This is EXACTLY what I needed. My husband has ALS, and I have been trying to cut his hair while he is in his wheelchair. This will help me to feel more confident. Thank you!

[@theoneminutebarber]

Im so sorry to hear about your husbands illness. I hope the video helps you, let me know how it goes

[@calreedo9398]

As an older apprentice barber I really love your videos. The animations and highlights on things like weight lines and sections really helps! So glad I found this Channel!

[@theoneminutebarber]

Thank you very much and welcome!

[@vivianaluu9427]

I used this video to cut my boyfriend’s hair (my first time ever cutting hair) and it turned out pretty decent!! He’s happy with how it turned out

[@theoneminutebarber]

Im happy it helped 😀

I’m about to do the same thing😅 wish me luck

[@HOTHomestead]

Same here! My husband is probably to trusting

[@pupu416]

Yup here to learn to do the same 😂

[@athomewithdorothy]

Used this to cut my sons hair! I was always afraid to cut his wavy, thick, longer hair. This gave me the confidence and he loves it. It’s not perfect I’m sure but if he likes it, I’m happy.

I used this video to cut my own hair and it turned out awesome!! Ive only ever cut my bangs before when my hair was a bit longer, but I decided to take a leap and do it myself since its hard to afford getting a hair cut. I couldnt be happier with the results!!! Thank you so much, I will definitely be continuing to use your videos as references. Fantastic job you're doing here!!!

[@theoneminutebarber]

Good luck let me know how you get on

[@1jackvalley580]

You explain everything very well, and it's extremely important so we can learn to use the scissors ✂️ properly. In the U.S. there are still some people who like a good scissor cut, but it's not a common thing. I think a scissor over comb cut is a very handsome cut with very well defined layers, and you teach it so well. I agree that it's important at some point to own a pair of great scissors. Thanks for being such a great teacher and it is NOT BORING, and I am determined to get as good at it as you are. Cheers✂️🙏

[@theoneminutebarber]

Thank you Jack. I think I prefer cutting with scissors too. It give so much more control. You can easily cut hair the same way I use it’s just practice and repetition.

[@lauren.mock10]

Thank you for recreating this with animation to give a visual. Shear over comb has been a challenge for me but putting in my reps and your videos are helping me get there. 😊

[@theoneminutebarber]

Thank you Lauren 😁

[@GrowingDownUnder]

I was surprised when I walked into the barbers and asked if anyone could do a scissor cut and not a single barber in the shop knew how to use scissors so they said sorry we don't know how to do scissor cuts. So I had to go to a different barber and only 1 girl in the other barber shop knew how to use scissors because she worked as a hairdresser and she still did a terrible job.

[@theoneminutebarber]

They will get left behind if they don’t level up the skills they have

[@neiljudebedro4909]

I'm just a ordinary guy. Who knew a sccissor cut. And take to another different level

[@StillPooh62]

During the lockdown I learned to scissor cut my husband's hair by watching this channel. I've gotten so good at it that he still has me cutting his hair, even though shops are all open again. 😎

[@-chris-]

@@theoneminutebarber I think you mean “fade into oblivion”…😂 But on a serious note, haircuts seem to be shifting from clipper fading skills only, back to highly skilled scissor work. I’ve noticed a big difference since I started using scissors on the top of my head, instead of an 8 or 10 guard.

I watched your tutorial and cut my boyfriends hair (im 20 and have never cut hair in my life) we have a 6mo old baby and cant exactly afford to go to a barber. But I had some fabric scissors and did my best with watching this lesson and he likes it a lot! I had a bit of trouble trimming around the neckline and ears and i left the top long but it looks pretty good! Thanks!

