I have looked all over UA-cam for a nice concise clear video on self hair cutting and yours is definitely the best one. It really helps the way you use stop and slow motion in order to make clear the techniques that you're using throughout the haircut. Thank you very much for your time and effort that you put into your videos........ and for sharing them!
I started doing this 5 years ago when I was dissapointed from the barber. Now I have my own little shop where friends and collegues comes to cut their hair. I started to save money, but ended up making extra money from my skills
Lol got disappointed with the barber too today as in my current village where i am at present due to lockdown, doesn't have good barbers n ended up here Searching why not do it myself
I have been cutting my hair whole life myself and the thing that changed my life was auto fading clippers like the ifade. Makes the process faster & easier
I've been cutting my hair for the past six months myself and I watch this video every time I cut my hair. Thank you for the simplified and detailed video.
Started cutting my own hair during the pandemic. Takes some practice to get comfortable with it but very worth it. No appointments, no small talk, no driving to the barber, no being expected to tip. The clipper has paid for itself many times over, I can "get a haircut" any time of the day or night!
Been cutting my own hair for 11 years. I have thick hair so is not hard to cut. I got tired of not getting a good haircut every time I went to get it cut. So I took this task in my own hands. Bought a hair cutter and started cutting. After a few ooopss...trail and error sessions I perfected it. Use a hand mirror with a wall mirror for the back...and sides etc. Now takes me 15 min. Saving a lot of money...and can cut whenever I want no appointments etc. Came in handy with Covid because I already was taking care of this. At some point I might go back to a professional because sometimes being pampered is a good thing. But for now...all good. Good video.
Great tutorial. I use an old belt as a guide to cut the line at the back of my neck. I wrap the belt around my head, holding the buckle and end at my forehead. I line it up by wrapping the belt over my ears, with the bottom edge just above my earlobes. This gives me a rounded line around the back of my neck. I then take clippers without a guard and slip it off the edge of the belt all the way around my neck scraping down toward my shoulders and back. It never fails. Been shearing myself since 1984 :)
Good tutorial. Started self cutting my hair during the pandemic, as many did. It was awkward at first, but gets easier with practice and takes about an hour (I'm slow). Now I actually enjoy the freedom of being able to do it myself!
I started during the pandemic too. I thought what the heck, if I mess up I can just go over everything with the same guard. I have saved a lot of money, I have gotten pretty good at it and I don't have to wait in line. And I keep the tip!
I started cutting my own hair when COVID 19 hit, haven't stopped. the back is a little tricky. It took me 4 hours over 2 days the first time, now about 45 minutes.
Thank you so so much, my husband needed a haircut and I used this video to help me learn what to do and it worked perfectly! I was nervous about cutting someone else's hair, but your clear steps and the great tutorial made me feel confident and I actually did a great job thanks to you! Husband is happy and so am I! Thank you!
Really helpful! I can finally cut my own hair, and am finally happy with results. I've been trying to cut my own hair for ages, but this was the final cherry on top to get the back and front-top "perfect" now. The only difference I do here is use one number higher for all razor brushes (2 to 5), so I don't "shave" hair so much", and I only "shave" the back, up to back of ear, not sides, I use uneven tapering brushes that came with my razor for the sides. I'm finally happy baby! You're an angel ;-)
Thank you for this clear, easy to follow guide. I'm still not sure if I'll be able to do it, but I feel a lot more confident about it now. Your video makes the whole process easily understandable. Great job!
I've cut my hair with clippers several times during the lockdown. Your video is hands down the best. I've only worked on the sides, back, sideburns. I still haven't tried your method for the top because I previously cut my top too short. The top I'd say is the most challenging for me. If I'm not able to do it well for the top using your method, then I may just have to buy a flowbee.
Just cut my hair off this video for the 1st time and it turned out great. Just made $40/hour since that’s how much it would have cost at the barber shop. Thank you!
Its a complete self made haircut with the clipper, yet looks so professional. I could see he cut the new sections while his fingers held the sections in the same height as earlier sections. I have learnt few skills theoretically in this video. Thank you for posting the video. Cheers..
I just want to say thank you a bunch for making this video. A new skill unlocked for my husband to benefit 😊. He has anxiety getting haircuts professionally done and the price hikes added to the idea of me learning to cut his hair with much encouragement from him. I am now proudly cutting his hair for over a year and just going back to this video every time to make sure I’m not missing any steps. Husband complimented me every time that I am improving more and more. ❤
The best part of cutting yourself hair is that you can do it actually how you imagined. In hair salons rarely they could do it. I am cutting my hair for last 20 years
Hello! I'm new to your channel and I can assure you that for those of us stuck at home due to lockdown, you great tips and clear instructions on how to help ourselves, sure have helped immensely, and personally, I can't thank you enough! Keep your helpful videos coming!!!
