  • This video is all about how I cut my son's hair at home. In the video, I used different guards to fade and taper cut child's hair. I give my step-by-step instructions on what I do when I cut my son's hair. I am not a professional, but I did try to make this video beginner friendly. I used the Wahl Designer Clippers to fade and Andis T Outliner to line the hair. I also used the 1/16" 1.5 mm, 1/8" 3 mm, and 3/16" 4.5 mm guards.
    By learning how to cut my son's hair at home, I saved myself from so much frustration. I was tired of the long wait times at the barbershops, the expense, and time inconvenience. Knowing how to cut his hair myself definitely helped us on school nights the day before pictures or field trips. My son rarely goes to the barber now, and when he does go, I think our cuts are pretty similar... (AKA ya girl got skillz, lol). Hope this helps you and yours.

    Thank you for the video! I’m sick of paying and begging these barbers to cut my sons hair. Like it’s ridiculous how the barber shops are now days

      This is my goal because I will be asking my husband forever to call the barber to see if the barber is available. Good to know I’m not the only one experiencing this. It’s frustrating because he gets upset if i look for a barber myself. I’m looking forward to learning this technique and perfecting it. I hope you enjoy cutting your sons hair as well !

    Dad here considering making the move to cut my sons hair. One of the reasons I shied away from cutting my sons hair is because my dad used to butcher mine as a kid.
    I just need to commit the time to getting good so my son gets a similar quality at the house.

    I loved this video. I went and bought another pair of clippers today to try this. I ended up getting the andis that came with the liners but I used the different sized guards like you described. Also the trimmers that I was using before didn’t have an arm so there wasn’t much blending which didn’t really matter because he had long twist.
    Your video was extremely helpful! My 7 year old likes to keep the top of his long, but since quarantine we had grown the sides and the back out so I had a lot of hair to cut and was super intimidated 😩 But you made it so easy! It turned out really really nicely and I wanted to slide through and give you props on a mad helpful tutorial! Thank you ☺️

    My son 4. And I'm trying to save some pennies this month, which is why I'm viewing this video.
    I have a hard time trying to learn the guards. So is it safe to say, the smaller the number is on the guards, the closer the cut?
    Also, the arm lever. Idky I have a hard time learning that too 😫
