Four must follows for the perfect fade

The fade is a classic cut with many variations. And whether you’re going high, or you’re going low, precision and detail are key. We talked with Andis and GIBS Grooming educator, Danny Amorim, aka Success Addict, on his four must-follow steps to help you nail the perfect fade, the first time, every time.

Consults Are Critical

"The initial consultation is critical to the perfect fade. Your client’s hair has to be evaluated to determine exact texture. And before you start, you have to know if there are any imperfections in the head, and especially the cowlick area, so you know if you are executing a low fade, medium fade or high fade."

Bottoms Up or Top Down?

"There are a multitude of ways to execute the perfect fade as long as the end result is great! Many like to fade hair from the bottom up, but in my 20 years of experience, I’ve caught myself losing control of the height of the blend. I prefer to fade hair from the top down. I begin working in the parietal ridge to remove any bulk or work around the cowlick (so I keep the crown on my king!). Then I work my way down the side working area, using a consistent C-stroke motion while continuously dropping the clipper guard sizes."

Mean and Clean

"Clean work is critical for the perfect fade! Whether using a comb or brush, constantly cut and comb the hair. Hair moves; the closer and tighter the fade, the more detail is involved. Constantly cleaning your work means you’ll avoid leaving behind lines, shadows or imperfections in your fade."

Fine Tune The Fade

"The perfect fade calls for precision and patience. Once you think you’re done, take an extra 3 to 5 minutes to fine tune the fade. Go back and polish any areas you feel may lead to leaving a line, shadow or imperfection behind. The last thing any barber or stylist wants is to watch a client step out of the chair, then have to call him back in once the light hits his hair. Never settle for just a 'good haircut.' Every haircut should be great!"

The ketogenic diet is the most popular diet fad when it comes to weight loss. It is touted to be one of the most effective diet plans to lose weight and science supports this fact. Keto is a low-carb diet which focuses on the consumption of fats and proteins. This puts the body into ketosis. Ketosis is a process in which the body starts burning fat instead of glucose for energy. This is one of the best diet plans for quick weight loss. However, it might not be that effective for everyone. Yes, the most popular diet fad of all time may not fetch the desired results for every person who tries it.

Despite what people rave about, or sometimes, despite your best efforts, it can happen that the Ketogenic diet doesn’t really spell results for you and does not help you lose weight in the manner you desire. This can be very unsettling and frustrating, given the diet restrictions Keto forces you to adhere to.

While anxiety and stress can play into neuropathy, they can’t actually damage your nerves. This means that stress isn’t a root cause of neuropathy. Even if you’re incredibly stressed every day for months, that by itself won’t cause damage to your nerves.

This process is called ketosis.” He said these ketone bodies have large quantities of acetone which are exhaled in the form of sweat and urine. “During the changing metabolic process, the smell is a bit fruity and sweet. When there is a complete switch in the body, the smell changes to that of ammonia or cat litter.”

Drink water. Water is the key to life, and it turns out it’s also one of the easiest ways to help your metabolism. Drinking water increases your metabolism by up to 25% for nearly an hour after drinking it. That means if you drink a few cups of water every hour, you’ll keep your metabolism at peak performance all day.
