[@MrRedrum1121]

Great tips and good reminders on doing line ups. thanks

[@ph1ogic]

1. pressing too hard 2. negative gapping 3. incorrect angling 4. creating lines without references 5. not brushing/combing 6. lining up unevenly 7. pushing back hairlines 8. lining up rounded corners 9. excessive cutting until next time future barbers!

[@garykitt7252]

It's refreshing to see a brother speak publicly without saying the word "uh" in every sentence. Your words were well placed and thought out. Keep up the good work, and thanks for the tips.

[@CeeSparks]

Obama does it, quite often. Yet speaks very intelligently

[@sp9781]

Refreshing to hear a well spoken brother. I agree there is no 'uh' nor 'uhm' or 'you know what I'm sayin' and frequent use of slangs. He sounds intelligent and his message is clear and easy to understand.

[@edwin99901]

Do you not notice all the edited cuts in the video? Why do you think that is?

[@candytoocool]

Your zero-gapping advice is spot on. There is a lot of misinformation out there. I followed another video and adjusted my blades with no space, tested it on my arm, and it cut me immediately. I readjusted the cutting blade to slightly below and now they are perfect... cutting sharp enough with no nicks.

[@melb7462]

Literally have 7 cuts on my hand lmao

[@everettwhite9874]

New barbers try to get crisp lineups and understand the term zero-gap meaning that the cutting blade and the still blades are level. They shouldn’t be and we used proved this by putting shaving cream on inflated ballons and asked students to create a front hairline design on the surface of the ballon with their zero-gapped trimmers and clippers. After they wiped the shaving cream off their faces they understood what their clients feel. That’s a lot less painful than cutting your arm but it’s a similar result. I hope others new barbers read your comment. Best wishes… 💈❤️

[@patrickm8443]

I like what you said about perspective, “You have to constantly change it to make sure the moves you made were the right moves to make”. Can apply that to both barbering and life, a lot of jewels dropped here. Thank you 👌🏾

[@juliolooks1075]

Perspective! Helped me the most since the client does usually look at me like “did you just mess up?” so i was kinda of insecure of stepping back looking from different angles once the client was walking away i noticed i could’ve done a better job if I had only walked around the head looking for different perspective. And also excessive brushing a lil ocd in my case. Thank you

[@Nikomairi]

This is so valuable. Everyone who cuts new and old should be watching this 👍🏼

[@willievann331]

Thanks bro!!!! The reference points and the finger under the clippers helped 1000%. Thanks again and Peace and blessing!!!!!!

[@wshennessy6835]

Always been interested in cutting hair. I figured I'd learn on my own son head so i took it KZbin before actually ever going in on him just so i can see how to go about it correctly, safely & not leaving my kid bogus lol. Ive seen alot of tutorials weeks on weeks worth & only up until i came across some of your videos did i feel comfortable enough watching em bc i really do feel like im taking something away from each video & learning clearly. I am now binge watching every video you ever made lol & i feel confident in my progressing barber talents 😊

I need to start cutting my own hair. Going to different barbers a week have my headline shaped like a dimond 😫

[@gerraldlevingston1729]

Yea man that can happen. I've been cutting my own hair since the age of 21 and I'm 33. You will need 2 important things...Patience and Confidence because not having those things in your mind is going to cause you to be afraid to try it which will definitely cause you to make many errors

I’m halfway through barber college getting my barbers degree and I absolutely love this I stumbled on this I subscribed and I will be definitely watching your videos thank you

[@naturalNIBS]

Future barber here. Thanks very much!!! Changing perspective and angling really helped me out. I realized changing perspective is something I fail to do and I think that’s where my hairlines go left!!! 🎉❤❤

[@AntonioSmith-zk4ty]

Also glance away from ur cut every 30 seconds. I remember before I went to barber school I thought every barber just liked looking at everybody when it fact it's a technique so you won't develop tunnel vision. We were taught if we run into an obstacle turn around drop ur comb in the barbercide, clean off your clippers, retrieve your comb then turn back to the cut. Trust me it works. Quick restart now it's fresh to you and you will definitely see your problem areas. Wish u all success!

[@delsters4]

Appreciate the detail you go into explaining the rights and wrong of a proper lineup. Too many barbers go ahead and do something without truly understanding why things need to be a certain way. Wish i found your page earlier, dope stuff

[@KevvThaw]

you said it bro. It's important to know what to do and what not to do to efficiently understand why you do.

[@briansmith6551]

You do an EXCELLENT job bro with your technical & communication skills!! Do you have a video that you discuss point 4 (creating lines with reference points)? Thanks again for sharing your knowledge It is very inspirational to see your growth / journey! Many continued blessings to you!!

I don't have one in detail on the channel. I divulge in the barber's system. explaining the process of doing things.

So now I'm in that stage in life of a change in things and want to start cutting hair for a business. I'm south of Colorado where have Fort Lewis College and there is not alot of barbers but one or two that cut the black athletes here so I wanted to change that look at class to take and get it moving forward.
