in this video we're going to be doing a mid fade and I'm going to line up his
beard and we're going to take a little bit off the top with the shears and
without further ado let's get into the video if you're new to this channel and
want to learn how to cut new hairstyles subscribe to the barber style directory
we're going to begin this haircut by creating our bald guideline and this is
a mid fade so we're not going to go too high
and I've included the word descriptions on the screen with this
video just in case you're watching can't work or you can't have your phone on
loud
here we have the lever open and we're going to go up an inch now this is
the stock blade that came on the Clipper this is not the fade blade and here we
have the lever closed next we open the lever one notch we go up a little bit
more
and then you see me open the lever one more time
I'm going right up under that guideline I'm not going above it just right under
all right so here we have the number three guard to knock off the weight from
the ridge of you see it noticed I'm using my comb to keep that hair over on
that side because I don't want any to fall back over on the other side I'm not
trying to cut any of the hair so next we take the one guard with the lever
fully open and we go up about another inch you notice how I'm holding the
Clipper flush through his head I'm not really digging into his skin now we
fully close the lever and go up under that one okay
and then here you see me open the lever one time and go in between alright next
we take our half guard with the lever open one notch we're going up under that one
closed and here I fully close the lever
all right so we have the number two guard and we're going above that we're
going in between that number three and that one and a half so remember I use
the two guard to go in between the three and the one and a half
straight hair it blends pretty easily the only thing that you have to look for
is dark spots and then here we just have the one and a half guard and we're just
going with the lever half way and we're just cleaning up the dark spots
getting rid of that weight line and remember try not to raise your fade to
high and all we're doing right here is taking that one bar and doing some
touch-up work
and here I'm taking the number three guard and I'm going up to the reach so I use
the number three around the entire head
so right here I'm just wetting the hair and I'm getting ready to do some clipper
over comb
notice how I'm just trying to get that smooth transition
they're trying to clean all of that weight up and I take a safe approach I
just take off a little bit at a time I'm in no rush so I just take my time
because I don't want to take too much hair off you can take hair off but you
can't put it back on now I'm just about to wet the hair just to take a little
bit off top and I'm gonna be using my shears I'm just combing the hair in
different directions just to wet it all the way through so what I do now I just
he wants like a half inch off so all I do is just grab a section of hair and
then I comb it and just make it even all the way I take it from the front to the
back I'm just gonna let you watch
there's no fancy method just take your time
and just make sure it's even all the way across here you see the cross checking
and I'm going to the middle just to take a little bit more here I'm just making
sure the hair is all even
you guys one tip about fading Indian hair so don't be fooled sometimes you
may look at the haircut from an angle and think that it's a dark spot but his
hair is dense in some spots so make sure you're just looking at the hair from all
angles because you may think you have a line but it just may be the density of
his hair but here I'm just using the razor to put on some finishing touches
and I pretty much want to highlight the fading process so and this skip through
these parts but this is the finished product guys let me know what you think
in the comments thank you for watching and I will see you on the next video
