Its been 8 months since I first saw this video and I've cut my own hair ever since. The first few times were a bit tricky, but now I finally have a feel for it. I come back and watch it for a refresher each time. Has to be the most helpful video on KZfaq! Thank you!!!

Best tutorial ever! For people who want to try this but are scared of messing up. This is what worked for me : Go to your barber first, get a good haircut. After that use the tips in this video to touch up your already good hair cut every few days. It makes it A LOT easier and less scary, and after a while you'll get the hang of it and it gets much easier. I'm rocking the same haircut I walked out the barbershop with 3 months ago.

GREAT video! I’m an older guy (63) and started cutting my own hair over 30 years ago. All my friends thought I was nuts even giving it a try. I used the same method you use but at first I didn’t use the progressively smaller guards - I think I just used a 5 and then trimmed around my ears and lower back. It took me a few months to feel comfortable, and eventually stopped using the mirror when doing the back. You are so right about getting the feel for doing this. It becomes very comfortable just like you said. Cutting your own hair not only saves you money, but a lot of time as well! And you can tidy up anytime. I’ve tried to get my son to do it but he won’t even give it a try. By the dude, you got some great hair there!

This looks so easy! I’ll give it a try Results: 🤡

1 minute of silence for all the Broke barbers who keep losin clients to this tutorial. 🤫🤔

2024 and I still come back to this once or twice a year for a refresher course. And I still cut my own hair as a result. I'll likely never pay for a cut again, and hopefully never have to endure the frustration of a bad cut ever again as well. I've had too many of those throughout my life!

Been cutting my hair by myself for the past 3 years because of this video. Really appreciate it!

As I was locked in my bathroom for hours naked cutting my hair. I came out....a new man. A fresh clean cut man. Bald they said. Clean cut I corrected. 🦲....don't mess up or else bald is the new look haha good luck dudes

Tried it. Looks like lockdown increase for me for more three months.

This video was such a big help. I’m 41 and did my first self haircut after watching this 1000 times. Turned out better than expected for the first time. I hate going to get my haircut, so this really is a life changer for me. Thanks

Cut my hair for the second time with your tutorial and the wife still hasn’t noticed. Fantastic!

You just saved me enough money to send my kids to college one day

Love this guy!! Literally because of this guy started cutting my own hair and all my family were shocked because how good the fade looked, last weekend I gave all my male family members haircuts by following these steps and it came out great!! Thanks brother!! Keep up the great work!!

Best instructional men's haircut video i have seen so far.

Cut my own hair earlier today and the family hasn’t even noticed. Thanks for the easy step by step instruction!

Tried to cut my own hair yesterday and the result was a disaster. Followed this tutorial today and now it looks amazing! Plus, it feels so manly to be able to cut my own hair. Looking fresh now. And feeling great. Thank you so much!

So, I've done this twice because of lockdown and it really worked quite well. I honestly don't know why I've been paying so much money the past 30 years when this works out so well. I've paid money for worse haircuts!

The best self-haircut video I've seen so far! I keep coming back just to help reinforce my memory on how to do this cut as I have similar hair as you! Great job and it's true that it gets a lot easier the more you do it with constant repetition.

After living in Florida for almost 5 years, I can't find one good person to cut my hair. So thank you for this video.

To all the people trying this, I'd like to welcome you all to my tribe, we are known as the bowl heads 😂😂

This is the best haircut tutorial I've seen. I appreciate you explaining the open and closed guards. You keep it simple. Part your hair. Use a 4 guard to shave up to your part and use a lower guard for each inch you go down to your ears. Thanks dude.

I have been cutting my own hair for a couple of years and I can almost do the back part without a second mirror! it's kind of fun, plus it's something that will always be useful to you for the rest of your life, you can do your hair however you want and whenever, saving a trip to the barber and a little bit of money as well.

I’m so excited to go outside and see who will notice my very professional self haircut after watching your video several times. You give the impression that this is possible and it’s just simple steps with satisfying results. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!

It looked so easy and now here I am, looking like I got struck by lighting the day before a funeral.

My back part looked like my barber sneezed when he's trying trim it

I keep coming back to this video and it already saved me a 100 bucks (4 haircuts) lol - well explained and easy to do!

Is there anyone else here because they're tired of paying for $30.00 haircuts and not leaving happy?

Is this still working in 2021 or has this been patched? 🤔

And here is another episode of "Where corona brought me to"

I’ve cut my hair for the first time yesterday, using a lot of your advice, and I’m so satisfied! Thank you!!

Dude, best tutorial out there. Straight to the point, and well filmed. Just cut my own hair for the first time and thanks to you it came out great!

Unfortunately my quarantine just got extended after attempting to do this for the first time.

