Thank you David for all of your videos, especially this tutorial. I've been a barber for 12 years and still have yet to master shear work, but this is very informative and helpful! 💈💈
I think that's an ongoing necessity in our skill-set, just need to be reminded of form(at least for those of us who've been cutting a while). For newbees, this is a great skill to learn. Well done!

David. As always you did a good job with this shear technique video tutorial. I have been practicing this technique for the last 2 or more months and I like it, but the only downside is that your thumb starts getting sore. My next challenge to myself is to do the same with my left hand. And I’d suggest you to do the same. Peace out Fella
Haha that sounds good man. For the sake of truth this technique is pretty difficult to master but as the saying says “Practice makes perfect” so we gotta keep it up. I was wondering, where’s your barber shop located?
Isid, scissor over comb was the hardest technique for me to master when I was still in training. I recommend a longer shear, around 6" to do SOC, mainly because it makes it easier to get around ears and you can work the side planes of the head a little easier. Also, if your thumb is getting too sore or tired, check your shear's tension. If that is good, not too tight, or too loose, check the sharpness of the blades. I get all of my shears sharped twice a year. I find that if the blade is dull, it will push the hair and leave you with a frustrating experience and an uneven cut. I also find that if a client's hair is too long or thick, SOC can be a little tiresome on the thumb, but, sometimes it is necessary for time's sake. I'm so glad David pointed out that you should not "quack" with the blades and that it is all in the thumb. We were taught to hold your shears as if you were cutting straight out in front of you, then take your opposing hand, palm up, to the bottom blade of the shear. Then, you just move your thumb to learn the movement. You can see the blade that should be moving. Then you can just hold your shears in your downtime and move only the thumb. Also, figure 8 motions with the shears while moving the blade so you can get used to moving around the head and ears. I hope that helps, good luck and great tutorial David!
Well I used to love 7 inch shears for everything but now I love using 5 or 5.5 inches shears. I do more precision cutting now so smaller shears are best. I don’t use thinning shears but as I enjoy pointcutting or other techniques better
How do you make sure your shears fit your hands/fingers correctly? I feel like I can't find shears that fit comfortably in my hand. The finger holes are always too big
Nice work. Although editorials like this encourages backyard non hairstylist to do it at home therefore it kills our industry. Keep our trade at work only 😘
I have to respectfully disagree with you. I think not sharing is what kills our industry and doesn’t let it move forward. Educating others is the only way we can elevate the industry and make our clients value our work and what we do.
Its kinda hard learning this tecchnique because at begin you can pull hair by accident wich causes pain to the person you cutting hair at so becareful move only one blade
If you do a quick Google search you will find this: “Hair-cutting shears are scissors that are specifically designed for cutting hair. They are also known as barber shears, hairdressing shears, or hair shears.”
David Falla Did a quick Google search. This came up!... The Difference Between Scissors& Shears. Scissors have symmetrical, equally sized finger holes and are generally under 6" in blade length, while shears have one smaller finger hole and one larger finger hole and are more than 6" in blade length. 6" in BLADE LENGTH!! As even 7" shears don't have a blade length of 6 inches, technically, we're all using scissors!! Lol 🤣🤣 But bro, at the end of the day, I'm just playing with you! I'm always bigging up your channel and am a MASSIVE fan! Your cuts are always 💯🔥! Love this barber life bro 🤜🏼🤛🏼🔥🔥
Dude this is the best technique I ever seen and thank you for the help
Very important. First shearing technique we learned in school. Excellent lesson for a vid this short.
Thank you David for all of your videos, especially this tutorial. I've been a barber for 12 years and still have yet to master shear work, but this is very informative and helpful! 💈💈
Thanks and we all need something new to learn. I have so much to learn yet.
Plz do a in depth clipper over comb tutorial using different angles as well. Love your tutorials bro !!
Back to basics, thanks this important.
It was my fault for not teaching the basics first so I’m making it up to everyone now
I think that's an ongoing necessity in our skill-set, just need to be reminded of form(at least for those of us who've been cutting a while). For newbees, this is a great skill to learn. Well done!

Funny thing you mentioned that. I’ve been trying to train my left hand to do the same lol
Haha that sounds good man. For the sake of truth this technique is pretty difficult to master but as the saying says “Practice makes perfect” so we gotta keep it up.
I was wondering, where’s your barber shop located?
That’s how it is man and I’m in New Jersey

Well I used to love 7 inch shears for everything but now I love using 5 or 5.5 inches shears. I do more precision cutting now so smaller shears are best. I don’t use thinning shears but as I enjoy pointcutting or other techniques better

How do you make sure your shears fit your hands/fingers correctly? I feel like I can't find shears that fit comfortably in my hand. The finger holes are always too big
That’s the Beauty of SharkFin shears, the come with adjustment accessories so they always fit correctly. Go to their website and check them out
They sell inserts to make the holes smaller so the shears fit better in your hand. A lot of shears come with these.

In jersey we call them shears but you can call them scissors. At the end it’s about the technique not the name of the tools
