This guys got the skills that taught me how to cut my hair and save so much money .. 👍💇♂️
Thank you I appreciate your comment! More great content coming real soon! 😃
Save me money , and an awkward barber experience.
you do realise you're helping barbers and hairdressers go out of business right?
Alex Kouras I’ve just bought another new upgrade of clippers because Alex Wahl Seniors 👍
Great your putting people who are struggling to make a living out of business
I’ve been gradually going shorter on my first guideline. Started off with a 1.5, then a 1, now I’m down to a 0.5 and going up to a 3.5 to the top. Looks great! Thanks Alex!
Good keep Improving

I just gave myself my first haircut in my entire life due to quarantine. YOU helped me look good!. No way it would have came out really good without you. Thank you so much!!!. I followed most of these but wish I had followed the guidelines on the head. I feel I could have lined up both sides more equal to each other. I will check out your other videos for guidance on this. Besides this the haircut came out really dope. Thanks!!!.
I'm happy to help you! Thanks for your support! More great content coming soon! 😄
One of the best tutorials I've seen yet! And I have seen quite a few! I am getting ready to do my first cut in 48 hours, and I think I have the basics down enough to avoid any disasters. I hope.
How did the cut go out?
Your video will help me in a few weeks time to improve. Cut my own hair yesterday and made some small mistakes, but overall sense of liberation was well worth it. No more over priced haircuts for me, EVEN when things return to normal.
That quote at 6 min is exactly what I needed to hear today
Thank you!! Please continue making haircut vids, It's been 6 months of cutting my own hair because of this guy! Support and learn from him
Always on point with the haircut vids man. I've learned the most from you these past couple of months in terms of self cuts. Thank you!
Thanks for watching! More great content coming real soon! 😃
Hey Alex! This video is super helpful! Found your other video and really enjoyed your personality. Thanks for making it so easy to follow and entertaining. Hope you’re well!

Started cutting my own hair during lock down ...I've gotten pretty good at it ...wont go back to barbers thanks
Why were you locked down ? Riot in the chow hall ?
Here for a refresher/new ideas. Been cutting my own hair for 16 years and mostly do it by feel these days in about 20 mins. This guy is ABSOLUTELY correct about the big standing mirror and the contact lenses. I wear glasses and specifically put my contacts in for cutting my hair. Good luck gents
Cheaper just to wear my glasses.
Ive been cutting my own hair for a little over a decade but its always just been a really short cut with tapered sides because i found it easier to get everything even if i cut it short. And while i do highly recommend doing that at first until you get comfortable i wish i had started trying to style it sooner. But my hair is very wavy and even slightly curly in some areas so cutting it for a specific style is very difficult which is why i stopped getting it cut "professionally". Most "professionals" just dont know how to cut wavy or curly hair. Anyways this video and another of yours has been helpful this past year ever since i started getting more adventurous with my haircuts. If anyone is reading this who still gets their haircut "professionally" i highly recommend cutting your own hair. Its about $30 for an entry level Whal clipper (and they are perfectly fine, ive been using mine for the whole time ive been cutting my hair which is over 10 years at this point. I just replace the blades every 3-4 years and keep the clippers clean and oiled). So $30 and you never have to pay for another haircut again. For most people money is really tight these days and most places who do half decent haircuts are going to charge at least $30. So for the price of one hair cut you can cut your own hair for the rest of your life. And its YOUR HAIR so you know it better than anyone and once you get good at cutting it youll be able to cut it better than anyone else can. If your like me and you cut your hair about once ever 2 months then in about a year youll have the hang of it. And in about 3 years youll never want anyone else to cut your hair ever again and youll regret not learning to cut your own hair sooner.
Short story
Alex Kouras, Your own haircut tutorial is perfect.
Thanks for the tip especially the specs and contact lens one
Thanks for watching! More great content coming soon! 😃
Ive been cutting my own hair, then my fathers, then my brothers for years. I always recommend they wash their hair and that it is damp, not wet. And between cuts I pop the blade off and clean/oil it. Cutting your own hair is easy once you figure out what numbers you need where, but every hairstyle is different. Ive learned not everyone can pull off one hairstyle so I absolutely hate cutting my brothers hair. My dad's is easy, I just trim him every 2-3 weeks. Great tips though! Thanks brother!
Alex, great tutorial. Probably the best on the internet. Thanks.
Thanks for your support! More great content coming soon! 😄
I genuinely found this video to be informative and inspiring - Now I'm going to cut my hair :O I think the one thing I took out of this was the blending of the hairline - Glad I caught this before I risked anything.....
You got this! Patience... Thanks for watching! More great content coming soon! 😃
Great advice Alex! I've been following your videos and have been cutting my own hair for the past two years. I've been getting better but the back is still a little difficult.
At least I know that if I mess up, that I didn't pay a guy to mess it up.
Once again, total 100% talent.
Alright broheim, you earned my subscription. Keep the good content coming!
Thanks for your support! More great content coming soon! 😄

