- I have taught millions of people to solve their first 3x3 Rubik's Cube using this beginner's method. For this tutorial, I collaborated with Matty Hiroto Inaba, ranked 6th in the WCA (World Cube Association) who will help you solve your first 3x3 Rubik's Cube!
📚 EXAMPLE SOLVE: • Example Solve Beginner...

• Solve the Rubik's Cube...
🚨 By reinserting or twisting pieces of the Rubik's Cube, you can put your cube in an UNSOLVABLE state.
Your cube is unsolvable if:
If at step 7:07, you have one, or three yellow edges next to the yellow center
If at step 10:19 you can only get 2 corners in the correct spot
If at step 11:16 you do everything correct, but the cube never gets solved.
If this happens, you need to (CAREFULLY) disassemble and reassemble the cube.

READ BEFORE COMMENTING!!!
⁉ Common Questions
5:10 Some people struggle figuring out which side the edge needs to go. While facing the edge, look at the top color of that edge, and then look which center of the cube has that color. This will be either the left or the right center, and is also the side the edge needs to go.
6:15 A lot of people are confused at this (how do we insert a random edge in that position?!). That's why I have this video where Matty shows the entire process more carefully: czcams.com/video/FjiIGVS0MqI/video.html

Hi
I feel like every time I touch this thing I get slight brain damage, sure is satisfying to twist and turn though.
True that !!!
i have been trying to solve this DAMN rubik's cube for days and i can't solve the second layer i will SCREAM
IF I DONT SOLVE IT I WILL GO INSANE.
I KEEP HAVING TO SOLVE AND RESOLVE AND RESOLVE AGAIN AND AGAIN
@@thesimpcardd i learned it and did it 5 times already it’s so satisfying (: don’t give up bro
For anyone failing multiple times, Do not give up brother... I just started yesterday... always failed in the last step, was almost demotivated but then i remembered my goal and kept on practicing, and i finally solved my first cube in my 6th attempt which i bought three years ago.. Very thank you Matty, i appreciate your tutorial a lot, it was the easiest one i could find.. And to whoever is still practicing, have some patience, you will become a cuber!!
I practiced for 2 hours the first day & solved white layer.
4-5 hours the second day and made 2nd layer successfully but failed to proceed further
2 hours the third day and finally I solved the whole cube. Once with the help of this tutorial following everything as it is and after that I did it on my own.
I give up bro I had to corners left at the last part then messed up I quit that shit now I messed up on the last part 9 times now
Spent 3 hours on the 2nd step. Gave up and smashed it.
As somone who had watched dozens of tutorials when I was a begginer I can confidently say that this is one of the best ive ever seen.
Keep up the good work!!
Same bro😂 I liked ur comment
Yeah definitely
Same here
bro the third step is so confusing😭😭😭😭😭

Nice tutorial but somehow I got my cube stuck the toaster, is there a part 2 to help get it out?
Trust me bro if the cube and the toaster are the same brand it should be an easy fix
dang bro i feel you
I think you toaster was made by Rubik's.
Just buy some lube, your toaster might have a bit of a dry sandy feeling
I got a toaster ad while reading this
Took me 3 days to solve my first ever rubik cube!! Whoever trying to solve the cube first time, my advice is to have patience and follow the instructions even if you have to start from the beginning, I’ve done that maybe 60-70 times.thanks CubeHead for this video!!

this litterly took my sooo long, first time ever solving it, i did it!!!!!!!!!!!! now i've got gcse history and chemistry at midnight to prepare for ☠☠
Thanks so much CubeHead!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you so much-this is exactly what I needed in order to finally get started on figuring out how to solve these things! For some reason my brain has an immeasurably more difficult time doing the lefty algorithm but I’ve definitely gotten better the more I’ve done it. I’m super excited to finally get into this and get faster!
I am teaching different people, but mostly children how to solve the 3x3 cube. And with time I developed pretty the same steps. It's meant that it's the most easy and understandable method for beginners!!! Good job 👍
THANK YOU :)
@@CubeHeadI don’t understand what you mean by “Where it needs to go” at 5:15
@@popipom18 He is telling you where the top piece needs to go, for example, the red needs to go left, with the red middle piece so he turns it right
Thanks! Because of you, I can now solve a Rubiks cube! While it takes multiple minutes, I'm sure I'll get faster! I am now happy to finally be considered a cuber.
Finally solved a Rubik’s cube thanks to you, hopefully I can start to solve them on my own one day. (Edit) just solved it on my own and remembered all the steps.
Thank you!! I had learned years ago to solve one from the booklet it came with, but when my 9 year daughter bought a cube recently, I couldn't remember past solving the white. This was a great refresher course.
This is really good! Good job dude!
Bestest video on the internet to solve a Rubik's cube ,listen it you can definitely do it 😊
Same bro this video is the best
This method is the BEST. It probably took us 2 days to first work through it but now, me and my 10 year old son can now do the cube in about 3 minutes individually. I told him that any time he sees a mixed up cube, he has to complete it so he doesnt forget the method.
Wow. After years of being slightly interested in completing a cube, I’ve finally done it. Thanks for the tute! ❤️
I always fail the last step cause the yellow is ok but everything else gets scrambled
Me too! Is there a way to fix that?
Same I've tried twice but the Rubix cube gets messed up I can't complete the last step
Maybe one of the colours have been switched which makes it impossible to solve
@@Joebbbbbbb you can have a corner twist making it impossible to solve and the way to find out is that if their is one piece on the yellow side that still need to be solve but the rest of the whole cube is solve it is a corner twist. To fix you can take the corner off the cube and put it on the right way or hold the corner and twist it until it is solve
Thanks I think that was the issue and I have now solved the Rubix cube thanks for the help
I'm a cuber and I can solve a 3x3 cube pretty fast now. Watching your tutorial reminds me of my old days, when I wasn't able to solve one. I hope your video will inspire many more people who loves cubing, as JPerm's video did.
Thank you for helping me solve my first Rubik’s cube! Your method is easy to follow and learn! Thank you!!!!
I practiced for 2 hours the first day & solved white layer.

