USING THE FADE COMBS

•  Before you start, decide how many steps you want to fade the haircut over. This will 

determine the number of ‘zones’ and also the number of grade combs you will need. 

The example in figure B shows 4 zones and therefore will need 4 grade combs (combs 

#2, #3, #4 and #5).

9.  Select the lowest length grade comb first (#2 in this example). Attach the comb to your 

clipper. Work in an upwards direction from the base of the hairline and continue around 

to each side of the head to establish the first zone. 

1.  Fit the next grade comb (#3 in this example), and continue from the first zone cutting in 

an upwards and outwards motion to establish the second zone.

2.  Repeat this technique with the remaining grade combs until all necessary zones are 

established.

3.  You will have ‘steps’ between each zone where the hair is at different lengths. The fade 

combs are used to blend or ‘fade’ hair that has been cut with two successive grade 

combs. For example, use the fade comb marked #2 – 3 (6 – 9 mm) to blend hair that has 

been cut using the #2 and #3 grade combs. Fade combs are marked with symbols 

showing which side of the head they are used on, and which direction to cut (fig. C and 

D). Fade combs marked with the symbol shown in figure C are used to cut between 

zones on the right hand side of the head from the front moving towards the centreline 

at the back. Combs marked with the symbol in figure D, are for the left hand side of the 

head.

Grade Comb

Fade Comb Pair

#0 (1.5 mm)

#0 - 1 (1.5 - 3 mm)

#1 (3 mm)

#1 - 2 (3 - 6 mm)

#2 (6 mm)

#2 - 3 (6 - 9 mm)

#3 (9 mm)

#3 - 4 (9 - 12 mm)

#4 (12 mm)

#4 - 5 (12 - 16 mm)

#5 (16 mm)

4.  Fit the appropriate fade comb and work horizontally from the side of the head to the 

centre at the back. Keep the clipper moving along the transition between the zones to 

blend the two lengths together. When you have done one side, fit the other fade comb 

and repeat on the other side of the head. Continue with the next pair of fade combs to 

blend between the next successive lengths.

5.  Use scissors to trim and cut hair on top of head, making sure to blend this into the 

length left at the upper zone.