I started cutting my own hair at 17 since my grandparents wouldn't let me get a haircut, saying I would look like a Dyke. Well, turns out I am one! I'm 22 now and going to the barber is a fuss sometimes, plus it's getting more and more expensive. Your video is a lifesaver, thank you so much.
I'm so sorry that you had to face homophobic prejudice from your grandparents. I bet your hair looks awesome and if it better reflects who you are, what kind of style you like and makes you happy that's all that matters!
I’ve been tired of barbers cutting my hair the way the kids today like their haircut I’m a 70-year-old man. I don’t like that sort of style so about four years ago I started cutting my own hair and this is the best the one and only instruction manual that you provide for cutting hair thank you, excellent video
THANK YOU for being succinct and precise. I'm obviously going to have to spent all week watching this clip and near the end of the week also take notes. I also anticipate it taking an hour or two as opposed to the twenty minutes or less in the barbers. But I anticipate a better cut than you'd get in most local barbers.
This us a good instructional video for someone wanting to cut another person’s hair! During lockdown, my wife started cutting my hair. We bought some fancy Philips clippers which cost us £75 and they were soon vfm since she did my son’s hair too. She’s quite arty and did a great job, but alas, she’s put the clippers away now. Your video would have been great to give her the confidence to start. As for your subject in the video…..I think he needs tidying up by a hairdresser.
This is an extremely helpful video. Like many others I started cutting my hair during COVID. I learned some new things here like how to fade and when to keep my hair dry or wet during the cutting process. I use the same clippers as shown in video. I also use a Self Cut 3 way mirror and a smaller set of clippers to no my neckline with something I found in Amazon that I wear around my head as a neck line guide.
Today I tried to cut my own hair for the first time, it doesn't look incredible, but it looks good enough and your video was very helpful, everything explained well and slowly, even a toddler could understand, thank you very much!
All the haircutters around where I live went from $20 to $30 in the last couple of years. By my math thats a 50% increase and they want a tip on top of that. Im so glad they did that because now I cut it myself and not only does it look great it makes me so happy to know I no longer have to depend on anyone for a haircut, not to mention Im saving a ton.
@@wphillips7217There’s a lady that I know who still charges $20 and she does a good job. At the moment I still plan on going with her but if prices decide to go up even more I’m not sure what I’ll do.
The first and second time cutting your own hair is a little tricky but after the third time it's pretty easy. Hair grows back pretty quickly and once you learn to cut your own hair that's $25.00 you save every month. The key is to start the the largest guides you are comfortable with first and as you get get more confident with time you can switch over to smaller and shorter trimmer guides. I also use a Con-Air Even Cut for the top of my head at the back. For a $50.00 total investment I've learned to easily cut my own hair and saved over $300.00 a year on haircuts. It's really pretty simple and even if you do mess up, no one actually cares since you end up growing the hair back in 2 ~ 3 weeks. It's much easier to let a spouse cut your hair but still a haircut is still very very doable by oneself. Just relax and do a little at a time then as you get better over time you can eventually give yourself a haircut in 10 minutes flat. That's for us men anyways..... Women are a whole new bag of worms when it comes to haircut. Some women really think their hair is a really big deal, whereas other women it just a matter of trimming the bangs and shortening the overall length.....
Two years later and the average haircut at a regular ol greatclips near me is $35 (‘before tip’ lol), and that’s for a pretty simple buzz cut! No way I’m paying that anymore.
I will start doing this in 2025. I went to get my haircut pretty short a few days ago and I figured I will maintain it by cutting my hair every 4-5 weeks going forward this year
This just popped up on my UA-cam feed and I had to chuckle. Been doing this for the last 25 years or so (turning 63 next month). Never new instructions were needed …….. Barber shears with a single #4 spacer attachment and that’s it for me. All I own are basic “beach bum” clothes, no tattoos, no rings etc. so I definitely won’t be winning any “looking good” contests! On the other hand I do spend lots of time making sure I remain under 13% body fat (6’ and 168#) with cardio, way better eating habits, and healthy hobbies like the one in my Avatar🤪
Just cut my own hair for the first time ever! using this video helped tremendously & it turned out sharp! No more barbers for me! I want to learn styles & cut my friend’s hair too! Thanks!
