What an interesting video! Yes, I too was looking for a tutorial - a "how" video - BUT (I do wish I could italicize on here...) quickly realised that this "why" video was equally important, and should precede the "how". He makes some really interesting points that I just hadn't thought about and which will now influence my decision-making. Many thanks to the maker of this.

Thank you John Wick

How to make a buzzcut look cool?: Have a good face.

Every video he makes he is just casually flooding us with advanced knowledge on deep understanding of hair... the man is really good at what he does.

Step 1: Have a good 𝒉𝒂𝒊𝒓𝒍𝒊𝒏𝒆

In the time I’ve been quarantined I’ve watched pretty much every video you’ve posted and I’m thankful that I have. I’ve been barbering for five years now and have always been insecure of my cutting because “everyone has cleaner lines” than me or “their fade is more blended” or whatever I see that makes their cut different than mine. So that’s all I’ve focussed on for the past 3 years at least. I now know that I need to work on who is in my chair. The individual. Haircuts are so subjective and that’s not a bad thing. You’re the man and thanks again for helping me study during this time out of the shop 🙏🏻

You need at least one of this 3: 1) Good looking face 2) Good hairline 3) Good facial structure with jawline

This is a different perspective that we don’t usually think about of. I loved it so much! Thank you!

Andrew, One of the Original Minds in the business of Hair. Thanks mate, wonderful information. Keep going on.

A unique outlook on buzzcuts. I am glad that I watched this before I buzzed my hair. I too tend to have a few imperfections with hairline Etc. but the oddities work for me. Had I not seen this video prior I might have tried to correct them. I did a 3 1/2 all over AND I managed to do a straight line in back with a T-trimmer. Thanks

always a pleasure to see you talking about hair. you made me see that it's not about "perfection" all the time. once you understand the things, you can "mess it up". greetings from Brazil and the best wishes for you and everybody there in USA.

dude really speaking hairstyle philosophy 101 right here 😂 dopee bro

This video is not about buzz cut exactly but its golden... Thanks for this man, you give too much.

Thank you for making buzz cuts approachable and full of depth instead of being a one-size fits all approach. I never realized how texture in a buzz actually can add to it - how messy can be a good pairing with your actual clothing... While it may be obvious to a lot of people this gave me good basic understanding of the fact pairings exist for a reason.

We love listening to you! Truth in every word

One of the videos that i watched with out skipping. Good work man keep it up

The way this man articulates is phenomenal. Wish he was my Barber.

I showed this video to my barber for buzz. Barber: let's meet Brad first.

This is rad man. Makes me want to buzz my head. Great views thanks for sharing with us

I know I'm late to the party and you probably won't see this comment, but this was an awesome video and you helped me to understand what I like and hate about a buzz cut. It's actually a hair style I like a lot but when I get it I'm often not very happy. Here's the story: COVID Lockdown last year, my hair is crazy so I have my wife do her first ever haircut on my head. #8 on top, #6 into a #3 on the sides. I'm looking through some pictures recently and see it and think "who did that haircut? It's the best buzz I ever had". Then I realized it was my wife. She didn't line things up perfectly. She didn't square up the sides. She left it soft and imperfect because that's all she could do and it looked great. I'm going to the barber shop tomorrow armed with that pic and the info you shared to get the buzz again. I'd have my wife do it but it was pretty nervy for both of us and I don't want to tempt fate. If the barber can do as good a job as my wife did on her first attempt I'll be ecstatic. You gave me the vocabulary to explain what I like about it. Thanks!!

Damn. This video gives me the confidence I needed to try a buzz cut for the first time! Now I know what to look out for when I get it. Thank you so much!

starts @ 10:31

I’d say you had the Beckham eyes pretty spot on mate.

thank you so much man i recently got a buzzcut and i have a spiral that i thought looked wierd but thanks to you ive accepted it as a charasteristic not an imperfection. Thank you!

Straight facts andrew! And beard looks awesome

This man really knows hair 🤷🏻‍♂️

Very nuanced analysis, thanks!

Excellent advice, chill video and more helpful than you know :)

Excellent video. The military look part is interesting, because I am quite pro-military, but I have noticed that when I went for a military haircut (#0 fade and buzzcut), I got many weird looks from normal people, and girls especially were not fond of it (even scared). It really put in perspective the negative view lots of people have about the military & soldiers.

Great content. Putting out more videos, keep working on it and Im sure your channel will blow up

you are very insightful. These are exactly the thoughts i have before a buzzcut XD

Damn, that was such a nice video. Keep it up!

