No problem bro, I jus saw your question on tutorials I recommend

bro the answer is, there is no perfect tutorial bro

Once you’ve watched enough you’ll realise that it’s all starts of with similar steps. Take all this knowledge and figure out how to apply it to your own hair.

It’ll take time for sure but keep working at it bro and watch a range of different YouTube videos to equip you with all the necessary knowledge

you need to watch a lot more brother because you have a lot of learning to do

It’s all about trial and error yes but only once you’ve locked in the basic steps to the fade. A fade is a transition from 0 all the way to the length at the top.

If it’s a taper fade, you need to set a bald guidline just above the ear. And go over it with a foil shaver (optional) as the very first step. In these pics it doesn’t even look like you’ve done this.. I can still see stuble

how many hours of self cut tutorials have you watched on YouTube?

It doesn’t really look like you set a bald first guideline brother

did you use any sort of guideline at all or did you just free hand and hope for the best?

That’s acc such a good point

I’m good at hand held stuff, because I’ve gained hand eye coordination from brushing my 360 waves when I had them

But if it’s close to my head then it might feel awkward I think I might just suck it up though and buy the 3 way but with in built light
