How to Fade an Undercut Step by Step - TheSalonGuy

[@24sar24]

You're really helping me through cosmetology school! my first male haircut I did (it was his first time leaving his barber in 20 years and he had an important job interview) I FORGOT TO PUT A GUARD ON and shaved a big bald spot out of his shoulder length hair. I ran to the bathroom and cried while my teacher finished the cut. Ever since then I am TERRIFIED to pick up the clippers. But you're helping me so thank you :)

[@TheSalonGuy]

Aw good to know I'm helping!!!

[@Soshi1013]

:)

[@amandawalker1196]

Ooooh nooo!!!!! That’s so sad for you, but I would put that on him. Why would he leave someone he knows can cut his hair right before an important interview and better than that, why did he go to a school??? 😂 😂😂 hope you’re still not afraid of clippers. They’re so fun.

[@ricsmith6464]

I actually learned something here and cut my own hair today. Turned out great, much better than hacking away and shaving it all off like I usually do after failing, lol. The comb trick is hard to do on myself, but I found that using a large, thin, flexible cardboard (such as from a cereal box) was easier to orient and move around than a small comb. Plus you can hold it in place to keep from cutting the top.

[@Jenthay]

I'll say this. I've never watched any of your videos before but just from watching this one I learned so much. It doesn't matter what the comments section says. At the end of the day your salon wouldn't be where it was if you weren't excellent with what you do. I love the video! Also some people don't understand customer demand which is why 80% of businesses go under. keep up the great work!!

[@TheSalonGuy]

+Jen bear92 (Jenbear92) thank you!!!!! I have over 1k more vids. Please subscribe!

[@Jenthay]

TheSalonGuy I will. Keep making great videos

[@RB-dx6jh]

@thesalonguy- thank you so much for doing a step by step instructional video for a disconnected clipper cut. I have always blended mine but many guys want this cut. This one seemed symmetrical so i can totally replicate. I love everything about how you broke this down so even non-pros can connect with these tecniques. F these haters and their comments. You rock and did a really amazing clean cut. You look and sound amazing- bravo! 👌

[@andie9589]

The kid may have beautiful hair but he doesn’t have one thing that Rob has-that adorable chuckle!

[@cgomez9693]

I'm currently a cosmetology student & I found this video SO HELPFUL! Thanks so much for making this step by step video. You're amazing, keep it up! 😊👌🏼

[@TheSalonGuy]

Yaaaaaaay

[@samuelalbritton2224]

These step by step videos are absolutely amazing. If you can keep doing the step by step videos, I would appreciate it. You the man!

[@dennisoverholts8396]

Thanks for adding eyebrows so many young men wont trim them and it is a nice final touch as well with ear hair for older gentlemen as well.

[@TheSalonGuy]

Glad you liked that bit Dennis!!

[@andreaelliott5142]

I use a comb to hold emm (up the eye brow hairs), then just zip across with my trimmers. Works really fast. Also, I use edge of trimmers and shape the brows and Cleaning up between them. I also trim the perimeter of the ears. With just the right lighting, you can set them on anything in their mid 20's up.

Fades are so much better than undercuts

[@chrisgarcia6015]

Who’s watching during quarantine ?

[@mylesisatree4612]

He hearted a comment 4 years later💀

[@SB-ox7wl]

It is a fade, but as Stephen said he didn't want anything too short, He wanted to keep an undercut look towards this haircut, Great cut mate !

[@TheSalonGuy]

+S. Productions fiiiiiiiiinally someone who gets it lol thx man

[@edisone1]

Mr.SalonGuy explains what he's doing & why, making his videos extra informative. Thanks

[@oziprime5162]

now this is a video, not those 30 second "videos"

[@TheSalonGuy]

Gotchu

[@amandawalker1196]

Positive: I think he does a great job at explaining what he’s doing and is very thorough. The video quality is good and the sound is good. Not so positive: those were blades not guards. There is a huge difference. And if you use guards, you can cut the time in half by “skip guarding” Last, Why was he not cleaned up with trimmers😫 that makes alllll the difference in how clean and professional a cut looks.

[@SodASierraMist]

I've always had a burning passion to do hair (so happy to be a licensed professional 🙌) & watching your videos not only adds fuel to my fire, it throws it on there. Thank you for sharing!!

[@TheSalonGuy]

Aw thx gorgeous

[@SodASierraMist]

+TheSalonGuy you're welcome!!