This is an amazing tutorial. Very easy to follow along. I do well until the very last steps at 11:35 and that’s when my cube goes to back to its original unsolved state and I restart the video 😂
@ZMG_ It appears the entire cube is all messed up after solving the first corner, don't worry about it. Continue solving the individual corners regardless of what the rest of the cube looks like. Eventually as you do the right algorithms to solve the corners, it will organize itself again, until you finally get them all and it looks like his does, where you just have to shift the bottom.
I used alot of tutorials I also used yours but it didn't solve and I didn't understand but after seeing this tutorial I finally did it after all. After 3 years of hardworking I finally did it.
Thanks
Matty and CubeHead
🙏🙏
Hands down the best tutorial on youtube, couldn't have done it without you, subbed and liked
Appreciate it!
Thx Matty and Cubehead this was a very good tutorial! Although I did have to switch to cube heads older tutorial to understand the second layer, the rest I learned from this one. I can solve it with out the tutorial now and I can solve a 2x2 but for now I still use a tutorial for that.
Instructions unclear, my cube now has a baseball cap and sunglasses
Took me just 20 minutes to solve my first Rubik's cube. Nice and easy to understand tutorial
Started attempting to solve the Rubik’s cube yesterday night(April 7th) gave up after a few attempts and lots of frustration but I just couldn’t give up and with in 24 hours of starting it, this video helped me complete my first ever Cube!
This is the one tutorial I've been following for ages and it works every time. Thank you so much!
I can tell this is gonna get popular 🔥🔥🔥
cubehead please make the cfofp tutorial because your soo good at explaining
This worked for me.
It took me sometime to get the hang of it. The video is very informative and useful.
Thanks a ton.
Thank you so much!! This is the best video out there to solve a rubik's cube!!
Got my first solve with this video, thanks!!
You explain soo well and easy to understand. Thank you
This is a great tutorial; I learned the cube about 24 yrs ago, (taught by family, before you could find a million videos on everything online) & my son who is 22 recently took an interest in learning. I told him to practice the top layer to get a feel for it. About a week later, he came and said, "I can solve the cube now", I said, "uh, what? Seriously?" Then he showed me & I said, "I gotta see this video!" You solve it upside and backward to how I learned, which vexes me as I'm set in my cube ways, but it's basically the same. I'm a bit out of practice too so looking forward to sort of relearning with your method. I've also done some practicing with corners first method yrs ago so going to see if you have any tips on that. Which is the fastest method in your experience? I haven't searched your channel yet but will. Cheers & happy cubing!
Just solved my first rubix cube from this! This is one of the best tutorials I've ever watched.
Finally! After years and years of doing literally nothing, I can solve a cube. Wished I had found this tutorial before seeing all the other ones. Thank you for teaching me how to solve my first rubik's cube!
I can't solve mine
His explanation is confusing
Keep pausing every few seconds and use muscle memory by practicing
This is a great video, thank you! I was able to solve it after some practice and now can solve them quite quickly and frequently. The only thing that could have been explained better is how to handle an edge flip for the 2nd layer. Not difficult to deal with but I had to look elsewhere to solve this. Thanks again!
Yeah getting some questions about that, will have an unlisted video in the description and pinned comment for that case
You have my gratitude, this was the ONLY tutorial that made me not only solve the puzzle but also learn and memorize the techniques to do it again.
Thank you very much for your guidance ❤ Your instruction is clear! I managed to solve it faster than I thought! Yay to myself! Good luck to those still working on it!
bro tysm! i impressed my mother by solving it also
Wow
Instructions clear, I have now solved my first Rubik's Cube. Thanks a lot!
I saw this for the first time and I can fix a cube now, this was a great and easy tutorial, if you aren't familiar with the algorithms don't worry, you just need to practice them and you'll learn them
I Never thought I would EVER solve one of these things, huge thanks man!
idc if i can solve one. im still gonna watch

Thankyou bro. After 3 days of consistent trying and making notes of everything told in the video and failing for 30-40 times i finally got it.

