I’ve watched multiple videos today, as I’m desperately trying to learn. I was getting so disappointed and ready to close it out..then I found yours. BY FAR the best instructor out there!! Thank you for being so dedicated and willing to help. Thank you!

Thank you so very much. I am a retired Cosmetologist and Barber. Unfortunately for health reasons I have not Styled hair for 35 yrs, & have forgotten more than I remember. So thank you, because I will be starting next week to Volunteer a few hrs. per week to the Homeless & Less Fortunate. Your site is a Blessing to me. May God Bless you and yours, Sincerely and Respectfully, Nan

As a 25 year stylist teaching new stylists how to use their clippers and trimmers this video will help tremendously. I had to learn everything on the floor when it came to clipper cuts. We don’t learn any of this in cosmetology school. Thank you!

[SammyEscobar]

I really appreciate you showing the difference between having the clipper too straight when taking out the line versus actually going with the scalp. That was the biggest mistake I was making starting out. Thank you.

Best tutorial I came across. Straight to the point without losing details.

This is the first time I'm watching any of your videos, and I must say that you are a very good teacher.
As a female who wishes to learn barbing as a skill, I felt like I was next to you while you were teaching. So precise, and I understood everything unlike other beginner tutorials I've seen.
Keep up the good work.

Sometimes people need a crash course. Appreciate the channel and thx for sharing.

[sayangus]

This is brilliant!! I started buzzing my hair couple years ago n cutting my hubby's hair. I'm still looking at tutorials on YouTube. I'm so happy I found yours!!

[starrbeck]

My son is 13 and he watch’s a lot of your videos! You’re inspiring the young generation! 🙌🏼🙏🏻

I appreciate this video so much G. The whole time I was in barber college I was telling my instructor that we NEED a video like this, because knowing how to hold the clippers and properly flick IS NOT taught! Much Respect💯

[ashleyosborne]

THIS was the video I have been looking for!! Basics to the point in a way that everyone who doesn't know the terminology can understand! Thank you so much!!

[renzaldrinlasco]

The video is helpful for new barbers. The video quality is excellent, and the voice is clear and calming. The video teaches the basics of how to use clippers and trimmers, which will help me as I cut my son's hair. I am certain I will be able to cut his hair and that he will be pleased with the result.

[stevenburgos]

Thomas, thank you so much for this. As a new barber I’m still trying to get comfortable with my hand position. Thank you for always and consistently putting out great content.

[tiggapee]

The hand positions video is awesome for beginners like me. I liked the video and downloaded it, so I may watch it multiple times.

[HermitGod]

[TheRealYoungSam]

Love this video man it’s hard to find straight to the point videos and this was all the sauce

You're such a great Teacher.
You made it so simple to understand and you didn't waste much time, with what you did, I just bought my clipper and I think by using your video, I will be able to start with kids.

Thank you.