I find it easier if i held the 2nd miror myself. I could get closer to my 1st miror and see it beter. The miror i use isnt that heavy so no problems with shaking or anything. But i do enjoy cutting my own hair, im getting better everytime so its pretty awesome. I got the same hairstyle as you but i got very straight hair, no wavey hair or curly hair. I did the back with a set of beard trimmers and added another fade so the back would look cleaner, worked like a charm. Great vid again Alex

Thank you for not talking down to your viewers for not being professionals. So far this is the best video I've found for basic tips on how to use my clippers that doesn't expect me to already know all the terminology and everything. I'll be cutting my partner's hair, so thankfully we won't have to worry about the mirror set-up or bad vision once the glasses come off.
great job alex, been cutting my hair for over ten years but always struggled with blending. Any tips other than using half guard? Also, what equipment do you use? MODEL and brand, thanks!
Alex, great advice! You are very good, sir!
Thanks for watching! More great content coming real soon! 😃
Mr. Handsome is back.
This intro was much more natural, would prefer this over the ordinary intro.
I will keep this in mind! Thanks for watching! More great content coming real soon! 😃
Great videos : I have wavy hair like yours and cut my hair into a quiff going from long on top to shorter towards the back, when I comb the front of my hair forward you can see my scalp and a gap in my hair and doesn’t look as full , I’m going to to try growing it longer to see if it helps !!
Love the follow up videos. I need all the help I can get 😂
Ha haaaa
Awesome content man keep up the good work, excited to see more 🍿
Thanks for watching! More great content coming real soon! 😃
Loving this channel! Got my mrs to follow the cut using beard trimmer only and it turned out passable. Gonna get her to carry on practicing during lockdown and hopefully can save me money in the long term 💵
Without a doubt! Thanks for watching! More great content coming real soon! 😃
You are so funny!!! And very skilled!!! I have made all those mistakes in the course of 20 years cutting my own hair.
Thanks for teaching me new skills🤗
Thank you so much for making these videos!
I cut my own hair for the second time. The first one was just the tips to see how it went.
Waited a week and then cut it in half because my hair was pretty long. It went well!!!
My family and friends were impressed with the cut.
THANK YOU!!! x3
Awesome work! Thanks for watching! More great content coming soon! 😃
They just told you that, because you're family.
Or maybe he did a good job and they WERE impressed. Don't be a negative hater @ia7277.
Please do a video on turning shoulder length hair into a fade self haircut tutorial. My hairs grown too long and I want my fade back however there is no barbershops open. I would be so grateful. Thanks man, love you channel ❤️😊
Find your part line and section off your hair. Then use a #4 guard to remove all of the hair from the sides and back. Once you do this, you can start to fade using the guards I use. Thanks for watching! More great content coming real soon! 😃
Loved the last couple vids on cutting your hair. Please do one tapering the neck instead of boxing it if possible. Thanks man and great job.
Thanks for watching! More great content coming real soon! 😃
Great self hair cutting video Alex! Maybe you want to do a specific video on the equipment you use. Ceramic vs Metal blades and how to keep your clippers in top condition. After learning how to self hair cut, I don't think I'll ever visit a barber again. My son also get his haircuts from me. Awesome channel Alex!
Thank you I appreciate it! I have a self-haircut project coming out soon I think you will really enjoy. Thanks for watching! More great content coming soon! 😃
Bro I am F***ing dyingggggg. That mirror shaking was so me the first time I cut my hair lmfaooooooooo.
Alex: I'm not sure if I'm already in a position to cut my hair, I'll try, but I assure you, I had a lot of fun with your video. Greetings from Buenos Aires.
Everything in life seems difficult untill u finally do it.👏
im very interested in cutting my own hair and styling it how i like. what clipper do u recommend thats cheap but good qulaity. love your content ❤
Great advise not only for self haircut but life wisdom👍
Thanks for watching! More great content coming real soon! 😃
Good tips on the contacts - I’ve been wearing glasses a lot more and forgot that I should put on my contacts when I attempt to cut my hair for the first time. That would have been awkward.
Great tips! 👏🏼 Thanks so much 👍🏼
I cut my hair for the first time using you guide. Now im about to do my 3rd self hair cut I dont think ill ever go back to a barber lol. I cant cut my hair as good as you can but who know with practice maybe one day i can get close.
That's the spirit! Thanks for watching! More great videos coming out soon! 😄
The only guy who actually considered the fact that people with poor vision also would want to cut their own hair.
NICE tutorial men. Ur advice very effective thanks men
Thanks for watching! More great content coming real soon! 😃
You are so dreamy.... 😍💕
U make me smile 😊
Great advice thank you!
I've been cutting my own hair for decades and THE #1 mistake is..........coming home drunk and deciding to cut your hair.
AWESOME!! THANK YOU ALEX!!
My pleasure!!
Made the #7 and #8 mistake 😭... Now waiting to get back some volume to give a lil shape... And give some proper fade .... Ur videos r really useful 👍💯
Thank you Yash, glad you are enjoying the tips!
Hi Alex, which is the best model hair clipper / trimmer you would recommend for a beginner, for self hair cut ? Hope this message reaches you... with all wishes, Awaiting your response,
I solved the mirror problem by attaching my old bathroom mirror to the back. Now I have a 3D mirror system as soon as I open the side panels of the new cabinet slightly. Probably the best thing you can do when you cut your own hair. But it is also very important that you put everything at the right height.
great tips bro. thanks!
Thank You 💯
How about some info on the clipper guide numbers !
Lol😂 I using a hand held mirror as you were saying don’t use it lol
I use my phone camera as the mirror 😅
Well...did not ONCE question how I was gonna do this being deeply shortsighted when I bought the clips... That last tip saved me
Man, your videos are great

