DISCOUNTED BUNDLE: amzn.to/4bbmQwo - Clean, lubricate, and zero gap any clippers or trimmers with this 4 minute tutorial.
NOTE: Some clippers my require more force to get the two blades exactly flush together. In these cases, maneuver the small piece inside the machine onto which the small blade latches. In my video it is that small black piece. Moving that just a bit can help you align the two blades perfectly. Be careful not to apply too much force; it can break, of course.

Out of all the videos I have watched, no one else explained things in so much detail as you did. Thanks for the video!
Saving Money, thanks for that comment. My pleasure. Be sure to share!
Dude you just saved me time and money from returning some clippers and buying more expensive ones. My old ones broke that I've had for years and bought some inexpensive ones and 1st thing I noticed was they didn't adjust as short as my old ones. Started looking for other clippers online and kept seeing the term zero gap and looked it up on UA-cam and your video was the 1st I saw. Reopened the clippers I had packaged back up and did as u said and they are just as good as my old clippers that I really liked. Thanks so much for the help!!!
Nice and simple for a lady cutting her own hair in the pandemic. Thank you💃🏾👍🏾
Hi this really helped me with getting a bald line btw I liked commented and shared thanks keep up the good work
Very helpful video. I have been cutting my own hair to save a little money and I needed to change the blades. Thank you.
Man I appreciate this video! I'm pretty new to cutting and I have these same exact Andis clippers and had no idea that you could zero gap these... And once I seen your video and did it, that guideline came out with no problem. And I been struggling cutting my own guideline for months! (💯 billion likes from me bruh)
I don't think you can do it the same way with the T Blade Taper Clippers a Lil Different
You helped me fix my Remington! Thanks for the help man. Mine needed oil
Thank you so very much Did this and my clippers work great Thank you for the instruction very easy to understand
A very clear, concise and informative video. A Very good educator!
Thanks and tip at 1:38 solved my problem informing us to have the 2 curved parts pointed to each other. When I 1st put it back together the smaller blade I had it curved away was from the larger blade. Thanks again
Thanks for explanation! Recommend using a #2 phillips screwdriver to prevent stripping heads of screws and better control.
Was about to go buy another trimmer, will try this instead.. Much appreciated, thank you 👍🏻
On the whal home cut pro. You can push it all the way. All you do is loosen the two screws push the blade back all the way and tighten while holding or pressing against countertop. Then take your fingernail and make sure you feel the bottom blade before the top(the one that moves). When cutting hair don’t press too hard or it can scratch. I just did this for the first time and the results were unbelievable. The clippers cut like a razor now.
You are a super star, thanks for your video it helped me fix mine :)
Thanks for taking your time it was very helpful
Great video brother, quick and very well explained 👍
Ismael Castillo, I appreciate that! 👍🏼
got to get me some of that barber oil.. I always thought that was what generous barbers put in their hand before putting that 10/40 on my hair. Personally I think clipper blade oil works a lot better on blades LOL As to zero gap yup just make sure your rail that sets the fader is not wobbling or you may still do damage to your customer.
Great vid, worked perfectly for me
Thanks for your helpful video.
Great video this really helps.
Great video, very informative!
Thank you your video was very helpful.

মেশিন খুলে বিশাল বিপদে পড়েছিলাম ভাই আপনার ভিডিও থেকে অনেক উপকৃত হয়েছি ধন্যবাদ
Just got my babyliss fx trimmers and liner, had to 0 gap them to make sure I can see different lines when using different guards, let’s hope this helps
Excuse me which is the top blade and which is the bottom blade. Is the bottom blade the one that makes contact with the client and the top blade the one facing you?
Thanks for sharing!!
Thanks for this video
Thanks
It's done bro thanks 🎉
Love from India🇮🇳 👍👍
Which one is the “lower” blade. Or rather, which one is the sharper one? Is the sharper one the one that has many more, smaller, tips?
Thanks man u the best
Well done
I have a pair of these same clippers that need to be zero gapped, and the lever tightened as well.
U lazy
@@marjonyoung305 Ikr, literally a one minute job haha.
