in this video I'm gonna show you guys an easy way to do a high-top fade or a flat
top kid and play whatever you want to call it it's all the same and we're
going to get into it right now if you're new to this channel and want to learn
how to cut new hairstyles subscribe to the barber style directory first thing
that we're gonna do to start off this haircut is create the bald guideline
around the entire head now I'm using the same method that I used in the previous
video I'll put the link up above so I'm only going to use one guard to do this
entire thing we're just making our bald guideline even and then here we take the
number zero guard and the lever is fully open and I'm gonna go up to the ridge of
his head so I'm debulking right now and notice how I hold the Clipper flush
I'm basically holding the Clipper parallel with the shape of his head I'm
not really digging into it and that's why as you can see on this angle right
here I'm holding it flat I'm not digging into the skin
hopefully that angle show you guys what I'm trying to do okay so here we take
the lever fully open and we're gonna go up an inch
notice how I'm using my thumb to pull the skin so that way I get a nice tight
blend
and now here the lever is fully closed and I'm going up knocking that bald
guideline out okay here you see me open the lever halfway and
this should knock out the rest of that guideline
I think this is a pretty straightforward method but keep watching and let me know
what you think
okay here the lever is fully closed
and then next we're gonna open the lever slightly and we're going in between that
zero open and zero closed I know some of you may be thinking right now man how
am I gonna get that bulk away from the top of the head I'm gonna show you guys
in just a sec so if you're fading if you're cutting along with the video
don't panic I want to show you in just a second what I'm gonna do right now is
take the lever fully open and I'm gonna knock out that faint line that you see
and notice how I'm using the corner of my blades so now I'm gonna show you how
to get rid of that bulk we're gonna do clipper over comb and a lot of people
are scared of this method but you only cut how much hair you feed into the comb
so if you feel like you grab too much hair with a comb then just pull the comb
out of the hair put it in again so that way you control how much hair that
you feed into the comb and you can always start out with the lever
open I recommend if you're not used to doing that start out with the lever open
and then gradually close when you get more comfortable with
ok so now we're going to shape up this side of the head don't be scared to do
this guy's the only thing you have to do is just keep a steady hand here you see
me shaping up the back of the head
see how I'm keeping the clipper parallel with the shape of his head
I'm keeping it flat at an angle
and then here you see me doing some clipper over comb and the back of his
head just to get rid of that weight
and I showed you guys this side from the side angles because I want you to see
the angle that I have the blade so maybe this is this will help you guys when
you're fading so really all I want you to pay attention to on this side is how
angling the blade to his head
here we have the zero guard back on again and guys like I said this is a
simple fade method you can see the blend already coming together if you guys have
tried this method already comment below and let me know what you think of the
method but what I recommend I always tell people the only way you're gonna
learn how to cut hair is about experience so give somebody that trust
you to cut their hair and just pull up this video and just go through the
second you step by step you can always rewind the video experience is the best
teacher I tell anybody that experienced as always it's always the best teacher
so you can watch this video a hundred times but if you don't apply it then
you'll never learn
don't be scared to cut
and here you see me just getting rid of some of that weight and then now
we're shaping up the front
and the key to doing this guys is just take your time isn't you're in no
rush just take your time okay and now we're gonna proceed on with the lineup
notice how I'm trying to keep everything as natural as possible
I know some people may have went a little higher into her his hair is dark
but I just don't believe in pushing peoples line bad guys I would say find
that balance between natural and sharp and this is a very important step I
always stress this using the razor will make the hairline last at least three
three or four more days it gets those fine hairs that the Clipper can't get
the trimmer and as you can see I used enhancements on his hairline so
vote up above yes or no if you want me to keep using enhancements in the videos
I'm gonna talk more about enhancements in my future videos but this is actually
my first time using this so let me know what you guys think if you want me to
keep using them I promise I'll keep using just vote above so let me know
what you guys think of this cut in the comments and I will see you guys on the
next video thanks for watching
