Been cutting for over 30 years, but on what down time I get, I'm watching and learning how to improve. I MORE THAN appreciate the education you give. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with me.
I must say...out of all the TH-cam tutorials yours are the most in depth when it comes to the fundamentals. My fades are at a point where many would probably stop watching tutorials but I still find the small gem reading in between the lines(no pun intended). Also gotta show you some TH-cam love. Thanks again boss
Your tutorials are off the chain Mr eddie!! Since I've started watching your vids., when I cut hair I feel so much more knowledgeable about my cuts and fades. It's improved my confidence also!! Thanks again
Eddie absolute fantastic video as always! Loved the outtakes too, very funny! What's annoying is if you search "how to skin fade" in TH-cam your video from 3 years ago comes up. I wish youtube would list your new content as its evolved so much in the top 10 search list. By far the best tutorial content out there with no stone left unturned. 👌
yes. you don't literally need to zero gap them. if you only have one of each its better to set them slightly back from "zero gap" to not damage the skin. it'll also be hard to take out the skin line if the clipper isn't zero gapped. I wouldn't use the trimmer to set the bald line at first either. good luck
Great video and we’ll taught mini class on how to get it done while achieving excellence in and around how we have our tools set up for us to win!! 💯🙏🏼
if they had the same blade setup which trimmer would you use for the best lines. the hitter or evo with the best blade setup for each. or if there's a video where you answer this. thanks Eddie.
I don’t like the ultimate 2.0 blade for sharp line ups even zero gapped it doesn’t really hit. It’s good with bulk tho. I’m Interested in tht new trimmer blade how does it hit?
I purchased the Oster 76 and a bunch of their blades (also the guard attachments) thinking it was the best, after watching your videos I noticed that it doesn’t have the lever (open, close) Can I still achieve that perfect fade using a clipper without it? If so, what size blades would be equal to open/close? Those blades are not cheap!! Hope my question makes sense.
It can be done and it IS done. The BEST way for speed and quality you Need a clipper with adjustable blade. The oysters Andries. Detachables are best for removing bulk.
After zero gapping my Wahl Detailer with the Wahl zero gap tool is FIRE! however no matter how much I try to use light pressure and stretch out the skin on the neck, it's still irritating the skin...is there anything else I can do(other then leaving another trimmer set back?) I'd rather not buy a third trimmer as I like to have a set ready between clients to save time and I do believe in 10 min disinfection between clients... ( feel like I'm the only one out there..LOL!)
Do I need a new cutting blade, with the Gamma+ new blade? Does the still blade do the work? I have a pair of Evos, with the Ultimate blade, it doesn't hit. I've tried it with the Detailer looking blade too, it didn't hit either.
So if I wanted you to get my Andis master set right to fade can I send em to you to get em right & how much would you charge me to do so?? I asked cause I broken my cutting hand & my dexterity is totally off..
@@TH-camBarberAcademy I haven't been to a barber shop since 2004 that when I got my cos license. I been cutting my own head every since. And I moving to different states since 2009.
What’s the equivalent guard size between going forward and going against the grain ? What’s the size difference to make a smooth transition with no lines? For instance.. if I’m coming down the top of the sides with the grain with a 3 guard ..I’m coming up from a 0 fade from the bottom of side ? What will blend into the 3 perfectly going against the grain going up ?… what’s the standard size difference in guards between going against and with the grain to make a perfect blend ?

I learned how to adjust my “Wahl” clippers as a teenager. My dad taught me, his father was a barber.

Do you recommend zero gapping your clippers and trimmers as a beginner?
yes. you don't literally need to zero gap them. if you only have one of each its better to set them slightly back from "zero gap" to not damage the skin. it'll also be hard to take out the skin line if the clipper isn't zero gapped. I wouldn't use the trimmer to set the bald line at first either. good luck

@@TH-camBarberAcademy appreciate you my brother!
Do you use the saber with a taper blade to set your guidelines and the rebel with the fusion blade to attack the guidelines?
Awesome video brother!!!!! Thank you!
Got everything on lock 🔥🔥🔥🔥
What is a taper clipper that you recommend? Thank you so much.
Always killing it with these videos 💪
Awesome as always matey the G.O.A.T #eddiesarmy

thank u sir!
Your thoughts on using the 3/0,4/0,5/0 blades on a detachable of taking out the bottom line?
What is 0.5 is it a 1/2 guard?
So if I wanted you to get my Andis master set right to fade can I send em to you to get em right & how much would you charge me to do so?? I asked cause I broken my cutting hand & my dexterity is totally off..

Dedicated learner🤟🏾
Damn gamma clippers aren't available in fiji😢
Why make the 1 guideline before the .5 ?
Wish I could have some of these tools 🥴
Is this considered fading down ?
What’s the equivalent guard size between going forward and going against the grain ? What’s the size difference to make a smooth transition with no lines? For instance.. if I’m coming down the top of the sides with the grain with a 3 guard ..I’m coming up from a 0 fade from the bottom of side ? What will blend into the 3 perfectly going against the grain going up ?… what’s the standard size difference in guards between going against and with the grain to make a perfect blend ?
I’d say probably a 4-4 1/2 but you’d have better success going clippers over comb because there’s gonna be certain areas that the 4 won’t lift
