How to Do A Skin Fade Haircut | Step By Step Tutorial For Beginners

This video is on how NOT to do a skin fade haircut. We took this video down initially because of the negative feedback we received but we thought it could be useful to show what NOT to do so barbers can avoid making the same mistakes.

0:00 Consultation
0:22 Remove Bulk (unnecessary step unless you can't see guidelines)
1:31 Create First Guideline
2:39 Create Second Guideline (did not leave enough room to blend)
3:10 Shave Hair Under Guideline (took the shaver too close to the guideline, did not leave enough room to blend)
4:34 Fade First Guideline (cannot properly erase lines when you don't have enough room to blend)
5:55 Fade Second Guideline
8:13 Use Shaver To Erase Line (can't erase the shaver line because there isn't enough room to blend)
10:39 Scissor Cut Top Of Hair (sections are too big, leads to uneven cut. Don't take large sections, don't cut if you can't see your previous guide)
11:55 Cross-checking Top (shows how uneven hair is, cross checking should always be done regardless)
12:49 Blend In Beard
13:52 Neck Shave With Razor
14:44 Final Touch Ups (still trying to erase first guideline)
