1. pressing too hard 2. negative gapping 3. incorrect angling 4. creating lines without references 5. not brushing/combing 6. lining up unevenly 7. pushing back hairlines 8. lining up rounded corners 9. excessive cutting until next time future barbers!

Been cutting my own hair for almost 30 yrs and learned these same techniques over time, I wish there were videos like this back then, all the beginner and home barbers this man is dropping jewels 💎
It's refreshing to see a brother speak publicly without saying the word "uh" in every sentence. Your words were well placed and thought out. Keep up the good work, and thanks for the tips.
Refreshing to hear a well spoken brother. I agree there is no 'uh' nor 'uhm' or 'you know what I'm sayin' and frequent use of slangs. He sounds intelligent and his message is clear and easy to understand.
Your zero-gapping advice is spot on. There is a lot of misinformation out there. I followed another video and adjusted my blades with no space, tested it on my arm, and it cut me immediately. I readjusted the cutting blade to slightly below and now they are perfect... cutting sharp enough with no nicks.
New barbers try to get crisp lineups and understand the term zero-gap meaning that the cutting blade and the still blades are level. They shouldn’t be and we used proved this by putting shaving cream on inflated ballons and asked students to create a front hairline design on the surface of the ballon with their zero-gapped trimmers and clippers. After they wiped the shaving cream off their faces they understood what their clients feel. That’s a lot less painful than cutting your arm but it’s a similar result. I hope others new barbers read your comment. Best wishes… 💈❤️
Perspective! Helped me the most since the client does usually look at me like “did you just mess up?” so i was kinda of insecure of stepping back looking from different angles once the client was walking away i noticed i could’ve done a better job if I had only walked around the head looking for different perspective. And also excessive brushing a lil ocd in my case. Thank you
I like what you said about perspective, “You have to constantly change it to make sure the moves you made were the right moves to make”. Can apply that to both barbering and life, a lot of jewels dropped here. Thank you 👌🏾
Always been interested in cutting hair. I figured I'd learn on my own son head so i took it RUclips before actually ever going in on him just so i can see how to go about it correctly, safely & not leaving my kid bogus lol. Ive seen alot of tutorials weeks on weeks worth & only up until i came across some of your videos did i feel comfortable enough watching em bc i really do feel like im taking something away from each video & learning clearly. I am now binge watching every video you ever made lol & i feel confident in my progressing barber talents 😊
Appreciate the detail you go into explaining the rights and wrong of a proper lineup. Too many barbers go ahead and do something without truly understanding why things need to be a certain way. Wish i found your page earlier, dope stuff
I’m halfway through barber college getting my barbers degree and I absolutely love this I stumbled on this I subscribed and I will be definitely watching your videos thank you
Yea man that can happen. I've been cutting my own hair since the age of 21 and I'm 33. You will need 2 important things...Patience and Confidence because not having those things in your mind is going to cause you to be afraid to try it which will definitely cause you to make many errors
@@realfacts1021 I definitely understand that man but going to different barbers will probably make it worse because the way you think it needs to be done may be seen differently by them
You do an EXCELLENT job bro with your technical & communication skills!! Do you have a video that you discuss point 4 (creating lines with reference points)? Thanks again for sharing your knowledge It is very inspirational to see your growth / journey! Many continued blessings to you!!
Loved the vid. Great intell. Resting the finger and angling top blade at 90° was an ingenious suggestion! Thank you! Very helpful as I can be heavy handed with clients.
Yo started watch this because I have been cutting my hair since college and for the past 20 something years I have been cutting my kids hair as well. So now I'm in that stage in life of a change in things and want to start cutting hair for a business. I'm south of Colorado where have Fort Lewis College and there is not alot of barbers but one or two that cut the black athletes here so I wanted to change that look at class to take and get it moving forward.
Great video. Super necessary for anyone that is cutting hair to watch this video. I’ve definitely picked up some pointers I never realized before I was even doing. Thanks 💪🏼
Great video! Nowadays, im what the millenials would call an old head, but I've been cutting my own head for 27 years and I learned something new from this young guy. Good tips
Future barber here. Thanks very much!!! Changing perspective and angling really helped me out. I realized changing perspective is something I fail to do and I think that’s where my hairlines go left!!! 🎉❤❤
Also glance away from ur cut every 30 seconds. I remember before I went to barber school I thought every barber just liked looking at everybody when it fact it's a technique so you won't develop tunnel vision. We were taught if we run into an obstacle turn around drop ur comb in the barbercide, clean off your clippers, retrieve your comb then turn back to the cut. Trust me it works. Quick restart now it's fresh to you and you will definitely see your problem areas. Wish u all success!
The sound and the editing on your videos are on another level. Excellent info. I struggle with finger placement it just feels unnatural to me for some reason.
This is an excellent video to learn various techniques. This man make leaning easy. He explains how to and and the reason why to hold the clippers a certain way.
Big ups from Toronto ! Excellent content my brotha. The way you break down your videos is really good. This vid was crazy helpful. Keep up the great work. 👍🏾
Great vid, great quality and editing, very informative, love your mellow yet professional vibe. I cut myself but have definitely taken some tips from you bro. You got a sub (and I barely sub to anyone lol). Love from Spain broski 🇯🇲🇬🇧
Hello, I'm a single mom that's trying to cut my son's hair. Due to the pandemic I'm unable to take him to the barber. By any chance could you please put out some at home mom friendly videos for moms who are trying to cut their sons hair? Your tips in this video is logical. Thank you.
I'm literally watching this vid after I got home and seen red cut marks all over my hairline when I clearly told the barber I have sensitive skin now I'm finna learn how to lineup my own
I’m right handed and I use my wahl detailer to make the corners on the top of the forehead I have more trouble making the corners sharp on the right side of people head because I have to hold the trimmer on a different angle
Hey! I take my son in for his hair cuts. I love how his barber does him but I don’t like how he lines up his hair line so high.. is it possible to leave it where it’s grown out at or is that not a thing? I need help before asking him to do so 😭
Notification Squad wassup! Thanks for all the support guys 🙌🏾

Great tips and good reminders on doing line ups. thanks
1. pressing too hard
2. negative gapping
3. incorrect angling
4. creating lines without references
5. not brushing/combing
6. lining up unevenly
7. pushing back hairlines
8. lining up rounded corners
9. excessive cutting
until next time future barbers!

Do you not notice all the edited cuts in the video? Why do you think that is?

I readjusted the cutting blade to slightly below and now they are perfect... cutting sharp enough with no nicks.
Literally have 7 cuts on my hand lmao

The reference points and the finger under the clippers helped 1000%.
Thanks again and Peace and blessing!!!!!!

Appreciate the detail you go into explaining the rights and wrong of a proper lineup. Too many barbers go ahead and do something without truly understanding why things need to be a certain way. Wish i found your page earlier, dope stuff
you said it bro. It's important to know what to do and what not to do to efficiently understand why you do.
Definitely helped. I was bad about taking the hairline too far back and pressing against the skin. I appreciate you my man. Excellent video.
Just started cutting my own hair. This was very helpful. Master class level.
I’m halfway through barber college getting my barbers degree and I absolutely love this I stumbled on this I subscribed and I will be definitely watching your videos thank you
This is so valuable. Everyone who cuts new and old should be watching this 👍🏼

I like the video before it started. Love the fact you took the time out to put all of this information together
