Hi Everyone! Welcome back!!
As you may have seen in previous videos, there’s usually 1 or 2 ways to doing it that I’ve talked about, but in the barbershop world, we always manage to find new ways to do it! Here ill show you a third way and it’s a little unorthodox, but it has worked many times for me when blades are crooked. Again, do this carefully as you will not be able to reverse the process lol but if you are like me and those adjustments need to happen, YOU DO WHAT YOU GOTTA DO. 😁

best barber channel on youtube you are clear and concise when you explain and straight to the point.
That means a lot to me!! Thats how i enjoy other informative videos too!! Thanks for the feedback!! :D
Very helpful and my misaligned clippers now fixed. Took a bit of searching; perhaps 'alignment' would be good in the title. But you've just saved me a few quid, so most grateful.
Glad it helped!
Still a great video in 2024 because I got a crooked cutting blade on my lo pro fxone. This tip got me the help I needed and it cuts so smooth with the MIM blade. Thank you so much. Blessings!
Hell yes that’s dope!! Yoooo enjoy the MIM blade. It’s soooo good!
Very helpful video Sofie! Thanks so much.. I’m learning a lot.. much respect ✊🏼
Glad it was helpful! :D
Could this be why my clippers are pulling/snagging hair? No matter how much I oil them they still pull hair and leave bald patches.
D.mn you know your ish I’m about to like and share this video fo sure 💯 salute
Thank you! I appreciate that
Thank you Sofie!!! That was a big help.
Oh. I also found it a lot easier to do it with the Needle Nose Pliers .
Sofie, I did exactly what you did but I was shocked much larger the stationary clipper blade clearance holes were than the machine screws used to attach the stationary clipper blade - too much slop!!! I've looked at other clipper designs and those had a similar setup - I just don't get it. I was also shocked, and as you pointed out, that tightening the screws could mess up the alignment as well - again terrible design. Tightening the screws SHOULD NEVER be allowed to change the alignment of the mated parts.
My red fx blade is bent thanks for showing me
Anytime thanks for watching !
Why are clipperz naturally slanted out the box!!!? I never understood thiz!!!
I don’t underztand why you uze a z inztead of a s

