This guy has the best tutorials in youtube 😅. Explaining everything in details, plus you get to learn some barber history and terms. Well done Matty. 💪🏼
Why can't I ever find a barber who can do a great job like this? It's so frustrating how many people out there who cut hair who can't cut hair well

I have a video that might help you find one
I'm amazed how well this video has been made. The cut is flawless, your skills are amazing, and the whole video was so enjoyable that I wanted to watch it again straight away. Well done sir🙏
I’ve been watching A TON of fading videos for months, from all the top KZread barbers...This is the best one so far. Great work. Helps a lot. Much thanks
Maddie Conrad, You sir are AWWWWESOME!!! Our Instructor, Ms. Roni LOVES you!!!! She is the one who introduced us to you & your genius!!! I am a Cosmetology student at The Beauty School in NC & you have become one of my idols now!!! I hope to take one of your classes in the future!!! You are an amazing human-being!! Rock on!!
Refreshing to watch a craftsman at work! Just come across your channel, really interesting. Well done.
Wow.. I just wished I would've seen this video sooner. What can I say.. PERFECT and FLAWLESS. I wish you lived closer to me. I'm located in Michigan USA. I cut my own hair and for friends and family. I will definitely try these steps. Thanks for this video

I'm in your same boat. MI, self haircuts, the lot. 😂 Glad this video is helping some of us in the Great Winter Wonderland.
I really like how you describe each step and and how to do it well. I love that you give us the list of each tool you use. This is how I got equipped for my barber course. You are a real inspiration ✂️🧔
Best, most thorough fade and cut tutorial I’ve found. Thx Matty from a barber school newbie! You’re an excellent teacher/communicator.

That's a great video ❤💈
You amaze me!💌
Great video Conrad
Loved the video. I've been cutting my own hair since I was about 18 (I'm 42 now). I'd love to see a video on how to do a similar haircut for wavy to curly hair, so that I can get comparable results with my hair. Thanks in anticipation.
Amazing 🤩

@@mattyconradgrooming This video was probably one of the most clearly explained ones I have seen . I'm a barber of 30 years and totally loved it ! Kudos
So first off, Matty, this video is just about the most perfect fade tutorial on the KZreads. However, I just wanted to kindly point out that in the first half, you only faded down to a .5 guard halfway closed, but on the other side you faded all the way down to .5 fully closed. Wanted to make sure everything was even on both sides! 😂 Peace and good vibes, brotha.

@mattyconradgrooming Not to worry, my good man. I think those of us who were cutting their own hair in step with the video (or maybe just me?) figured it out fairly quickly. 😅👍🏻

I don’t like or comment on many vids, but you Sir are a pro. You have actually inspired me to become a barber. I love your tutorials. They are easy to follow and they are set above the rest. Thank you. Keep up the great work. I wish I lived nearby. I would definitely visit your shop. Any advice on barber colleges? There’s a Paul Mitchell MTI college close to me. Any advice would be helpful.

Awesome video! Do you think you can do one for just a beard to bald head fade?
What a great video, is there a chance to you, that you make the same process with a andis master? The result is the same? Because the thing that I know is that andis cut more hair without guards right?
Super Bro
Hi ! I have a question,should i use beard balm? I tend to have a "not so shiny" beard and the fly away hairs are not looking good either.
@MattyConrad Are you using Wahl clipper guards on the Babyliss Pro Clipper? If so, which ones are they?
I have a question please. Why use the 1 closed, then the half guard open? Why not go right to the half guard open after the 1 open? Thank you for the great video
Amazing Content! Well don’t Matty!

How is this same fade done by using a detachable blade clipper?
Hmm how can I buy your prodcts from Switzerland? 😕
I noticed you are using wahl guards on your babyliss clippers. Is that on purpose because I do the same thing! I like the wahl guards better. Or is it just me

Absolutely. for slight cases I highly suggest WASH from Victory Brand... it uses gentle plant based cleansers, Super conditioning oils, and Activated charcoal as a detoxifier. Using it daily greatly reduces skin irritation and dryness.

@@mattyconradgrooming I don’t think best hairstylist fail but I get the point. Love your videos.
I notice you uses the #1 guard open to fully closed on one side. On the other side you used #1 guard open to half closed. Any particular reason for that?
@mattyconradgrooming

I must have screwed that up in editing. I used the same process for both sides. However a #1 guard closed in theory should be the same as a .5 guard open but it almost never is... that’s why it pays to go over it again.

What happened to your INSTAGRAM Matty ?
How much a haircut like that would set a poor soul back?????
Maybe it's just because I've been rockin' the big baldy for 10+ years, but I've yet to see a more douchy haircut than a parted skin fade.
Anyone else notice the booger hanging out?
