HOW TO CUT THE HAIR
Situate the person whose hair you are going to
cut so that the top of their head is at your eye
level. Place a protective towel or cloth around
their neck.
To obtain best results is better to use the
appliance on dry hair, as it is much easier to
control the hair and the results.
Comb hair well before cutting. Make sure that
there are no tangles or knots.
Hold the appliance in calm and relaxed manner
in order to ensure maximum control of the cut
and uniform result. Proceed to use short cuts
gradually going around the head.
Leave the hair a little longer than desired length
as it can always be altered later.
While working adapt the comb/comb guide to
the desired result.
At regular intervals, stop cutting in order to
comb the hair and check the results so far.
Step 1 – Nape:
Attach the comb guide size 3 / 6 mm.
Hold the appliance with the razor facing
downwards and begin to cut the hair from the
base of the neck.
Make some upward movements, raising the
appliance gradually and away from the head,
cutting the hair gradually until the height of the
ears (Fig.3).
Step 2 – Back of head:
Attach comb guide size 10/13 mm and continue
with the back of the head (Fig.4).
Step 3 – Side of head:
Attach a new shorter guide, size 3 / 6 mm to trim
the sideburns.
Attach the longest comb guide size 10/13 mm
again and continue until you reach the top of
the head.
Step 4 – Top of head:
Using comb guide size 10/13 m, pass the
appliance from the back to the front, against
the growth of the hair (Fig.5). In some cases,
it’s necessary to go over what you have done a
second time from front to back.
The comb guide size 3 / 6 mm is for when you
want to achieve a more precise cut.
Use comb guides size 10/13 mm to leave hair at
a longer length. Hold the hair up with the comb
or the comb and your fingers and cut.
Always work form back to the front reducing the
length between your fingers or the comb and
the head gradually.
Step 5 – Final touch:
Finally use the appliance without attaching any
comb guides to the blades to cut the hair around
the base of the neck, the sides of the neck and
the ears.
To make sideburns straight, turn the appliance
over to use the upper blades (Fig.6). Move the
appliance adapting it the physiognomy of the
head. To achieve more precise results, use a
shaver.
