great cut, and awesome to see as a less experienced person cutting from home. I'm nervous to do a bald fade, so i end up doing cuts like this often because its easier, but still helps me work on my skills.
this is the cut i always get, but the fade lower with a #1 instead of a 2 guard. and the taper slightly higher with a burst style so the c cups are dark it suits me well , clean cut bro
BARBER/STYLIST PSA!!! Thank you for this comment, and below you will find something I drafted specifically as it pertained to thinning shears and their use for specific types of clients _ NOT ALL OF THEM.... yes it's long.... but, it's necessary....also, this is TH-cam, not a college syllabus...skip it if you don't want to read it and comment if it resonated one bit... Agreed, but there are some barbers who get a little bit too trigger happy with them... and I have to say, that's probably one of my biggest pet peeves and based on some bad experiences, a definite moment of cringe worth anxiety as a viewer. Issue is that these barbers, or "stylists" as they have self proclaimed themselves, don't just stop at the fade, which I agree is a great method in achieving that final blend from the clipper work for a disconnected cut; to be fair, as well, some highly trained ones are able to accomplish the same thing with regular shears or clipper over comb... regardless, I'm with you....but there are a TON of barbers I have seen who could absolutely perform a hack job on a client with his exact hair profile - something straight and basic, with a bit of a thinner texture and mild areas of recession/thinning, which has always been stigmatized, but something I think all men should at least be comfortable speaking with their barber about - no one is expecting them to embrace the Bic bald or start researching flights to Turkey....IYKYK.... anyways,, the clueless reasoning around doing that is, or so they idiotically claim, is to reduce bulk and create texture...well, maybe for someone with extremely thick hair, or someone going for a longer, more complex cut - for the record, I am not a barber or stylist, but I have eyes and love my hair, especially as I get older, you hold onto it with dear life...they go further to claim that it allows them to style easier, and some go as far as to touch the crown...I will leave that topic as I will turn this short story into a full out novel...followers of Beardbrand Alliance should know exactly what I'm talking about.... either way, all it does is effectively shred the client's top hair around the crown and frontal lobe, the two most notorious areas that male patterned baldness tend to attack, essentially destroy all the fresh ends that the OG shears created when ridding of the dead ones, and, the moment of horror, expose their scalp and make them feel like they have lost half of the thickness and fullness they may have had up top.... they truly notice this after taking a shower and drying off their hair, especially under one of those unflattering LED light set ups that you would expect in either a grade-school auditorium or on the surgery bed at the hospital, and realize their entire (Snow White) scalp its fully exposed, and they spend the next hour crying and googling items such as how fast men's hair grows, products to improve thickness/texture (probably end up ordering some of those fibers, along with the Rogaine for free shipping),, book a virtual doctor sesh for Propecia and last, but DEFINITELY, not least, looking up new local barbers....IYKYK (again).... #DrusViewz TLDR: Nothing about this topic should be condensed further than the spiel above, as it would either remove context orr remove other key areas all imperative for making the point intended....especially if you're aa barber or stylist who specializes in men's hair... I am hopefully saving men's hair coverage, one haircut at a time, and I don't even get paid for this...I'm a friggin' marketer, but also a thought contributor....so follow me @drustill on every platform or at the hash above (might as well plug myself following this dissertation.. Happy cutting!
Bro I got a question, I’m a learning barber trying to learn How come on the back you go with the 1 guard closed But on the taper you do a 1 guard open first ?
So that comb is equivalent to the 1 guard plus you opening the 1/2 no guard on your clippers would just make it 1 1/2 .. but you did a 2 open and to take of that line wouldn't it be a 2 close? But you used a 1 1/2 🤔
a shadow fade is really any 2 preferred guards faded together that doesn’t go down to skin.. when do mine I do 2 open all the way to 1.5 closed, which is a 1 to 2 fade.
One of my favorite BARBERS!
Love that cut Dre, looks awesome! Like the messed-up look on the top. It's one of my favorites. Keep up the great work, love what you're doin!
great cut, and awesome to see as a less experienced person cutting from home. I'm nervous to do a bald fade, so i end up doing cuts like this often because its easier, but still helps me work on my skills.

Bro I got a question, I’m a learning barber trying to learn
How come on the back you go with the 1 guard closed
But on the taper you do a 1 guard open first ?

Thank you for this tutorial, really helpful, can you tell us what is the brand or the type of FADE brush you were using?
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥📖📖📖📖
So that comb is equivalent to the 1 guard plus you opening the 1/2 no guard on your clippers would just make it 1 1/2 .. but you did a 2 open and to take of that line wouldn't it be a 2 close? But you used a 1 1/2 🤔
I thought a shadow fade was a .5 fade and if you want you could taper the sides or leave it natural
a shadow fade is really any 2 preferred guards faded together that doesn’t go down to skin.. when do mine I do 2 open all the way to 1.5 closed, which is a 1 to 2 fade.
This isn't a shadow fade my b 😅😂. That looks like a fade with a taper.
ur not a barber my guy
Should I zero gap my clipper for a shadow fade?@@yayablendz
