JRL faper blade

Wondering if the JRL fade blade is more of a faper blade. Seen some people online say so but just making sure. Chatgpt says 70 fade 30 taper lmao.

Don't know what to do

Been cutting hair on and off for just under a year now. I take massive breaks not BC I want too but BC of money. I think right now I've been on close to a 5 month break since being in a shop. Just haven't been able to find one to take me in. This does impact my confidence I won't lie. I also have huge confidence issues - part of the reason why I went into this is to help people feel confident and build my self confidence in myself again. Finally I have an opportunity at sports clips and a high end barbershop. I know most people will knock sportsclips but I'm just wondering if I'm even good enough to work there (will post pics of my work). I'm around 45 mins for a fade. The higher end barbershop I'd do part time and the owner is fine with me taking my time to polish my skills before going into commission as in he'll pay me minimum for days I'm there - at least that's what we've discussed in the interview which went well but nothing has come to fruition out of it yet. The owner is a bit disorganized but that's to be expected it's his 3rd shop he's opening and id be the only one in there with him.

TLDR: am I good enough for sports clips at least?

I have the TPOB x trimmer that comes out of the box with the Crazy blade. Shits are too sharp for me as a beginner. Idc about lineups I'm becoming a stylist and doing men's fades but rarely have to do crispy white lined lineups. I'm looking for a trimmer/blade that can remove bulk and not leave a hard guideline. I know I can use my clipper but personally I just like the feel of putting it in with the trimmer which I use to do with an andis slimline but it sucks at debuljing. Tpob with softy or adjust the krazy to the point it cuts like a softy if that's a possibility?

I have the tpob trimmers with the krazy blade. They cut too damn sharp. I don't have sensitive skin but it leads to red bumps all over. Clients complain. My question is is it the trimmer itself or should I adjust the blade or something?

How long did it take you to get into a salon after school? Where did you go first and how long did you stay there? When did you start getting booked - and how booked are you? Tips and tricks and what can I look forward too in this career?
