[@IDOITTRAVELS]

What up, Squad! I hope you all found this helpful.

[@kefenlem7466]

Yes very helpful and I loved how you explained the different hair textures

[@shooz4unme]

Definitely!!! Now I've the knowledge n more confidence to edge up myself!!

[@SuperMiguel33]

So helpful bro! I really appreciate you time to explaining and couch. Thanks.

Q: How about a continuation on edging the back and around the ears?

[@henny1387]

Dope shape up and tutorial thanks for this my brother

[@sistercalhoun4444]

A Barber that I knew used to do really tight edge ups he told me when you edge up you always start on the side that has the least hair. An edge up that side first. Then edge up the other side that has the most hair because you can always subtract but you can't add ! 🙂

[@DMCdaJUICE]

Damn this good advice

[@MichaelLesesne]

I can add? 1+1 = 2

[@StanoTheGr8]

I'm bouta send this to my barber.

[@nonameisthename138]

You ain't lying!! I always have to touch up something after him, and he supposed to be the MASTER BARBER!! SMH

[@levitezoe1804]

Lol facts

[@mysterybat35]

lolol..I had a barber who could fade like nobody's business. clipper over comb even.. fades were blurry. but his lineups always were jacked up.. needless to say I had to fire him and I hired myself. been cutting my hair ever since

Dead ass! Barbers wanna charge so much but be trash.

[@rakimtate9525]

You’re the first I’ve seen to do a realistic edge up on a client who doesn’t have the perfect hairline. I appreciate the knowledge!

[@landbeforetimeee]

It's good to see you helping your clients achieve a clean, natural look. Other KZbin barbers are out there turning their victims into Lego men and Fisher-Price adventure people.

This is the best shapeup video, I've come across. U left the light parts intact and tapped away the strong parts to even it out...perfectly done. 👍

Bro this was a big help. I'm not a barber but I cut mine and my son's hair and this advice makes a big difference. Thank you.

[@beautyismyforte2532]

Thank you so much! As a Cosmetologist, I didn't get much training on barbering. Edge up and lining was always hard for me. I am finally understanding more by watching this tutorial. Again, thank you so much!

[@DrFadenstyle]

Excellent video. No enhancements were needed, no holding spray was needed. Very descriptive and to the point.

[@DMFnSmith]

Question: what makes or dictates u edging that vertical bar STRAIGHT up n down opposed to knowing when to do it with a slight slant.

[@mrscooshy1838]

4 years ago i still found it refreshing everytime i felt lòst i just run back to this video. Jah bless you bredda 🙏❤

[@llw53one]

Great job. Thank you. I appreciate your precision and patience explaining everything

[@Mike-hy8cs]

Every edge up or line up is a push back! You just push it just enough like in this video so that it looks natural.

[@mysterybat35]

well, yes and no. when your hair grows you have a little bit of a bang which grows over where your natural lineup starts growing. the trick is to just cut enough of the "bang" to make it nice and tight without going past where the follicles naturally start growing.. but if your natural hairline is not straight then YES you do have to go past that point to make a straight line

[@dagefaye]

facts

[@SuperSecretAgentNein]

@@mysterybat35 but most hairlines aren’t straight right? Every edge up is gonna he a pushback somewhere on the hairline right? Am I wrong?

[@mysterybat35]

@@SuperSecretAgentNein depends what you call "straight" . Im not talking about exact square straight; some hairlines follow a natural curvature. As long as it is cut uniform it doesn't have to be lined up straight as a box/square ..some clients don't even want it lined up like that. Others do. Depends on situation/the clients desire. So if they desire the exact square look and their natural hairline doesn't follow it then yeah I guess you could say that's a "pushback" or "professional pushback" as some would call it.

