WHAT UP, NOTIFICATION SQUAD! Hope this help you guys understanding blades. Stay tuned for the heat coming soon, and full length tutorials a jewels.
MMA BARBER LIFE so the envy li you have now have small bolts so you can use the double guard?
I can’t use the double magnetic guards because of those bolts unless I hack the guards.
MMA BARBER LIFE so what clipper is the other one? Ok so do you even use doubles on the black clippers?
Idk which other clipper you’re referring to. It’s been a minute since I made this video. I don’t fade with guards. I cut with blades.
MMA BARBER LIFE ok my fault I looked it up and it's the andis nation edition and the question is do they fit the double guards?
The 00000 detachable blade is equivalent to your trimmers, the 000 detachable blade is equivalent to your adjustables closed so it's a 0, the 0A detachable blade is equivalent to your adjustables halfway open so it's a 1/4, the 1 detachable blade is equivalent to your adjustables all the way open so it's a 1/2 so it's basically the same thing as your 0 guard closed, the 1 1/4 blade is equivalent to your 0 guard halfway open so it's 3/4, the 1A detachable blade is equivalent to your 1 guard closed, the 1 1/2 detachable blade is equivalent to your 1 guard halfway open so it's a 1 1/4, 1 3/4 detachable blade is equivalent to your 1 1/2 guard closed or the 1 guard open, the 2 detachable blade is equivalent to your 2 guard closed, the 2 3/4 detachable blade is equivalent to your 2 guard open so it's a 2 1/2, the 3 1/2 detachable blade is equivalent to your 3 guard closed, and the 3 3/4 detachable blade is equivalent to your 4 guard closed!
thank you!!!!
ill definately come back to this comment 🤍🙌🏻
Appreciate you
Thank you for this. I have been wanting to move to the detachable gang but just needed a break down. Been using adjustable and guards for 12 years.
Thank You Brotha 🙏
Agree, I find that detachable blades gives me a more precise cut with less passes than guards. Great video with clear and well done explanations👍
Perfect! I’ve been having trouble switching from adjustable to blades because I didn’t know the equivalent blade to the guards. This will definitely help me speed up my cuts
I love your attention to detail. Ive been a Hair stylist I use a Oster 76. and never knew I could zero Gap my detachable blades. Thanks for the knowledge.
I watched you all the way form Jamaica
Just got my Supra ZR last night. It was like Christmas, I have been eyeing it for months. I went on Andis website to register the product and while browsing Andis new catalogue there was an amazing ad for the Supra ZR 2. I called andis and they told me that it is exactly the same clipper except it has a removable battery that lasts 3 hours instead of 2 hours and the same 2 hour charge time, no release date yet. So looks like I will be using detachables a lot more. Great channel been watching for a while.
That's dope. I'm glad you like them. I have 2 pair. I hope that you all the blades you need. Fading with blades are fun and challenging for some.
I have 00000 through 3 3/4 ceramic edge blades, looking forward to fading detachable with no cord., you are right it is fun and challenging Just like MMA (Ha!). I watched all your Supra ZR videos but this was the one that made me finally click "ad to cart" Thanks man. Keep the vids comin.
I sell supplies and now I’m learning how to cut. This was good information even for me. Learning to cut and knowledge of products such as the blade system is invaluable 👍🏿👊🏿
I’ve switched to detachables way faster cuts the time in like 15 mins
Tessai'sWorld good shit homie
Great explanation . Totally agree . I’m using Oster titan , love it
Hey man. Would you make a video on the Oster Skiptooth & Texture blades? I can’t find any good videos on them. Thanks.
Thank you so much for your in depth comparison.
Thank you for this explanation. I have the oster 76s and I was about to buy all the detachable blades asap but I have the purple guards and I didn’t know I could use them on them. Now I don’t have to rush and buy the blades. I can use my 76s more now.
Here’s one thing. Only the single magnetic purple guards fit securely on the blades. The doubles are not secure enough to fade or cut down hair because the magnets rest on the screws. Hope you have the singles.
Derek Colston efficient. Nice.
Glad to see you made the move towards what some barbers call "The Dark Side" (detachable clipper & blades) After doing my research and speaking with long-time barbers who exclusively use a detachable here is my video produced last year which outline both blades you may normally see and purchase as well as a few specialty blades that help further enhance you hair cut services czcams.com/video/BOiJY7bSr6A/video.html
Hey bro great video!!!! Very informative and I will watch this video at least 10 20 times before I have it down.
