In This Precision 5-Inch Shear Mastery, Frank Soto, known professionally as Frank Da Barber, delivers an advanced, detail-driven cutting experience designed for professionals who demand control at the highest level.

This class focuses on the power of the 5 inch shear as a precision instrument rather than a finishing tool. Frank breaks down how shorter blades allow for increased accuracy, cleaner lines, and unmatched consistency in high-detail work.

For stylists, the session dives deep into layer construction, teaching how to create more layers, finer layers, and controlled internal layering without bulk or over texturizing. Attendees will learn how to refine shape, manage weight distribution, and achieve seamless transitions through intentional shear placement and micro-sectioning

For barbers, the emphasis is on precision cutting that rivals and often surpasses trimmer results. Frank demonstrates how to produce crisp outlines, tight tapers, and ultra-clean finishes using shear-only techniques, allowing for softer grow-out, elevated detail, and a more refined end result

Throughout the class, Frank teaches

- Advanced hand positioning and blade control

- Sectioning for accuracy and efficiency

- Creating definition without harsh line

- Achieving luxury finishes through disciplined precision

This is not a speed-cutting class. It is a study in control refinement, and intentional craftsmanship—designed for professionals ready to elevate their work beyond standard technique and into superior style.