Good tutorial. I don't have long hair on top so it's easy to keep it short and neat by using the #4 across the top, then using the #3 on the sides and #2 and razor guard for the ends.
tried to cut my own hair, for the first time. This video taught me everything that i needed to knoq. friend helped me with the back a bit, but other than that it worked perfectly fine! 10/10 would recommend.
I am cutting my hair for 3 years now and I'm really surprised when I watched this video because that is the same method I am doing.😃 But yours is more cleaner look than mine because I never thought that I'm using my razors like 4 to 1 😅 Nice tutorial man.👊🏼😁
Been cutting my own hair for many years and I had never heard of the “point cutting technique” for bangs. I style my bangs pushed to the side, so the abrupt, straight line wasn’t a huge deal, but in a pool or out of the shower it always bothered me how my wet hair looked with that straight across cut. Excited to try this technique!
Two and a half years ago, I bought a Flow-Bee for $100. With that, I can cut my hair in 10 minutes and it looks better than when I used to pay $25 at the salon. So far, I've saved over $800.
I been cutting my hair for years and people are amazed on how professional it looks. I close my eyes when I cut my hair and go by feel. My eyes are close but see it in my mind and do a better job than using eyesight. Try it, it works. Don't be afraid, you can do it. believe me.
Hey !! Thank you so much !! You saved me 25- 50 dollars!! Where am at you can't walk-in for haircut you have to make in appointment!! They charge alot plus I saved money I didn't know how to blind in the top part !!😅😂😂 But I got it done following you thank you again
Love this, cut my hair using this guide for first time ever and came out amazing. Simple and easy. Took forever just cause its my first ever attempt but with practice I'm sure I'll get better
I have a question. When use the 3 guard it creates a heavy line all around my head like seen in this video. But when I switch to the 4 and go slightly above it, it just create a whole new heavy line. Im not seeing a smooth blend at all. what could I be doing wrong?
Daniel b I've been cutting my own hair for a few years now. If you want to blend in a line on your own hair while cutting it. and if you got the type of clippers with the little lever on the side of the cutting blades. when you pull on the lever the blades get longer or shorter by about 5mm or so, when the blades are at the longest length or furthest apart (blades are open) it means they cut hair at a slightly longer length which should only be used when blending in a line with a guard attached to the blades. When the blades are at their shortest or closest together (the blades are closed) it means the blades cut hair at the the shortest length which is the main regular setting for cutting your hair. Tip: When cutting your hair and you want to blend in a line using say a no 3 guard open up the clippers blades to their longest cutting length with the no 3 guard attached to the blades then work your way around the line flicking the clippers in an upwards and outward motion (like how the it was described in the video while blending the hair) when blending in the line while using this technique try not to go no more than 1 inche max into the line your trying blend in. You can also use this technique to blend in different lengths for example blending in a no 2 to no 3 or a no 3 to no 4 ect
Quick Example/Tip: say you just cut your hair at the sides and back of your head using a no 3 guard and a no 4 guard and you want to blend the no 3 into the no 4 by using the fade motion (upwards and outwards motion) along the line between the no 3 and no 4 just make sure the clipper blades are fully open to their longest cutting length and the no 3 guard is attached to clippers, then just go slowly around the line fading the no 3 into the no 4 making sure not to go no further than 1 inch into the line between the no 3 & no 4 line. That should blend and fade out any heavy lines good luck.
hi bro, thank you, i cut my hair for the first time and im really satisfied. i was always trying to make minor adjustments to my barbers cut but now i can do what i want , just need some practice and patience ❤❤
I use #2 for the back and sides, going all the way to the top (with no fading). I then use #3 for the top. That's how my hairdresser did it before I started cutting my own hair, which was quite useful during the pandemic.
I have been cutting my own hair for about twenty years now. Total savings? About A$4,000.00 (eight haircuts per year at about A$25.00 a time in today's money) This is an excellent video. I slowly worked out a method that is just about the same as the first half. My wife blends in the hairline and does some scissor work on top. My wife hasn't been to the hairdresser in thirty years. She keeps it long and natural and I trim the tips for her. Probably about another A$6000.00 saved, and she hasn't been butchered by hairdressers trying to sell her 'styles'. That's the price of a new small car.
I have looked all over UA-cam for a nice concise clear video on self hair cutting and yours is definitely the best one. It really helps the way you use stop and slow motion in order to make clear the techniques that you're using throughout the haircut.

These are the comments I need to see more of. Good on you bro.
How does it turn out?

Same I started cutting my own hair during pandemic and now I do it all the time lol.
