QUESTION: yeah  the oster fast feeds blade goes 000 to 1 and i got the wahl seniors today and the blade  goes 0000 to something.

Which clipper do you think is better to do a low fade?

thanks

Answer
they probably go 0000- o any way I would start off with a 3 all over once you get to the sides go all the way up with the 2,  1 1/2, 1A, etc. and all the way down until you are satisfied. Some people start there fades out with a line, I find that way harder and more time consuming. An old barber once told me the best way to get rid of a line, is to not put one in. The way I just explain to you, you will not put one in it will take a lot of practice but like with any thing the more you do it the better you will become I hope this was helpful any thing else feel free to ask
