The thing I see that's really confusing for barbers and clients is the difference between a regular comb over and a disconnected comb over. In the last week's episode I showed you what a disconnected combover is. This week we're talking about a regular comb over

As I’m already an experienced barber, I already know how to do all the things in this video. But I was very pleased how well you explained everything and demonstrated it forreal . Wish I could have watched you cut 10 years ago when I started cutting 😂

[@AndysCuts]

Thank you! That means a lot

Times like these makes one realize how much we take simple things for granted. I live in Germany and have two teenage boys. Until yesterday they were starting to look like moldy erasers on a pencil. We are locked down right now and hair stylists are forbidden from opening their shops. I have cut my own hair for 25 years. Then again the military buzz cut I have sported since 1994 is not hard to do. This situation made me wonder if I could give my boys a haircut myself without turning them into the laughing stock of the town. I watched you videos and studied your techniques like I was back in college. I even took notes man! Two days ago I voulenteered my oldest (almost against his will😆). The end result came out so good that my youngest went from scared to happy when it was his turn. Yesterday they went back to their mother's house. (We're split). She asked me where I found a hairdresser who was open. She still thinks I'm doing something in secret with a female hairstylist because she cannot believe I cut their hair. Two weeks ago I wouldn't have believed me either. I can do that now. I gained a limited skill set and an ability I never had before. It's actually enjoyable to do too. A lot more than moving freight and hauling cargo. And my boys now have cool points their friends are jealous of. I cannot thank you enough for sharing this wisdom with the world. It's so simple and common, yet so secret and mysterious to those who know nothing about it. Thank you again.

[@tinyybiceps]

Good stuff man!! Proud of you

[@orange-one]

awesome story

[@tolovefreely]

We can no longer afford frequent haircuts for my hubby and boys. Thank you for this video. This is probably the best one I’ve seen for doing a step by step cut. I’m surprised this doesn’t have more views!!

[@AndysCuts]

You are so welcome!

[@ryanr8121]

I seriously wish that I could find a barber that cuts hair as meticulously as you. I feel so many rush to turn over customers.

[@pimpmyride7278]

That means their pricing is too low.

[@johnchiluiza2841]

I have been cutting my hair for 20 years and I have asian type hair, i learn a lot from watching your videos. Thank you also I want you to cut my hair but I live in nyc. Hope to some day come to your barber shop. Thanks again.

[@sl33pers39]

I love the fact you sanitize your hands and clippers. A true professional

What once started with me just helping my brother fix his mistakes after he badly tried shaving his own head, has actually developed into a hobby of sorts. I do my entire families hair now, including my own. Thanks so much for putting these pieces of advice and knowledge out there, so I can improve my own skills. I was gifted a better shaver and have started really honing in on my inner barber now. So happy to have this creative outlet. Thanks!!!

[@annamedina2364]

Best video I’ve watched so far this week! My hubby would be so pleased!! Thank you Andy!

Finally, video tutorial of a professional understanding Asian hair texture. All the ✂️ cuts on his channel have been phenomenal

[@julianleal8908]

Iv been looking for a barber to make a good video on cutting the top of the hair and no cap, best channel by far to give great instructions on How to cut the top hair. Fantastic work G

[@gdhhayes2129]

I learned none of these details in cosmetology school and thus dreaded this kind of haircut because it never turned out right. Had I been given proper training those 30 years ago I'd have gone forward in a career in hair as I still have a passion for it. Your tutorials are fantastic

[@kazi_]

This is it. A real tutorial. Also ur voice is so soothing. Love ya ♥️♥️

Thank you! Did you see the others?

Wow, thanks!

[@NioTvHairedu]

You will not lose seeing the tutorial from Andy clear and easy to understand..

[@treegee1205]

Great video Mr. Andy. I hope many barbers may watch this especially here in the Philippines. Some of the barbers here are very outdated when it comes to new techniques in men's haircuts. You are one of my favorite KZbin personality. More power to you Mr. Andy.

