STEP 4 – TOP OF THE HEAD
•
With the 12mm 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.
•
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.
