can i just use the clippers instead of the trimmer for the last step?

[@luismartin5325]

Did you use the number one clip with the lever openednor closed for the 3rd step after using the #2? In the video you say you had it in the long setting but your description box says it was in the short setting like the #2? Please lmk :)

Tips for Clips - Haircutting y’all aren’t shipping until April 30?

[@TipsforClips]

Jonathan Rios Navarro, waiting on the shipment from manufacturer. Once they’re in, I’ll ship them! April 30 is the latest.

[@sharonlee3653]

Luis Martin same thoughts. And on the video you he was showing the trimmer as short setting (opened) then long setting (closed)? It’s very misleading

[@klutch...]

Finally a video that simplifies how to do a fade. All these other barbers on KZbin talk too much and are redundant. They make it look complicated for no reason

[@showgun8385]

You're right. This guy makes it look really easy and he doesn't overdramatize it. 3-4 simple fades and thats it.

[@paksallion]

Balls Deep its always been this easy. im suprised ive been using this method on my own hair for donkey years and im 100% sure i found this technique on youtube over 10 years ago lol

[@Chmpgnkryssy]

Ive been a stylist that has worked with barbers for like 14 yrs and I must say, theyre the most dramatic ppl I know! 😂 Everything is literally a saga with them! They carry on so much! I guess its apart of how they make their money by giving off the illusion that theyre really doing something!😆 Especially black barbers!😂

[@coolionesy]

@@Chmpgnkryssy HAHA XD

[@thesuccessfulbarber]

@@Chmpgnkryssy I'm a barber that owns a shop and skin fades are the least profitable cut/customer. I avoid them as much as i can. I do 3 regular cuts and make 70$ an hour while my coworkers sweat through a fade and lineup for 18$ an hour

[@iconimous]

bro, you have the best clips about haircuts. 99% of other videos on yt are made to make you think that is rocket science, they use 47 numbers and techniques when doing a simple fade. I don't know what is wrong with the. But i want to say THANK YOU FOR POSTING THIS VIDEO, i like that you keep everything simple. I have seen 1hr videos for a simple fade....nobody want to spend an hour on that chair...this is just mad.

I agree! Do you cut your own hair in this way? That's what I'm planning to do but not shure if it works :-/

[@TipsforClips]

Bernhard Zufall, you can definitely cut your own hair like this but it will be harder than cutting someone else's hair. It's important you have a good three-way mirror that allows you to see all angles as you cut. Good luck!

[@stevenmichael9429]

Tips for Clips thank you man. Followed your tutorial technique and did a really nice fade on my hair. Feeling really good right now. Used a Wahl magic clippers. Really good clipper. Can you do a tutorial for just a two level haircut. Like instead of a 0 at the bottom, start with like a .5 or a 1. So it's not a bald fade. Will look out for your video if you do. Keep up the great work. Much respect.

[@kingkdot9789]

Handsome Dude I cut my hair before with a clipper that didn’t have a lever and it was hard. It still came out nice. You have to do it and not stress about ruining your hair and you’ll learn more while you cut ur hair.

[@JOEYBURNEM]

@@TipsforClips I'm a little confused. Why did you go over the first level(# 1 Guard open) in the open position no guard. 2:06 I understand you lightened the trimmer line but other than that im confused. Couldn't you have just faded out the trimmer line and the #2 line. I apologize in advance if this is a stupid question but I like this technique and I'd like to truly understand it

[@paulmaloney2383]

I have watched many videos on fades and learn something new from each one but somehow he seems to explain the technique in a methodical and simple way

[@shannonrupright1682]

Like every other comment here im going to have to agree here and say that the way you actually articulate to us what you are doing and why, and the footage of your steps, make the best fade tutorial that there is on KZbin. We've all watched countless fade tutorials yet we keep looking because we aren't confident we have all the info. This vid just put an end to that 😄

[@TipsforClips]

Shannon Rupright, I really appreciate your comment!

