A full system for skin fades — how to plan the gradient before you start, which guard at which elevation, and how to fix mistakes before the client sees them.

What you'll learn

  • Plan a fade before the clippers touch the head.
  • Use guards, lever and freehand in the correct sequence.
  • Execute low, mid and high fades with the same system.
  • Fix common fade mistakes without starting over.
  • Blend into scissor work without a visible transition.

What you'll need

  • Working clipper + trimmer + straight razor.
  • Completed at least 50 fades in a real setting.
  • A mirror and a brightly-lit space.