Man, thank you for showing the coarser hair textures. It shouldn't be as hard as it is to find barber tutorials for nappy hair on KZbin. you just got yourself a sub! Keep it up

[@spencermoore90]

EXACTLY!!!!! I get SO TIRED of these fucking barbers only wanting to show shape ups on guys with wavy hair or dark Caesars...... any blade you put on those textures of hair and I mean ANY blade is gonna look like a million bucks..... they never wanna show an ally headed guy getting a icey lineup so I agree this guy definitely earned my sub 💯💯💯👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

[@darmadusa]

I'm on a very tight budget, so for some time now, I have been cutting my son's hair. I've become quite good at shaping up his fro, but im trying to become better at fading and edging. Thank you so much for this tutorial. Thank you even more for getting to the point, and keeping it clear and simple. Blessings to you and much success! 👍🏾

[@alondra8541]

This is one of my struggles till this day thanks for the video🔥

[@fiftybladesofgrey5448]

Wait, so you don’t push them back 3/4” and use an entire bottle of fibers? I thought that was the industry standard now 😂😂😂 For real though, great tutorial... nice to see someone teaching some common sense.

Omg they did that to my son. I was pissed

[@DavidOrtiz-nh5ce]

I have used hairspray to hold my hair in place and then I used the t-outliner to shape it up. It comes out clean. The only time I have had a hard time is when I put my part line for when I do a comb over on myself. It's harder to do that part line. Good video man. Thanks

[@shill1444]

Eh yo, you just gave a great idea. Been edging up for years and never once thought to use hair spray. I got curly nappy mix and it's always a trick to even do my own. Lol. Good post man.

[@illestofdemall13]

I've also seen some barbers spray the edge up area with hairspray to make the hair stay in place and it makes the hair kinda crispy and easy to line up.

[@casualfandestroyer2503]

Mine does that,it does work out much better he blow drys it to stay in place than lines it up

[@dougatou1]

Super helpful. Some do not prep the edge before cutting

[@brooklynbarber3368]

This is the best video on youtube for line-up. Please make another one for sideburns, ears & nape 🙌🏽

[@IDOITTRAVELS]

Will do! I was talking this with a client earlier. Stay tuned 👀

[@brooklynbarber3368]

MMA BARBER LIFE it would also be helpful for a lot of newer barbers to see the angles with the straight razor for cleanup too. I know it’s tricky in some areas and i really struggled with that for the longest time man.

[@IDOITTRAVELS]

Actually, I did a full edge up on a client in my last haircut tutorial last week. Their is no voice over, but could be helpful. Check it out

[@shannadean4098]

Thank you, I don't like starting in the middle. I was told you must start in the middle, I disagree, and after seeing this, it's good to know other people feel the same. Thanks for the camera trick too.

[@MsNissan95]

I've been having a pretty difficult time with edge-up's and like you, most of the barbers told me to start in the middle but that don't seem to be working for me. I like your tutorial and I think you did an excellent job. One reason in particular, because you showed us step by step and it "WASN'T" fast fowarded. I think I'll try it this way (making the bars first) then connecting the dots. Thank you so much.

[@IDOITTRAVELS]

I hope you find this method easier. Good luck

[@Jerzystransfer1]

Nice video.. talked well through the hair types. Finding the high and low natural line is the key.. no pro here but I been trying to adhere to that for years trying to keep myself clean.. enough that when I stated going back to shops to be able to make an educated decision about where and how you line should look and feel.. growing up on the east coast and having the same barber for years and years teaches ton a lot as well.. cats couldn’t fade when I got out here almost 20 years ago.. they’ve come a long way.. respect!!

[@ljjlander1]

💯 on the camera showing you EVERYTHING!

[@amorphicintertia]

I'm a "retired" barber (just took a different career path) and now mainly just cut my kids hair. The edge up is essential and imho makes or breaks the haircut. It is like washing just the body of the car, but leaving the tires dirty/muddy. On the 1st client, I would have taken the edge back a little less than 1mm on the client's left side to the darkest point to ensure the edge looked crispy the next day. But that's my opinion and preference, as I have the burden/blessing to see my clients everyday until the next cut.

[@arielalvarez24]

You explained that very well, and I will definitely be sharing this video!

I like the way that he doesn't go back too far! Most barbers give everyone the same lining no matter how they hairs setup! Usually taking it way too far back!

[@KingChi1989]

Man I really appreciate you. I'm in barber school now and when I started doing edge ups I would start from the outside and work my way in like you demonstrate. For some reason my instructor has me start in the middle and while yes I have improved since being there. Sometimes I feel as though my edge ups aren't as consistent as I would like.

[@IDOITTRAVELS]

It’s about perspective. Be careful having people tell you that something should be done one way only. You need to do what makes you comfortable to accelerate your learning curve.
