[clayg80]

Good job, bro

[djt8521]

[calliemacnab]

Nice and clean! I thought I did a good fade until I saw yours haha

[rbcausing]

[ThaLadiesman217]

[bossunit43]

Nice bro

[smdbch1]

he got the crap shaved out of him

[EMAGINEORCREATE]

Pretty clean bro looking foward to c more

[Carloss718]

Thats what a lot of fades is missing is a nice blend and is laying real nice nice cut where u at in the Atl.

[trowe1986]

you notice the people who say i can do better don't have a video on youtube to prove they can do better.

[joespo69]

I can do that haircut in half the time ..

[1skilz]

@joespo69 When you find out that this clients hair like a Brillo Pad. It will take a little longer than you think to make a good blend, but you can't cut anyway.

[StatenIzzy1]

thats not uneven u faggets..even if it is a lil uneven when u fade ou the lines u cant really tell...so ur lines dont need to be perfect..asu can see he did his thing towards the end

[msreddbone77]

I would have to say you have skills. I'm a full service hair stylist and I'm working on learning how to do cleaner fades. Did you use a 0a to blend the line out?

[1skilz]

@msreddbone77 no I use a comb

[myNAMEhighGUY]

@1skilz yo u using a comb,,,MY MAMA B USING COMBS TO SHYT YALL NEEDA HOOK UP.

[King6ft1]

Now if i was hating i would post on here for people not to waste 10:05 of there life watching this video

[King6ft1]

@1skilz, bro its not hating its called observation, i didnt say anything was wrong with u using the comb, I clearly spoke my opinion about the comb being over rated in fading, when we have 76ers and guards that do the same thing, u sound like your trying to prove something, prove to me u can cut more than black hair, I cut it all, I own a barber shop so I have nothing to prove, by the way how long did that cut take minus all the video editing

[austinvanwinkle]

@ 1:32 fade is uneven. Left ear is high. Check out the right.



[1skilz]

@austinvanwinkle you uneven!

[thewhitehawk2009]

@1skilz OOHH!!!

[1skilz]

@austinvanwinkle No, I think you are high. Lol.

[themanchild15]

kinda looks like a chubby d williams ha, nice fade pimpin! 

[youngbuck1250]

this is an awesome cut 1skillz. very nice teqnic. i had one question.. can this fade be done on a person with straight hair? because straight hair is much more difficult to fade i feel. personally do you think this fade could be done with straight hair? other than that great cut. looking forward to more videos!

[1skilz]

@youngbuck1250 Strait hair is actually easy . It takes less strokes to fade fine hair.

[MileoMajor]

@youngbuck1250 you can fade straight hair with shape up clippers. you can just trim it into a fade. you have to actually go in and blend a line out with curly afro textured hair.

[tbreezey11]

fuck all these haters my dude that fade is crispy n that nigga from chicago dont kno whatsup in these northeast barbershops im in worcester ma n we'll embarass that dude out here. big up 1skilz

[piepiemushroom]

ha left beard on?

[UPcomingBARBER08]

see thats where alot of people get being a barber twisted. this thing isnt about money, its about the passion we have for cutting hair. yea the money is good but REAL barbers feel better about giving a fresh cut than how much money they can make in a day. If your cuta r fresh and your skills r tight then customers and money will never be a problem. good work on the cutt barber. barber love.

[1skilz]

@UPcomingBARBER08 That is noting but the truth! and real barbers know, thank you for your comment . Barber love.

[FredyJared]

@UPcomingBARBER08 ...... How good is the money???? Upcoming rookie!

[l1nd0thebarber215]

good shit pop

[Icyfighter604]

that fade looks great

[mastercrtr29]

wow great job check me out in birmingham type taqee on you tube

[1skilz]

@TheSingingboy15 now how long do u think it took , five cuts takes me about 1hr and a half. It all depends on who you are cutting, not how many heads you can get in the chair. Most barbers that speed cut lose clients every week. Dont get it twisted this is to help barbers understand the fade not to show off, My client does that for me.

[deeriles95]

Nice cut , but time is money, if your satisfied with the amount of time it took then that's all that mattered

[1skilz]

@deeriles95 Quality is money 12 -15 clients bring me about $300 or more , yes I am satisfied.

[NestorTheNica]

Nice Haircut!!

[teg9095]

hey what kind of shaver do u use on beards?

[teg9095]

dont pay attention to these fools man people even hated on Jesus and he was perfect. u on point man keep up da good wk that cut was fresh

[VANDAGOAT]

[VANDAGOAT]

COME CHECK ME OUT FAM, I'LL SHOW U THE RIGHT WAY HOW TO FADE!! (PHILLY)

[1skilz]

@VANDAGOAT U don't know the right way until u ask the client what he wants. Wrong or right ?

[blackmoney37]

[1skilz]

@blackmoney37 Yea thats what they all say until i come to a shop near you and take all of you clients. See u only get a little bit of what I do on youtbe , this is a 12year client the will not try another barber and that is whats up. I don't need your shop I am the shop.

[Mr87sam]

Deron Williams... LOL

[King6ft1]

The comb is overrated

[1skilz]

@King6ft1 What u say? I will contest any Master barber or Hair cutter in the world boy. Come get some Skilz.

[JOLEVONONDRUMS]

@1skilz go get defunkiaksprings then

[King6ft1]

@1skilz, I was saying the use of the comb while fading is overrated, not you, but if the shoe fits wear it, i got over 12 years in the profession under my belt, so it don't make me none to fade you under the table, who shop are you working in, where, I lived in the ATL for a few years only cats that can cut down there is cats that come from the east coast, new york, new jersey, philly, but me I'm from the midwest

[jammed85]

@King6ft1

combing a fade that close is overrated if you're white with straight hair, black with nappy hair combing is more important

[1skilz]

@King6ft1 You are not ready, I can tell because a real Master would have more respect ,u are really not worth another post. Have a good day with hate. Plus i am from Ny this is only a sample.

[TheMexxican]

[MiguelandPablo]

[masterfade2010]

good job don't pay any mind to the haters , work more in your technique , and remenber if you work all arround at once it's better then working side,back,side. try it and you'll see.

[joker456321]

if he had mexican hair your clipper over comb would be exellent good bro

[kozombos]

I'm just kitting !You doing just fine .

[kozombos]

Seems like you give some pain to, not just a cut,  a cut is going very poor.. anybody can doit.And big come for long hair sorry you not past my test ...

[paintballx2008x]

holly shit, hands down you are a grate barber "Like" if im right!

[TaperKingNJ]

Not bad but why are you cutting hair in a hair weave isle?

[1skilz]

not just weave but dvds, hats, hair products, cologne. it's a barbershop beauty salon & beauty supply. make money.

[sTRUEn18]

Wow, I'm new to doing fades an I have to say after all the research I've done this was by far the cleanest fade I've seen yet. Hope to be able to cut one like this some day! Thank you for the video!
