I've been cutting my own hair for about 7 years now and I always feel like I need to re-watch tutorials for a refresher when I'm planning on a deep fade. Good tips, very well explained.
Sergio, you are the man! Over here in the UK I’ve always wanted to be a barber but left it too late. Then during lockdown I had to start cutting my own hair. Thanks to you and Faded Culture tutorials, I now cut my own hair all the time, saving me £25 every 2 weeks. You are not only the best barber I’ve seen, but the way you explain every step is amazing. Thank you man
I've watched your self-cut tutorials before, and each time I watch them I learn something new. I've started cutting my own hair during the 2020 pandemic and it's all thanks to you Sergio.
@@FADEDCULTUREhey Sergio I had a question bro! I cut my first guide line with the trimmer & the top of my head is an opened guard number 8! How many guide lines should I cut in between & what sizes? I would like to continue using the trimmer as my first one but it’s hard to fade it all the way to an 8
Your videos have helped me a ton in self-cutting my own hair. I have even been doing it for some of my classmates that need haircuts. Can't thank you enough bro love the content.
literally started cutting my hair like a week ago, I’m loving it so far. Noones gonna be more invested in your hair than you yourself! Tip* buy yourself a normal mirror AND a 360 mirror. Face the normal mirror and use the 360 mirror to view back and sides. works perfect for me.
I just started cutting my own hair tonight. Man i got way more appreciation for barbers and respect for those who can almost effortlessly cut their own hair in less than 45min. I started at 7:10-finished at 10🤣 i came into it with all the tools thinking it was gon be quick. Them angles had me mad asl. Tryna figure out the motions was drivin me crazy. Almost called my barber for an emergency cut. My tips: have bright lighting, practice the motions with the safety guard FIRST, clear your area, and have a clear schedule.
I learn from faded culture how to do my own skin fade he’s the best barber ever. Now I don’t go to barber no more lol my fades looking good still mastering it thanks sergio 👍⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Well done sir! 💯 I've been cutting my own hair for 20yrs. Never made the vid bc I didn't want to deter from the shops money A couple tips to accent this very well put together video.. If u only have a basic set. Learning the flick can get ur blends. Two or 3 mirrors in the back will prevent any visual obstruction the clipper or hand may impose (but one is enough with some skill) If the mirror effect is messing u up sloww down (I used to close my eyes for a sec to regain my bearings) If ur nervous start low on the head to practice ur blends u can always remove more hair but it's kinda hard to put it back on. GG
I really appreciate this channel because I feel like many would shy away from teaching how to cut your own hair. Personally I made the decision to just buzz cut my hair from now on to save money and this is no offense to barbers but anything over 30 for a haircut is too much. I will still go to one if necessary but I will try not to. Once again thank you for these tutorials 💯💯💯
Man, I graduated from Cosmetology/Barber School and became licensed in 1999.. Have been doing my thing every since. BUT--I must say, after many continuing education courses, I've NEVER had things explained as well as you have in this tutorial. Thank you. Have you considered teaching, if you're not all ready?
I just ordered the Novah clipper combo and an electric razor like the one you showed. Thank you for the tutorial videos you've taught me alot.along. Getting the 360 mirror with led lights and I need the fade guard head strap so I can keep it str8. Keep up the good work you and your brothers.
This is one of the hardest things I've ever tried to do lol. It's so difficult but I feel like with enough practice it's possible. Also your tattoos are fire!
Bro I’ve been cutting my own hair since I was in 10th grade in 2010. And I gotta say, I just followed your instructions at this very moment, and I can’t stop smiling at how well it came out! Thanks again G! Keep up the good work
That fade is fire bro you did an awesome job keep up the good work and thanks for the step by step tutorial. Hopefully it will help me out. On my next haircut.
dope i had a better understanding of how to used my clipper properly with this video. thanks man i learned a lot. better than going to school everyday. very informative thank you. im a fan 🙌
Tried this today and it turned out great! Was quite difficult fading the back but definitely will improve over time hopefully... Thanks a lot bro you da man!
Hey bro thank you so much for every step and detailed instructions I’ve looked up so much videos but everyone tends to skip and not show the full blending. I really appreciate it this gives me confidence to cut my own hair now.
Thank you so much for your videos I'm only new to youtubers but since what I've seen I thought youtubers were people watching people make fools of themselves thats why I never watched TH-cam because all I see my kids watch are people trying to be comedians but you have to be the most realistic and genuine person I've seen and I love your artwork especially for me personally needed to learn as a beginner to cut my own hair and my kids this is truly a revelation bless up my mann
Would you say that lighting is probably the most crucial part to getting a good fade? Also are there any specific lights/ring lights that you recommend and how many would you recommend?
Yes you def need good lighting, what I actually use is a little headlight since I don’t really want to waste money rn but a lot of barbers do use ring lights. I’ve seen all the barbers that I’ve gone to they use only one ring light
Lighting is crucial. It has to be right! I’m still trying to figure it out since I cut from home. I feel that when the lighting is too bright, the fade looks better then what it really is. It’s either that or I have bad eyes lol. That’s just my opinion. Any input faded culture?
Lighting is a big factor in cutting hair. I see a lot of barbers using ring lights but for me honestly I’ve never liked them. I just use regular fluorescent lights the Bar bulb ones but I recommend you setting up a haircut on an off day just to play with lighting positions to see which feels most comfortable for your eyes.
Thank you for making these videos. I learned a lot from you. I would like to hear your opinion on the new babyliss fx3 trimmers. Should I buy it or go for the goldfx? I’m not a barber, I just do my own fade like yours and give some family members a haircut.
Bro I'm over here using a $40 Walgreens Phillips Norelco all-in-one and my fades and beard shaves come out sick bro. Shout out to Phillips for affordable durable shaving systems.
I’ve tried this a couple of times, but I’ve failed 😩 I think because my hair isn’t as dark, it’s much harder to see the guide lines, then I forget where the lines originally were… and it ends up being a mess with lines all over the place 😒
You are amazing! Love your tutorials! But self cutting your hair is 😯 wow!!’ You are Perfectionist ! Not all the barbers can cut their own hair! You are 👏 awesome 😉 love the way you and your brother cut hair! Professionals! 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
I have done 2 cuts I’m now doing my 3rd because I broke my ankle can’t really go to shops. I watch this as I go but so far both cuts were pretty good and they grew in really well I recommend trying it you’ll only get better. Great vid
Solid tutorial, I also like too watch a how too vid before i tighten up the fade , this is one I saved , bc this guy here, is a “how too” tighten up ur fade, on the spot MONEY …Thx ur a beast
Great video. Definitely one of the better haircutting videos I’ve watched. I’m newbie at cutting my hair and I’ll use this video as a point of reference.

