Ok nice content 😅 different approach of teaching I’ve seen and it’s very helpful for beginners to learn because most beginners never even held a clipper and pressing too hard is pointless when the clipper does the trick and awesome way of explaining the technique they have learned and apply your knowledge to it will help them understand what they’re actually doing.❤ it

[@abdulsameekanth821]

idk if its your mike or your voice but this is some asmr type stuff. I love it

[@Staygold31]

My mic was echoing more than usual haha but I’m glad to hear this! I need to get into more asmr style videos ! Thank you! 🙌🏼🥰

[@rickfinley77]

Yes! I had that exact same thought and was checking the comments to see if anyone had already said that. Maybe it's because I'm tired after a long week but it's soooo peaceful. :-)

[@ignite134]

Your cuts are dope. But it's not the main reason I watch your vids. Your wisdom, your experience, your personality is what drives me forward. Thank you for being the person you are 🔥🔥🔥

[@Staygold31]

awww i appreciate that a lot !! Those are definitely very important things to me. thanks so much!!!

[@RicardoGonzalez-lh6mv]

It would be amazing to learn hands on from you, the cuts are always clean

[@Staygold31]

Thanks so much Ricardo! Stay updated on the Gold Zone courses. :D Hands on available through those courses :D

[@eddiesewell7337]

360Jeezy, Chris Bossio, South Bay Chris, etc... All great barbers. But I especially enjoy your videos, you tend to show clients of different backgrounds and cut well with all of them. Also you give other info that's just as important as knowing how to cut, which is SO vital. It's not often you see female barbers, especially those that have branded themselves so well. Keep pushing!!

[@Staygold31]

Wow thank you so much Eddie for this message!! I def make it a point to be a versatile barber so your observation makes me feel good about it. I agree, there’s a lot of avenues of barbering that are as important as the haircut and technique. Thank you for your feedback! Means a lot to me 😃💈❤️

[@massterrbarber]

Would love to hear and see more about your experience and things being overlooked to better our industry and create more value cause our industry is everything to me I’m seasoned and still remain teachable and our industry is growing fast 😅and I’m looking for a way to give back and support our industry.BLESSINGS and keep it coming 😅.

[@kathleenorque4416]

Thank you for taking the time to make this video. I learned a lot from you. Thank you.

[@Staygold31]

Happy to hear that!

[@Empireer-wr1xm]

Nice blend on that taper Sophie!!! like the small details, barber talk

[@Staygold31]

Glad you like it!

[@stravssgrijalba1554]

I love your vibe and vision Sophie

[@Staygold31]

Thanks so much 🙏🏽❤️

[@infamouslola21]

Ok idk if it was just because I was wearing my AirPods but your voice was incredibly soothing!!! Also I feel like I’m finally starting to understand what I’m talking about it when it comes to fades/tapers especially with the locking detents on the babyliss clippers🙌🏼 but I like what you said at 8:45 tho cause even though in theory I get it I just have to find what works best for the client and that’s where I need to lock in on (just knowing that every head is different) cause I get discouraged seeing a dip or a dark area on the fade even though I consistently did the same steps through out the head... Also I loooove the outro clips!!!

[@Staygold31]

Thanks so much (: yeah i totally get you. Every single head will be a different challenge and the more u do, it’ll make more sense as you go in how you maneuver through different dark spots (:

[@Orgnl1]

dope... thank you gal !

[@Osvanyer]

Good for you girl, you’re one of the best barbers 💈 out there and i respect ✊🏼 the heck you...

[@erinmaracee3807]

[@jordantaylor8425]

Dude, you’re so badass! I’m striving to get to your level! Dreams & vision being fulfilled at its finest. Love what you do!

[@Staygold31]

[@renanlugtu9133]

Hi Sophie, im just new here watching your videos.. Thank you for this one this helps alot! Keep posting pls...

[@jp4942]

Thanks for sharing! Enjoying these videos. Me just starting in barber school it’s very helpful to see and learn all I can.

[@Staygold31]

Appreciate the feedback!! I'm glad to know it helps you as a student in school. Are you guys using the Pivot Point system by any chance ? or is it Milady?

