INSTRUCTIONS FOR HAIR CUTTING
Note: For 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 fi rst time, start with the
maximum comb attachment
STEP 1 – Nape of the neck – DIAGRAM 1
Use 3 mm or 7 mm guide comb.
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 – DIAGRAM 2
With the 12 mm or 18 mm guide comb attached, cut the hair at the back of the head.
STEP 3 – Side of the head – DIAGRAM 3
With the 3 mm or 7 mm guide comb attached, trim sideburns. Then change to the longer
9mm guide comb and continue to cut the top of the head.
STEP 4 – Top of the head – DIAGRAM 4
With the 18 mm or 25 mm 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 fi ngers to lift it and cut it to the desired length.
Always work from the back of the head.
STEP 5 – The fi nishing touches – DIAGRAM 5
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.