[@AndysCuts]

Thank you. Sometimes they just don’t care to learn as well. Just there to make a quick buck. Or they might also think my methods are a waste of time haha depends on the barbershop you visit

[@tuanphong423]

The best tutorial Andy 👍! Thank you for sharing.

I watched this video and this has takin my haircuts to the next level! The 8 times really work!

[@tsalt]

hi good video, i just have a question, how would you do it if you want the fringe longer? for example lets say his fringe was down to his eyebrows, how would you do the regular cut then? Thanks

[@AndysCuts]

Over direct the front. While maintaining a shorter back. Make sure it's not too short or too much of a difference

[@G0kublack13]

Greetings from Greece! You have helped me a lot, thank you very much, you should make a comeback in haircuts tutorials, I would like a new regular guide like this and with longer hair customer as well ! I wanted to see if anything has changed after all these years in your regular cuts. Thanks again Andy!!

[@AndysCuts]

Thanks for the idea!

Great tutorial! Going to try this with my son. His hair grows so fast and really needs a haircut every 2 weeks but hasn’t had when since the first week of March. I was able to do a fade on the sides last week but had trouble with the top. Your tutorials are very helpful. We are going to try again this weekend. Glad this popped up in my feed. Thanks for sharing.

sounds like a great video

This should be a staple video for barber schools 👍

[@AndysCuts]

I was actually thinking about opening a school once

[@AndysCuts]

Thank you. I really appreciate that comment

[@hellboyrage6352]

Your tutorial is great. How do you know how short to cut the on top? Is there a formula or a guide that you use with your fingers to determine the length left on top?

[@AndysCuts]

That depends on the client or yourself

[@146gods]

Your an amazing teacher, how would you cut hair like me thats slicked back but going to the left a little? I have a lot of hair and its wavy btw

[@AndysCuts]

Thank you! Ill see if I can work on that video for you

[@marcohernandezramirez7283]

So please on the crown zone we shouldnt pull the hair correct? In order to leave it shorter than the front??? Thanks

After your last video, I counted and my barber only cuts 4 to 5 times going back. I need to come by for a cut.

[@AndysCuts]

He can go 4-5 times going back only if he does a lot going side to side

Always wanted to know. Perfect video.

Thank you so much

[@helenajake7856]

How long have you been cutting hair your an expert

[@AndysCuts]

Almost 10 years. Thank you!

[@DeeJayRoyalT2]

For a regular haircut do I have to tell the barber what number I want the cut or is there a standard number length to cut it? Also do I have to tell them I want it blended or is that something the barber already knows to do?

[@AndysCuts]

You still need to tell them a number for a regular haircut. “Most of the time” it’s a number 2 or 4. You also need to tell them if you wanted blender to the top or not. The styles nowadays makes it like that

[@DeeJayRoyalT2]

Thank you for your reply!!

[@peterlauj222]

Awesome !! Videos are great and informative! You are definitely a great barber who has a passion in cutting and making sure the clients look their best !

How do you learn to use the scissors ✂️ so well give some tips about that

[@GILSJOURNEY]

Hi your videos have been extremely helpful. I am not a barber but during this current situation my son has asked to cut his hair. He likes it to be combed forward flat on the top and the front is basically facing straight up and blended all around. I was wondering if I would do a hair cut like the one in this video and also do I do the fade before or after I cut the top? Thank you so much for your help. One more thing his hair is very straight and thin.

You can try. Or have someone do it for you

[@nancymeece5110]

Thanks for the video and for explaining in detail. My husband wears his hair parted in the middle and feathered. So would I stand in front of him and pull the hair toward me to cross check it? And will this type of cutting (like u are doing in this video) work for his hairstyle?

So is there a specific type of comb that is best for cutting with scissors?

Nope. Just straight up

[@spencerbernard4941]

So teeth depth of the comb doesn't matter?

[@underthebus5801]

Andy: Thanks for producing the very informative video. I watched Part 1and Part 2. If my hair parts naturally, am I a better candidate to have a disconnect VS blended cut/style?
