If you’re new to my channel, my name is Alex Kouras. I started cutting my own hair when I was 13, back in 2008. This was during the Windows 99 era-dial-up internet, when UA-cam was a dating site, and the global economy got slapped. Hard. Because of it, my mom lost her job for nearly three years, and during that time, my dad had to support her, me, and my two brothers all on his own.
I started cutting my hair as a way to help my family save money because I was tired of hearing my parents argue about finances and wanted to do something to make things easier for them. After getting a few bad haircuts at Supercuts, I knew this was the best way I could help.
With that being said, this channel does not do my past any justice. I wish I could have recorded my first handful of self-haircuts so you could see just how garbage they were. I got made fun of a lot because of it in middle school-even by some of the moms from the kids on my soccer team! Rightfully so... They were pretty bad.
Now, over 15 years later, I share content that teaches millions of people every month in more than 165 countries how to save time and money by mastering self-haircuts from the comfort of your own home. It’s not a hard skill to learn, but like anything in life, if you make it a priority and stay committed, you can succeed without letting the tough times make you quit.
I had every reason to quit when I got started. No money. No mentor. No UA-cam. No clippers, only a $20 Remington beard trimmer. I was literally just a little kid who cared way more about my family's well-being than any bit of harsh criticism I could get as a result. Times have changed since 2008 and you now have an opportunity of a lifetime with my channel.
Please know, I’m here to help you on your self-haircut journey in any way I can. Self-haircuts are fun, an awesome skill to have, and the best way to avoid ever paying for a barber again!

You gone wrong or you're precious bald naturally?
@@スーパーマーク i just wante to be funny i think 🤫i got some hair
@@noobfromhell563I see 🤣
I followed this tutorial today. It was my first self haircut and it took over 2 hours. I was surprised at how good the fade came out, but I’m struggling to make the bulk on top look good. I need more practice with the thinning sheers. Thanks for making these videos!
Thanks for making these! I've cut my hair in the past (and have been since March 2020), but only completely shaving it with no guard -- and all by touch since I didn't have a mirror setup. Today was the first time I've tried doing it with a fade (and the top was finger length already, so I didn't touch it). I can tell this is going to take some practice. I have a tri-fold mirror and I can see all around, but figuring out what direction to turn the clippers to make it go the way I want it to in the mirror has been ... challenging. But worth it in the end, turned out way better than I thought my first try would. :) Thanks for all the tips!
I've been cutting my hair for two years now and been watching all your videos on self cuts. I appreciate the content and my cuts come out fresh because you give out the best tutorials on cutting hair. thanks and much love brother!
Thanks a lot for your work, I watched your video few times and finally cut my own hair. It was not my first time cutting hair, I do it often on my kids hairs but so I know the basics but to do it on myself was a bit of a struggle. Luckily I have read few comments on taking my time doing this so Sunday evening I blocked two hours only for myself. The biggest challenge was operating my own hand in the two mirrors 😅 but finally I got it done. My wife said it was similar cut to the one that my barber used to cut so I could call it a success 🎉
Thank you for all of these videos. Those clippers you use work great! Thank you for suggesting them.
I followed your video and cut my own fade for the first time. I actually don't hate it and didnt have to shave my head. Thanks!
The 1.5 is crooked because its meant for wahl clippers, I have the same setup it just doesnt fit properly
Can u do a video with a 0-3mm fade?
Nice Video 👍🏻
i can imagine that cutting own self hair can be addicting. i have to let grow up my hair for about 2 weeks. Then i try my first time to make a fade, wish me luck
Pls do a number 1 fade tutorial with no 1.5 guard, thanks!
maybe this one is what you want ua-cam.com/video/6HtWE6-TxNA/v-deo.html
Just buy a 1.5 you wil save time instead of going around 1.5
Just wanted to let you know. I got real scared when you pulled those shears out but was able to pull out off with other things I learned in your other videos. Thank you for what you do!
Great video and superb music bro, where do I get the music?
Getting better and better!!!!
Awesome job, that’s not an easy cut. Looks great 👍🏻
I need to learn this trick
You should use a shaver next cut and bring the fade right to the skin
Bro can you make tutorial with shaver too i want to see your skin at very 0mm
Just do a #3 or 4 on sides and #7or 8 on top looks good it's only hair
Pretty much what I do mate. Takes 5 minutes and looks OK. Not as good as Alex but only 5 minutes of effort once a month.
can make a list steps guards :D
Riquest shaving hair armpit .
looks perfect😮
10:00 HI QUESTION HOW DO YOU CUT THE TOP HAIR and the LENGTH
Please help
Nice work, always killing the cuts 🔥🔥
I have the same clipper, where can I buy the 0.5 guard?
great video!!👍
The 0 guard and lever full open , was kinda the same .. wouldn’t going zero to 1 guard , better when u blend do u use like 1.5 for the transition from guard 1 , guard 2 ?
Yes I usually use the #1.5 guard to remove the hard line between the #1 and #2 guard
Can you give nice cuts like Crew cut or French crop for receiding hair line ??
What should you do if your hair is long around a 7 guard and want to do this cut?
Why do you use wahl on this particular clipper?
Coconut oil after shower. Massage that into scalp 👍🏻
What's the name of the song in the bakgrund i wanna hear it while I try out your skills while I cut my hair
wow keep it up
🔥🔥
🔥🔥🔥🔥
Whats that trap beat being used in the background?
thx man I cut my own hair for 5 months
👌👌👌
anyone know if there's a difference between the clipper he uses vs a clipper that uses a dial? I have a woner clipper from amazon, are those clipper better, and if so in what way?
They are not necessarily better or worse. The one with the dial that you got has a different mechanism of closing or opening the clipper blades. The one he has in the video uses a lever that he moves up and down. It's up to you to judge how the ring has to be in order to copy the way he has it open or closed.
Greek last name. You're from Greece bro?
Yes sir
The 0.5 guard and 1.5 guard actually cut longer than the 1 guard closed and the 2 guard closed. That's by design.
Huh
@@Tonayez the 1 guard closed cuts more hair than the 0.5 guard open. Also, the 2 guard closed, cuts more hair than the 1.5 guard open. This is true for all guard systems regardless of company. So to get rid of the hardliners better with the transition guards, you have to open up the lever slowly until the hardline is erased.
@@dhaivat848 it always depends what Clippers your using. Mine is pretty much even rather than it being longer somehow.
@@jakelamotta2387 yea I guess
I don't understand why you can't just have one guideline , let's say the sides on a 3 clipper, and fading down to a 2 at the bottom. I don't do the baldness on the side.
This is confusing..why did u record the mistake u made.thst throws me off
clean comb over
✨✨😀
In my area they charge $50 for this type of fade. $80 if you also want the beard shaved or trimmed. Better to learn your self
I wouldn't weae this style if someone paid me
Nah I just completely fucked my hair up
You look like tommy furry
Г
not easy
DO NOT cut your own hair if you don’t have your mirrors set up properly.
👍
I cut my own hair without a mirror but it's a simple 2 back and sides, 7 on top, and a 4 just to blend in the top with the sides. It's a simple cut where you can just go by feel. The sort of cuts Alex does is way too professional and time consuming for a lazy SOB like me.
