I love your videos bro..I thank you for your knowledge. I love the way you explain things so simple and step by step..but for much that I try to get that fade right it never works for me. I try following the steps but I guess I'm afraid to go to high and mess up the cut..
I give my son haircuts but for some reason I never could get it right. Is there some way I can send you a pic of his haircut and you can tell me what I'm doing wrong if thats possible.
I recently changed shops and my new boss said she’s “really impressed with my fades for someone who’s only been cutting for a year”. Seriously Sean, you’re the reason that I am the barber that I am. You’re teachings are why I cut as well as I do. And things I used to struggle doing (cutting the top), I do with so much more ease now. You’re the best teacher on TH-cam that I’ve found yet. You’re actually the first one I found lol, BUT stills the best nonetheless because I’ve tried to watch others and it’s seriously not the same. So I feel like I need to tell you THANK YOU!! (and please keep making videos lol)
Been watching videos from many different channels and this one finally gave me the best understanding on the art of fading. I am grateful for the patience and your willingness to teach your viewers. Thank you !
My friend, I am a barber at the beginning of my career, thanks to your clips. I will not say that I have become a professional, but frankly, my level has improved. Thanks my brother 😘
Been cutting hair for 5 years and always finding myself coming back and watching your uploads. Keep up the content you’re by far the best Barber content creator!
You cleared up so much for me I’ve watched 1000 videos and someone finally explained what I needed in a way I can actually understand it. Thank you 🙏🏽💪🏽
As a beginner who’s struggled understanding the fade process, all I can say is you explained it perfectly visually and verbally, understood every step. Gonna do a couple cuts here in an hour or so, this is kinda helpin relive some of the nerves lol. Appreciate you for dropping this gem, much love brotha 💯
Thanks for this truly. I’ve been cutting for a while now and have always struggled fading out that no guard to 1 guard line but using what you taught in this allowed me to finally complete a good fade. Thank you🙏🏿
I’m starting to practice more, i literally just fucked up my brothers cut up but is good, he funna get lifetime cuts. Bro makes it look so easy, CONGRATULATIONS ON 100K🎉🎉
Now I truly understand why cutting a full fade is better when you break down the head in sections Sean thanks bro because when I go all the way around my own head sometimes I can get lost if I'm not fully focused just on mt haircut 💈💈💈✂️✂️✂️👏💪💯🙋
Your explanation of techniques is unrivaled. It’s obvious that you’ve fully transitioned to content creation. It shows in your overall quality. Your editor is also doing a fantastic job!!! Keep up the dope videos 🔥 👏🏼
The edits&quality and the way you explain the steps improved a lot bro you’re killing it🔥 remember me when you hit 100k subs I’ve learned a lot from you🤞
Channel anda sangat membantu untuk pemula,tidak berbelit belit, lengkap dengan petunjuk yang disertakan dilayar,anda benar benar memberikan ilmu ini tidak setengah setengah,jadi memudahkan belajar secara virtual, terimakasih brother, semoga channel anda menjadi besar dan sukses,salam dari Indonesia🙏🙏🙏
Gone months watching countless videos on how to fade. And I finally ran into this one. Made it so simple to understand . It helped tremendously. Thanks bro
I have always had these questions and looked at dozens of videos along time and have never found an explanation like this one in this video. This has covered so many doubts that I had and it will seriously make an impact on cutting hair better. I don’t know why other barbers that post content gate keep details like using a non zero gapped trimmer to cut the hair on the bottom. And to not bring the saver too up cause it’s going to make it impossible to blend. I have been making the same mistake before this video dozens of times and couldn’t find how to perfect my blend until now. This video deserves a donation because it’s saved time from making the same mistakes over and over without knowing how to pinpoint the cause.
The lever function was very confusing when having a half guard, because the cutting range is different and Sean has explained what’s the best way to move up the blend in length with each guard and lever.
Great job, buddy. We met in Nashville yesterday. It's refreshing to see great technique and great work. For someone who has been cutting most of my life I can appreciate your staying true to just good old badass haircutting. Keep it up!
Love this. I have never heard anyone explain how the 1 1/2 guard open is longer than the 2 closed and shorter than the 1 guard open. That is a game changing piece of advice. Thank you!
what he is trying to say that if u want to blend in between the 1 guard open and the 2 guard closed u need to use the 1 1/2 guard on lever halfway open thats how u not gonna take more hair or less right perfect. If i understood right@@markbalonga7181
