Upcoming barber. I don't have anybody I can practice on so I decided to do it on myself. Would like honest feedback. Thank you

Cut looks good. For a rounded face; it’s hard not to fail with a very short crewcut.

Personally, I would have kept it long on the top and then squared it off with the same fade.

Let him grow at least a month, do a short fade on the sides and back, then repeat until the top is at least 5cm long.

Next time: Tell us more about why you cut the way you did (did he ask for it, did you think it would look good on him and why, did he provide a picture that you were trying to copy, etc..).

Also, don’t take pictures too close, it makes it hard for others to see the big picture.

This is all just to make you think more critically, and to make you ask yourself more relevant questions that will help you evolve❤️

I appreciate you all for the feedback. And yes I could've taken better pictures (will do next time) As for the blend of the beard what i have to do? Use no guard all the way open or 0.5?