Just dive right in and use them all. They’re easier to understand that way.
Ok will do. I am purchasing oster octane heard lots of great things about them
What would be the best detachable blades to get
00000, 000, OA, 1, 1A, 1 1/2, 2, 3 1/2
As a student barber this helped a lot. I love fading with my master but get stuck and doing it with detachables is a cake walk. But Seeing this Ima keep working my masters with guards and get better thanks a lot!
Glad I can help. Keep the drive and continue cutting.
Very clear, concise and succinct. Thankyou
#barberlove this video is spot on. Finally someone who knows what they are talking about..
Watching my boss with his oster classic 76 detachable blades- first it cuts like a hot knife in butter, secondly with all guards you tend to always get lines, I never noticed until I saw him cut with the detachable blades there are MI guards teeth lines o.o no going over it over and over
Thorough explanation, thank you. Subscribed
Just what i needed...great explanation! Thank you for sharing...much blessings
Awesome video!!! Can’t wait until you do fading tutorials with detachable blades!!
I have a few up now. Check out my haircut tutorial playlist.
Great content bro!
Helps tremendously! Thank you
Nice vid bro always learning from you bro keep it up! Your vids are real easy to follow & understanding 💯💈
Thank you for the knowledge my brother
Best explanation on yt. ☝🏾😌👉🏾 👨🏾🎓
Breaking it down! I love it!
thanks for sharing the details . much appreciated.
Awesome and informative video. Thanks
You’re welcome! That’s what I do it for. Make sure you subscribe for more great barbering vids.
Great Great vid. I think that your meaning to say "aught" not "out". Thanks i really enjoy your vids
Great info, thanks!
Exactly what I was looking for, well composed vid my man.
If I want to get all the detachable blades all the way upto the 4.5mm guard (adjusted to OPEN). Which number blade should I stop at?
00000, 000, OA, 1, 1A, 1 1/2, 2
@@TRAVELBARBERLIFE One last Q, is the 00000 necessary for skin fades?
Yes, unless you use your trimmers. You know how I feel about that. Usually you will get a 000 blade with a detachable clipper
Whatup, please send me link to vid of skin fade with only detachables. Not in description.
Thx bro... I just brought the 76 and I have no clue about the blades, but I don’t want to spend too much money at beginning of my career
I feel you, bro! Measure twice, cut once. It can get expensive.
I’m same boat but willing to invest in these blades - Supercuts salon is teaching with detachable blades- but what do you mean - measure twice cut once ?
Know what you’re doing and buying before purchasing. Measure twice, cut once.
Bro. Thank you so much for diz. I'm subscribing
Great video! Sorry for the stupid question but here goes....if I use a 1/2" removable blade with a 1/2 inch guard, will I be cutting at a total length of 1 inch?
What do you mean a 1/2 removable? Also, are you referring to the 1/2 guard?
@@TRAVELBARBERLIFE If I attach a 1/2 inch guard while using a 1/2 inch detachable blade, will that create a total cutting length of 1 inch?
Without going through the nonsense of actually trying to figure this out. I will tell you that it won’t work because you cannot put most guards on detachable blades above 000.
@@TRAVELBARBERLIFE Ok, that answers my question. Thanks!
Great video thanks
What blades do you recommend to have for a set? Hairstylist here! 🥰
I will assume that you will be doing skin fades. I recommend 00000, 000, 0A, 1, 1A, 1 1/2, 2, 3 1/2. Keep it simple with those blades there. You can add additional blades if you deem it necessary. Hope this helps
It’s all about preference.
Thanks for this video, just started using the detachable for bulk, but thinking about expanding. You think you could talk more about the T blades and the skip-tooth blades? I have no idea what those blades are for.
Shaungudgud message me on Instagram. Too much to comment
long time oster 76 & model 10 user here... great info, well presented & explained... & if i may ask outta curiosity, what makes u like the andis supra over, say, the oster octanes? i have the octanes, but was considering givin the supra a try? thanx, god bless, & enjoyed ur video
I like that they aren’t as loud as the octanes, the ergonomics, and the adjustable speed.
