The 3 1/2 detachable blade is equivalent to your 3 guard closed, the 2 3/4 detachable blade is equivalent to your 2 guard open so it's a 2 1/2, the 2 detachable blade is equivalent to your 2 guard closed, the 1 3/4 detachable blade is equivalent to your 1 1/2 guard closed or the 1 guard open, the 1 1/2 detachable blade is equivalent to your 1 guard halfway open so it's a 1 1/4, the 1A detachable blade is equivalent to your 1 guard closed, the 1 1/4 detachable blade is equivalent to your 0 guard halfway open so it's 3/4, the 1 detachable blade is equivalent to your clippers all the open so it's a 1/2 and it's basically the same thing as your 0 guard closed, the 0A detachable blade is equivalent to your clippers halfway open so it's a 1/4, the 000 detachable blade is equivalent to your clippers all the way closed so it's a 0, the 00000 detachable blade is equivalent to your trimmers
Thank you. L9ve your videos man. I use the oster 76 with metal blades and my haircuts always turn out better with them! They are extra powerful so I can get the job done
I am confused by which part of the guard to use. I just started using a trimmer, specifically the brio beardscape. Do i use the front of the guard where it sticks out from the trimmer or the bottom of the guard? I have a feeling i use the front of the guard to get the legnth and not the bottom otherwise guards would be designed to be more vertical then horizontal
Hi David! I just bumped into your videos and they are very educational!! I started Cosmetology a little over a year ago but clippers seemed to be my strength when we got to learning how to cut hair! Since I wasn't in a barber school, I learned as much as I could by videos or by actually going to barbershops and asking barbers. I even ended up cutting my hair! I would get any type of fade just to experience what my clients would be expecting from me.... now. My biggest question has been, the "blueprint" of a haircut. I know it varies from person to person. But I'd like to see a video with different kinds of fades and you explaining and educating on proper angles to a cut. Pretty much how to make a "blueprint" of lines/angles. I hope I'm explaining myself correctly!
Hey Heidi and thank you for commenting. I think I get what are you are saying but I’m not sure if there is such a think as a blueprint for a haircut. Haircuts vary depending on many factors like head shape, texture, color of the hair and things like that. That blueprint is like a cookie-cutting technique that is used in places like super cuts and in my opinion it’s the wrong way to look at Hair cutting. However, I could do a video explaining different types of fades and why I would pick a certain fade for a client. Any other idea please let me know
I just feel like having guards and the level is more easier to blend; I’ve never used detachable guards mostly because the numbers confuse me for example like 00000, 1A, 1AA ect.
How do I get the bald line out?? I’m having trouble doing that. I am I suppose to be on the line and flick out or right under, and going up to the line n out? Really appreciate your videos? Very helpful.
Thank you so much and flick the line out. So as soon as you get to the line you flick it out to about making another. I’ll try to make a video about that
Antionne Martin start out a little less than half way and start to soften that line...gradually close the lever as you flick the line until its closed...if there's still a line (check your mirror) use the corner of your trimmers
Hello David Falla....you are a true master with a heart on your profession ...very clear straight forward time is not wasted bravooo! Im a subscriber ...let me learn from you...Thank you till next time David......form the Philippines
Thanks for the reply. I really appreciate it. I will try on my next cuts. I have been cutting my kids hair and a few of their friends. Thank you again.
At 5:51 when you talk about the 1A (1.25) you say for wahl it’s like a 1 with the lever all the way open ? Wouldn’t all the way open equal to the 1 1/2 guard (1.5) ? Isn’t it more like half way open to create the 1A (1.25) instead ?
David Falla if the 1A is in between the 1 and 1 1/2 that makes it 1.25 and in order to achieve that 1.25 in the wahl the lever needs to be mid opened ??? Not all the way open. That is my question.
I want my beard to be a 2.5 around my chin. The problem is I only have #2 and #3 and no lever. Is #1.5 with the grain the same length as #2.5 against the grain?
I am new and am trying to cut my own hair. What is the difference between blades and guards? Like do I need to keep changing the blades every time I am trying to fade? Which I think would seem a bit excessive. What blades do I need to get if I have a 1/4 000 on my Oster classic 76? Can I use that blade and just change the guards? I'm confused.
WHAT I NEED TO KNOW IS WHAT SECTION O PART OF THE HAIR WHAT CLIPPER TO USE, POR EXAMPLE TO THE BACK, THE MIDDLE AND THE TOP. THANK YOU WAITING FOR YOUR ANSWER.
@@DavidFalla You aren't crazy. The nature of the detachable blades means that they won't streak like a plastic guard, and no hairs are missed. I was back and fourth, and have used both exclusively. I have my 76 back, and am finding it hard to put down. Ive started a cut with a clip on an adjustable, and have ALWAYS found hairs that I've missed going back over the area with the detachable.
Hello and very good job!!I live in Greece and i want to ask you if you know , Oster 606 have the same head comb with Oster fast feed?Ηave you ever worked with these machines to tell me the difference?
Nice video thanks Just got the Oster 97 recently. Does the Andis magnetic fit on the Oster blades ? I have the #0000 that the clipper came with. I'm asking cos I'm trying to find attachment combs to fit and I read somewhere that most of Andis attachments fit the Oster 76/97. Any advice would help thanks.
David Falla en Español i see. Thanks for the quick reply! I was really considering getting them since they are unique but didn't know. Thanks i appreciate it
Copperlake depending on the clippers! I used to get this mixed up all the time. Usually for the Wahl’s yes. But for the Andis lever all the way open equals a 1.
Im new trying to use both styles but i think detachables are cleaner but take longer to adjust .. any advice? Ive been cutting for about 2 or 3 weeks lol
Hello Rosy and honestly I love my Andis Supra ZR. It is my favorite clipper and I wouldn’t change it anything else. If you are on a budget then the BGR is light and small but the Oster 76 it feels like it’s about to do some damage lol.
para mi la 1a es una 1 cerrada , no es con la palanca abierta , tengo videos haciendo desvanecidos con detachables and i use 2 , 1 1/2 , and then the 1a

