You're doing an excellent job giving out as many details as possible, even if they seem basic. Love that. Keep it up!

[Beboroni]

I’m loving that you’re back bro, excellent fade!

[junebugjec]

Bro you ain't playing when you said you back at it, great video 👍📹🎓

[JacksonEye]

This is the best tutorial/video that I’ve seen so far. I’ve watched a lot of videos. After watching this I feel that my blend can look like this. That’s a compliment because of how you walked us through this process. Thank you for this. Nice cut!!

Back by popular demand!! Killer Kann 😎🔥

Best fade tutorial I've seen. You're very systematic. That's what I'm looking for. Your story inspired me. I just bought some oster fast feeds, and now I'm going to cut people's hair, mostly my own right now. I had the problem that everyone was messing my hair up and I was like f this. Lol. Now I do good fades on my hair, and this is with old andis clippers, and Wahl minis that suck because the lever keeps closing.

Great vid

I put hard guide lines in as a foundation
Then I soften the guidelines “whatever makes the line will also make the line disappear”

Then detail all remaining dark spots and left over lines... finished.

Great video . I’ve never seen anyone do that circular motion technique before . Very interesting.

Hey took your recommendation on the Philips shaver and its way better than the foils. Didnt leave a harsh line and it takes the stubble down so fast. Paid $50 Canadian for it at Walmart no need for Wahl Foils anymore and definitely dont need to buy a $300 Braun thanks again!!!

Guys he has a good technique but i highly recommend when fading to not constantly be going all around the head when opening your clipper or fading out guidelines. Constantly rotating your client around or you walking around them to fade every time you open your lever can get annoying for them. Instead for example if you blending up to your blade open guideline just blend it out fully up to the guideline on one side. Can do this all the way toward halfway through the back or seperate them into 3 parts left right and back. So you still working all around the head but you do less wasted motions by spinning your client so much. You can do this with every guideline. Its actually faster as well. Good cut though.

Good job man I like your work haha you should do another straight razor head shave.

[wallomaie]

Why not put the 2nd guideline with the 0 guard fully open..because after your 1st guideline you start with the 0 guard and work up till the 0 guard is open?. I have a feeling that it is just so you can have a greater difference in hair length between the 1st and 2nd guidelines so that you can see the zones better.

We love your videos man👌👌 if you was to be honest how would u rate the cordless masters? And i know u like you magic which one out the 2? Much respect sir.
