not wet.

imately at your eye level, cover the person’s
shoulders with a towel and set hair with the comb
(11).
–
Always start cutting from the back of the head.
–
You can cut hair against and along the direction
of hair growth, but keep in mind that the hair cut
against the growth will be shorter than the hair
cut along the growth.
–
To leave longer hair, take hair locks between your
fingers and cut hair using the hair clipper.
–
Always cut off a little amount of hair at a time; you
can always return to the cut area again for addi-
tional cutting.
–
Set the hair with the comb (11) to reveal uneven
locks.
–
You can lift the hair locks and cut them along the
comb (11).

Use scissors to trim hair.

With time you will learn to arrange your hair in any
style you need.