@@TRAVELBARBERLIFE ...cool, thanx for gettin back to me... i love my new "cordless" stuff... nice change after dealing with tangled cords for 30 years... i got the andis slimlines, the wahl detailers, & the andis traditional lookin grey t blades, as well as the aforementioned octanes... but im wanting to try the andis supras, mainly because, as much as i like the octanes, my larger blades (3.5) seem to "push off" & become disengaged, like the snap tabs not holding the heavier blades tight enough... but with anything smaller, like a 1.5 or down, theyre great, & i love em for flattops & fades... i may haveta try those andis ones... new subscriber btw... thanx, god bless, & merry christmas to ya bro
Thanks brother man 👍🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾.
Thank you Sir your spot
Good video man
We used detachable blades when I was in juvie boot camp, and we had to keep our hair high and tight.
The detachable blades get way closer then the gaurds. But I feel like changing the detachable blades takes too much time.
When you can just push on a lever
That's just my experience personally, I'm not a barber.
Hey, gotta respect your opinion based on your opinion.
Guess I gotta get both to really figure it out
I re-watched your video and detachable seem to be the way to go..
Can you make a list i wanna use the detachables to bald out and also whats the measurement of a 2 and a 3 guard
Looking forward to the videos bro also for the guards you mentioned in the side note which ones work with the Supra zr
The single magnetic guards work with the blades. The doubles don’t fit securely because the magnets rest on the screws. Not sure how the Wahl guards might work with them, nor the speedo guards. Hope this helps.
MMA BARBER LIFE preciate that bro I hate the single guard tho lol that’s why I can’t rock with the envy
I have heard this hack before, but i've never tried it for myself. I was told that you can go to your local hardware store, and purchase replacement screws that are flush with the envy blade. I need to try it, and i'll more than likely will do a video if it works. I also seen another hack to the double magnetic guards, but it's time consuming, and you will need certain tools. I have the singles, and don't really use them because I fade with the blades. They aren't that bad if you know how to use them. Just my opinion.
MMA BARBER LIFE yeah I seen you comment on mreddiebarber video he did on that but I was like for all that I’ll just rock with the magic clips and call it a day
You should’ve brought out a adjustable blade that opens from 00000-000 to explain how that equivalent to a 1/2 guard
Thx u for sharing
Thanks, this settles it for me. I've been a guard user for a long time and hate it. I now know why dog groomers and others have such a speedy time. My head looks bad and i know it but gave up because of inconvenience and price. Never again. Just need to decide on brand. And my puppies are finally going to get some trims. A low grade regular guard based home clipper wont cut it. Literally. It did for a few trims. But fine cat hair no way. Coarse dog hair no way. I'm looking forward to the big league type.
I prefer the bald look. Would it be better to use a 00000 blade or a outliner blade for the bald to the skin look?
The outliner blade is shorter, but if you zero gap the 00000, it cuts really close.
Thanks u I'm a female an I'm trying to learn how to cut my own hair
Awesome! Just keep cutting and learning.
What clipper and blade would you suggest for balding? I've seen some andis blades down to 00000, then also heard about surgical blades. thanks!
Either the outliner blade or the 00000 will suffice for balding out.
Good stuff..
Thanks for the video brother... learning with an oster classic 76... what blades should i have for bald fades? So far i have 00000, 000 & 1... what else do you suggest i get?
OA, 1A, 11/2, 2, and 31/2 depending on your clientele.
so.. if your using the detachable blades... you have unscrew it everytime you change the setting.. ? would it takes too much time unscrewing the blades..???
You don’t have to unscrew anything unless you what to adjust the individual cutting Blade. Otherwise, you just take off each Blade to change to the next Blade.
@@TRAVELBARBERLIFE thanks man. Hope to see more videos .
Naw...quick change
Bro it's not your opinion it's a fact detachable blades make better haircuts💈 they r more detail. Big facts lol 💪💈💈
Good bay bro
I need some help
Can u send me the link
To buy detachable blades Andis or Oster
Where cca can I see on your videos on how to fade with the gards. I have the cordless oster. And I want to learn to fade with them.
Hello MMA Barber Life quick question do you zero gap all your detachable blades, or do you simply use them as is from the package.
Thank You 🙏🏾
I do! All of them are adjusted through the 2 blade.
I’m learning a lot I’m a new to clipper cuts but what does “zero gap” mean ? How should I do this ?
It means making the still and cutting blade flush with one another. You just have to loosen the screws, slide the blade up, and tighten it.
I could use a little advice. Im thinking of investing a little money into a pair of oster 76 clippers. I understand theres a single speed and a 2 speed oster 76. The 2 speed handles fine hair better but does not have a hole for clipper oil. These are going to be for home use for my kids and myself. Maybe the wife when she want that line in the back. Does it really matter about speed and the hole? Read all this info online so im not sure how true this information is legit. Include the cordless osters for the heck of it.
