Awesome video. Thank you. My 10yr old son desperately needed a haircut and money has been tight. I used your method and it turned out great! Super quick too. Now I can add amateur barber to my Mom skills 👍

[SammyEddie]

Just saw your video. Loved the tips! Getting my clipper in two days. Also. Youre a barber and giving people advise how to do it themselves. Very selfless of you. If you lived near me you would have my business. Youre a good guy.

I bought myself a pair of clippers online the other day and followed your tutorial to the tee and it turned out really great. i didnt have a mirror setup so i had my brother watch the video with me and he did the back part for me. this man doing God's work right here

"Now remember this isn't the best haircut you've ever had, this is you cutting your own hair." 😂

[JCRVEx]

Im a doctor in a remote village in India and your video has been so useful! The most important tip was following the grain of the hair on the top. I use a 3 on top and 1 fading in on the sides and back. You are an absolute star. God bless you

[GeneralRoshambo]

I decided to give this a shot since it's about how I get my hair cut anyway, and I don't think the barbers will be seeing me for quite some time. Thank you for this, this will save me some money as well!

[malicant]

I started cutting my own hair during the lockdowns, and I've never looked back. Good old buzz-cut!

I've only had two store-bought haircuts in my life and I'm 76. My first haircut was when I was too young to remember it, but my father said he would never take me back to the barber because I screamed and embarrassed him. Because there were four of us brothers, Dad bought a pair of mechanical hand clippers first. Later he bought an electric set which he used to cut us boy's hair for years. When I was about to graduate from high school I decided I needed a professional haircut for graduation. The barber made so much fun of my hair being like 'Hog Hair' like the people who lived down in the poor area had. I paid him a quarter and left. And I've never been back to a barber shop since. For the last 58 years, I've cut my own hair. Hair cuts have gone from a quarter per head to twenty and thirty dollars a head... I've saved some real money over the years... And... Truth be told, there are only a couple of days between a bad cut and a good look that's grown out to hide the mistakes... So... Yeah... You can cut your own hair... I've done it... For decades...

I've been cutting my hair this way once a month for many year's with a #4 blade guard. I save about 400 dollars a year by cutting my own hair.

Grrreat, no-nonsense video!! I brought a pair of old 2nd hand Wahl home-cut clippers and 3 guides, at a car boot sale, for the knockdown price of 25p, and have been cutting my own hair ever since... ever since... wait for this... ever since 1995 🤣

[riverraisin]

I've been cutting my own hair for about 10 years now. Never got a consistently decent cut from those national chain haircutters, so decided I could screw it up myself and save some money. Turns out it's not that difficult.
I got some tips from watching your video that will give me even better results.
Thanks.

[FortunePayback]

First my father, and now my mother, have been cutting my hair for the last 20+ years! Have been slowly evolving my style, and with that, I decided that i finally want to be a big boy, and learn to do it myself!

Watched a few videos before this one, but this one has been by far the best and what i've primarily what i've been looking for. Thank you sir, and wish me luck!

[christiannarvaez]

I’m satisfied with the results. Thank you for the video. I have an interview coming up and removing the loaf of hair I had on me give me a confidence booster😂😊

[erinobrien]

Your video is a great primer on how to do a clipper cut. I’ve been using your video as a reminder of “how to” prior to cutting my hair. I have a pixie and use either a 6 or 7 guard for length as still want to look feminine. I also have a straight edge razor I use to detail my fringe. With your video it works like a charm every time.

And yes, RELAX as you use the clippers!! You will achieve a better result.

Spot on tutorial. My wife bought me some clippers at the start of COVID and I have cut my own hair since. Im not too worried what the back looks like but nobody has ever passed any comment? Spent £20 before christmas on a haircut but it didnt look as good as my DIY effort so will not do that again. They say the difference between a really good haircut and a bad one about a week! LOL

[billyfromla]

Cheers to all the barbers that are left with us, my two barbers both died in the last two years, one from tobacco and then the owner from COVID. This is now my #1 haircut technique, beats the other YouTube techniques, much faster, and less flat head look.

[ryg]

Just one guard... cutting with the grain on top instead of against it... game changer! Thanks for the tips!

[billycheung]

Thank you. I tried many ways to cut my hair. This is by far the most easiest and best way!!

[Paul_Warren_Wolfe]

I've been cutting my own hair for many years and always did "just okay" with the length on top... so today, I tried your method with a #4 guard, and it worked wonderfully well... simple and effective. Thanks for the advice.

[TayWoode]

Brilliant! I’m going to Greece tomorrow and really needed my sides of my hair done properly even though I’ve got an Afro I curl down but couldn’t get anywhere to do it in time so this has been really helpful 👍🏾
