Fading Guidelines Explained ✅

In this tutorial, I am taking you through the step-by-step process of achieving the perfect fade haircut. I also know most of you spend a lot of your haircut time struggling with bald lines. I'll show you my technique to make that so much more simple and easy!

Fade haircuts were common in the military in the 40’s and 50’s and continued in Black and Hispanic barber shops. Seeing a big resurgence in the late 80s and early 90s, the styles were cleaner cut yet maintained individuality. Fast forward to current society where the fade is gaining popularity in all ethnicities and the look that was formerly seen as too edgy for the workplace is being embraced for its sculpted precision and aesthetically pleasing appearance.
With the surge in popularity and little room for error, it is important to know how to properly construct a fade haircut. This step-by-step tutorial will simplify the process and help remove the struggle from the most difficult parts.

The fact that I was struggling with the half guard and the 1.5 guard and he gave tips on those two in this video is amazing !

[foolhardymusicorignal]

I had no idea that 1 1/2 and 1/2 guards weren’t supposed to have their own section 😳 that alone helped so much thank you!

Very thorough and complete tutorial for the bald section, which in my opinion is one of the most detailed sections that can make a haircut a hit or miss. Thanks Sean for such great content! Lots to learn from you!

[Cerbeius]

I tried this technique this weekend and it helped me a lot! Especially on how you use the .5 and 1.5 guard. Thank you a lot for your wisdom!

[smichael]

By far the BEST tutorial I've seen, hands down. I absolutely love the way you filmed this in HD. I saw every follicle you were cutting. Bravo! Your ability to explain your thought processes is beyond reproach.

[paytonhoskins]

I’ve been doing exclusively women’s hair for 4 years and I finally left to peruse a career doing men’s hair. It is very different and I have used your videos for clippers and trimmer recommendations as well as for technique. At the moment I take longer than supposed to on haircuts, but your videos have definitely helped me speed up from where I was. Thank you for posting

[MartinAdams-tqen]