[@jp4942]

Sofie StayGold we are using Milady

[@Staygold31]

Ahhh that sucks lol that’s an old system. Pivot point i got to be part of creating the lessons and we did that about two years ago i think

[@jp4942]

Sofie StayGold I’m enjoying it so far. I really love my school as well. It’s thought of very highly around the Dallas area. Looking forward to seeing you in Austin in March!

[@Staygold31]

jeff p that’s good they’re taking care of y’all. Hopefully it’s an updated version y’all have than the one i had seen cuz i was mindblown at the videos

[@viennasamone2419]

[@edismoz]

Amazing content ... thanks for sharing

[@Staygold31]

My pleasure! Thank you for watching!

[@sabrinafiree]

Thank you so much for this video. My husband has blonde hair and I’ve been struggling so bad to fade his hair.

[@Staygold31]

Glad it was helpful!

[@MrRoss-wf2xd]

*Nice video👌🏻💇🏼‍♀️*

[@mariagallo9965]

Thanks Sofie, you are such an inspiration and a great teacher. I have a client that wants to go from a 4 down to skin, but a very low taper. I use metal blades but do have guards. I have been having a hard time with this cut because there is such little space to do it, and he wants the box shavers to go around his ears. Any recommendations would be great! Or if you have a video please lmk where to find it or what to type in to watch it. Thanks so much! 👏🎉💥

[@josuevivarcuahutle48]

I always had problems fading blind hair! Can u make a video explaining in detail how to choose between giving your cliente a drop fade or a straight across fade ? And also how much more space do you leave in the back of your clientes head in between every guide line

[@zumbafanification51]

Sofia can you do fade faux hawk and Mohawk please. I just started working in a real barbershop and realize that barbershop does haircut differently.

[@xxaxelxx8570]

I was wondering if you could make a video on how you connect the sides with the top? The Parietal Section to be exact, I feel like sometimes I struggle to some length and or using some shear work on the top to make the the top look good is what I struggle sometimes.

[@Staygold31]

2 videos ago i spoke about that ! Video is called crop skin taper. check out the beginning!

[@junebug8808jec]

Great video👍

[@Staygold31]

I appreciate the feedback! thank you!

[@eromero7952]

Hi so idk if this is a dumb question but do you think the pressure of your hand is important? Like heavy handed or light handed?

[@Staygold31]

Not a dumb question at all! It’s actually important and does help. I’m light handed so my line work is not as hard to blend out. Understanding hand pressure helps the blend 💯

[@eromero7952]

@@Staygold31 im heavy handed and think it plays a role in my fades.i feel like I have to work extra to get lines out. Im gonna try to work on my pressure. Thanks for your response ❤️i really value your input😊

[@maselm]

I have a birthmark on the back of my head in exactly the same place

[@elxmen0007]

Eres la mejor

[@Staygold31]

Thank you so much for watching :)

[@MADEnAMERICA78]

Beautiful blend girlfriend!!

[@Staygold31]

Appreciate that a lot! thanks for the feedback!

[@sense321]

When you are blending down are you scooping out?

[@Staygold31]

when i'm working down ? like which part? If im thinking right...any movements i take to blend, always finishes off in a light C scoop to create an easier transition

[@sense321]

Sofie StayGold I meant when you are blending out your guideline. Thank you for your response I appreciate it 👍

[@suetammilan4154]

🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷👏👏👏

[@bigapple2315]

They don’t sell the influencer clippers in the store anymore why is that?

[@Staygold31]

We only did a limited run on that special piece. So unfortunately, once they're all gone, you won't be able to get again in that exact format

[@bigapple2315]

Sofie StayGold 😢

[@fademaster859]

Fuck i want to buy this black fx with fade blade clipper does awsome job if you do know how to fade its like the magic clip

[@JULESG8]

This tutorial low key boring made me want to go to sleep

[@Staygold31]

Thank you! btw, you look like you love Babyliss tools...you seem like a great teammate to have.. I'll def put in a good word for you😁🙌🏼
