Step 4 – Top of the Head
•
With the 16mm or 18mm guide comb attached, cut hair on top of the
head against the direction in which the hair normally grows.
•
For longer hair on top, use without a guide comb. Lift the hair on top
of the head with a small hand comb. Cut over the hand comb with the
hair lifted or hold the hair between the fingers to lift it and cut it to the
desired length.
•
Always work from the back of the head.
Step 5 – The Finishing Touches
•
Use the clipper without an attachment comb for close trimming around
the base and sides of the neck. Use the ear comb guides to get a
clean line around each ear. For the required ear comb guide, angle the
clipper and lightly stroke around each ear to the back of the neck.
•
To produce a clean straight line at the sideburns, reverse the hair
clipper.
•
Place the reversed clipper at right angles to the head, tips of the
blades lightly touching the skin and then work downwards.
Taper Lever
The taper lever adjusts the length of cut when not using comb attachments.
It is suggested to set the blades closest together when using the comb
attachments. Half grade sizes can be achieved by using the taper lever with
comb attachments.
