thats fly!!! Technique is amazing Brotha . Good to see the detachable clippers out. Your channel is legit ,You explain what you doing great with detail. Thank you for the content!!
I appreciate the info on the comparison of the 0A blade to an open blade; 000 is like a closed Blade...those are the tidbits i look for and the clippers that one prefers, how the cut and the comfort of the client...so much detail...exciting!
Very enjoyable and educational video. Nice to see these fades performed with detachable blades. Great job! I use the complete Oster detachable blade clipper system as well. I have the full range of Oster blades and guards. This gives me great flexibility in blade sizes. The “a” blades add the perfect increment to the other Oster clipper blades. As well the Oster plastic guards give an additional increment. Currently I am using the Oster Octane to drive the high quality Oster blades.
SCRAFT BLENDZ I use the Oster brand plastic guards. These guards fit on the detachable metal Oster blades for Octane, Classic 76, Titan etc and Fast Feed adjustable blade(s)very snugly. Some people suggest the Andis magnetic plastic guards but I have found they fit a little loose. The magnets are pretty strong but the plastic guards can fall off. The Oster plastic guards are made of a hard plastic and metal spring loaded clips. This make for a nice tight fit. My only complaint is that sometimes when applying the Oster guards on the Octane, the detachable blade can shift forward slightly. This occurs when applying the plastic guard over the detachable blade while running. This does not occur with the 76 and Titan clippers. This problem is eliminated with a bit of practice and technique however. The plastic guards are available as single sizes or in a pack of 8. One final note: I use the lower number plastic guards #4 - #1 on clients with acute occipital structure (boys and seniors) as I find that by doing so allows for a smoother taper than using bare metal blades alone.
I love the cuts I get with my Oster clippers. Been using them for 30 years. I'm switching it up with Wahl Seniors, just to learn a new clipper protocol. My Osters will never be far from my hand. Enjoyed this tutoriial, thanks and stay blessed.
Yoooo this my first time watching your video and I just started really using detachable blades and watching this video just made me want to really better myself using these and I to also started watching Shearfades videos learning to use them but this video is super dope cause I actually felt like I was personally there watching you do this cut I got to see and hear what you were doing now that I’m going to make it my mission to become a better barber 💈🔥💯 PS: I’m a new subscriber now
This was really beneficial for understanding blade sizes to guards. I use detachables in my Arsenal. They clear bulk way faster and cleaner I find. I deff need a few more blades after watching this. Thank you bro. Much love. Keep doing this please 🙌🏻
Bro IMO you blow bossio out the water son! God bless you man. And you got an edge on all the others cause you are a God and Jesus fearing man. Blessing to you bro.
Bruh this tutorial is legendary🔥. Thank you for comparing this to the wahl gaurd system. It makes sense now. If you can make a tutorial with using detachables to upgrade and come back down with wahl premium gaurds? Or do one side with detachables and other with the wahl gaurds ?
I've recently started fading with my Supras and I find it easy to skip blades setting in my sections with the flick out motion then coming back with the blade I skipped to take out each line between each section
And thank you sir! I’m from the old school of barbers and cutting hair. I learned cutting with Oster 111s and 76s. It’s refreshing to see fades done with detachables nowadays!
Great content, teaching and humility. Thanks bro. Whats a good air brush machine to invest in. ? I'm looking forward to video teaching how to mix the Kiss and alcohol
Have you used the modified oa or is it not worth it? Also I’ve seen you use the andis 2 3/4 blade did you have to modify it for it fit the octanes. Thanks man for the content. I only use octanes so focused on perfecting it.
0A is equivalent to Andis Master halfway open...maybe for those cheap Wahl clippers it's the whole blade open. A "1" is the equivalent of Andis Master fully opened.
Wahl lever doesn't open as much as a master or fast feed so you are correct and he is correct. That's why you don't need a 1.5 guard for fast feeds or Masters but you do with the wahm
The Wahl Legends open up much wider than the other Wahl clippers but you are correct about the other Wahl clippers. I was all Wahl for the longest time but I noticed for quite a few years now I gravitated to detachable blades as well as the Oster Fast Feeds.
Nice video 👌🏾 but I feel like the equivalent from the blades to the wahls are a bit off that’s y I’m getting a lil confused sometimes while your explaining. I’m being taught that a ‘1’ blade is a wahl clipper Open. Halfway is the ‘0A’ blade & closed is ‘000’ Like u mentioned. Then ‘1 1/4’ is a wahl half guard closed. Then the “1A” blade is a wahl half guard open. Then ‘1 1/2’ blade is the 1guard open etc etc ...... but The fade down method is something I may need to start trying.

Just ordered a oster model 10. It comes with a #1 blade and a #000 blade. What blade would be best to order to get that true bald to the skin look. I know some say #00000 but some say #outliner blade. What do you think in best? I like a true bald look with a goatee
The barbershop I work at only allows detachable blades. Which I feel limits my abilities in a way. Right now I'm using Andis Bgr + love em . I use the Oster Octanes also BUT they are noisey as all hell. Take the same blade and put it on the Andis and Soo quiet.I think for $300 I paid for the Octanes Oster could've should've made the damn things quieter. I'm so done with Oster. Waste of three bills 285 to exact. If you like quieter clippers DONT get the Octanes... Believe me your clients will be happier without that noise in their ears. Lol and so will your co-workers.!! Nice fade by the way.
It really does limit you. A fade with detachable clippers will work on some types of hair, but not all of them. Most types of hair require an adjustable, because you need to be able to get in between blade sizes. Detachable blades also limit the types of fade blends that you can do.
It's not your clippers that miss spots. It's usually the client head and hair type. I cut my own hair and my hair is like his and I notice the same dark spots on my head . Can't get them out for a reason .
One thing to let viewers know is that you can really cut someone's ear bad with detachable blades if you do not fold the ear down. Especially the 1.5 and 2 blade. Because it has very large cutting teeth
3:51 Great Video! Welcome to what some barbers call the "Dark Side" of barbering (using detachable clippers). I too had issues with the 3 1/2 so I switched to using the 4FC blade. This was originally meant for pets but a local pet groomer told me that her barber/boyfriend made this same switch and noticed more thorough/smooth cuts. To understand this more please see my video on detachable clipper blades ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-MQ2GuAqDDoc.html

The 00000 blade is equivalent to your trimmers, the 000 blade is equivalent to your adjustable clippers all the way closed so it's a 0, the 0A blade is equivalent to your adjustable clippers halfway open so it's a 1/4, the 1 blade is equivalent to your adjustable clippers all the way open so it's a 1/2 like the 1/2 guard on Wahl and the 0 guard on Andis all the way closed, the 1 1/4 blade is equivalent to your 1/2 guard on Wahl and the 0 guard on Andis halfway open so it's 3/4, the 1A blade is equivalent to your 1 guard all the way closed, the 1 1/2 blade is equivalent to your 1 guard halfway open so it's a 1 1/4, the 1 3/4 blade is equivalent to your 1 1/2 guard on Wahl all the way closed and your 1 guard all the way open on Andis, the 2 blade is equivalent to your 2 guard all the way closed, the 2 3/4 is equivalent to your 2 guard all the way open so it's a 2 1/2, the 3 1/2 blade is equivalent to your 3 guard all the way closed, the 3 3/4 blade is equivalent to your 4 guard all the way closed, the 5/8 blade is equivalent to your 5 guard all the way closed and your 3/4 blade is equivalent to your 6 guard all the way closed!
