With only clippers.

6 on top, 2 on sides/back. Save hundreds a year.

Looks good on NW2 down, not sure how it would look on NW2.5+.

Something that looks good on nw2.5 or less, maybe nw3 if you still have decent density.

Fade the sides and back to .5 and gradually increase it to a 2 midway, making sure there is a huge contrast between the .5 and 2. Leave the top long to style.

This cut adds the illusion of more density to the top of the head as the lower sides are shaven to .5 or even bald fade looks really good

Pro tip: never cut your own hair when you are balding. It will look like sh*t, especially if you are going for elaborate comb forwards with sides that are faded, and make a nice transition.

Find a barber, & tip him well.

none of that first choice hair cutter bullshit. A real barber, preferably a brotha or those lebanese dudes. Best cuts in town.

avoid females. they generally suck at cutting hair. Even more so with balding men looking to work with what they got....Most are just generic clipper type cutters. Cant even fade and do tape ups
