    I have been a narber for over 40 years, flattops are the cut i enjoy the most and i do a lot of them. I have never seen hair being brought to attention with lather. Im going to try it the next time i do one. Awesome haircut! I just subscribed to you channel. Thanxs!

    This is THE go-to video for a flat top. Thank you for taking the time to make it.

  • @Mark_Ocain
    @Mark_Ocain Před 6 lety +16

    quick and easy..I like the idea of using something light like shave lather to sit the hair up. Saves gumming up your kit.
    You're a very skillful cutter sir!

    this is exactly the kind of flat top I was looking for, and watched several lengthy videos, with the end result not being what I wanted, some came close, but not quite what I was looking for making it really annoying, until I got to this video!!!! Thank you!!!

    Thank you so much for this demonstration, i have watched a lot of how to flat top tutorials, and so far your video is the most clear and concise i have seen. All your directions are clear and easy to understand. I work in a barbershop with a big military clientele, i can do every cut but flat tops are my nemesis lol. I'm hoping this will help me. Thank you again!

    Lived in NY for whole life and I never had an issue finding barber who did a proper flat top. Moved to Northern VA for few years and every barber did great flat top because pentagon was right there. Just moved to Myrtle Beach and I’m on barber #3 all terrible flat tops. And Myrtle beach had a very large Air Force base here.

    Thanks for this video; I am not (I stress NOT) a barber or hair dresser, I’ve only clipped horses! But my husband has had trouble finding barbers to be able to do this so he bought a clipper set and asked me to give it a go. My first attempt worked out not too badly thanks to this video. X

    @joescheller6680 Před rokem

    Awsome love that cut my favorite. Do my own most of the time. I go shorter on top usually. Hair grows fast in couple weeks needs rework. Practice practice always seems like first time everytime. Would like to figure out a simple mirror set up for self cutting

    I have wore a flat top for 20+ years this is how it's done. A little long in the sides for me but that's up to the person. Unfortunately my barber retired. Now all I can find are beauticians and they have no idea of what to do.

    Thank you for the video. I need to find a barber around here that can do that. You did a great job. I'm hoping I can show my local barber this video and they'll be able to reproduce that haircut.
    One question I have is, when I get home after getting there, do I use any product to help it stand up?

  • @Lexiii3rdiii
    @Lexiii3rdiii Před 5 lety +1

    Wonderful job, very clean cut. I’ve only been doing hair for about two years and can honestly admit this is the hardest haircut to achieve. Could anybody tell me what wireless clipper he was using in the video? I’ve been looking for a good set of wireless clippers with a steal blade, plastic guards just aren’t cutting it(literally). Much love!! 💈

    • @Pepunkt

    Hello!!!
    I liked the video I do not speak much English , but enough to watch the procedure .
    I have only one question :
    I wonder which product to use the hair is suitable to make the cut ?
    I mean I use the product before using the dryer.
    Thanks in advance for the answer.

  • @fredsbarbercuts6375
    @fredsbarbercuts6375 Před 4 lety

    Nice flat top. I have been doing them for 25 y rs in New York and am planning to move south. How are the laws in Tenessee for accepting a N.Y. Barber? One tip I would add is to use a Oster flat top comb . One could use this comb as a platform to get the few missed hairs and to fine tune the shape by riding the clipper gently over the comb while it rests on the flat hair extending it out in front of the comb.

    Merit I'm thinking about getting either the Oster octane or the volt or possibly the Andis supra ZR2 the thing that's holding me back on the octane or old as I heard that it's very loud but after hearing this video it doesn't seem to be that terribly loud

    • @whiteoakbarbershop4293