I do the same and tip myself with a case of beer , only don't drink before or end up shaving it all off as I have done
Me too, first time was awful but subsequent it improve 😅
I started during the pandemic too. I thought what the heck, if I mess up I can just go over everything with the same guard. I have saved a lot of money, I have gotten pretty good at it and I don't have to wait in line. And I keep the tip!
You still doing it yourself?

Amazing! Well done!
I followed each and every step. Now I ain't going out for the next two weeks

Thank you
The outcome of the haircut is what i definitely want for my hair. Not too faded and not too long, thank youuu.
You're so welcome!
@@LikeToStylehow were you able to cut back hair?
High Quality video, you can tell he went above and beyond and wants to make sure the viewer understands each step exactly
I just finished cut my hair after watching your clip. Very satisfied with the result. Thank you for great tutorial.
Great job!
It came out ok on the first try????
Haircuts have literally tripled in price in 3 years where I live so I decide it was time to learn.
This same reason has also compelled me to think likewise.
I used to get away with $15 cuts including tips. Now it's $30 before tip
yeah I gave $45 with tip but I cut my own hair for first time yesterday and i like it.. I think im done with barbers forever
Im only going to barbers in asia where its cheaper and more proffesional
@@mysticx33wtf u paying 45 for hair cut where is that

If you inadvertently went too short on top does it matter? It will grow back my G

Ready for the next lockdown
I just tried. Pretty hard doing it first time
Thanks to Covid and now I can self hair cut like a pro. No more running to the barbershop.

Barber shears with a single #4 spacer attachment and that’s it for me. All I own are basic “beach bum” clothes, no tattoos, no rings etc. so I definitely won’t be winning any “looking good” contests! On the other hand I do spend lots of time making sure I remain under 13% body fat (6’ and 168#) with cardio, way better eating habits, and healthy hobbies like the one in my Avatar🤪
Just cut my own hair for the first time ever! using this video helped tremendously & it turned out sharp! No more barbers for me! I want to learn styles & cut my friend’s hair too! Thanks!
Good tutorial. I don't have long hair on top so it's easy to keep it short and neat by using the #4 across the top, then using the #3 on the sides and #2 and razor guard for the ends.
One of the best videos on that topic. It was hard to found one.
tried to cut my own hair, for the first time. This video taught me everything that i needed to knoq. friend helped me with the back a bit, but other than that it worked perfectly fine! 10/10 would recommend.
Are those 1,2,3,4 standard sizes? or do they vary from product to product. mine has millimeters on it.
This is the best self-cut video on UA-cam!
I am cutting my hair for 3 years now and I'm really surprised when I watched this video because that is the same method I am doing.😃 But yours is more cleaner look than mine because I never thought that I'm using my razors like 4 to 1 😅 Nice tutorial man.👊🏼😁
That's awesome! 🙂
I've been using this exact method for 25 years ....if anyone is looking to learn this video does a great job explaining
The tutorial we need in this weird times
This guide helped alot. The first time you cut your hair its tricky but by the 5th time, its second nature. Thank you :)
Watching from Thailand. Thank you so much for the tutorial.
Thanks for watching!
Been cutting my own hair for many years and I had never heard of the “point cutting technique” for bangs. I style my bangs pushed to the side, so the abrupt, straight line wasn’t a huge deal, but in a pool or out of the shower it always bothered me how my wet hair looked with that straight across cut. Excited to try this technique!
Thank you! Very helpful tutorial. I’m ready to cut my husband’s hair now.
Good luck!! Please check my other videos. Thank you

This actually turned out really great! Thank you for the wonderful instructions.!
Two and a half years ago, I bought a Flow-Bee for $100. With that, I can cut my hair in 10 minutes and it looks better than when I used to pay $25 at the salon. So far, I've saved over $800.
Oh man, I remember those commercials! Good times!
The savings from cutting your own hair are unmatched. This is a skill everyone should learn
Well one positive thing came out of the pandemic, i learned to cut my own hair. I don't have to go to get it cut anymore , just do it myself.
Glad to hear that
I been cutting my hair for years and people are amazed on how professional it looks. I close my eyes when I cut my hair and go by feel. My eyes are close but see it in my mind and do a better job than using eyesight. Try it, it works. Don't be afraid, you can do it. believe me.
Use The Force - Close your eyes. Feel it. The light...it has always been there. It will guide you.
This video changed my Mind on cutting my own hair
I have been cutting my own hair for more than 30 years. I remember doing this with the nonelectric clipper or even just with scissors and a comb 😁😁
Amazing Video. Just followed all the steps and the results are amazing!!!! Thank you for your help !!!
