Hey guys, FjCuts here and in this video I’m breaking down a full mens low skin fade haircut tutorial on my boy Jayden. We’re keeping it low around the ear, keeping the shape clean, and leaving the top for that slick back look. I start by clipping and combing the hair on top so I’ve got a clean slate to fade into—no overhangs, no guessing. Then I set my first guideline (my balding line) with my trimmers, staying low because with a low fade it’s easy to accidentally turn it into a mid fade if you rush. From there it’s all about building the fade properly: I debulk with a #2 guard flicking out, hit the bottom with the foil shaver without smashing straight into the line, then work my way through the guards using a light wrist and the corners of the blade. I’m constantly dusting him off so I can actually see what’s dark and what needs work, and I stretch the skin with my free hand to help the clipper/trimmer catch hairs in heavy areas. I finish with a clean shape-up (light taps, don’t push it back) and a bit of scissor work on top so the sides sit nicely into the fade.