Speeds and the holes don't matter.

Thank u , I use Oster titan , can u please suggest if I really need to have a texturizing blade ?
It depends on the situation, but you can get through Barbering without it. I bought an 18 skiptooth Blade and never used it
I hear 18 skip tooth blade for cutting deeper waves is that correct At what length should you use it
Im still confused ..
In what way?
Dive in, get dirty! You'll get it player.
me too
🤣
do you have a prefered detachable blade for blending clipper over comb?
No! Either 00000-000 or 1 blade
What clippers are you using for the detachable blades?
Andis Supra Zr
When you zero gap the 00000 does it get as close as the outliner blade and would you go for ceramic blade or not? Thanks 🙏🏼
No, it would not. Think about it logically. The outliner blade is .1 millimeter shorter, therefore no. However, if you zerogap the 00000, and not the outliner, then yes, and vice versa. I have ceramic and regular steel blades. I like the ceramics alittle better.
MMA BARBER LIFE ah ok so both can be zero gapped I thought the outliner blade was fixed? So would you recommend a zero gapped 00000 ceramic edge over a non zero gapped outliner blade for balding out? Thanks for the reply!
That is your preference. They both will do a good job zerogapped
MMA BARBER LIFE thanks I’m just trying to work out why people would use the 00000 if the outliner can get shorter but I guess like you say it’s preference
TheWillDiamond it isn’t that difficult. Everyone reason is different. Mine is because the 00000 blades that I have were free. Why pay for something when you can get a good alternative for free?
What is a #1 guard equal to in mm please.
3mm
quick question, would a 3 1/2 ( detachable ) fade into a WAHL #4 guard if I’m fading down?
I have the detachable blades 1 through 3 1/2. I’ll substitute the 000-0a with adjustable clipper and after 3 1/2 if that makes any sense lol
Yes and no depending on the hair type and how you use the 3 1/2. Short answer is no because the 3 1/2 is quite shorter than a 4 guard.
I would say no as well. The 3 1/2 detach blade is equivalent to a Wahl #2 guard OPEN.
. If fading down the 3 3/4 detach blade could fade into the Wahl #4 if feathering it in correctly... the 3 3/4 detach is basically a wahl #3 guard so it is the best detach blade to fade into the Wahl #4. I sometimes go back and clean up the transition with a Wahl #3 guard OPEN. Hope this helps
Awesome
Great
What universal guards do you use on your detachable blades ?
Oster blades with Andis ceramic cutting blades.
I have a difficult question for you,,,,,,I have 2 blades ,, 1 is a 1.2 MM the other is 2 MM ,,,, both of them I zero gaped ,,, Both blades have the same number of teeth on top and bottom blade,,,,, Will they cut to the same length ?
Easy answer, HELL NO!
Ayyo idoitbarber i will buy the andis and oster detachable blades from a 00000 all the way to a 3/4 and put it on my wahl rapid fire detachable clipper bro!
So when you use the detachable guards on the Oster 76, which blade do I need to put on the osters? The 00000?
If you’re trying to put guards on your detachable blades, you can use the 000-00000.
First time I seen someone fading with plastic guards, I was so shocked they'd be doing that in a professional environment. I now understand why but I still don't think it looks right in front of a client.
Hey need some solid advice ASAP to place order. I received my SUPRA ZR ION. I'm newbie to the detachable blades. To start I can afford 4-5 different blades and so with there being so many sizes I'm overwhelmed. I need to get blades that will be a good start to get through standard clipper men's cut .ALSO CERAMIC IS A BIT MORE $$ then steel, do you think it's a good investment as I want the best but not clear what makes them better. 🤔🤯The salon I started at has non stop male clients(average JOE'S) WHO request the cookie cutter clipper cut. I'm so excited to really up my skills as the array of sizes look like fun. But I'll have gradually build my COLLECTION. I will be excited if someone pipes up because I REALLY NEED TO ORDER LIKE NOW. 😚🤗😫🤗🤗
The real question is, what blades do you have now? I ask because have blades from 00000 to 19mm.Second, I wouldn’t worry about ceramic and steel just yet. I would focus on getting better. I just happen to have both full sets of blades. I will say that the ceramic blades cut smoother in my opinion.