[@TByers-u6g]

Been using this video to cut my own hair since Covid. I use a front and back mirror so I can see what I am doing. I find it’s simpler to do step 3 before step 2, as my hair is not as thick as the model, so the upper line is more visible, if I do step 3, then go back and do step 2. If my hair on top is too long, then I run a #8 through the top of my hair. If any of the lines are still noticeable, wear a hat for 2 days! After 2 days of hair-growth any imperfections are no longer visible. Perfect no scissor haircut!

[@BobaDavis]

Great tutorial! You can use this technique, regardless of what level you start at. The best part about skipping the guard immediately about your lowest level is that you are setting in the everything above, allowing you to dictate how long or short you want the blend at the bottom of the fade to be, without having made the mistake of going too high up.

[@TipsforClips]

BobaDavis, thanks!

[@Ali-gm9rg]

Basically what he means guys is zero out the bottom is the first step then blend the side hair that's left with a 2 then get your 1 and create a line oround the head then take off your guard and put your clipper to 0,5 and go around again then after that take 1 and push the lever so it becomes 1,5 and remove the upper line and then after all that go back down to middle lever and flick around the bottom line so it removes some lines and then after that put your clipper to 0 and remove some lines with the corner of the blade and then do the shape up, it's all about the tactics and how you cut I suggest you guys to watch the barber table, he tells you about the barber techniques.

Great video but I’m slightly confused as to why you used the 1 guard on the closed setting to blend the line between the 1.5 and the 2 as the 1 guard closed cuts shorter than the 1.5? Excellent tips otherwise 👍

[@tr3slech3s]

Conor Power I was thinking same thing. I believe that was a 2 guard closed so it’s basically a 1 1/2 guard or a bit shorter maybe. Didn’t kill the line just lightened it up.

[@smichael01810]

Great job explaining your system. I'm a Master Barber with 36 years behind the chair. I never regret a minute of it. I love my career. I'm also an educator and one of the things I'm trying to accomplish within my industry is a "common language". Doctors have it, Attorneys have it, Accountants have it but the hair industry does not when it comes to technical training. When you were talking about your clipper settings, you referred to them as "long setting" and "short setting". Why not include what they're really referred to by seasoned barbers? Open and Closed blades, half-open, etc. I just think that it elevates an educators' credibility. Just a suggestion, pal. I just liked and followed your page. Love your work!

[@TipsforClips]

Steven Michael, I really appreciate your comments and encouragement! You're certainly right, and a common language among barbers is really helpful. The reason I occasionally switch the language is so that the explanations are accessible to beginners also. I have a video out on barber terminology, where I try to go through the different terms used for the same technique. You'll also notice that in a number of my videos, in a single step I'll say two or three of the names, say, for the guards or the lengths. It's all for more appeal, since I assume that some beginners may not understand all of the terminology other videos out there present. In any case, I'll keep your advice in mind--I agree. Many thanks!

João Neto, wow looks like I misspoke! Can't believe 12,000 people viewed without making that comment! I meant to say I used the 1 (short) first then then the 1.5 (long) to fade between the 1 and the 2. That's what I'm doing in the video, but in my voiceover explanation, I totally mixed it up! I'll be sure to release a video that fixes that. Thanks again for noticing.

[@brentcereal4487]

HAHA i noticed that too and scrolled through the comments to see if i was misreading it or not :) . I write guard steps on paper because thats how i learn but when i saw the one blending above 1 and 1/2 and 2 i tried drawing it so many different ways to see how it would blend like it did in the video

[@TipsforClips]

Tony Fetuccini, I don’t use the 1.5. What I refer to as the 1.5 is actually a 1 Guard in the opened position. So, you don’t need a 1.5 guard

