INSTRUCTIONS FOR CUTTING YOUR HAIR
The Rapid Cut Hair Clipper’s ergonomic design provides many different ways of holding
the clipper in use. Recommended ways of holding the clipper can be seen below.
»
For clipping the top of the head (see fig. 1).
»
For clipping the back of the head (see fig. 2).
»
For clipping the sides of the head (see fig. 3).
»
For detailing (see fig. 4).
• For all over and even cutting, allow the comb attachment/blade to cut its way
through the hair.
• Do not force it through quickly.
• If you are cutting for the first time, start with the maximum comb attachment.
• For one all over cut length, attach the desired guide comb and slowly guide the
clipper through the hair against the direction the hair normally grows.
• To produce a clean straight line at the sideburns and the base of the neck, 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.
The following instructions are for those users who want different trimming lengths on
the sides, back and top of the head:
STEP 1 – NAPE OF THE NECK
• Set the comb to 3mm or 6mm.
• Hold the clipper with the blade teeth pointing upwards. Begin starting at the centre
of the head at the base of the neck.
• Slowly lift the clipper, working upwards and outwards through the hair, trimming
just a little at a time.
STEP 2 – BACK OF THE HEAD
• With the comb set at 9mm or 12mm, cut the hair at the back of the head.
STEP 3 – SIDE OF THE HEAD
• With the comb set at 3mm or 6mm, trim sideburns. Then change to the longer
9mm guide comb and continue to cut the top of the head.