The 3-Hole Blade is that considered a Taper Balde
do you prefer the 1 1/4 and the 1 3/4 blades like will it make a big difference in ur fades n do u really need them?
I don’t have them, nor have I ever used them. I don’t feel they’re absolutely necessary
I have the oster octanes but I wanna get some supra zrs to try out. I hear there nasty man
I love em. You know how it goes...links to the Supra's are in the description. I wanna try the Octanes once just to say i did. How are they?
There powerful, ergonomic, and the battery life is great but there's only one speed and there expensive as hell. If the supra zr was out when I bought them, then I would of probably gone with andis.
Daniel Cooley nah lol
The ZR cuts similar to the octane but the zr is heavy af & its battery is not removable in a convenient manner, in other words if that battery fucks up you have to replace the clipper or have it fixed. Which andis is legit about i must say. Also, the speed system is more gimmick than useful. Imo at least. Maybe saving battery life is the only useful detail about it.
Daniel Cooley I would stick with the octane. The Supra zr's are ok, but you'll end up only using them only to bald out & do even all around cuts (which was the case for me). Out of all the clippers I own my octane is my baby. Its all a matter of preference though.
What do you prefer ultrablade or ceramic blade and why?
I have no preference tbh
@@TRAVELBARBERLIFE if the blade is starting to pull hair then do you just buy new blade or get it sharpened to save money from buying a new blade?
@@cheungman83 try sharpening it first
What do you use in place of the 0 guard far as with the detachables
The “1” Blade also using the corners or it helps achieve a longer length.
Hello, I’m starting barber school now, was given an pater 76 by a friend.
Would you suggest getting the 00000 and the 0000 blades?
You will need the 00000 & 000.
Thanks for getting back, I have the 000, 0a, 1, 1a already. You say just the 00000, last question you like the slimline li over the cordless t outliner?
I’ll be able to answer that question in about a week. I just got my hands on the cordless t outliner an hour ago.
Appreciate it, like your channel
One thing I don't see much is a temp fade using detachable blades. Any reason why?
hmmmm idk! maybe i'll have to change that...
I can't wait!
I got a question can u fade thin hair with detachable blades or is it better to use adjustable with thin hair
It doesn’t matter with blades. They all can get it!!!
MMA BARBER LIFE okay thank u
Do you know where get blades higher than 1A? I can’t seem to find them anywhere
Amazon or your local beauty supply
What's the sizes of all the detachable blades in the video
The blades I used in this video?
What is the outliner detachable blade used for?
Exactly that. Outlining and also balding out. Good blade but you can do the same with a 00000
which blades do you zero gap?
00000-1
Hi I'm using it buy when I used It gets hot.. it's normal?
yes, if you use it long enough.
@@TRAVELBARBERLIFE thank you so much.. have a good day..
Do detach blade clippers also have guards ?
They don’t come with guards.
@@TRAVELBARBERLIFE but i can buy em right ? for example : oster has a set of 10 universal guard combs .
i can just pop a 000 blade onto a 76 and do the rest with guards. thats an economical way out right ?
El Jefe yes and no. You don’t get the adjustability by doing that because some haircuts will need that.
@@TRAVELBARBERLIFE thank you very much sir !
So much to learn !
Double magnetics dont stay on the blades
Rudy Roberts you need to use magnetics that have only ONE magnet in the middle, those fit on 3 out metal guards, :)
Rudy Roberts the two magnet guards dont fit well, the one's fit SNUG SON!
Do you use an outliner blade or 00000 to bald out?
You know the answer to that. You’ve watched my videos before. I always use the 00000 to bald out and it’s zero gapped.
I guess a better question would be, why the 00000 over the outliner blade.
Because it’s zero gapped! ATD
Cool, thank you for your response and thanks for the content you put out man. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
10 blade is like the 0 guard
Is that comparing to a envi li cero gapped ?
Which scenario?
MMA BARBER LIFE when you compare the envi li closed to the 000 blade here is it to a clipper cero gapped ?
Yes, my Envy Li’s closed is the same as my 000 Blade. I hope this answers your question.
Skip to 3:58 for the needy greedy
Thought that shit said idiot barber 😂 good video tho
2000
You are my favor whall sucks why people do that blades are the real deal if you can fade with the blades them you a half barber
no middle man
Man this shit waaay to difficult
Lol! It really isn’t. If you go by the numbers and understand all of the tools.
I'd recommend lining them up in order and work your way down until you reach your desired grade.