17:00 when youre trying to bullshit your way out of a essay

[@cicidal9876]

17:30 from cutting hair to doing his eyebrows ?? waahht hah

[@millville444]

i wish my hair disconnected the way rob's does. parting his hair seems so incredibly easy, beautiful hair. no homo

[@yootoob4516]

I like this haircut on him -- he looks very sleek and classic. I have prominent ears. A friend once joked, "Close the doors on your head before you hurt somebody!"

[@inthekingdom1996]

It came out good. Im so glad i seitched to this style of cut. I even started cutting my own hair. Better in summer heat and i can alter it whenever i want. I still have to see a professional but i love not paying all the time

[@andrewpancroft3284]

While I would never attempt to cut my hair myself, I always enjoy watching your videos...the breakdown of the process in nice to see!!! Solid Work!!

[@jslavabakan6330]

oh and did he mention that rob has really really good hair?

[@percyvalera1593]

Jslav Abakan 😂

[@emw5]

Jslav Abakan Hello. Stephen is an ARTIST. What artist doesn't get excited about their muse? He is passionate. Designers, architects, composers etc. 💖👏

[@beefcouch-s6u]

Nah I didn’t hear him say that

[@chxclot5857]

19:16 😂🤣

[@greekfire7980]

Actually, he did.

[@samuelalbritton2224]

I just read a few of the comments. People are dicks. Keep up the solid work. From watching your videos, I now cut about three guy cuts a day. I've been an apprentice for around three months now. I just wanted to say thanks for inspiring me and helping me make some money. Every time I fail on a cut or don't quite get a blend right, I come back and watch about ten cuts from your channel. Keep on keeping on.

[@TheSalonGuy]

+Samuel albritton this literally made my life man thank you

[@denisciupei]

as a barber this video hurts my eyes

[@calebgallardo9405]

This guy does the best cleanest haircuts I've ever seen

[@JoseRivera-te9hw]

Caleb Gallardo He still has some lines left to go back to blend, but Steven clearly has a lot of talent. Therefore, he can only go further.

[@TheHelltribute]

Just want to say you're a god. Too bad I live so far to have your services and my country taxes would just triplicate the cost of your top products for me. But even so, I would just to congratulate you for you awesome work and patience with sharing your knowledge with us. And keep in mind that many people around the world are watching your videos, because you're awesome. You deserve so much more viewers and subscribers. Don't give on your work!

[@howfunisthis6880]

Great job Salon Guy! Finally a barber/stylist who is not ghetto and can speak properly!

[@keithh2846]

I always love your work, but this is exceptional. Awesome haircut! Thank you for sharing with us and thank your model.

[@julieisobellehauge8884]

as a hairdresser student these videos are so helpful and fun to watch

Nooooo way that means so much thank u

[@jamesfarmer752]

More Rob! Great, thick hair. Excellent haircut.

[@winnie.the.vvitch]

Cosmetologist here and I'm definitely not afraid to use clippers. I'm more afraid of women's cuts and color. I stick to mens hair and love it.

[@playwithshark6297]

My friend wanted me to do fade in his hair I didn't know how to do it then I found you and this made me a pro at it

[@AnONYMOUS-qx7wb]

I have been a hairstylist for 50 years nervous about doing fades thank you for this video. I do them but not with confidence excellent video thank you

[@TheSalonGuy]

+A nONYMOUS great to hear thx!!

[@anjagroe1079]

Ich liebe das Video da es sehr entspannend ist weil ich mir das anschaue und vorstelle ich bekomme die Frisur. Habe Jedesmal Gänsehaut bei den video weil ich gerne bei Frisur bin und mir am Kopf kämen und schneiden und stylen lasse.ich schneide momentan mir die haare selber mit haar schneide Maschine selber aber genieße es das Video anzuschauen trotzdem ....Einmal bin ich danach eingeschlafen. 👍👍👍

[@racheljadehart8433]

If this is for professionals you should use words like occipital bone and parietal ridge. and you should also show them about swirls (cow licks) and hair movement. Also you should ask the client which side his part is or how he likes it.. and you should also say I am going to trim your eyebrows..... some people don't like it but if you can get them to trust you they will love the clean look of it.

[@Skrtskrt_]

Rachel Jade Hart your hair has a natural parting he probably just goes with that

[@logunscott]

i wish if i can find a person as good as you ! nice work!

[@hairmaster22]

Thanks for the videos. We watch them at our school and they help us a lot! :)

[@TheSalonGuy]

Awesome good to hear!!!!