This is the best beginners' hair cutting tutorial on YT, and I've been through hundreds. He starts with a #4 straight up to blend the top, which anyone can do, and then slowly transitions down to a #1. My barber does the same. It is hard to mess up #2-4 since no skin is visible, just be careful with the smaller guards. Most other tutorials here have you starting from a bald line and working up, or playing with the taper lever 4-5 times during the fade (half way open, 3/4 open, etc.), or something else ridiculous.

Thank you, man! This was a quick and easy, straight to the point tutorial. I tried this method twice in the past couple months and it worked out really well!

I've been cutting my own hair for years, but honestly it didn't look great. I had looked up videos to help before but decided to look again and glad I came across this one. Simply explained, adjustable to varying styles, and enough detail to feel confident trying these tips myself. You can't overestimate a useful video like this. Thanks for sharing!

Cutting hair is such an art and a stress reliever lol i realised this as i cut my hair first time during this quarantine

I staretd to cut my own hair in my 20s as no Barber in my town had a clue, I'm now a qualified Barber and can cut my hair to perfection with a low fade better than most barbers can! So give it a go this is a great video and shows how to use all the combs down to zero and it's not too hard to master. I sometimes go to a barber just to try them out but everytime I come home I have to finish it off, I think they tend to rush!

PERFECTION!! I thought I was gonna learn something new but this is exactly what I do!! Very happy to have watched this. You do a great job!!

This is a great tutorial. Very clear and easy to follow. It is much appreciated how careful you make the step by step transition for those (like me) who don’t know. I’m going to try it, I expect don’t screw this up. Thanks!

This is like the advertisments at Mcdonalds. You think your hair is going to look like this but in reality your hair looks like a 1450 AD English monk peasant hair cut.

Have given myself over 20 some haircuts due to this video in the last year. Always lifts my spirits to perk up my looks. My friends are all aghast that I can actually give myself such a good cut. Can't imagine the amount of money I've saved. Thank you for getting me to do what I thought would have been impossible. Bravo!

Tip: If you don't have multiple mirrors, stream the video from your mobile phone to the back of your head, for example on a tablet or TV

Dude great advice. I have been cutting my own hair for a year, but never watched a tutorial until now. There are a lot of good info here 👍🏼

I'm a hairdresser and I think this is amazing!

This is awesome! I thought this was too hard for me to ever do on my own, but this video made it easy. Now I can do most of it even without a mirror. Once you can do it yourself, your standards regarding your own hairstyle/grooming rise. I used to think it was normal to have the back shaped only when I get a haircut every 2 months. But now, I do it myself quite often, with the 'new' look available all the time. The standards have risen.

Thank you for making this video. I've watched so many of these, but this one was the most helpful. I managed to cut my own hair, and I'm really happy with the results. Cheers!

Thank you so much for this! Easy to follow, short and simple! Actually turned out surprisingly good for my first own cut, not perfect but still good! I’ll probably get better at fading the more I do it

Who’s here now the UK is in a second full lockdown?

This is one of the best hair cut tutorial I have ever seen. Very well explained.

Idk if you mentioned it at the end, but Wetting your hair first is a HUGE time saver as well. It also prevents a lot of snagging. Great stuff man. I remember watching a similar video when all the Covid stuff started happening. I didn't have money to pay someone and had a pair of clippers/trimmers just sitting in box unopened. Now I save regardless. Way too easy to make a nice cut.

I’ve been cutting my hair for 5 years and this video finally made it easy.

This was a great tutorial. Everyone was amazed at how great my hair looked. This is the second time I’ve watched your video and was very easy to follow and do! Thank you!!!

I should have done this while schools were closed. They're opening tomorrow and my hair looks really bad and I'm scared i'll mess up.

Worth a shot. If I fuck it up I’ll just buzz it and try again.

I’ve watched this tutorial the passed 3 nights rn I’m fresh out the shower after successfully completing this! It came out pretty clean was my first time ever hitting my hair by myself, I wasn’t thinking and accidentally dug into the 4 with a smaller guard and as I began to panic I just figure out how to blend out a line I had created. Over all this tutorial saved me 40 bucks I was about to spend 2morrow. Thank you big dawg.

You did better than all of barbershop i've ever gone.

This is really good, I followed his method during the first lockdown and after a few haircuts, I was confident enough to start skin fading from higher up. It takes a while but now its so much easier and I can get my own haircut done in 30-45 mins every 4 weeks

This looks like a great tutorial! I can’t wait to try it on my son until I master it🤣

One of the best home styling videos I’ve seen. Great job!

Thank you for sharing! I’ve cut hair for the men in my house a couple times since lockdown. It came out ok but could be better. They’ve asked me again so the pressure is on. I found your video and it answers so many questions I’ve had, especially the whole open/closed thing. I’m feeling confident for my next round. So glad I found your instructions. You Rock man.

Anyone else here because they’ve already botched their own hair and their hoping a video will somehow glue it back on

Thank you so much been doing my own hair for a month now but no one has explained or demonstrated it like you and you gave the exact style I like!

