow. It's when u guys place the comb on to the head to locate the ridge. I understand that is done to locate where the head starts to curve. Now, I'm not a pro barber and maybe I'm wrong but what I do to locate the ridge is just use light. I just spot the area right underneath the glare created by the light, which is reflected right at the highest peak of the client's ridge. So, the bottom edge of the glare is right where the head starts to turn. just wanted to see if I'm the only one that does this.

The Parietal Ridge is never really finished well for me. Ive tried scissor over comb, clippers etc. Fading? either high, med, low, I need advice on the first line and second line process! Do the gloves help with grip? Also, product, there's a spray you use? I would consider one on one class with you, if that's something available? Or if your in the North Carolina area for a training course sometime. Thank you, Bill

I'm wondering why barbers cut into the nape making a line from bottom of ear to ear which is an un-natural hairline. Better if head is up not bent forward and down when cutting. Keeping head up straight following the natural hairline looks more natural. More natural and less funky then cutting into the nape making a fake hairline ....as in cutting into the hairline. Otherwise it looks awesome.