[@sterlingbarbers9580]

I am a barber and and these cuts have new names but really are just cuts from before with little differences. When i do my tapers, I start with the bigger attachment and work my way down to 1 or zero on the bottom, by neck. That way I have not line. I am going to try your way also. My dad who was barber and he had one of those clippers, he used to cut the military hair about all the same, Butch , crew cut, flat tops (not military ) back in the 1950's. A man came in nice thick wavy hair he wanted a undercut with the line in for the part. I did not know that name, he showed me a picture on his phone. Someone else called it a *comb over* which was the name we cut the hair for old men trying to hide the bald on top! Basically this is just a regular man's haircut from the 1960's, 70;s before the long hair or a business man cut. Except it is higher on sides. Actually barbers did not know how to layer until Sassoon cuts or Paul Mitchell cuts came in. Before that cuts were like this cut high tapers and very long on top, but combed to side. Oh like in 1930's, 40;s style. Look at old actors on the movies, how the hair was. Interesting the more we change the more we stay the same.

[@JoseRivera-te9hw]

Sterling Barbers Good to know, but he still needs to go back and clean up the fade a little. He clearly is very skilled at what he does though. Also, how do you deal with people who are monsters on the Internet, and don't know how to give clean, constructive criticism?

[@sirgold3412]

you are at my top 3 best hairstylers on youtube

[@5urg3x]

Damn I wish I had you as my stylist.

[@117Burn]

I came to watch this guy use an entirely different type of clipper One where you switch the blade to a thicker blade instead of a guard Also his scissor switching skills are off The charts

[@kathryn5859]

I think you did a awesome job on this cut. good job!!!

[@TheSalonGuy]

+Katie Hughes thx gorgeous

[@kathryn5859]

[@MissNae_]

Rob is a cutie!! lol .. Great cut and style, I like the techniques that you used. I also appreciate, that you trimmed Rob's eyebrows, a lot of men think it's "feminine".. But caring about your appearance should be something that both men & women value.

[@TheSalonGuy]

+Ladi Nae thx for the nice feedback and yes I agree

[@motivetomurder1168]

Great video, I’ve learned more from these videos that I did at college. Love them.

[@TalFulano_]

His hair is perfect. Even the back of his head is completely filled by hair.

[@TheSalonGuy]

Thanks

[@juandenz2008]

Thanks for the lesson ! One other question I have is I notice some people would start with say the 3 guard take it right up. Then work there way down using shorter guards. However others go the opposite way, starting with the shorter guards and working there way up. Is it just a preference or are there significant advantages to one approach ? Thanks.

[@TheSalonGuy]

juandenz2008 preference

[@mtl4839]

This video is really helpful to a newbie cuter. I use the tippers to help too. They keep me away from cutting too short. Hope I can do haircut without them soon. The upcut is the hardest part for me my husband's hair is heavy. It is hard for me to hold the hair.

[@TheSalonGuy]

+queendragin thank youuuuuu

[@adampandit4326]

+Rory Fisher I think it's because the model has thin hair that sticks straight out. I also have thin hair so fades are hardly noticeable. fades are better for thicker hair that grows down on the sides

[@howfunisthis6880]

Rory Fisher If you need clipper attachments you aren't a barber.

[@howfunisthis6880]

Rory Yes you can.

[@rliy001]

His face shape is reaally not suited for this hair style i feel

[@mysoullivesformusic1]

how do you know that that's not what he wanted?

[@rliy001]

Alex Pena we dont

[@OMFGLOLROTFLWTF]

I mean obviously a lean sharp face is suited for every hairstyle and a rounder face isn't as much but he really does have good hair in where it disconnects, hairline, thickness, etc. i feel like for most hairstyles you can say a similar thing just because of the face. i personally think it looks fine

[@MiguelHernandez-vo3nh]

Ruch ya he has that fat boy face. Not really aesthetic.

[@modernwarrior24]

@@MiguelHernandez-vo3nh You guys are assholes bruh 😂

[@bakore]

Rob has really cute ears. This cut shows them off nicely. I guess with his thick hair almost all haircuts are doable for him. How often should a guy go to the salon to maintain this haircut?

[@Dark7ify]

its not a fade

[@exienikki3142]

i dnt think its "hate" more like its nah traditional fade. like wat black ppl wud consider a fade. but i learned sumthn all in all. great vid

[@helenaback2978]

no hun its not a fade hair professionals with even basic barbering skills would consider black white or green

[@exienikki3142]

Helena Back great

[@abrahambuell3229]

For a professional with almost 500k subs, he should be more than capable of taking care of the making even and symmetrical guidelines, and taking out the heavy dark spots on the finished look. I'm not hating but instead frustrated that he's teaching people that this is what your finished haircut should look like when this is only halfway finished. Another thing, we get it, he likes undercuts. Improve your content and add variety because every video looks about the same.