One of the best videos on buzz cut👍

And brad pitt is hunk in fight club. Not just his hair. His body also matches that buzz cut. It also adds to the manliness.

First time seeing one your videos. I'm a 44yo woman who recently buzzed my shoulder length hair. This has really helped me understand what I don't like about my current hair, how to address it, and how to own it. Really great advice and info. I don't know where you are, but I wish you were my hairdresser! Lol

freaking loved the video and the philosophy in it!

I tried this and am still ugly, thanks!

This guy is knowledgeable !! Awesome.

Great video man! Love your perspective

Really good explanation, can tell you understand style.

man, thank you so much for sharing this tips, helped me a lot in choosing a hairstyle that fits me!

In short have a good face & skull If not hope is not lost 1. Grow a beard (stubble can be fine too) 2. Blend it in 3. Find the right guard for you (I'd recommend a 1 but you can start from 3) 4. Get used to it. Most of the time, you actually do look good, but you're not used to it so you feel ugly 5. Wear a nice suit (wearing a suit with buzz cut is super sexy)

best video on the subject. finally one with depth

This video has been EXTREMELY helpful. Thank you so much for your interesting and unique approach on this topic.

Amazing content ❤ thank you

1:50 Finest tricks of an assassin to confuse the opponent well played John wick

Thank you...this makes me think...

Very interesting when put in perspective

thank you.wow learned so much

this video helped so much

I think you should just reference the owner of the picture in the description and you should be fine.

Would buzzing my hair with a #4 or #5 guard then scissor over comb cut it to a #3-ish length be a reasonable request for my barber? Or is that too short to scissor cut at that length?

Just rock a military cut, why wouldn’t that be cool…. Looks like a warrior

Thank you sir.

I like the fight club reference with brad pitt photo 😁👌very well done hahaha

I enjoy the lesson.. Brad Pitt photo was a total James Dean...

Great Video

thank you man.

Why you talking about fight club 👀

Watching this video & ive just buzzed my head guard 2 from around 3 inches long. 👍

True words

This is true. I bet if they were celebrities no one will be that obsessed

Ok next time I get a haircut I’m gonna ask for the buzz cut like thumbnail

Love your videos. I'm not good at giving constructive criticism but I feel this vid could benefit from some pictures showing what you're describing. Keep up the great work!

To know whether or not the buzz cut will suit you Just cut your sides the length you want all-over. You can then tell whether or not it will suit you. If the short sides look good, then go for it. If the 0 guard sides look good, then all above will look good as well :)

I have a buzz cut and I get my hair wet then comb it back then it turns into a slick back

All KZfaq barbers have the deadest trims 😂 no hate love this guy

Very help full video 😉

Half the video is Drew talking about Brad Pitt. Some did happen between them, we need to know what happened.

A guy really has to have a lot of things going for him to look good in a buzz cut. A low forehead and nicely shaped skull, a complete hairline, the right hair texture, nice features, specifically big eyes. For example the model at timeline 9:09.

Andrew: brad pitt is lite Brad: woooooooooooo

Man, I have been rocking a man bun for about a year, and I am so close to buzzing it of, because I am kind of annoyed by it...

My hair was pretty damaged from bleach / teasing when I had a mohawk, so I buzzed it all off a few weeks ago with a #2. Then I bleached it again, dyed it a color to placate myself, cried, got over it. At which point I shaved it down to the skin to let my natural hair grow back in. LEMME TELL YA. I'm past the voldemort phase but it's not yet long enough to have any kind of style. Here are my tips: 1. Bought a pretty silk scarf in my favorite color, I wear that a lot. 2. Statement sunglasses! Also very fun. 3. Making peace with my face 4. If anybody won't be into me because my hair looks wack right now, they don't love me for me LMAO

I love this guy please come to uk and be my barber

This video gave u a subscriber 😁

make video about low hair density + smp + buzz cut

If u are not fat and don't have a too round face, you should be ok

Not for nothin but I thought John Marstons buzzcut in Red Dead Redemption 2 looked amazing and that’s the only reason I’m thinkin bout this lol

my guy has a point

gives me Tom Ford vibes

sir, what's your hair called?

If you would worry so much about whether you should do it, probably a buzz cut is not for you. Just do it and don't bother. Thats the thing about a buzz cut anyway......

Who wanted to nail Michael’s look? Come in beside me baby

Brad Pitt is everything

Lol I really don’t see too many buzzcuts in the military 💁🏻‍♀️

I’m growing my hair from buzz cut now . It’s only 3 cm or something and it’s look like a carpet on my head and can’t do any kind of styling ..... 😭
