Can you fade with non adjustable clippers?
Yes, heck you don't even need clippers to cut hair. But they sure make life a little easier especially if your doing a bald fade (a.k.a skin fade). Scissors and comb can easily do the trick. If you set on using clippers use the clipper-over-comb technique.