Here's the the cheat sheet I made to go back and forth to when cutting: Short setting = lever closest to blade Long setting = lever furthest to blade Med setting = mid way Start with trimmer 0 Right under corner to ball of head #2 short setting (1:01) Cut up to top hair #1 long setting (1:26) Cut band around head (about thumb wide) No clip; long setting (2:06) Cut band up to just under next line using "Up and out/Grazing technique" -- start close then swipe cut away from head *Goal is to lighten up harshness of bald below (0) not fade yet* #1 short setting (2:50) Fade second/upper line (above band) with "Up and out/Grazing technique" No clip; med setting (3:30) Fade first/lower line (below band) with bald area with "Up and out/Grazing technique" no more than half an inch up *Lower line with still be somewhat visible here* No clip; short setting (4:26) Fade first/lower line with (below band) with “CORNER up and out/grazing technique” -- only use one CORNER of blade with start close then swipe cut away from head *Lower line may still be somewhat visible here* Trimmer (5:26) Fade first/lower line with (below band) unblended areas with “CORNER up and out/grazing technique” *Pull skin taught with thumb to help cut closer Disinfectant And done! Hyrdogen Peroxide or rubbing alcohol

Good job! By far this was the easiest tutorial I’ve seen!!!

[@emmae6144]

BEST FADE EVER DUDE!!!!! great timing and is that fin cattertons client youre cutting? ;)

[@Bigdub714]

Thank you brother, this is the best video I've seen for a fast simple fade. Being that I'm not a barber and cut my own hair this by far is the most helpful technique. Thanks

[@TipsforClips]

bigwillystyles, really glad to hear that. My pleasure

Tips for Clips - Haircutting I'm still having troubles with the line at the bottom but I'm sure with time ill get there. Keep up the good work maybe u can show a tutorial on how to do it on your own.

[@chrisvon3225]

Try using a cape so that the client doesn't have all the hair on them and a neck duster, the clean the better client will appreciate that

[@TomekinaOfa]

Christopher Alfaro but you know how to fade now right

[@ceasarjones2936]

He's prolly cutting his friends hair and it looks like its in his kitchen. So just shut up

[@ramazanacar5630]

Just shut the f XXX with you cap

Zain Rizvi damn that's his dad dude looks younger than me and I'm 28 haha

[@benp5528]

Definitely one of the best fade vids ive seen thanks guys

[@alexandersandino1988]

The “long” setting for that specific clipper you are using equals to a 1. May confuse a lot of people.

[@rizla0683]

yeh i thought that didn't sound correct. So step 3 should be guard 1 on closed setting not "long" i.e it should be cutting at a number 1 not 1.5 which is what you'd get on the long setting

[@alexandersandino1988]

rizla0683 Eventually the higher you go the more you want to keep on opening (longer setting) blade. So you can start with the number 1 short and as you go up you start to open it which by the time it’s fully open (long setting) it’ll equal to a #2. Which will blend right in with the #2 guard closed. The comment was intended for the people who use the wahl system. You see andis clippers most of them. Open all the way up to a 1 (long setting.) while most of the Wahl clippers open up to a 0.5 (or half) (long setting).

Thank you so much for the tips, fade game has become top of the line

When you make a video can you put in the description What size you use in order please

[@TipsforClips]

Vital Fortune sure, I did for a lot of them but forgot for this one. Thanks for bringing it to my attention

[@TipsforClips]

Vital Fortune, I just added the description. Hope it helps!

Tips for Clips - Haircutting I appreciate it, thank you

[@bobmarley6161]

I swear this is the best fade video ever. Watching this I started doing my own hair fades every 2 weeks and only going to barber every 6 weeks or so. Thanks bro very much appreciated.

[@abdulmajeed5290]

for everyone here. turn on the captions as he says wrong stuff and corrects himself using the caption

[@findmeahandle]

Cheers man! I messed up coz I followed when he misspoke and said 1 on long setting and the 1 on short setting to blend between 1.5 and 2! Knew it didnt make sense

[@llcooll7561]

@@findmeahandle i turned on captions but it still says 1 on the short setting to knock out the 1.5/2 line. Do i need to use 1 on the long setting to knock it out?

[@findmeahandle]

@@llcooll7561 at 3:05 he says 1 on short to blend between 1 and 2. But he meant put it on 1 long. Which is equivalent to 1.5. Which makes sense. 1.5 to blend between 1 and 2 line

[@jaxg7718]

A++ video! And I've watched countless. My poor child can attest. Bout to go all in for fade attempt 38!

[@rjones9472]

I love this video... but damn my man couldn’t get a cape or anything so all the hair not falling on him?😂😂😂🤷🏾‍♂️
