I stop taking professional barbers opinions on tools seriously once they sign brand/collab deals.. not one time did you mention how insanely overpriced these clippers are because of the metal back they added to the clipper.. Even the other instincts are overpriced with how loud they are and the ridiculous amount of vibration.. Brands like Wahl and even Babyliss who has a major imprint on the game has most of their tools reasonably priced

[@desmondmitchell5602]

WORD !!!

[@charlesleeray1873]

[@GAMMASTYLECRAFTPRO]

Fair enough brotha. The one thing we'll say about the Metal Instinct the is the value it provides. Its an investment in a luxury tool that performs as such. We added the metal back to absorb vibration and noise. We only did the back piece so the clipper isn't too heavy. The circuitry and battery have been upgraded to address the issues from the Original Instinct Clipper. But most importantly, this tool should be saving you time in the shop because it cuts so well. You don't need to go over the same spot multiple times, especially with bulk. When you can save time in the shop, that allows you to cut more heads and make more money. Can you say your Wahl or Babyliss clipper cuts bulk faster than the Instinct? We'll take that bet.

How do you zero gap the trimmers

[@massterrbarber]

I can’t wait till June 1 when they drop I’m addicted to Clippers what can I say I want the technology is just exclusive. I’m gonna get back to the video and I know it’s gonna be nice contact..

I need that cap how much $ were can I buy it???

[@mikedog5289]

The new instinct clippers do look nice that is the new lids love the white

[@cityreflections]

Just got the clippers!! bro thats true, they are strong !! i was tripping out doing my fade today lol i was like god dammmn lol

[@user-dq5qx1hd2j]

300 is crazy bro get at sc and tellem get it together i love my instinct but damn 300 for the exact same thing is not kool

[@smittylamar]

Cant wait to get some

[@jameskidd61]

The Clipper is awesome the only complaint is on the trimmer love the x pro blade but not the wide version that’s on the trimmer when going around behind the ear so I’m going to swap it out to the other x pro version which is not a big deal but they are both awesome

[@mpzairsoft9142]

Overpriced but I still bought them. I love how they feel in hand and how small they’re. I have a small hand so I had to get them

[@Wendolushart]

Would you be able to talk to Stylecraft about changing upcoming tools, even present tool releases to USB C. As you know it's a pain even having to have a micro USB cord around when everything else is USB C. As much as I love all my stylecraft tools a Centrelink towards my red by KISS tools when I travel because of the USBC charging. 😢

[@YouTubeBarberAcademy]

Yes, I agree with you and they are working on making that move towards a lot of their newer stuff. There’s just going to be a little bit of growing pains on the way.

[@sheldonjones3921]

Get an adaptor or stay away from SC. They’re so over priced it’s a joke. This clipper is no better what so ever except a metal body? Also the instinct X, what’s the point of having both.

[@jairo7874]

Is there any plans on n releasing the zero gap tool to sell by itself?

[@YouTubeBarberAcademy]

Not sure on that but I could ask

[@romesrepublic]

Do the old lids still fit? I like them better. Especially the blue one.

[@YouTubeBarberAcademy]

Yes

[@jameskidd61]

I just ordered the SC metal instinct clipper and trimmer for my wife / barber she’s spoiled slightly lol I trust your opinion been a subscriber for quite a while ❤

[@jameskidd61]

@@Nex_gen04 they may not be gapped properly the moving blade should not come out past the still blade there are several videos on how to do it properly I learned by using a mirror and test them out if not right try again my near sighted self can get it first try now if I wear my reading glasses lol

Decibels?

[@user-cl8my6sm3u]

From your experience, which trimmer has the closest cut 0mm?

[@YouTubeBarberAcademy]

Most trimmers are going to cut one zero gapped probably a little shorter than .017 mm that would technically be considered 5 zeros

[@craigsmith9366]

Good for you bro!!!

[@YouTubeBarberAcademy]

Appreciate it

[@kingdevine7374]

Wonder if the blade gets hit as other reviews say, did they change that?

[@YouTubeBarberAcademy]

Not at all, I’ve cut with them a lot

[@kingdevine7374]

@@KZbinBarberAcademy thx.. I look t myself as still an inexperienced baber. I have been cutting mainly with fast feed, masters and magic clips, trimmers anis gtx, if you had to suggest a clipper and trimmer line up what woul it be one trimmer one clipper (I have been interested in the detachable blades). I recently bought the saber precision,haven't used it yet . Thanks for advice.

[@desmondmitchell5602]

Interesting idea

[@DAHAIRLINEHERO]

I hate that these clippers are so much man. I really need and want them. If you want do donate any equipment you don’t use want or need anymore please let me know. I’m trying to change my life from the street I’m self taught and trying to goto school.

[@YouTubeBarberAcademy]

i know they are expensive but they are very premium. Use what you have until you can get some clients going.

[@JohnnyLopez-ev3ge]

300 for an adjustabe...now we're in detachable prices. these dudes are smoking crack on their pricing. hard pass.

[@YouTubeBarberAcademy]

I know not everybody will be able to afford this. It’s all good that’s why we offer so many different options.

[@youclement8124]

Stylecraft or the brand pretending to be Apple, wanting to significantly increase their prices in order to create hype around their products. What an overconfidence for such a young brand and having experienced so many youthful problems/flaws… and ESPECIALLY with so much concurrence now. Goodbye Stylecraft 🥴👋🏻
