The Perfect Fade & Style With Crew Products.

Depending on how short the client wants to go helps me to determine which guard size to use. In Ethan's case he is trying to keep it a little on the longer side, I always use Clippers with the adjustable blade lever to help you blend in that extra 1/2 of an inch.

Ethan has a lot of cowlicks near the crown of his head. I believe in changing guards many times to make it flow cleanly and precisely . I started with a 3, 3 1/2 all the way up to a 5. Then scissor cut and texture the top.

Rub American Crew fiber in your hands about the size of a nickle. rubbing it will warm it up and help it liquefy just a little bit more to help make it more workable especially to separate the hair for texture or to help lay down cow licks.
