im from da roc and appreciate your professionalism.. very helpful in detail ...keep up the good work.. thanks

You are an awesome teacher man👍🏻. Thanks so much for making these videos. I have been barbering for almost 39 years and until now I have been doing fade haircuts without any knowledge of the how to use these guards. I have been watching your videos and practicing all your instructions and I am seeing that my fades are coming great now. Thank you so much for your kindness and talent sharing to all of us barbers . Best wishes to you and please continue such a great job you’re doing . Cheers👍🏻👏

Thank you, sir! I am a stylist who decided to dip my toe in the barber-pool and you have helped me tremendously! Very thorough and informative. GOD bless.

You made my life so much better!! Thank you for this break down! They didnt't even teach me this in barber school. SMH.

wow thank you so much! This is the best tutorial video I've seen so far! you're a great teacher so thank you for explaining everything in detail :)

I'm starting barbering college in September iv been watching videos to start to learn how to use the equipment. this is the only video I have found in 5 weeks of looking that makes any sense. I'm going to watch all your videos. seems to me your videos may be exactly what iv been looking for. 10/10 from me

Very well spoken and accurate. This helped me out a lot! Great job!

Thanks for explaining this in a way that makes sense. You are a great instructor.

I been cutting hair for 5 yrs and never knew the concept about the guards. Its one of the most informative video I seen. Appreciated brotha!!

Omg thank you for making this video! As a hairdresser I find myself liking men’s cuts more and want to be able to fade and I could never understand why I never could blend out from a 1 to 2. I knew I needed another guard and you made it click for me to understand the guards so much better.

Hi from Brazil Will! Your video is awesome. I really didn't know the reason that guards were numbered until i watched this! Thank you very much for sharing your knowledge with us. It really helped me a lot!

Great vid with very good instruction! THE BEST guard explanation on KZfaq!

You don't have to be a beginner to learn. I've been barbering for over 41 years. Only the last few years people started asking for haircuts by numbers. So I got the guards to perform to my customers likings. I only recently realized that some guards were preferred over others. I just use them as a reference point and then did the barbering. I did not pay close attention to the numbers of different brands. I did kinda figured out by eyeballing, the relationship between guard sizes and blade sizes. This tutorial takes a lot of the guess work out of it and breaks down the numbering to measurements. This is not the first time that I have been impressed by you young man. My first time seeing one your tutorials I immediately subscribed and liked!

New to the barber world. Still in school. Your video helped me alot. I am just learning how to fade and this makes so much sense. Thank you.

Damn man this videos are awesome. You explain things so well in a way I’m able to understand simply. Please keep making more

Will your videos are the best on here. I learn more in two second then in all the other people videos on here. Thank you.

Mr. Stamm handling his business like a boss....superb tutorial!!!! keep shinning my brother!!!!

I appreciate the information expressed in this video. I think anyone who is starting out like myself should make this the first thing we learn about when starting out. At least for me I will be watching this video over and over untill I truly understand the Guard system. One Love!

Thank you for all of the great info. Ive been looking for this type of guard breakdown for a while. Your teaching has become a staple in my classroom.

Hey man, i just wanted to thank you so much for this video i struggled so bad with my blends and bc of this video i learned what my guards sizes really were and how to use them correctly. Again thank you and keep doing what you’re doing. #Keeppushing

Will my man, i gotta say thanks for all your vids. i commented several months back from my other channel when i first started barber school, and no I'm 1 month away from finishing, gotta say this vid has helped me ALOT and will be purchasing the magic clips with premium guards for my next purchase. Keep it up fam God Bless

Is because of people like you that makes a difference in people lives thank you 🙏

Will this video was so helpful and in depth thank you for this. Looking forward to your next videos.

THANK YOU FOR THE EFFORT AND THE DEDICATION TO US "NOVICE" AND ALL WHO NEVER CUT A HEAD BEFORE. KNOWLEDGE IS POWER.

Great video man. I've been cutting hair for 5 years and I've been using the andis magnetic guards. I just bought the Wahl Magic clip and the wahl premium guards today and watching this video helped me understand how to use the 1 1/2 guard. Thanks!

