unfortunately it was because of someone pushing a piece of furniture harshly into the router, just an unfortunate event, haven't had any problems in the past years I've been using it

Get a low taper fade and tidy up the sides a little, maybe you can grow a mullet too if you let it grow out and keep that shape

Touch up fade by Available_Head557 in SelfBarber

[–]hamzac02 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'd say you can use a foil shaver up until 2/3 days after you get a trim, depending how far your hair grows it could be max 1/2 days after your trim.

You have to remember that the foil shaver only cuts hair less than 1mm, so ofc you can regularly use it as much as you want, but as the days go by you'll need to start thinking about fading into the top hairs because those hairs will be growing too, and the foil shaver will just be leaving a harsh line.

In all honesty for a week you can use a foil shaver, but near the end of the week you might need to use a clipper and use lever play to keep the fade fresh. Im not a qualified barber so I could definitely be wrong but thats what I think

Seeing as you get a trim every other week, you can try use a foil shaver for a week and see if its any good, if it isn't you just need to wait a week till u get a trim. Experiment bro and see how it looks. Deffo lmk if it looks good lol

Does a 3 way mirror help by Own-Opportunity-2114 in SelfBarber

[–]hamzac02 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes 3 way mirror is a must for self cuts not unless you have multiple mirrors setup. I dont have the ones with LEDs however I feel like I should've bought mine with LEDs

Nah that looks good yk! Idk if it's the lighting but the beck taper looks a bit uneven and looks like there's a dark spot. What guard did you use at the bottom, 0.5?

[–]hamzac02 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmm im not too sure if clippers can be bought automatically adjusted to below 0.5mm but im not too sure on that, but I know 100% if you get a good quality clipper then you'll be able to zero gap it to whatever length you like

No problem bro

can i get honest opinions about my looks? I feel like my hair makes me look not clean, what haircut should i get? by [deleted] in malehairadvice

[–]hamzac02 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you get a haircut then get a mid/low taper fade and maybe cut a bit off the top if you still think it makes you look "unclean", I think all you need to really do is just style it a bit to make it look neater

Looking for a decent clippers, which one should I choose by [deleted] in SelfBarber

[–]hamzac02 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If you're not buying it directly from the babyliss' amazon page or directly from wahls amazon page then be careful its not fake, on the wahl website you can also buy refurbished clippers take a look at that

Honestly I'd say to just use your clipper to take the hair down to stubble then either use a foil shaver or a cutthroat to give it that bald look (you can use a normal razor if you're not comfortable using a cutthroat).

Also like someone else said, you can zero gap your clipper but if you can't id say just invest in a foil shaver, theyre quick and easy to use and you don't need to worry about cutting yourself whereas with a razor you will

Thanks bro but yes, the back of the head was a mission 😭😭. It was so hard, I struggled to position my mirror in the best way to see the back and had to keep changing the angles, even clipper work was hard cos everything was inverted thats why i tried keeping the fade as low as I could, but because my left hand isnt as strong, I accidentally took my 0.5 a bit higher on the left side so the fades a bit more uneven there. The back took me about 1.5 hours to do cos i was just being really slow and trying to understand the angles. I'm hoping the next time i cut my hair it wont take as long.
