What'S up everyone, my name is alex kuras in today's video. I want to share with you exactly how to give yourself a perfect fade self haircut, it's 20, 21. Now and last year i've helped thousands upon. Thousands of you guys learn this exact skill set. That is going to save you a lot of time and money on haircuts. My goal this year is to raise the bar even higher than last year and really perfect the fade while still teaching more and more people. This awesome skill, so a majority of my self haircuts. I always make sure to spread out each new guideline that i make by at least one inch consistently all around my head spreading. Each new guideline by one inch is a key component to self haircuts, because you'll completely avoid making the fade, look really compressed and not give the fade a smooth transition from light to dark going up your head. So for the guidelines i've been using the no guard lever closed, no guard lever open. Then the number one guard lever open, followed by the number two guard lever open and then around a number five or number six guard lever open around my part line. Now for the fading, in order to blend in the hard lines you set going up your head with each new guideline, you need to make sure you soften up the hard line first and then knock it out with a flick out motion using a slightly smaller guard And lever length, so if you're a beginner self hair cutter, i always recommend you set aside at least two to three hours to cut your hair. I started cutting my own hair when i was 14 years old. So if you are even slightly more mature than my 14 year old self, i know for a fact you'll be able to focus better and give yourself a decent first self haircut. Ultimately, when it comes to fading your hair, you really need to take as much time as you need to do. It right, use the seven dollar walmart mirror. I constantly advise you guys use in my self haircut tutorials, instead of using a handheld mirror. My mirror setup is absolutely game. Changing and you'll seriously see the difference if you try it out for yourself, if any of you are interested in learning in much more detail how to give yourself a perfect self haircut. Just like this one and save yourself, hundreds of dollars every year on haircuts, cut the length on top with scissors and thinning shears and save your time from driving and waiting to get a haircut at the barber shop check out. My self haircut course using the first link at the top of the description. The course is honestly really cheap for what you get, and i'm always here to help you guys out. If you have any questions for me, boom all right everyone. So this is the perfect fade self haircut in five minutes.

genvious: I legit saw your videos back in April when everything shut down as well as other barbering videos ... i bought my own equipment and taught myself after hours of YT lol and honestly I haven’t gone back to the barber since. Legit the best investment I’ve ever made. Time money and safer overall during this pandemic. As a healthcare worker I thank you!
Mr J: Great work man. Really helped me . This is my 2nd attempts and it looks solid. My first attempt I boched it a bit but was close. This time I nailed it .
Beatrice Szabadi: Hey Alex! Thanks to your videos I could cut my friend's hair really nice. It was the first haircut ever, I have done. I just wanted to say thank you. I'm also going to learn to cut my own hair, cause I have got inspired by you =)
Alex Smith: I have been cutting my boyfriends hair over the pandemic using your videos! Thank you so much for all of the great content. (He hasn’t gone back to the barber since ♀️)
Somewhere Down In Texas: Your first video was great have been cutting my own hair every since, still struggle with point of crown at farthest back section but making progress.. great vids
Joe Luna: You rock Alex. You the reason I can now cut my hair. Very decent. Thanks bro!
nonaln: Thanks for this step by step process! I was looking for a front hair cut video. It really helpful, althogh my hand can't follow the instruction not that much clearly
Adolfo Valdez: Been following since your first tutorial bro. One of the main reason why I got to barbering. And you got a lot better.
Queonda Carlou5: Do you zero gap your clippers? Thank you for your vids! Been cutting my hair since last year.
HazmatEsports: Awesome video, I'd love to see a tutorial on how to do a cropped fringe
j p: I've been doing this a long ass time and I still can't properly fade my own hair. I follow the steps from every vid that I see and the lines never disappear
NG49: I'm doing this exact cut. Looks good
elitecenafan: Alex, you should definitely upgrade your clippers to something like a Wahl Magic or Senior. The super taper doesnt do that good of a job when it comes to blending.
CRIPTOCOCO: Thank you Alex, today I gonna get myself hair cut. By the way, you did yours very nice..see ya !
mlsterlous: Do you know that there are clippers that dont have lever, so its always closed? Like my Braun HC5050. But the thing is, it worked really good, already after 1st time cutting my hair. I just followed another tutorial, where you start with the longest guard you want, like for example N4, and then gradually go down changing it to N3,N2,N1. Its all about right hand movements to get it look smooth :) This tutorial probably shows more professional and precise way, but the way i did it also ended up more than ok. Also my haircut is a bit different, no that short as yours.
steven: This one was short bro keep making content my dude!! We love it
The Blue Thunder Bunny: Alex, what brand of clippers could you recommend for someone who wants to try this?
Joe Luna: What trimmers do you all recommend for accurate fading? My Walhs are ok but something missing to kinda perfect my fade. Also does not help I have peppered hair on the sides.
Rebekah Carrillo: Thank you!
Mr. Vj: It's really perfect bro
C James: Bro you're awesome I think you're Greek too I'm going to give it a shot today and 34 hopefully I can do it the right way you made it look so easy but I don't know man wish me luck

Lukas Abgehoben: Ist is not difficult to cut your own Hair on Top? Is it only training, just if u do it again and again, u can it better?
Dommer: Save your self $100s but lose 1000’s of hours! I think I’ll give myself a buzz cut and save $100’s and 10000’s of hours! ♂️
Ninja Shogun: It's almost perfect
OmarTrombon: I wear glasses so its a bit hard for me to see lol eye sight is kinda bad so what i did is did a 1 all around and left the top hair alone to do a comb over lol came out ok lol

Cesar Marez: Are ur clippers zero gapped?
Ty Roark: What lights do you use?
Me And: Nice one thanks
Matthew Jarrod: Look people, his technique is good for him but very few can pull this off. Easy way using two lengths for beginner. Cut top using guard 12-16mm. Next put 9mm guard on for the sides. Have the guard perfectly level starting at the bottom and go straight up, never change the angle of the clippers, keep them parallel to the side, when you get to where the skull curves DO NOT change the angle. You see, as you go up your skull curves, by keeping the clippers the same throughout this upward cut, the top will automatically be faded due to skull curve. Do this all the way around your head. The fade will look good and perfect because you are using your skull's natural curve. The hardest part last, and this will take practice, is lining up around ears and back line. NOTE: Above guard lengths can be adjusted to how ever long you want. Tool used, Phillips Norelco 7000 multi grooming
Jason Wei: Good skill...
xnihilistex xvx: Bruhh, go see a hairdresser, it's far from a perfect fade.