I’m having a zeizure
Nice. Never thought to do that. I'll try it out. On one of mine.
sweet! im glad it was helpful
hi, for sum reason whenever im holding down the top blade while screwing in the the 2 screws, it looks zero gapped. but then when im finished screwing, and release my fingers from the top blade, the blades shift back, causing it not to be zero gapped
happens to me too, im stuck
Did you find a solution to this because I’m having the same issue
This video really helped me alot appreciate it 🤙💯
No problem 👍
Wow I finally found the trick to fix mines thanks a lot!
No problem 👍
Best hack ever 💯‼️
Where can I buy a tensión spring replacement for the fx clippers?
Awesome video Sofie! It be great if you could do a video on how to disassemble the clippers. Also, is it possible to reduce the noise of the clippers?
Thanks for tuning in! What do u mean by disassemble?
Do a complete tare down to show how to deep clean or change colors/parts from different clippers.
@@lreid9277 ahhh yeah thats one thing i dont do is breaking the tools apart and changing colors. lol Deep cleaning blade might be ok tho. Thank you!
@@Staygold31 thx so much for replying back. I’m 43 and taught myself how to cut at a young age but never got my license. You have inspired me to get a Cali license. I have your signature Clipper and Trimmer because I’m a fan. Thx for all you do in the industry
i have tried that close gap, i tested it on my skin and it scratch my skin
Had this problem w my seniors n I kept trying to take apart and put back together but didn’t do much so I took it as a sign to buy sum babyliss oneslol
I used this after I dropped my clippers, fucking life saver I thought I was gonna have to replace the spring completely
I did this when I first got mine but I bent the spring with a pair of pliers
Great to use too!
Awesome video and thank you for that handy tip.
No problem 👍
Not the best camera angles.. But I think I figured it out.. Thank you.. Love the videos and I continue to support you.. 👍 🙏
Forsure thanks for the feedback ! Thank you!
My blades are in line when lever closed, when lever opened they go slanted
How can I get a tension spring for the gold fx clipper
I need a spring also. You find out where to get one?
you know you look so good
Finally!!💯
yeee! thanks for watching!
My blade doesn’t run straight when I zero gap it. I’ve tried everything. My edges kick up over the top blade when I turn it on, almost in a u shape!?
What tool is it ?
@@Staygold31 rose gold fx
Zero gap lower than what ur aiming for and check blade while it’s on if it moves up too high
Yeah i have it cutting blade set half way just so I can use it. When I have it set like that the middle of the cutting blade stays in the middle but the corners are zero gapped. Hard to explain lol
Bro sameeeeee
Hi there Sofie! My lopro fx clipper blade bracket stripped. Do you know where I can find a replacement 2 hole bracket for babyliss clippers??
Can you charge your fx clippers and trimmers with the same wire ?
Clippers and trimmers of the fx series - YES you can ! And you can also use the same one for double head foil shaver if you turn it the right direction :D
Tnx Sofie.
Ur welcome! Thanks for watching !
I think I jus fell in love
My Silver Fx is making loud noise when full open i fix the plastic cutting blade brand new is very quiet in all other levels only in the las one please help me dont fine nothing in CZcams
My clippers top blade moved to the right. And it’s stick there what do I do?!!!
Recheck the blade while clipper on,slightly difference gap because the spring will streched..
I was in the middle of doin this but then I really had to poop so I took that as a sign to go poop so I idk how it turns out..
I zero gaped sum wahl walmart clippers but the cutting blade is so loose now. It falls out whenever I turned it on
Is there something I did wrong mine wont cut now
How come my slider looks different from yours? And I noticed that my last part of silver fx’s that the slider was different and the right side of the slider kept moving up and down which moved the cutting blade to over lap the static blade
Did you ever get it fixed?? I ended up changing brackets & it honestly helped a lot but still opens uneven a bit
@@alexthabarber8216 I noticed that one side of the bracket was looser than the other. So I took off the bracket and bent the loose side in a bit more and it worked
Hey Sophie, I bought the black fx trimmer with Graphite 2.0 blade. I oiled them well but they get too hot within 20-40seconds of use. is it normal?
that's not normal. That's a fresh set? there's no build up of hair inside?
do you know where i would be able to get a replacement tension spring?
sadly idk bout replacement parts. try cust service line
That's what am talking about lady I know some guys that wont do that talking about man I dont know how just try lol
Hahah i know people get hella nervous about it. I’m def going to try before i say i can’t do it
@@Staygold31 yep that's right plus all u got to do is put it back the way you took it apart lol
I’m having a problem with my protege gammas after I attempted to zero gap. When opening and closing blade doesn’t open evenly. Even when closing. Everything is tightened down evenly I switched brackets and that helped but it still doesn’t come open evenly completely
same with me is ur blade tilting and everything? and did u figure it out?
Babyliss trimmer blades move outta of place after setting...do you have a solution for this?
i have a similar issue, when I set it and go to tighten it, the right side moves up. I found kinda a kind of solution, so first tighten down the lever screw real nice, then while setting the main static blade, hold your thumb on the left edge while tightening the screws, it offsets the torque force of the screw by a lil bit. Lmk if it helped
Thank you so much
You're most welcome
good camera angle with closeups
I gotta make a better update video on this 🙏
Does anyone know the specs of the blade screws
Hey Sofie, my GOLDFX became noisier when I zero gapped them. It got louder when I have guards on them. Have you any idea whats the problem? Really appreciate your help and love your content! ♥️
Yes please watch my other video about things u didn’t know about clippers. It’ll cover the guard situation!
@@Staygold31 thanks Sofie!

I have same problem with budget clipper surker k9s, and it's brand new. Tried to zero gap it and now my blade is kinda crooked. Any tips?
not sure what clipper that is...but some brands have certain ones..that you can't even gap at all. :(
did you manage to fix it in anyway?
Hi,do you know where i can buy the tension spring for babyliss fx? or does wahl tension spring fit on the babyliss?
Pleas help
Same here, I need a tension spring.
I dropped my babyliss trimmer blue edition and it started sounding loud and not cutting hair..how do you fix this?
dropping the tools can really ruin the product. Its like dropping a camera. YIKES. Try to take the blades a apart, clean and re align it all. Spray some disinfectant and see what happens.
@@Staygold31 it doesn't work
My Rosefx pulls hair when taking out bald line, anyone knows why??
take it apart clean it and oil and put it back. see what happens after that
I found a better way then this is this video doesn’t work but thanks to this guy in the video to help me understand what’s going on with the spring
Do you need help? Are you having an aneurysm??
it would help if you didn't bounce the clippers around so much. Just a thought for the next video
noted for next time!
Pls save my life
dam u answered a big question for me rn
Glad to hear that!
Also remember, if you remove the blades, always clean you clippers!