I appreciate the help buddy you explained something I needed to know👍🏽
Great video! Easy to see what you were doing, clear instructions and not a bunch of over explaining or annoying music.
The music is annoying
I will try this on my clippers... Thank you
Hey I appreciate it!!
Can I use it for guidelines and then put it back to normal position? and Does it take warranty?
Thanks for this video sir ☆★
parallel jinx, my pleasure
Can I use a zero gap razor to get a look that resembles a slight grey on top after wet shaving it all off?
I'm mostly bald but I l prefer the grey on top of my head that comes after 2-4 days of wet shaving. I'm wondering if this is a good strategy.
Every time I tried to zero gap my speedmastwers when I screwed on the front blade the second one just fell out what do I do
Just done mine 👍
sunil dutt, awesome. Thanks for commenting
Perfect man
thank you
I dropped my Andis easy cut and now they are Jake Brake loud. Any help on re-adjustments
Tighten, oil, and straighten the blades
Seems easy. So if all you need to do is zero gap the blade, you would just have to loosen the two main screws and adjust the position, and you don't need to take it all apart, correct (like, say, on a brand new clipper)? Also, since you said to still have the top blade extend *slightly* further than the bottom blade, "zero gap" would really be "tiny gap", where "tiny" is something like 1/4 mm?
Nice video! So...just did it with mine...just to be sure..the little blade just go over the pivot right? and the big blade goes on top and when screwed this one secures the little one? am i correct?
VIC CAMPOS, thanks! If I understood you correctly, then yes, that sounds right
Which one is upper blade and lower blade???
Thank you
My pleasure
This music is perhaps from a midnight bar- fight movie when everyone is drunk and throws chairs at one another. otherwise good video. Thanks to the close up shot, the camera is very focused.
what if my clipper has a spring so it makes it hard to 0 gap?
You are so awesome
Thank you for this video bcuz I now know how to fix my clippers
Janet Bullock, really glad to hear that, thanks for your comment
And where do you put the plastic bar?
Great video! But yeah the music is a little too loud. Thanks for explaining in detail! New subscriber. :)
Thanks bro
Should remington corded clippers have zero setting
Pls help me where to put the black plastic thing into the clipper
When I zero gap and I put a guard on and use it in the close position it makes a louder noise.. is that normal? Until it wears out the inside of the guard a little?
Thanks. Btw do I hear a Canadian accent of sorts? I also feel some kind of Egyptian undertone somewhere (have an Egyptian friend). I wonder if I'm completely off with my guess 🤔😁
Lol should’ve came here before zero gapping my new clipper 😅 no wonder why I got all this little cuts all around my head lol... thanks for the info bro
Lol. I feel you bro. You gotta adjust them. Then try them. Then adjust and try them again and again until you get them just right. It can be a pain
Lol @ all this little cuts all around my head. 😂😂
I've zero gapped mine too and am getting cuts, sore patches and old skin being taken off
@@DanielGreen07 I had to readjust them a few times. Just a little bit at a time though. You might not get them to cut as close to the skin, but at least you won't skin yourself alive either.
@@joej3900 I've adjusted them as best as I can, they ll do til I can get a pair that give that smooth skin cut 👍
So is the idea that the two sets of blades are aligned straight on top of each other? I still don’t get what the blades should look like to confirm they are zero gapped? Lower blade is the one the bottom, yes? Thank you!
will this work with all clippers of wahl?
Thank u
Can this fix the biting issue?
i been watching your videos great advice! im learning to cut hair and was wondering what the zero gap is for?
Thanks! Good question: I briefly mention at the end that it's for precision, but a better reason is that if you're ever using the clippers without any blades, you'll be able to get a really short cut. So if you're using the clippers in the short setting without any guards, it'll be as close to a zero as you can get it. Does that make sense?
