This shit crazy… I’m 26, I’ve been cutting hair since I was 13 with the same clippers and just now figuring out this information 😅… granted I never went to school for this. But I’ve always wondered why it took me so long/ much effort to get my fades right… Now I know this, my fades about to be outta this world🙏🏽 Thanks fam

Dang sure did leave that out lol

[@davidsee3566]

Hey there Sean, love your videos and content. The education here is incredible, especially for new barbers and for those that like to experiment to see what works best for them! I personally like to have all three blades at my station faper, taper & fade blades. I have yet to try the Babyliss wedge blades. Plan on trying those next.

Yeah they all have their place! Wedge is def my least favorite you aren’t missing out!

They are all capable of doing a haircut but some do different things better than others and can help improve your haircutting!

Hey Sean! I hope you see this - I appreciate all of your help and guidance man, you've been monumental in my barbering journey. Quick question - do you prefer the babyliss graphite taper blade over the DLC titanium, or would you go either way?

[@LeviCutz]

Got the 'ole BEAST MODE OUT.

[@Seancutshair]

Out the grave!

[@arthurstepanyan100]

Great video bro! I was wondering, how often do you have to change the regular (taper blade) &/or cutting blade on the x-ergos and how much use on a scale of 1-10 do you put into that blade? (Asking bcause the gammaplus site says they recommend changing the dlc fusion blade every 1-4 months) but says nothing on the other blades, and I'm looking to get the regular taper blade.

[@Seancutshair]

Honestly I don’t hardly ever change blades. I switch clippers often so don’t notice it being an issue. I’d follow their recommendation and I’d imagine it’s the same for all their blades

Either one. The fusion is my go to now but haven’t put it on any wahls. The ole faithful 1006 always did me fine 👌🏻

[@jt2475]

I tried the faper blade and really wanted to like and it seems everyone is making that style lately but I like the way taper blades fade more. I use the faper with a ceramic staggertooth blade to blend out my last line but that’s it.

One question so original corded Andis masters I have the blade on my JRL now so that’s a fade blade ? Does the masters make a taper blade or is a master blade a masters blade ? I see they have different master options I see #22 and #28 for replacement options. Let me know your insight please. I will follow what you tell me to do I base what I do mostly off you brotha.

I don’t know a ton about andis but they do make a taper blade. The 22 and 28 is how many teeth there are on the blade

@@Seancutshair WHAT

[@lukecorker1319]

Awesome info man. Do you think a clipper with the fusion blade works alongside a clipper with a taper blade better with or without the stretch bracket on the fusion blade? Have always used a fade blade but I’m planning on throwing a taper blade on my magics and a fusion on my gamma boosted, not sure whether to use stretch bracket or not on the boosted

[@Seancutshair]

Fusion with the stretch gives the open closer to a taper blade and closed like a fade

[@lukecorker1319]

Not quite as open as a taper though? Can you still work under the taper with fusion with stretch?

[@isolatedpsycho8782]

What are the best guards for the gamma+ boosted

[@BEARDED_VATO]

That fusion blade seems similar to the wedge blade that came on my lopros

[@Seancutshair]

I wouldn’t say fusion is like the wedge. It’s more like a fade blade with the grooves from a taper blade

[@MirchoTheBarber]

Best taper blade for wahl ? Im looking at babyliss blades looks a bit thinner than the old wahl taper blades. Does gamma taper fit wahls?

[@Seancutshair]

Wahl 1006

[@SleepyJoe408]

So pretty much if I have a fade blade , I really don’t need a “faper” right? I might as well get me a clipper that has a taper blade right? A fade blade is mainly to knock off that hard line created with the trimmer right?

[@Seancutshair]

Yes you nailed it

[@faramarzghanbari]

Tnx❤❤

[@UNKNOWN-ou3pg]

Will the fade blade also rattle the guards if zero gapped or just the taper blade ?? Wanting to switch to a fade blade on my pair as that’s my preference but want to be able to zero gap them all the way without a problem as I feel that’s the best advantage of them is they cut so close zero gapped which lets me get a super clean blend . Also Very informative straight to the point video🔥

[@Seancutshair]

Anything zero gapped has the potential to rattle guards

[@d3arb0rns]

I just replaced my fade blade with the taper blade but every time I tighten it down the blades moves outward (babyliss clipper). Any suggestions???