I have an Oster Classic 76 and their professional T-Finisher, so all of the fading I have to do by eye with the trimmer. I really need to get a clipper with a lever. From what I see here, that will make my job way easier. Is the Oster Fast Feed a good choice?? Thanks And for anyone on the fence about switching to a straight razor, just do it. I’ve been shaving and shaping up my beard with a straight razor since I was about 18; once you get used to it you will never go back. It gives you a level of control that you just can’t get by any other method.
Awesome video. That's exactly how I do my fade. I've gotten really good at it and I enjoy it. Saves me so much time and money. Then I just try to keep up on it as often as possible and it's really easy. I love a clean fade! Who doesn't!? 😊
I’ve been cutting my hair just fades for 20 years and I’m just now starting to use the cordless clippers and man I wish I would’ve picked some up sooner. Might pick these up if they perform well.
Great Sergio, Iam watching you here from Brasil, great job. I started loke many other people here, cutting my own hair in 2020, now Iam trying to star the fade cut, your video was very intuitive, When you started, I was very worried about isong #0, but the final results was great, thanks a lot, cheers from Brasil, take care man, best regards
I have been cutting my hair since 2011 i have tried fades several time likebut it never uses to come this perfect & i didn't know the exact technique how to do it as well using the clipper mounts, & well today I'm goona try your technique today brother😎

More like $100

I've been cutting my hair since my dad stopped doing it. And every single time I think "Next time I'll go to a barber" lol
Lol it be like that man
Well done sir! 💯
I've been cutting my own hair for 20yrs.
Never made the vid bc I didn't want to deter from the shops money
A couple tips to accent this very well put together video..
If u only have a basic set. Learning the flick can get ur blends.
Two or 3 mirrors in the back will prevent any visual obstruction the clipper or hand may impose (but one is enough with some skill)
If the mirror effect is messing u up sloww down (I used to close my eyes for a sec to regain my bearings)
If ur nervous start low on the head to practice ur blends u can always remove more hair but it's kinda hard to put it back on.