Tips for Clips - Haircutting can it be used as a trimmer ? For beards
Saliba R, to lighten up a beard? Yes
@@TipsforClips do you need to zero gap if using 00000
@@TipsforClips hey bro i just bought hair clipper and i always cut with guard on but i dont want that when i remove guard it cuts so bad how can i get rid of it

How do you clean your clippers? You videos are very helpful
josua su, thanks. You can use clipper spray sold at beauty supply stores
Great video I purchase some cheap wahl clippers from walmart the chrome pro very cheap . I zero gap the clippers and I get a smooth clean shave. All I need it to do. I have the most expensive trimmer and the cheap whal is better. No joke
trueGrizzlesFAN22, nice! Thanks for sharing
@@TipsforClips i only used the wahl clippers on me. i know there are better clippers but my brother introduce me to the chrome pro and i used the adjustable gap clippers to shave my facial hair. I am so please.. Your video save me TIME AND Money ... thanks again
Bhai mera trimmer mn301 hai meine uska ek baar nut khol diya tha ab vo fit nahi beth raha pls help🙏
Is zero gapping recommended for someone with SMP?
অনেক উপকার হইছে ভাই থ্যাঙ্ক ইউ
does this mean it will cut closer?
Idris Ertem, yes 👍🏼
Holy fucking shit man excusse my language i watched all ur vids ur hands down the best advice i got from watching yt videos man damn. can you also make some bald fade and taper technique videos.
Revolution97, thanks a lot for the compliment! I have both of those videos out. If you can't find them, let me know and I'll paste the links in a comment here
what clippers are these?
Noe Glv, Andis Speedmasters I, pivot motor
Do you recommend to zero gap if you will be using it to line up your beard?
@Sheriff. 0 gapping is for fading, it helps with removing leaving fades lines for better blends. For beard, I would use a trim liner, they give a crispier lines and easier to handle.
hey there, I've got a wahl color pro cordless and I was wondering if I could safely try this too? maybe not necessarily 0 but lower than 0.8. Thanks
boulala21 yes you can I have the same clipper as you. You can 0 gap them
@@NighmareRS oh sweet, do you know if I need different screws? as that's what I read somewhere else. Cheers
I cant zero gap mine, i have a Kiepe Professional ?
Does this make blending for fading more detailed??
Same question I have
Great video.
My problem is that I keep marking my skin and gives me black mark my skin when I do outline. What your advice. Thanks
Did you figure it out?
I have the same problem also
Check your blades to see if the cutter blade is higher than the guard blade.
When I'm tightening the screws, it just reverts back to the original position
Kool!
Hii sir
My name is Naveen Barik
I'm from india and I'm also barber
And I'm watching your video
Please tell me bro best professional trimmers
In low budget and please tell me you using also
Trimmer set for High low and mid fade
please reply me ❤️❤️❤️👍👍👍👍
So is it best to have this type of clipper as your fading or balding?
Scardrewpro, zero gapping helps you cut shorter, so it’s good for a balding haircut, though you’ll need something other than just clippers to entirely bald it out. It also helps with precision
It appears that most excellent clippers can cut hair to 0.8 mm but if you have a good shaver than it should be able to cut the hair from 0.8 mm to 0 mm safely.
So for super low, balding haircut to get the look you need clippers and trimmers together? You can’t just use trimmers, like T Outliners by themselves, if your hair is already short and you want it super close? Thanks
Unfortunately this does not work with a Wahl Super Taper Cordless. The blade can not be moved as soon as the screws are in position. Or am I doing it wrong?
123 654 Nope, won’t work because the two holes in the blade and the two screws holding the blade have the same diameter. When I loosen the screws the blade is still fixed. It can only be moved when the screws have been removed. Maybe they have changed it with the model I have (Wahl Super Taper Cordless).
I have now used two different screws to make it work like you have described. Thanks.
when you brush off hair face the trimmer downwards.. less chance of getting bits of hair further into your investment!
Upside down you mean
Kinda confused on which blade should stick out further, is it the big blade or the little one ?
It's the big blade bro. If the little one is sticking out farther, you will cut yourself or your client.
how to use shears or scissors to trim long hair?
deemahdee, I hope to have a video out on that soon
So...How do you unzero gap it
I did this and it pulled my hair instead of cutting it..what did I do wrong