a Solution for #10
when working on the sides and back with a buzzer, simply tip Your glasses on your head. Put the ear loop above your temple, but angle it to where you can comfortable see. Just did it, and gave myself the best fade ive ever had. professional or self lol
Do i need chordless for fades or not necessary? Wut fo u think?
Lockdown period of this corona forced me to learn self hair cutting,thanks bro, once I tried big success 👌✌️👏💪🏼👍
Thanks for watching! More great content coming real soon! 😃
@@AlexKouras your trimmer name pls what is the best trimmer as u suggested
How much tall is your wall mirror for cutting back of the head bec I can't find proper wall mirror . I don't have some legde in bathroom where I can put it when needed for cutting hair so I would have to put it on floor
I used those round mirrors once that I could grip the stem of and used that to cut the back and sides of my hair, never went crazy to cut too much off but the cut turned out pretty decent lmao
Great video! Thanks!
Hi Alex what machine do you use
Hi Alex! Thanks for the video I really learned a lot..I’ve been doing my own hair for every 3 years already this vid was very good explained..
thank you! 👍👍👍.
Thanks for watching! More great content coming real soon! 😃
Top Man! Thank you very much.
You're welcome!
Aww man you got me with the #9 😂 cause I wear glasses and that’s a hassle for me but luckily I wear contacts too
Just slowly and carefully do the sides above your ears and then put the glasses back on and do the rest of the cut. Easy.
Great content, thanks
Where can I buy that clipper that you used ? Model? Brand name ? and the number of the adopter on the clipper?
Thnks for tips man.. i sub. My hair is just like you but i never used comb even when i cut it my self.
You are super ! Thank you for your videos !
Hey I have one question : can I use the trimmer in the largest position possible to cut my top part of my hair when dry (that is in the fact it is straight)
You're very talented at cutting your own hair. 🤩 Looks great! I'm a woman with way TOO MUCH hair and I think about shaving all my hair off. I could make a giant wig off all my hair! 😩
I cut me own hair today.
I never did it before.
It was very difficult and I thought I'd screw it up.
I used a blunt small kitchen scissors only and a mirror. Wet hair beforehand.
I didn't cut it too tight. top 3-4 cm... Sides and back about 2 cms. I managed to a shape around the ears and cut the back straight by feel.
That's the key.
You don't need an electric clippers.
I used a razor over and back on my neck which was wet beforehand and rubbed my neck with plenty of hand sanitizer alcohol afterwards.
Nice vid. Thanks broseph.
looks perfect!
Thanks 👍
I tried cuting my hair once before but my scalp was sore after it and I don't know what I did wrong. I do know that my hair got caught on the clippers a few times so how do I avoid that?
Excellent. Many thanks. Could you tell me, I have Wahl beard trimmers for my goatee. Can I use them to do a no. 3 buzz cut all over without purchasing a set of hair clippers? They do come included with hair combs for haircuts, but for buzz cuts? I’m in my 60s, and much of my hair is now gone - but still some on top. Thanking you. Dave, Australia
I don't see why it wouldn't work. My first self-haircuts 10 years ago were done using a cheap beard trimmer. It should work just fine! Thanks for your support! More great content coming soon! 😄
Alex Kouras I tried it. It worked surprisingly well and didn’t take too long. No unevenness and the trimmer got around the ears with relative ease (without having to pull them down). Many thanks, Alex. 👍
awesome Video!!
Good video!!👍🏼😎

Hii sir..sir can i cut my hair with nova nht1076 trimmer..
Plzz suggest me..thanks
I cut my hair for the first time a couple weeks ago and I had to use a handheld mirror to cut the back and sides😂now I bought a 3 way mirror so I should be set
Hopefully that works better! Thanks for watching! More great content coming real soon! 😃
Thanks for helping saving bucks👍
Very good video. You are funny, without trying hard. I liked the sketches you have, as I can identify with these mistakes.
That's great ♥️👍🏻

Great tips, especially the mirror tip
Thank you
I've been cutting my own hair for 20 years and people still don't believe me which I take as a compliment because I must have done a good enough job for them to think a professional did it 😃