[@latada6018]

I’ve learned from YT Videos how to cut my son’s hair. My 22 yr. Old is a Pilot for a Major Airline so a great haircut is very important. I’m so proud to say his hair looks great. My middle son is 27 yrs. Old and in Law School. He is working during breaks doing Internships so haircuts are very important. Again, I’m so proud but I honestly can’t believe I’ve learned how to cut men’s hair. However, I just can’t conquer the “Scissor over comb” method. My hands just refuse to cooperate and work together. Please help! Thank you for sharing your knowledge. You are certainly doing what you love and it shows. 🙏🏻 💇‍♂️ ♥️

[@theoneminutebarber]

Scissor over comb can take a few cuts to get the hang of. The key is in the flipping of the comb. I suggest holding a comb in your hand while watching tv and just practice flipping it over

[@ngolobelgrade8806]

But when I follow your teaching, his hair looks like we went to a salon. One suggestion. Please provide links to all the tools and equipment you display in your videos. Otherwise, brave!

[@theoneminutebarber]

You are so welcome! I often try to include all links for where they are on amazon although some products are only available in the UK

[@anitacardoza6454]

Thank you! I'm glad I found your video, my son is terrified of clippers and has long hair and will handle me trimming or cutting if he sits still so I've had issues finding videos to help me learn. Everyone incorporates clippers for fades but my son doesn't like that. And last place I took him the woman absolutely ruined his hair she cut it way to short n just stuck up in random spots

I hope this helps then let me know how you get on.

@@theoneminutebarber It did! You're videos are so helpful. I like the animation in them. I've watched other barber videos but they don't describe it in detail the way yours does. My husband was very pleased with the result. I was nervous when cutting horizontally but saw as long as you're using the other hair as a guide, it should turn out fine. I was able to cut my son's hair quickly as well. My son doesn't like the hair cutting process, so the quicker the better. He also hates the clippers. So thank you so much. Pretty much your videos are my go to for learning how to cut hair. I might become a member someday especially as my son grows and decides he wants a different hair style. :)

[@erikak4443]

Thanks for the videos, I started to cut my husband's hair watching your videos , still I can not get the left side the way that I would like, almost seems like the hair does not lay down, maybe I'm cutting it to short, I tried to follow the same length all around the head except for the top, next time I'm thinking not to cut that section. I enjoy watching your videos.

[@theoneminutebarber]

Thank you. When it comes to the hair at the side, it's rare that it is symmetrical on anyones head. If you look closely at everyone you can see it. All you can do is try your best to achieve the best symmetry

[@wam0357]

in the scissor over comb, how do you feel confident that you're taking off the same length at each turn of the comb? I dont know if i am the same distance from the head at the start of each section.

[@theoneminutebarber]

If you have a constant distance from the head you are copying the shape of the skull on the ends of the hair. It is called a uniform layer. I tend to adapt to make something more natural. Cutting hair without tension gives you that kind of artistic license

[@cutekidos360]

Tell all how we cut hair with fingers n comb n scissor only plsssss dude

[@ZZ-bt2jr]

Do you ever use this method on shorter hair (that wants to stand straight out) ? Or do you just transition to tension cutting for those types? I have several grey clients who like it very short, and I struggle with this method because their hair is either so lightweight or wiry it's difficult to do this technique with it being short. I'm wondering if perseverance will pay off or if I should just continue do tension cutting for them.

[@theoneminutebarber]

If it’s too short for this technique I recommend clippers. Like you say it can be messy looking if it’s too short, that’s exactly what I find. So go with clippers.

[@alyssa1888]

Love your accent 😊 I prefer clipper over comb, or just my fingers with scissor cuts. To each their own, just as long as it looks good 👍

[@theoneminutebarber]

😊 thank you and I totally agree, as long as the end result is what the client wants, the main thing is that you have a way to achieve it.

35+ years master barber here. Ive watched a few of your videos on scissor over comb cuts. I've noticed you aren't cross checking vertically in the back. You're also not texturing the hair around the crown which would make the hair look and feel less heavy. Jussayin'.

[@theoneminutebarber]

I occasionally include cross section information in my videos. In this video I never. Can’t say why, I must have been happy with the cut during the blow dry. Re texturing the crown, I’ve never textured a crown but that’s not to say I wouldn’t, I would if I had that knowledge.

[@theoneminutebarber]

Btw congrats on 35years in the industry that’s some tour of duty 🙌