Hey brother i say this now I aspire to stand beside you one day on the stage for awards! You’re an inspiration for me and my career I hope to be at your level one day!
Probably the best skin fade tutorial I’ve ever seen. You can tell that you really love what you do. And want to make people better. Awesome content!!!!!💪🏻💪🏻💈💈
Thanks Sean, you earned a new sub. Too many barbers out there making steps more difficult than it needs to be. The math for the guards checks out in my head using this method. Thanks!
i think the biggest question is, Do you actually Hit the line with the no guard - open, or do you hit above the bald Line as your making that second line? like do u fr hit it with the teeth or hit right above and flick?
thanks bro I always take the shaver all the way to the line and was so hard to take out that bottom line love your videos bro always learning from them and very entertaining
Thank u brah well explained..straight to the point…am not a barber I just wanna perfected my skills I got 3 boys…8 .6..3 that I wanna starting cuttin their hair
I still use my slimline and it works great for my technique and some other people still til today have told me that I’m a dinosaur 🦖 with my tools and asked me why I still use my slimline and detachable clippers for debulk and I just said that all my tools serve a purpose.❤ it
Similar to how I used to fade, I’ve switched it up and just use the 1 and a half guard and half guard to fade now and it’s been working out really well! You tried that at all?
Brooooo, where did you get those translucent guards?!? And I will be watching this video religiously till I need to cut my hair again. Keep up the amazing work 🤙🏽
Quick question, I notice that when setting in the guide lines that you utilize the whole clipper blade, and my question is, when you go to blend out the lines, do you use more of the corners or what looks like half of the blade versus using the whole blade? Oh sorry one more thing? How much pressure do you apply when using clippers?
Yeah I usually set them in with most of the blade. The more curved the guideline is the less blade I use. You should be push enough to have it flush to the head but the clients head shouldn’t be bobbing back and forth
Nice video, but could you explain please how a 0,5 guard closed is gonna be shorter than a 0 open?? How is that possible? Same with the 1,5 and 2 guards.
Hey Sean, amazing video as always really. I notice that you are using the Flex more and more. Do you prefer it over the Saber now? Do you think it’s sharper? Thanks.
Hi there, I got a cheap machine from the market so i can do my own haircut since it's quite difficult to go to the barber. My machine have only 2 accessories and you have to regulate size by turning it. So my request is can you put every mensurations (mm) so i can have them and use them with my machine. Thanks.
Sean. I need a favour my big man: can you make a shirt tutorial/video or something for me on bald fading into a closed number 1 on top, or on how to fade into a number 1 for a braid haircut. Need a guide please!
What's up Sean, finally graduated barber school, been in the shop now about 1 month. I had a question about stretching the skin when takin out the lower 1 or 2 guidelines, mainly that last line. Is this something you do or have done when cutting? I understand how it could be helpful but I also feel like it could throw you off from being able to accurately follow that guideline around the shape of the head. I would love to hear your opinion on this man.
I recently started cutting my own hair and I figured out how to blend the lower line. It's the second line higher up. It always looks like it doesn't match the opposite side. I could use guidance on how to keep the left and right side symmetrical
Make the line on one side of your head using a reference point like the point of the eyebrow or the point of your side burn square on your temple where it starts to go down. Then instead of following the line all the way around the back to the other side, while looking in a mirror, take a long comb (or pencil or ruler) and put one end up to the line on the side you already cut with the rest of the comb pointing away from your face. Then roll the comb across your forehead to the other side and match up the uncut side with the cut side in the mirror. Hold your finger in that spot with the top of your fingernail marking where the line needs to go. Remove the comb and cut the line where your finger is. Now you have a line on each side and just follow it around to the back now. After some time of doing it this way you'll be able to eye it out without the comb just using your finger. That's how I learned to do it. Been a barber/stylist since like 2011. Hope this helps.
I’m a new Barber and currently in barber school. And you have played a big role in my journey learning and you making these videos are completely helpful.
If this video helped you…share it with someone else who can benefit!!!

