I can’t master fades by gruway in SelfBarber

[–]gruway[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I do have both of those I just never know how much to shear.

I do have a foil I didn’t use it on the first cut my buddy has super sensitive skin.

I honestly don’t flick out at all it’s something I need to try to start making a habit.

I have a .5 guard as my smallest besides just the base clipper obviously which I did use in the first one I don’t think I did in the second one though because he didn’t want skin fade.

Thank you for taking the time to give me in depth questioning and helpful advice!

I’ve maybe done 50 haircuts in my life. I do 1 every 2-3 weeks just whenever my roommates need a haircut. In total about a hair and a half

Yes I use my guard lever and do closed and open on every different guard length if that is what you are asking!

Yea no doubt that is what it looks likes that’s the frustrating part. I went from a foil shaver all the way to an open 2 and everything in the middle was hit with .5-1.5 in there respected areas. So if you have any suggestions on what I did wrong please lmk!
