During the shooting of this video there was a pneumatic drill breaking up the road outside the shop. I thought my mic wouldn't pick it up but it actually picked it up as clear as day. Thankfully I was wearing a mask and was able to go home and dub over the entire section with another microphone as if it's really me talking at that time. If you've taken the time to read the description then you are in on that little secret..... but ssshhhh....... don't tell anyone, they'll never know the difference.

I really love and enjoy watching your videos, I am learning a lot. I learned to cut during pandemic/lockdown and now I cut my sister's and nephew's hair. I just need to buy a better clippers bec sometimes my nephew is complaining that it's not that smooth when I run over his hair, he wants make his hair wet first but told him that it's not right for the clippers.

@theoneminutebarber Ай бұрын

That is true. If you wet the hair it will clump together and won’t feed easily into the teeth of the clipper.

Ooooh, scissors!! Perfect! Speaking of which, Michael, I looked online at Jaguar scissors and there are a LOT to choose from 😱. And being that Ontario's still in lockdown, only essential stores/businesses selling essential things are open. Some are doing "curbside pickup" or delivery but I'm gonna have to wait to actually _physically_ try out some scissors, see how they feel. When you mentioned the thumb wedge on your scissors (I'll have to look at comments from your previous video), it hit me: ERGONOMICS!! So yeah, I'll have more than just price to consider, eh 🤔 Anyway, looking forward to this video. And thanks a ton for taking the time, energy etc to continue to make more videos even though you're back at The Chop. 💈✂️😊 Laters!!

@theoneminutebarber 3 жыл бұрын

I can't believe you are still in lockdown. Any word on that easing? Scissor choice is really difficult. If you buy the wrong pair you will be kicking yourself. I like the Osaka Vega scissors because of the pivot on the thumb, but I know other barbers who can't work with them. And my quartered steels, they are really just amazing scissors. I also keep tondeo tchiro scissors in the drawer. They have one micro serated blade which makes it feel like the scissor is really grabbing the hair. They are good for club cutting but I rarely use them as they are too small. For barbering you really want your main scissor to be over six inches. Somewhere between six and seven. I've had hairdressers come and work for me in the past and bring a 4.5 inch scissor. They are ok but it's a long haircut with such a small scissor.

Is scissor cut better for fine and thinning straight hair.

@theoneminutebarber 2 жыл бұрын

It's a different style of cut is what I would say.there is certainly more control with a scissor cut so you can perhaps keep it longer in thinner areas. The clipper is very uniform and leaves you with the exact length of the guard all round. Also with straight hair it really helps if your sections are as small as possible.