Nice
good tutorial @cubehead
Having trouble with the end
It took me some time to learn,memories and understand what the Frick was going on but finally,I finally know how to solve a rubix cube every time,thanks a lot
This tutorial helped so much now i can solve a cube on 3 and a half minutes not exactly fast but decently fast enough! Thanks mate!!
This is a great tutorial Milan.
Love that slowed down video haha
Man! I respect you. I learned to solve this the easiest way possible .
Great tutorial, for anyone struggling on the final step. Make sure the right hand side corner piece is fixed on both the front and right side. I kept messing my cube up because i only solved it on the front side. Hope this saves somebody some time from needing to start again!
This is a great tutorial and I finally solved my first cube today!
One thing though is that I feel like the part at 6:15 could have a bit more detail as I'm currently stuck on how to insert a yellow edge into the spot without completely messing up my cube.
Edit: I finally realized I can just do the same sequence that I used for moving other colours to the side! Woop woop
"Moving other colors to the side"?? Could you explain pls. I can't get any further here...😢
@@MrDa2509 Did you find out yet? I'm also stuck
I realized it wayyy later but when teaching a beginner, loads of people just doesn't explain every pieces and the basic functions of the cube.
It is quite a crucial step yet it gets overlooked surprisingly often. A girl who sits next to me tried to do one side but instead of seeing the pieces as 3d shapes with 2 or 3 sides, she was seeing all of them as 2d flat colors that is composed of 54 different pieces. And that even made the cross step hard for her
I did it! This is the best step by step process for a rubix cube! Thanks a bunch!
this has been so helpful for my journey , thank you
after a few tries I did it finally! It's just a little tricky to remember the sune one for some reason (:
Bro… you’re explaining is ok… but the moves are to fast… I can’t follow 😢
Change the playback speed
That rewind lookin mighty fine today
sounds like a skill issue also playback speed is a thing did you know that?
@@The_Unknown19828yo you could at least have the common decency to not be a dick
Ig when solving cube, arms automatically move fast if you solved a lot. I'm also used to solving fast
this absolutely helped me, but sometimes, when my cube is too scrambled, it doesn’t work, buy after a few tries, it worked!!!! ❤❤❤
Bro TYSM I am so happy I can solve it first time I saw so many tutorials none of them were working so I watched ur vid I was so concentrated and it was easy to understand now I can solve it in under 50 seconds! U just earned a sub ❤
OMG OMG I JUST SOLVED MY FIRST CUBE OMG THANK YOU SO MUCH
AFTER MANY MISTAKES I FINALLY DID IT WITH YOUR TUTORIAL THANK YOUUUUUUU ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thanks this is my first ever Rubik’s cube solve for 3 years
youre 3 y/o??
Honestly this is the best tutorial I have came across, today is the day I bought the cube after 10+ years when I initially dreament that I would learn and solve 3x3 cube. I am still stuck at Suna and last right algorithm.
Thanks SO much! I needed to learn in a day, and I did it! Thx!
It's been so long since I solved a rubix cube this way I forgot how to do it and
I'm now questioning myself do I really know how to solve a rubix cube anymore
It's like my brain had a factory reset while watching this video and now I don't remember how to solve one
Rubix 💀💀
This is why i watched here beacuse it's too easy too learn💖😊
Clear and crisp explanation when i watched this i solved my rubix cube 5 times in a row while bragging to my friends i learned it in 30 minutes
I was so mad at a cube I bought 5 or 6 years ago because i just couldn't get past the 2nd layer, so I just left it on my table for 2 days until today where i just felt bored and thought give this cube another try and gosh I solved it!! I'm so happy and thank you for helping me to solve this childhood dream of mine! :)
Cool 📹 cubehead is the best 👌 👍
3:53 you can do F2 U' F2 U F2 thats how i learned it and its way easier to remember
Guys , i acknowledge that this has to be the best tutorial ever , do you imagne that i can really solve fluently the rubbik's cube after 2 days of watching this video , just follow the steps iguys , and do much more practice , and you will be able to solve it many times a day , thank you CubeHead !!
This is my first Rubik's cube tutorial and it was the best. Solved the cube after watching this video thrice in a day. The best tutorial video and now I have also made my record which is 4:15.

who is a Cuber but is still watching this
Do you use these techniques or not really?
I have ADHD. I am 45 years old. I still do not know how to solve one of these. I guess that people who teach these videos “try” to explain in layman’s terms how to easily put the pieces in place. What I figured out on my own by watching this video today is that not one single person has ever said that you are multi tasking or “thinking ahead” (which is horrendous to my brain)with every single moveyou are making. kinda like chess. I need a “if you have ADHD” how to video lol. Or just tell me to go start an ant farm lol.
Thank you thank you !! I learned how to solve a cube in a week because of you!!Thank you once again :DD💗
