Feedback from a client's mom changed my fade after 5 years
I had this one regular who always got a mid fade from me, never complained. Then his mom came in with him last month and said the transition from the skin to the hair looked rushed. She showed me a picture of exactly how she wanted it blended. I spent 20 minutes on just that fade, using a .5 guard open and closing the blade slowly. Now I do that step on every client and it looks way cleaner. Anyone else had a client's relative teach them something they missed?

Moms have a way of noticing things we've gotten blind to over time. That trick with the .5 guard and closing the blade slowly is a good one, I've started doing the same thing after a client's dad pointed out a similar issue with my fades. Sometimes the most useful feedback comes from someone just watching closely rather than the person in the chair.