I find it easier using clippers when cutting the top. Still waiting for a good clipper over comb video from you :)
Noted!
One of the best explain to cut a hair for that short video and he's my hero! Looks like easy but it is not true...
Hey !! Thank you so much !! You saved me 25- 50 dollars!! Where am at you can't walk-in for haircut you have to make in appointment!! They charge alot plus I saved money I didn't know how to blind in the top part !!😅😂😂 But I got it done following you thank you again
The cowlick at the end was priceless... hahahahaha
Love this, cut my hair using this guide for first time ever and came out amazing. Simple and easy. Took forever just cause its my first ever attempt but with practice I'm sure I'll get better
Dude has a very straight hair, try it on somewhat curly hairs?
Ive been cutting my own hair since1996. Number 4 all over and bit of hand trimming.👍
Nice video, thanks!
That guy: nice job
Me: that only took me 3 hours
Yes, it's difficult.
Ya, the first time cutting my own hair took that long as well. It's been a year now, cutting every 2 weeks, I'm at 30 minutes.
I have a question. When use the 3 guard it creates a heavy line all around my head like seen in this video. But when I switch to the 4 and go slightly above it, it just create a whole new heavy line. Im not seeing a smooth blend at all. what could I be doing wrong?
Daniel b I've been cutting my own hair for a few years now. If you want to blend in a line on your own hair while cutting it. and if you got the type of clippers with the little lever on the side of the cutting blades. when you pull on the lever the blades get longer or shorter by about 5mm or so, when the blades are at the longest length or furthest apart (blades are open) it means they cut hair at a slightly longer length which should only be used when blending in a line with a guard attached to the blades.
When the blades are at their shortest or closest together (the blades are closed) it means the blades cut hair at the the shortest length which is the main regular setting for cutting your hair.
Tip: When cutting your hair and you want to blend in a line using say a no 3 guard open up the clippers blades to their longest cutting length with the no 3 guard attached to the blades then work your way around the line flicking the clippers in an upwards and outward motion (like how the it was described in the video while blending the hair) when blending in the line while using this technique try not to go no more than 1 inche max into the line your trying blend in. You can also use this technique to blend in different lengths for example blending in a no 2 to no 3 or a no 3 to no 4 ect
Quick Example/Tip: say you just cut your hair at the sides and back of your head using a no 3 guard and a no 4 guard and you want to blend the no 3 into the no 4 by using the fade motion (upwards and outwards motion) along the line between the no 3 and no 4 just make sure the clipper blades are fully open to their longest cutting length and the no 3 guard is attached to clippers, then just go slowly around the line fading the no 3 into the no 4 making sure not to go no further than 1 inch into the line between the no 3 & no 4 line. That should blend and fade out any heavy lines good luck.
Thank you very much for your time and effort that you put into your videos.
I tried cutting my own hair, now I’m bald. Will try again in 6 months
Guys this is amazing haha , my first I did by myself just today after watching this video. Finally 😂
I just go bald😎
Go
hi bro, thank you, i cut my hair for the first time and im really satisfied.
i was always trying to make minor adjustments to my barbers cut but now i can do what i want , just need some practice and patience ❤❤
I cut my hair with scissors and now my left ear left!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I use #2 for the back and sides, going all the way to the top (with no fading). I then use #3 for the top. That's how my hairdresser did it before I started cutting my own hair, which was quite useful during the pandemic.
1:19 what exactly is he look at with the mirror so close to his face while trimming the very back of his head? lol
Best tutorial ever for self cutting your own hair.
I love this video.
It help me so much.
Very clear instructions 👌
Thank you
I have been cutting my own hair for about twenty years now. Total savings? About A$4,000.00 (eight haircuts per year at about A$25.00 a time in today's money)
This is an excellent video. I slowly worked out a method that is just about the same as the first half. My wife blends in the hairline and does some scissor work on top.
My wife hasn't been to the hairdresser in thirty years. She keeps it long and natural and I trim the tips for her.
Probably about another A$6000.00 saved, and she hasn't been butchered by hairdressers trying to sell her 'styles'.
That's the price of a new small car.
remember boys before doing this always have a contingency plan in case you messed up like i did
i mean it is winter time over here so i can just wear a winter hat all the time.
Hair cutting so well explained. I think this is the best self hair cutting video I have ever seen. Tq v much.
Thank you
Easy as pie. At least now I know I should never touch my hair and trust my barber.
The best.
He did a really good job on his own head, Bravo
