 What's up guys today, I'm going to show you multiple techniques including clippering outlining and blending to achieve this Let's get started. Oh And make sure you're subscribed. All right guys So sectioning for this cuts pretty simple just separate front and back right behind the ear and then also at the bridal ridge down I'm gonna be using the new babyless snap FX clipper. They sent me this and the trimmer to test out I really love it one of the key things I like about it's a dual lithium ion battery System so basically the the batteries unplug from the bottom and you plug them into the base So as you're cutting hair if that battery dies, you just plug in another battery super simple love it It's for again for the clipper and the trimmer that I'm using in this video Now my clipper over comb technique. I'm working back to front And I'm keeping the comb at about a 45 degree angle I work up this side at the temple and then into the back I do the same thing on the opposite side and now you can see me connecting those two points in the back to really create kind Of a rounded section as I work through it in my horizontal line So just rounding that off a bit now Colin had a previous color on his hair as you can see So as I go through it You're gonna see me needing to blend it and you'll see how that blending works as we get into it's gonna Get really interesting. This is me cutting the hairline now I like to go through and really stamp in that line first and then remove the hair This is a really fun technique that I learned back probably 10 years ago But I love that technique because you get that nice crisp line and then you just remove the weight from it now I'll work around his ear a little bit little trimmer over comb work as well Just tightening things up cleaning them up as I work around the ears I like to use the comb as kind of an attachment because sometimes your hands can get in the way So you'll see right here as I push the ear down I use the comb to flatten the ear and then I work around it with that trimmer It's got a nice tea trimmer blade to it So it reaches really well around the ear and we get everything nice and cleaned up same thing here Running that kind of stamp line down the back and then you get a nice clean edge It's really really simple guys Now we're gonna work the nape on this I do a straight line in the back But then I round it off. I round off the corners This is really a personal preference how you like to have it Why don't you let me know in the comments? Do you like to round the edges on your guys? Do you like to square it off? Do you let them decide? Let me know in the comments below what you think on that So as I was saying before Colin has previously blonde hair So you could see how heavy and thick that blonde is in the crown now as I go in and layer it It will lighten it up just a little bit But you'll still see that nice bold line where we went from our fade our clipper over comb work to the longer hair now That's okay if they want more of a build up of weight in the back That's fine, but for me I like to really soften that edge and I'm gonna be using a Technique here where I'm layering it obviously, so I'm using the FSE Precision elite scissors six and a half inch. It's my choice when working with men's hair Or shorter hair. I'm gonna be doing a little bit of scissor over comb work and precision work. I use that scissor That's available on our website if you guys are looking for it use the code FSE 20 at checkout And you'll get 20% off your entire order See I switched to scissor over comb a little bit But really what I'm doing is just shortening the back and then blending those two sections The next move that I will make is really where so you can see how bold that line of blonde hair is This is what I really love is obviously you can see where you need to blend it But also it's gonna give you a great demo on the FSE Blend 20 elite, which is what I'm gonna be using now as I go into it. So this is the FSE. It's got the elite handle Japanese VG 10 steel. I'm going through it removes 20% of the hair And you'll be able to see how that line just starts to really fade out and blend into it It's a nice little gradient to it. So Imagine you've got somebody with just straight dark hair or straight blonde hair And you go through and blend it how crisp that blends gonna be. This is just a great visual I think when you see that blonde hair and how much it starts to blend together Just goes to show you how well this scissor works in blending your fades or your shorter hair As you work through it Still using the blending scissor Lifting the hair up and now I'm gonna blow it dry And really just start to see how that weight is progressing in the haircut I think this has a lot to do with the fine-tuning and finishing work that you do So I'm gonna do some blending here You'll see again how soft that blonde becomes and how it starts to melt into the brown That was one thing Colin said to me was How's the blonde gonna look as you start to cut it shorter and I said I actually think it was at a point where it's gonna look really good because He'll have that blonde hair on top and that that darkness on the bottom So I thought it was at a perfect point for this type of haircut So you can see just going through again blending that blending scissor Some blending scissors that I've used in the past. They'll pull the hair or they get caught in the hair These things melt into the hair like a hot knife and butter I love the feeling of using the elite blending and the elite texture We have both the reverse teeth. So a little detail work around the edges This is a technique that you're gonna see me do a couple times where I take the back edge of the blade I'm doing scissor over comb now, but I wanted to talk about this a little bit more right here I use the back edge of the blade so that blade that stays steady is what's up against the skin that way You don't cut your client which is the most important part. You'll see me do it right about here Yeah, so I go through and I'm just allowing that steady blade to go through it and then Then you get a nice clean line or clean detail mark on the cut. So now going through the top point cutting Traveling guide as I work through it The reason I'm going traveling is I don't want to push too much length to the front So I just keep working through it. You'll see my last comb is away from my body That's because I'm traveling towards the front of the head anywhere that you're traveling in a haircut You should be combing in that direction. So same thing on this side. All right, just keep working through actually I haven't switched to the other side yet. Just keep working through to the front And now I blend the sides So this is a great technique for when you're leaving hair a little bit longer on the top and you don't want those weight The weight build up on the sides and you want to just kind of round it off a little bit You can go through cut the top and then bring everything over to the side and cut it and it just blends it right in So now we'll do the same thing on the opposite side go through a point cut Traveling guide through it and then we'll bring everything over to the side Note when you're cutting shorter hair and I've talked about this in multiple videos But when you get to the front of the head the head starts to curve forward and the hair growth starts to kind of move forward as Well, so when you're pulling everything straight up you're still getting quite a bit of over direction So don't overplay it and over direct it too far back because then you'll just end up with way too long a hair on the front And you'll end up cutting it off anyways So here blending in the sides and then I'm going to show you guys what I do in the fringe area with a lot of young men and Teenagers that are wearing this type of style The fringe is kind of the most important part. I like to go in I'm using the blend 20 elite again On this part and I work my line with that because it gives me a soft line So I just keep working the teeth until it cuts all the way through and then I just detail it Using a regular scissor or precision elite scissor in there So now this is a fun little technique for those of you guys that like this kind of messy or hairstyle But have a purpose with it is to use the Dyson air wrap Some of you guys use this tool But I just put it in the hair and let it do its magic which is just flipping that hair up Which is what everybody wants nowadays anyways, and then I finish it off with a little bit of spray wax To finish the style and now you can see this is our end result It's crazy the difference From the before and the after look at that He's like shaggy and then all of a sudden it looks cleaned up still looks natural Still looks like it has a little bit of messy texture to it, but looks definitely a lot cleaner Let me know what you think in the comments below also go check out free salon education calm check out the precision elite scissors The blend 20 elite scissor all of those are available and shipping worldwide right now use the code FSE 20 at checkout.