I've been cutting my own hair for about 8 years due to agoraphobia. I have to say you're very talented. You make it look EASY! Great job.

I just cut my 91 year old mother's hair for the first time. Thanks to you....I did a great job! Thank You!

I've been cutting my husbands hair for 26 years and he's always been happy with an all over number one or zero! He's wanted a fade for a wee while and I didn't have the confidence to do it until I watched your video. I did it yesterday and it looks great! Thank you so much for your help and education, much appreciated

I’ve cut my hair fo 25+ yrs and I must say, you did a fine job. Thx for posting

Really appreciated the "hope you're safe & well." I always feel like a mad man cutting my own hair. Solid video

Cut my own hair last night damn I'm good I did a good job. It is therapeutic and cost saving. For those who have young children you save lot's of money with great hair cuts.

I've been cutting my own hair since lockdown, and now it's quite long on top I was nervous to take some clippers to it but got GREAT results with this tutorial. Thank you bro. I will say with Wahl that dropping from a closed 2 to a closed 1 guard is quite a drop in length, so get yourself a 1 and a half guard to fade the lines out if you're using Wahl clippers 👍

Just did mine and actually looks pretty good for a first try! Great video!

This video has saved me hundreds of dollars from the barber during COVID. Ever since I learned this, I haven’t gone to the barber shop for more than 2 years!! Thanks !!

Your tutorials have helped me keep my sanity during this pandemic and I have successfully done my 3rd haircut thanks to you.

Is it a good or bad sign if I like my self-made haircut better than the stuff the barbers always give me? :/ Thanks for the tutorial!

Best tutorial on yt, first try 20 minutes and done, perfect ! Thank you.

You made my life so much happier, allowing me to cut my own hair. You are a blessing. Thank you for your help and support. God bless you.

Back is the hardest and I've found that watching through your phone /tablet using a HD nanny camera made it so much easier.

Thanks so much for this great video. Love the lack of fancy intros, fanfare and preambles. Informative and to the point. Just followed your steps and gave myself a pretty decent haircut. I'm very impressed at how well it went. Thank you!

Wonderful tutorial! Cutting one's own hair takes a lot of talent. This man certainly seems to have than amount of talent. I have never seen a man cut his own hair so well. He did a beautiful job and looked as though he had a lot of fun with what he was doing. Beautiful man and talented cut!

Thanks for taking the time to show what you do. I will be using your technique and will follow-up with my own feedback. Thank You!

Thank you for showing us how to cut our own hair in these times of sheltering at home--that was a homerun!

Girlfriend cut my hair following this video - cut turned out great! Thanks for the well explained and easy to follow tutorial! 👍🏻

Excellent tutorial, really well explained. You made sure to warn us about tricky steps, that's appreciated. 5th time doing my own haircut and it gets easier everytime. Thanks a lot for this video!

Great tutorial! Mine came out great for my first time. The key is patience, don't rush it and you guys will do great too

This is exactly how I cut my hair! Same technique and it came out great! Great job man! You're helping a lot of people! 👍👍

i love your tutorial so much and it is very simple and efficient. you teach me to fish and feed me for my life. Thank you.

I've already saved myself 90 bucks by not having to go to the barber 3 times! Thanks for this tutorial!

Man, I can't believe how good that whole haircut fade was, you can't see anything wrong with it. Very, very smooth work, and it looked like you weren't even taking your time!

I used this video and trimmed my friends hair. He said its the greatest haircut he's ever had. Im not bragging but I must say that I agree. It is astonishing. The best tip he gives is to take your time ! It took me about 40 minutes to cut it. Get the tools on the link , They are very high quality. Thanks !!

*Tip 1:* Have godlike hair coverage on scalp.

I cut my own hair using this technique for the first time. I am very impressed with the results. It took me 1.5hr. Big thumbs up to the video.

The idea of tailoring near the sideburns using 1 mm less was a brilliant one. Very helpful, thank you. Also using your hand and feel how much shorter you want em to be on top was eye-opening.

Absolutely awesome tutorial, ended up way better than I expected. I was a bit cautious with the length, so I started with a six and ended up at a two, which still gave me a nice haircut. Definitely will be trying again in a month!

I've been cutting my own hair for 10 years but never blended my hair because I didn't know how to do it lol. But this is such an amazing haircut tutorial. Thank you so much! I will try this

Personally, this is the best video iv seen to cut your own hair. I found it very helpful. Great job man. Love from the UK

good instructions. his emphasis on taking time is very important, especially when doing the final touches at the end. He emphasized that the direction in the mirror is opposite but keep that in mind when you are aligning the clipper head to match the hairline. on my first trim, i aligned and trimmed at the same time. problem was that as i rotated, it went in the opposite direction so i had to do it over.

This is the simplest one I have ever seen on KZfaq so far. appreciate

Literally the best self-haircut video out there.

Thanks man, you gave me the confidence to cut my own hair and it actually came out pretty good. You rock.