Confusing video. They should just show each guard, how it cuts, how much it cuts. Saying all the numbers and pointing out the guards doesn't really help.

I love fading with detachable clippers it's good to see a Barber on TH-cam that use detachable for fading
I will never see like you. You are amazing man. Thanks for everything. You are the best you know
Can you do a video explaining when to go straight up, when to flick out, and when to use the corner of your clipper to blend. Thanks
Thank you for the request and I’ll get it done.
He’s going to be the first TH-camr to make it.
Yes make this video pls
@@DavidFalla Where can I find the video for this?
I feel like learning all of that comes naturally with experience.
Thank you. L9ve your videos man. I use the oster 76 with metal blades and my haircuts always turn out better with them! They are extra powerful so I can get the job done
my favorite detachable is the 1 3/4...a little shorter than the 2 on top looks great.
I don’t have that one but I heard is great

There are different systems and can’t be compare. The 1A is between the 1 blade and the 1 1/2 blade. What is exactly in other systems? I don’t know
David Falla if the 1A is in between the 1 and 1 1/2 that makes it 1.25 and in order to achieve that 1.25 in the wahl the lever needs to be mid opened ??? Not all the way open. That is my question.
The Wahl 1 open is not a 1 1/2. There is a 1 1/2 plastic guard for a reason
David Falla Interesting how some other barbers claim that the wahl all the open is considered a half. Anyways thanks for your help ! Much appreciated.
Can clipper guides be used in trimmers? Are they generally the same size? Just getting into cutting my hair due to covid.
Yes guards can come for trimmers but they are trimmer guards most clipper guards will not fit most trimmers
Can I use any clipper guard for replacement guards
i bought a grooming kit and got a clipper and a trimmer both with 6mm and 9mm guards. i tought i would get 4 different lengths but i didnt?
i Have trouble knowing when and where to use my guards. any tips ?!
I want my beard to be a 2.5 around my chin. The problem is I only have #2 and #3 and no lever. Is #1.5 with the grain the same length as #2.5 against the grain?

I wanna start cutting my own hair but idk where to start or what to buy
hey david the blades are in the black tray bro :)
Can you attach the guards on the detachable blades?
I know you can use the purple Andis guards on the 000 detachable blade
What about if you use the Purple #8 Andis Guard, would it fit on the 1A Detachable Blade ??
The purple guards only fit flushed the 000.
WHAT I NEED TO KNOW IS WHAT SECTION O PART OF THE HAIR WHAT CLIPPER TO USE, POR EXAMPLE TO THE BACK, THE MIDDLE AND THE TOP. THANK YOU WAITING FOR YOUR ANSWER.
You don't find the detachables to give you a cleaner cut? I love starting with detachables I feel they give a great foundation.
People think I’m crazy when I tell them that detachables give a nicer look to a fade lol.
@@DavidFalla You aren't crazy. The nature of the detachable blades means that they won't streak like a plastic guard, and no hairs are missed. I was back and fourth, and have used both exclusively.

