Love the Flattop !!!!

Thanks Greg!

@@lawrence1md Wish i was there with you ans sharing a Flattop experience together, I now have about 4 inches of the old 1970's mop top, i miss the feeling of a good stubble head and the feeling of the warm clippers . Along with the clumps of haircut falling on me. HOT !!!!

Incredible if I tried to cut my hair I dread to think how it would look. Keep well and keep safe.

[@lawrence1md]

The first couple of times it didn’t work out so well but that was many years ago. Thanks for watching!

[@laboy90210]

Outstanding haircut..... time for another one....

[@lawrence1md]

Thank you! I’m self taught so I feel pretty good about the results. Thanks for watching!

[@slickstick2010]

You could do a horseshoe flat with no problems, I just wished I still had enough on top to wear one!! I loved cuttin it!!

[@lawrence1md]

I feel like the top of my head is too rounded for a horse shoe cut. I may try it again. Thanks for watching!

[@joescheller6680]

I love to do flat top on myself continually looking for ideas.

[@joescheller6680]

I agree in a day my hair especially grows fast you don't see a difference I even most time just cut clear up don't worry about the fade. It fades in in a couple days.

[@MedullaOblongata64]

nice work on the DIY flattop... looks good on ya!

[@lawrence1md]

Thank you!

[@user-lq8fr5ns9m]

That was awesome!!! Please do more haircut videos!!! Truly entertaining. Would be epic if you tried a horseshoe flattop or a southside fade in a video

[@lawrence1md]

MJ thanks for watching! I will have to see what a horseshoe flattop is and can possibly try it.

Very skilful Matthew, a second career as a barber beckons...lol. Great look with the goatee.

Great job Sir!!! Love flat tops....I'm bald, so I'm outta luck! LOL

[@lawrence1md]

Thank you! My hair will be sticking around for a while or at least that’s what I have seen by my dad and grandpa

[@joescheller6680]

I prefer slightu rounded edges on top so i use the angle blending combs for each side seems to work for me real well.

[@lawrence1md]

I enjoy the squared off edges

[@jbthomas2687]

thanks for the demo. I too cannot find a barber to give a decent flattop. I have a set of oster 76 clippers, and a few blades. so I have purchased the blades that you are using and will attempt to give myself a flattop this week. wish me luck. I have cut mine in the past, but this time I am going to really try to persue it. thanks again for the demonstration.

[@lawrence1md]

You can do it. The biggest challenge for me in the beginning was the mirror and learning the direction to move my hand vs what I see. Let me know how it goes

[@jbthomas2687]

@@lawrence1md thanks. I received some of the blades today. awaiting one more. then I will start hte haircut.

Man that was awesome I wish I could trust myself to do that

[@lawrence1md]

The first few times I did it, it didn’t turn out so well. After a quick learning curve I was able to do it without a problem. If you decide to try it let me know how it goes. Thanks for watching Kim!

[@joescheller6680]

Mentioned it before but i pitched by corded clipper got cordless. And charging is mo issue for me have done several cuts since ive charged it its been over a year since i charged it. Probably do couple times a month trimming. Never take more than 15 minutes and most of that is searching for right comb attachments

been looking at this. my forehead so big have just given up on anything else… but damn THAT is the exact headshape for a good flattop.

[@lawrence1md]

Thanks for watching!

[@joescheller6680]

First thing ive learned if your buying from scratch get a cordless cutter much more simpler on the tangle part

[@lawrence1md]

I had a cordless and it can put you in a bad spot when the battery goes dead. Thanks for watching!

[@joescheller6680]

@@lawrence1md I charged mine up months ago and it's still going on that charge. 6 or so haircuts so far so I satisfied with it. But it is basically a beard trimmer with three different heads and a nose hair cutter. Has more combs than I ever use.

[@joescheller6680]

My biggest issue is holding cutter at right angle when doing the back the change in positions screws my eqilibrium up or something like that.

[@lawrence1md]

After a while it becomes natural. I’ve been cutting my hair for 20 plus years. Doesn’t seem that long

[@joescheller6680]

Doing the back top part is always my worst or cowlick area. Experimenting to find right comb to do it.