Very informational and clear. Youre a good instructor thank you for your time!

I’m a beginner and this made me understand the guards a lot better appreciate it bro I subscribed as well 🤙🏾

Why doesn’t this have more views?! This needs to be taught in school

I’m in barber school now and when the instructor is teaching me he just tells me what to do and not why and what guards to use. This makes my life so much simpler!!!!! You need to open a school 💯

Good stuff man. Helped me out a lot.

Hi Stamm, thanks for the knowledge not many videos I've seen demonstrate so well like you do. question.. how to do bald fade with a number #6 or 8# on top. much appreciated.

Your videos are excellent! You have made it so easy to understand !!!!please make more videos.....THANK YOU!!

thank you ...very informative and helpful

2021 UPDATE: Andis has created the Purple Nano 0.5 and 1.5 guards (1/2 and 1 1/2) to complete the transition. Great video!

best explanation on youtube i never knew the 3/16 fully open is over a 2

Very good info. You made it plain. Thank you sir.

Will, it’s funny, I just realized a lot of this last month, but you laying it out like that made it real solid. Especially with your diagram. I studied them after I realized the speedos have more teeth, I hate how the wahl 1 1/2 has about 6 teeth. I thought about switching over to the speedos for that reason, but then I realized the speedos have no #1.

Great breakdown 💯💯

Wow 😳 you should be in every cosmetology school and explain this!!!! You are amazing 😉

Bro that was good now I understand the money method...Thanks

Nice!! Mr.Will..... This is a great video!!!!

Great work! Thanks.

Great vid, well done.

Thank you sir.. that was amazing that was my problem fading and how long it took for me finish a haircut!! Didn't really understand how to use the guards.

Amazing video!!!

A game changer video 🔥✨

You should do a video like this on how guards compare to blades.

great video bro.. this was something that no one shows you. I had to figure it out on my own. if you can drop a video on how to use the wahl black gards from start to finish from close, middle, and open. I'm sure that would really help people out. it's something that no one really shows how to do. well great job on everything you do God bless you bro..

Wow Will you are a beast Sir super professional

Thank you so much bro you really looked out.

i can use the combination guards: speed guards & purple guards in the Andis Bgr and not use the detachables guards?

This was veeeery helpful. Thank you! Can you also do a tutorial on metal guards?

thanks for this. which (closed) attachment is the equivalent of a no guard (bare clipper) open?

Everything you taught was very clear to me but What is the measurement between the notches on the lever ? Thanks 🙌🏽

i cant wait im excited for ur next video i really appreciate that u r teaching knowledge took 11 years and wel learning it in 14 minutes thank u but i just have a question so i know if i understand it right when i use the double magnetic i need to buy the 2 reds which is 000 and 00 is that right

Mane i needed that

Geia sou :) hey mate you are amazing!! And i think you are top for me.. Respect from greece i share your videos with my social. Thanks for all this staff and keapplaying.

Hi one question, do if I open the lever all the way on the 1/16 GUARD will it fade into the 1 GUARD CLOSED? Or will it be longer then the 1 GUARD CLOSED?

dope video FAM. learned alot

Great video! Thanks!

Great video!

thank you Will

Yeah Will --thanks for explaining the various size differences between guards. A very rudimentary question ...what number guard if any do I use to fade my beard into my shaved clean head? (new shorter scruff type beard with course curly texture)

Will, I use the Andis bgr+ and the masters on a daily basis. Sometimes when a customer has long hair on top and they say they want it an inch on top, I stutter a little bit trying to figure out which guard to use and just end up using the largest guard to be safe and then working my way down. I have noticed the purple guards for the masters are slightly off in measurement from the metal detachable blades and give a "softer" cut......mostly I take the purple magnet guard and skim it on the customers hair to see how much hair it will take off lol.....any advice u can give me?

+WillStamm Man 0 Man this a great video and I really like how you broke everything down into detail. What city are you cutting out of?

Thank u man excelente great video