Thank you for your explanation on this, very informative. I appreciate your honesty as well.
Can you make a video on how to use electric clippers for guys who have had scalp micropigmentation (Andis)?
Hello and very good job!!I live in Greece and i want to ask you if you know , Oster 606 have the same head comb with Oster fast feed?Ηave you ever worked with these machines to tell me the difference?
Is the 3 qtr all the way open
WHATS THE 0 guard from andis to Walh?
most of the hair clipper comes with 3,6,9,12 size adjusting comb.
so plz show me with that clipper how am i going to cut my hair size 2 and size 1?
If you don’t have number 2 or 1 then you can’t get a haircut that has those numbers. You should buy what you need so you can get the job done
I have a pair of clippers at home but no gaurd how do I know what size to get if it’s not on the clippers
Can someone help me? My andis guards gets scratched by my clipper blade on my cordless master when I close it all the way. Any suggestions?
The Wahl guards fit in the andis master?
Can you make video how to blend no 3 guards sides and back
Are the andis blades and oster76 blades the same?
Is there a black premium wahl Zero guard
Great video with valuable information that's easy to follow. Thanks David!
Thank you Blake!
So the wahl 1/2 is the same as the andis 0?
In theory. The both should be a 1/16
I have lost all my clip gaurds while shifting can't find them in amazon as well what should i do
Is guards,combs,guides all the same thing ?
Adding a magnetic guards would that be considered open or have way
The purple guards only fit the 000 detachable for what I know. So any plastic guard on the 000 is almost a closed lever
On Wahl guards, is a 1 guard fully open shorter than a 1.5 guard fully closed, or are they the same length?
Yes its slightly shorter than the 11/2 guard
Trying to shave the matts out of our cats fur,thankyou for this,very helpful
I need something that can make me completely bald. What size would I need and what brand do you recommend?
Is the 1/2 on the wahl clipper the same on the 0 andis clipper??
Not the same but they both do the same job to blend the 1 into the Half
David tendra esos guard Andis te lo compro si lo vendes
Who make that 2 1/2 detachable blade?
Thank you for the explanation bro. I have a question, the andis guards may be used with others clippers?. Greetings from Venezuela.
Honestly I only know they fit on the Oster Fast feed
Thank you...
Where can i buy hair model mannequin ?
Online or at any beauty supply store. And if they don't have them they can order one for you
Hi! Can use wahl guards on oster fast feed ?
Are the whal guards good?
Nice video thanks
Just got the Oster 97 recently. Does the Andis magnetic fit on the Oster blades ? I have the #0000 that the clipper came with. I'm asking cos I'm trying to find attachment combs to fit and I read somewhere that most of Andis attachments fit the Oster 76/97. Any advice would help thanks.
Big brother who makes that 2 1/2???
Can you use the purple andis guards for wahl?
You could because of the magnets but they don’t really fit
David Falla en Español i see. Thanks for the quick reply! I was really considering getting them since they are unique but didn't know. Thanks i appreciate it
No problem. I try to answer the questions ASAP and have you tried the Wahl Premium Guards? They are pretty good
David Falla i haven't yet but i am going to buy the set soon. Thanks again
Let me know how it works out
so 0.5 guard closed lever is the same as no guard with lever opened correct?
Copperlake depending on the clippers! I used to get this mixed up all the time. Usually for the Wahl’s yes. But for the Andis lever all the way open equals a 1.
How much did you spend on all your blades?
I would know. I’ve been buying them little by little over the years
In my opinion detachable give a quicker, cleaner cut, great for debulking.
Im new trying to use both styles but i think detachables are cleaner but take longer to adjust .. any advice? Ive been cutting for about 2 or 3 weeks lol
Hey david Can you fit wahl or andis gaurds on a detachable blade ?
I use an Oster 76 you can't but you can fit Oster guards on the 000 but you don't want to eaither
can you do red speed o guides
What guards are good for oster fast feed besides magnetic
andis new premium plastic fit just as good as the purple ones .
What is better precision Wahl or Andis ?
Both are great for precision
You
#10 grooming that's on the blade it self?
It’s a wahl #10. It’s from the grooming collection
David Falla Wahl makes those blades too detachable I've never seen one
Yeah I didn’t know either till I found that #10. That’s why the color of the blade is different to the other ones
David Falla no wonder it looked different nice to know
YOU HAVE A NICE EXPLANATION OF EACH COMB, BUT YOU NEED TO DO A VIDEO HOW TO USE EACH ONE. THANKS
Hi David ..hope all is going great!! Fast question what clipper do you think is best in your opinion...andis supra or andis bgr or osters 76?
Hello Rosy and honestly I love my Andis Supra ZR. It is my favorite clipper and I wouldn’t change it anything else. If you are on a budget then the BGR is light and small but the Oster 76 it feels like it’s about to do some damage lol.
David Falla thanks for your opinion.:) i will try the zr then..hopefully they are not hard to learn.
How much saudi riyal
How much
Does andis magmatic guard feet any whal clippers ?
I don’t think so but don’t count me on it
Very helpful man.. love your videos. I appreciate you're work! 👍💈👍
Thank you so much and I do this because I want to share with everyone what I know
Do you know how to clean your guards?
Water and soap, then a desinfectante
David Falla thank you
im confused with wahl system the 1/6 is a half or zero
eskimo joe 1/16 = 0 guard for Andis, 1/2 guard for Wahl
Blades are 1000% the better way to go. I started off w Oster 76 and never looked back. Cuts come out smoother and faster. Time is money!
What clipper name
Great job
Great Job!
Great information. Thanks for sharing.
Attaching guard to the razor
I liked the video, just wish it went more in depth on measurements.
The problem I have with detachables ,they make me want to throw my other stuff away and just use them .
john wooard73corvette just send me them 🤣🤣
Great video
awesome video really informative
Nice job with the video David really informative
Thank you and I’m glad you found it informative
Andis does make a 1 1/2
Now they do. At the time of the video, they didn’t have it
Okay kool nice video
Good vid bro. You said it; preference.
Thanks and yeah there isn’t a right or wrong in this industry
para mi la 1a es una 1 cerrada , no es con la palanca abierta , tengo videos haciendo desvanecidos con detachables and i use 2 , 1 1/2 , and then the 1a
