A regular at my shop in Akron told me my clipper work was too fast
He said I was rushing the blend on his sides and it felt rough. I slowed down my passes with my Wahl Seniors and really focused on the pressure. The fade came out way smoother. How do you guys find the right speed for different hair types?

My buddy had a client with super thick, coarse hair who complained about the clipper tugging. He realized he was going way too slow, letting the blades catch. He switched to quicker, lighter passes with his Magic Clips and it was like butter. Totally changed his approach for that hair type.

Yeah, you gotta move fast with that hair type... slow passes just grab and pull.

But is it really that big of a deal? Some clippers just pull no matter what you do. A quick pass might help, but sometimes the hair is just too thick and the blades get stuck anyway.
