Has anyone used the self cut system for fades?

Breh took it back to the early worldstar days 
Just get a swivel wall mount mirror and mount it next to your bathroom mirror. Get the biggest you can find which is usually around ~10". I noticed that certain times of day are best for getting good lighting when cutting my hair.
I use a neckline template when doing the back of my head. I place mine higher and taper from the top down unlike most tutorials show.

I dont think just anybody can cut their own hair
) African hair so I'm not even gonna attempt it. I'll leave that shyt to my barber. Plus all this growing is solidifying my hairline.Breh took it back to the early worldstar days

I got it it's not bad at all. The mirror is really good to see every side and part of your head. You have to look at it carefully cause when 2 mirrors face each other and at an angle. It shows you everything flipped like a selfie camera. You thinking it's your right side but it's your left. It came with a DVD to show some tips. I had mines for like over 4 years now. Definitely gotta make sure it's good lighting wherever you use it. I use it in the bathroom cutting my hair. It's dope, but you probably can find a cheaper one but I like the way you can hook it to your door and adjust it to the height you want it at cause it got hooks to hang it up.
Thanks for the feedback homie

luckily for me its just one level, close to a baldie as possible couldnt do a fade even if i sported them.
go for it OP, in these times you atleast can practice (trial and error) im sure you'd get the hang of it after a few attempts.

Thanks breh. I'll try it.
Yes, anybody can do it. All it takes is practice. I started doing #2 evens on myself about 5 years ago now I can fade, taper, and cut the fukk out my hair. You will fukk yourself up in the process of learning, though. I'd never go pay another nikka $20 every two weeks again (that's $480 a year)...that's like paying somebody to cut your grass when you already have a lawnmower or can buy one cheap af.

I started with a pair of $20 Wahls, a regular bathroom mirror, and went to work. No system involved
did you use this system or another technique?