I’m not sure I’m understanding exactly what you’re asking. You can hit the line because it’s open it won’t touch the bald line anyway
I must say your editing and explanations are far one of the best. I’m blessed just by watching and it’s helped me. Thank you! Keep up the good work.

For people watching this, do you watch this while cutting hair? Or do you try and remember one or two things that was said

AMA just use the 0

I’ve seen it done but I have a complete breakdown that I teach down to the mm and using only them doesn’t allow you to hit every length in there

Nice!
Thanks to you I can cut my own hear 🤜🤛💪💪

is this a good technique to use on all the different types of fades like tapers/burst fades/ etc
Best tutorial l have ever seen well done bro.could you make a video for clipper motion and movments please?
That’s a good idea I’ll work on it
@@Seancutshair appreciate it bro
Always a great tutorial bro
Thanks man!
This video has been so helpful! Thank you so much
Nice video, but could you explain please how a 0,5 guard closed is gonna be shorter than a 0 open?? How is that possible? Same with the 1,5 and 2 guards.
Im scratching my head at the same thing here i wish for someone to explain this
It’s too much to explain here. The thickness of the .5 guard is so small, added to a closed clipper it’s shorter than open
How are the Lo pros holding up 10 months later? Still on your station ?
Hey Sean, amazing video as always really. I notice that you are using the Flex more and more. Do you prefer it over the Saber now? Do you think it’s sharper?
Thanks.
I dropped my saber and broke my blade. I think it’s equivalent I was just used to the saber
1 GL 0,5
Blend with 1 opened, then close, if needed open more, then 0,5 Guard 3/4 opened
2 GL 1 Guard
Blend with 1,5 Guard 3/4 opened
3 GL 2 Guard
This is hard bro im getting go barber school soon coming up
Hi there,
I got a cheap machine from the market so i can do my own haircut since it's quite difficult to go to the barber.
My machine have only 2 accessories and you have to regulate size by turning it.
So my request is can you put every mensurations (mm) so i can have them and use them with my machine.
Thanks.
I wouldn’t even know where to start never used a clipper like that
These edits may take your tutorials to a whole different league of their own
Appreciate it! Planning on doing much more of this
Sean. I need a favour my big man: can you make a shirt tutorial/video or something for me on bald fading into a closed number 1 on top, or on how to fade into a number 1 for a braid haircut. Need a guide please!
I have a cut into a #2 and I have fades into braids just need to go look through my videos!
When I came here it was already 301K views from 300K Spartans (+18 more) for the first time ever Live Long And Prosper 🖖🏻
What's up Sean, finally graduated barber school, been in the shop now about 1 month. I had a question about stretching the skin when takin out the lower 1 or 2 guidelines, mainly that last line. Is this something you do or have done when cutting? I understand how it could be helpful but I also feel like it could throw you off from being able to accurately follow that guideline around the shape of the head. I would love to hear your opinion on this man.
I don’t do it regularly but there are times a spot is hard to get out and stretching the skin can make it easier
Hey man ur the best....thx for all tech...
Happy to help!
Love it man looks good
Appreciate it
Thank you for this it really helped a lot especially with that 1 guideline. I always had trouble fading it out with the half guard and down :(
You're very welcome!
Are these steps done with the Clipper zero gapped?
You must not have watched lol. I don’t zero gap anything. You can use it zero gapped if you want
What guards are you using? They look sick I want them
Bro what is guard? I don't understand. Kindly Tell me how many millimeters of comb you used. ❤❤❤
Is there a difference fading going up vs down?
Same steps but you just don’t put guidelines in fading down. Harder to stay organized in my opinion
I recently started cutting my own hair and I figured out how to blend the lower line. It's the second line higher up. It always looks like it doesn't match the opposite side. I could use guidance on how to keep the left and right side symmetrical
Make the line on one side of your head using a reference point like the point of the eyebrow or the point of your side burn square on your temple where it starts to go down. Then instead of following the line all the way around the back to the other side, while looking in a mirror, take a long comb (or pencil or ruler) and put one end up to the line on the side you already cut with the rest of the comb pointing away from your face. Then roll the comb across your forehead to the other side and match up the uncut side with the cut side in the mirror. Hold your finger in that spot with the top of your fingernail marking where the line needs to go. Remove the comb and cut the line where your finger is. Now you have a line on each side and just follow it around to the back now.
After some time of doing it this way you'll be able to eye it out without the comb just using your finger. That's how I learned to do it. Been a barber/stylist since like 2011. Hope this helps.
Nuggets! 🙌🏽🤙🏾💈
🍗🍗🍗
Yoo so you use the 1 also to lighten the line for the 1/2 i should try that maybe it finaly helps me to remove that last line thanks!
Yeah open one guideline, closed one halfway up and half on the line. No matter what you do the one closed won’t take the line out
Do a JRL onyx clipper review ASAP!!
It’s coming up next 🫣
