There was a guy on here who posted pics of his haircut. but i can't find the post. If you see this feel free to respond. Or anyone else who cuts their own hair. I really want to perfect a fade.. meaning that I want to cut the bottom of my own hair,, bottom of the neck etc.. on a number 2 guard. I want to do the number 2 guard from the bottom of the nape up to about 2 or 3 inches. like right up to the middle of the ear roughly. than i want to do a fade where i can blend that no. 2 into something like a number 5, or 6. I don' thave that much room to work with so its hard to keep going from a 2, to a 3, to a 4 to a five etc. I think the way to do this is clippers over comb, but i can't do that myself with one hand holding a mirror. Any advice?

Below is an illustration.. Its not exactly to scale.. but just the general idea of what I am talking about. I believe i Have more room to work with than in this pic, but its not much room.