[@Seancutshair]

Just have to hold it in place real solid when you tighten it

[@camjo6397]

Can you mix and match the top and bottom of blades? I want two different colors so I can see where the actual cutting blade is. I just started cutting so it’s hard to see where the cutting blade is when the lever is open. That white cutting blade you have is probably the best for contrast on dark hair right? Can I put that under my gold babyliss pro wedge blade?

[@Seancutshair]

It depends some blades are interchangeable but not all. Would just have to try

[@camjo6397]

what if you put the stretch bracket on the wahl senior with its wahl back blade and ceramic cutting blade? will it extend to a 3mm from a 000? also at 7:30, can i still do regular haircuts with that sc blade? like if i throw on a 1 or 2 guard, will it be effective in cutting hair cleanly with that taper blade?

Hey Sean if you see this- If taper blade no guard open is 3mm that would make it equivalent to a one guard closed as is labeled on the guards. However if a fade blade no guard open is equivalent to a half(as it should be in the wahl system) then that would mean a fade blade no guard open should be about 1.5mm not 2.5 mm. 1/2 guard=1.5mm. Please let me know if this is correct. If so that would mean that a fade blade open blends into a 1/2 guard and a taper blade open blends into a 1-like the Andis masters.

[@Seancutshair]

No a half guard plus the blade equals more than 1.5

Wahl with two screw clipper like a senior?

But any ideas? I feel like the wahl taper blades angles are just different from the andis angle and I have a feeling I’d prefer the andi but I selfishly want a staggered cutting blade too

I don’t care for the staggered cutting blade. Honestly didn’t notice the difference. Definitely prefer the Wahl guard system over the andis purple guards

[@mikeee_e4606]

I’ve noticed any blade zero gapped will take out the bald line

[@Seancutshair]

Yeah definitely just have to be careful it won’t rattle all your guards

[@mikeee_e4606]

Definitely have the rattle issue. Any else wrong with that besides it being loud?

[@Baldsohard365]

I just purchased the faper blade to put on my gold magic clips. The fade blade on the wall seems to have nearly identical dimensions to the faper. Is there really a difference? Or is the stylcraft fade blade just so thin that the faper is middle ground between stylcrafts fade and taper?

[@Seancutshair]

It’s pretty close to the same but the faper has ridges on it to be more like a taper blade

[@Baldsohard365]

@Seancutshair what difference/advantage do we get with the ridges?

[@Seancutshair]

@@Baldsohard365 couldn’t tell ya just saying that’s why they says it’s somewhere between the fade and taper blade. Basically a fade blade in thickness though

[@Baldsohard365]

@Seancutshair yeah. That's the part that confused me. I bought the faper to get smoother blends. The saw it was almost identical to the fade blade. What I did notice is that the flat surface of the regular fan blade has increased tension when sliding across my finger. While the ridges on the paper blade reduce the tension and gives it a smoother stroke. Hopefully that translates on my next cut. Which will be a while since I'm a home Barber who only cuts my family's hair. LOL. I appreciate the reply. Keep up the great work

[@jonathantorres6522]

Does the ergo taper blade fit the rebel ??

[@Seancutshair]

I would say so they should all be the same

[@blueber4494]

If the master blade is a true faper blade then is it worth modding my wahl instead of buying the gamma fusion blade?

[@Seancutshair]

I don’t understand. The master has a taper or fade blade. Fusion / taper is totally different

[@jonathanmelendez7410]

What do y’all recommend for a beginner barber? Taper or a fade blade?

[@Seancutshair]

Taper blade for sure! More forgiving

[@hectornumerordmejia8866]

Which fade blade doesn't get stuck on clients pores? 🤔

[@Seancutshair]

I don’t use any fade blades partially because of that so I’m not sure