Been trimming myself for a while, no where close to perfection. Your videos are motivation to perfection keep them coming bro
This fade is the 💣
Good stuff bro. Like how you explain what you doing and why you doing it. Thanks for making these videos fr.
Que grande eres mi hermano , it looks so easy but is not.
For sure it needs practice.
Thanks for this! About to place my order, they've been sitting in my cart too long. This sealed the deal for me. Appreciate you.

It is good to trim yourself and more when you are a good barber. I ADMIRE YOU
Thank you 🙏🏽
Sergio, there wasn't anything in the video I didn't like... you're absolutely phenomenal with your amazing technique... 👏👍👌
Damn you make it look super easy bro me being a barber I’ve been wanting to cut my own hair but nervous to mess myself up lol 😂
You gotta be willing to mess up bro. Lol 😂
Bro honestly the first couple gonna be rough that’s just how it is but after that u won’t ever need to go to a barber again so it’s worth it imo
Bro I'm over here using a $40 Walgreens Phillips Norelco all-in-one and my fades and beard shaves come out sick bro. Shout out to Phillips for affordable durable shaving systems.
Started cutting my own hair 2 weeks ago. Right now my blend game is horrible but im gonna keep practicing
I’ve tried this a couple of times, but I’ve failed 😩 I think because my hair isn’t as dark, it’s much harder to see the guide lines, then I forget where the lines originally were… and it ends up being a mess with lines all over the place 😒
Lol I’m sorry, I know how frustrating it can be but with time you’ll just know where the guidelines are even if you don’t see them that clear
Woooao! Excelente Sergio 👌 animo 👍
Wish I found out about the discount before I bought these😑
Thanks for your patience and everything is excellent I Learn it hopefully I Can apply to myself
Good bye $35 haircuts
Thank you Sergio..👌👍💈
Nice...Love the Fade!! 💕
Thanks so much !! 🙏🏽
If I attempted to do this, I'd wind up with an Afro and I don't even have long hair.

That's sharp my brother! Just ordered the Novah set. Appreciate you.
Right on!
Clean Work 👌🏽 A lot of Barbers cannot cut there own hair, only a few can. Those are usually the better Barbers ✂️❤️💈
I've been cutting my hair since 2022, it useful to save money, thanks for your tutorial sir
Bro you're a genius!!!!
Best channel!! 🔥
Same I've been cutting my hair as well. Very very relaxing to do as well.
This is the best fade tutorial I’ve ever seen. This sh*t is flame AF bro 🤙🏽
Best tutorial ever seen
Great video. Definitely one of the better haircutting videos I’ve watched. I’m newbie at cutting my hair and I’ll use this video as a point of reference.
Truly a professional job. I don't know if you are a trained barber, but if you aren\t, you should be.
Love your cuts guys. Respect from Turkey 🙌🏽 I'll try soon on my self cut 😅
Let us know how that goes lol. 🏴
Thanks man. I’ve been cutting my own hair since the pandemic. I have been giving myself a high skin fade, but it is really tedious with my clippers. I have an Oster Classic 76 and their professional T-Finisher, so all of the fading I have to do by eye with the trimmer. I really need to get a clipper with a lever. From what I see here, that will make my job way easier. Is the Oster Fast Feed a good choice??
Thanks
And for anyone on the fence about switching to a straight razor, just do it.
I’ve been shaving and shaping up my beard with a straight razor since I was about 18; once you get used to it you will never go back. It gives you a level of control that you just can’t get by any other method.
Mad clean! Especially for a self cut. Super impressive.
Thank you bro!
The best thing I ever did during Covid was learning how to cut my hair💯💯it's has save me a lot of money
