That fade guide on Instagram changed my whole approach to blending
I was struggling for months to get clean fades on thicker hair types, especially around the parietal ridge. Saw this barber from Chicago post a video where he uses a C-clamp grip on the clipper instead of the usual palm hold. Tried it on my next four clients and the control was way better. The clipper didn't wobble as much when I was transitioning between guards. It let me blend from a 1.5 to a 2 without those harsh lines I kept getting before. Also helped with wrist fatigue on longer cuts. Has anyone else messed around with different clipper grips or am I late to this?

Bet your wrist'll thank you" - it's funny how fixing one small thing makes you wonder what else you've been doing wrong.

Totally changes how you look at everything else.
