 what's going on you guys I'm back with another video was popping y'all how y'all doing so in this video I'm gonna be cutting down his hair with a three with the grain make sure you want to brush the hair before you actually cut the hair because so that way you get a good good little flow what his pattern is gonna be like so we're just taking it down I'm eventually gonna cut off the little the mullet back there so we're gonna do like a little like a little tail in the back we're gonna do a taper over the tail so I'm using a three just to keep it dark still and I want to keep it long so make sure you guys follow the hair pattern so you guys don't patch or anything so as you can see I'm I keep combing the hair so to see which way the hair grows and the pattern of his hair so I'm gonna be setting in the ball line with my baby's liners I'm not gonna go too low but I'm also not gonna go too high I'm kind of keeping the ball line like kind at the bottom of the ear I don't want to go too low because I am gonna be keeping that drop my phone oops sorry guys I am to be keeping that the tail so you want to make a straight line because this is really important cuz you do want to keep you want to make sure that that tail is straight so make sure that the the line is straight and yeah so now I'm gonna be sending my guideline I don't want to take off that hair on the bottom so I'm being extra careful of how I'm making my guideline so I'm making the guideline about half an inch to an inch so how about say half an inch so again be extra careful because you do not want to cut off the hair at the bottom because he's trying to keep that so I am making it about half an inch make sure it's straight you guys make sure it is straight and so on this part we're gonna be closing our lever all the clothes just take out that bottom line so again be extra careful of what you put your blade at because you don't want to cut off that hair so I close my lever and then I'm gonna go halfway and then open so I play my levers a lot the more you cut the hair the more that you get the understanding of what the levers do so you want to how I do it I just go close first and then I go halfway to take out that the line I made with the clothes and then I go open and then you want to just fluctuate in between what those levers do it might take some time to do at first but when you keep cutting the repetition you get it down and it will just come natural so we have our number one guard here on our walls so we're gonna make another guideline about half an inch to an inch as you can see I'm flicking out because I don't want to make another hard line when I'm doing my guidelines because I say this all the time you guys I sound like a broken record now but when you make hard lines it's hard to take out so what I like to do is I make my line and then I flick out at the end so that way it's easy to take out and you have no problem you know I gotta take it higher and higher so there you guys go you know I'm saying you guys you're having some free game here young you know I'm saying but also want to let you guys know if you guys are new to this channel please feel free to subscribe you know I want to know what you guys how you guys came across my page or not my page my YouTube and if you guys and learn anything off my YouTube I just want to know you guys so yeah if you guys are new again feel free to subscribe so now we're gonna be going on to the zero guard on our walls I'm gonna be starting my lever all the way open to cut because so that way I can see what that what my guard is gonna do to the hair because some hair is a lot different than the others but when you do open it lines it up and then that way can go closed in halfway so I'm playing with my lovers again like I always tell you guys to do you want to go open halfway close just play with it always use the corners of your blade because that way you have more precision of where you cut like which hair to cut you know the thing about like a pencil and like that little little area you have more control on that you know little tip you know the pencil you know I'm saying but so use this like you're you're coloring somebody's hair or you know I mean I don't know how to really explain it but something like that so we'll be using our number one and a half guard just to line up that you know a little dark spot right there it's not really taking off chunks of hair but it is doing the job and making it lighter so one and a half right here guys so for the side taper we are using our walls and we make our first guideline about half an inch wide we're doing a high taper on him so we're doing the no hooks so the guideline half an inch make sure that it is straight and also make sure you flick out of where you want to stop your guideline so we have our one and a half guard here and the reason why I'm doing a one and a half here is you see that bulk on the side I want to get rid of it so I'm using the one and a half just to clear out the bulk on the side so that way I can see what I'm cutting I'm eventually gonna blend it out for some people you might think that oh man you're going way too high it's you're not gonna look right no everything will look right I'm just clearing out some hair so that way I can see what I am doing and so it's yeah so we have our clipper of a comb right here and this is why that's what I'm talking about I'm be clipping the hair that is sticking out so you want to keep your comb at a straight angle and you want to cut the hair that is poking out so when you keep your your comb straight and you put it up to the hair whatever sticking out that's what you cut it took me a long time to understand clipper of a comb but when you keep doing it over and over repetition it really it really kicks in and you've got to keep doing it over and over and over I mean I mean look at me I'm a pro so we have our one guard here now so I am basically it's not gonna do much because I did a one and a half you know to take off that bulk so it's not gonna really do much so what I'm doing I am using the corners they can see that right corner and I'm just flicking out what it's doing is lightening up I'm eventually gonna go in my zero guard and you know blend that thing out so as you see it is it is light and all you got to do is just take that zero guard just to take that little bottom line out and there you guys go so now we have our zero guard you guys are really gonna see what the zero guard is going to do for this taper it's gonna make the whole thing pop so I have my lever all the way open and then I'm using the corners just to get that little dark spot so I want to kind of be more precise of where what I'm cutting because it is a taper and tapers are mainly just phase on the side of your head on the on the temple area but you really got to make sure that it is you know precise in that location in area of the you know the hair or head as you guys can see look at this guys I am using the corners and look how blurry that looks that zero guard really made a big difference of this cut because it's just it's beautiful so I did use a one and a half guard again just you know so I can lighten that spot up and make it more blurrier there is still a little dark spots on top so again that's why I'm using the one and a half guard so here's a guard you guys never really seen me use it's a number two guard I'm using number two guards so because it is dark again on top so I'm just gonna be blending up but I also am using the corners because I don't want to make a hard line especially how crispy and blurry this taper looks so I don't want to mess up so I am using the corners just to take out some dark spots so we're going to be transitioning to the line up on the neck and around the ear I'm using my babyless liners to line up so the best way to line up behind the ear is you kind of want to follow the natural line you don't want to go too high back because that that loop or that little ear line up is going to look funky so you kind of want to keep it as low as possible kind of use the ear as like a tracer you know you want to cut around the ear so use that ear kind of as a tracer but just don't go too high guys and also use the corners to you know like a pencil again to line it up so on to the line up here the most important part of the haircut you guys so I'm starting from the middle and I'm working my way to the left and then the right it's important to start from the middle for me is because of that way you can start that first little line that first base and then so you don't got to worry about it being uneven on each side so work your way from the middle then the left and then to the right you guys so this video is about wrapped up you guys I thank you so much for watching my youtube videos it means a lot to me guys if you guys are new to the channel again please feel free to subscribe um my
