1. To attach a guide comb, affix it firmly to the holders at the side of the
trimmers.
2. For an even cut, let the trimmer do the work – don’t force it through the hair.
Remember to comb the hair at regular intervals to remove loose hair, and to
see if there are any uneven sections.
HOW TO CUT HAIR:
Step 1 – lower neck:
1. Attach 3 mm or 6 mm guide comb
2. Hold the trimmer with the blade/cutter turned upwards, and start at the
middle of the head at the nape of the neck.
3. Hold the trimmer so that it feels comfortable in your hand, and keep it
steady against the head, with the teeth pointing upwards. Lift the trimmer at
small intervals, so that it works its way upwards and outwards, through the
hair, cutting a little at a time.
4. As you cut, lift the head of the trimmer back towards yourself at small
intervals. Continue cutting the hair on the neck, from the base of the hairline
to the top of the ears.
Step 2 – the back of the head
1. Change to one of the longer guide combs and trim the rest of the neck
area.
Step 3 – the sides of the head:
1. Change to one of the shorter guide combs and trim the sideburns (the hair
just in front of the ears). After this, switch to a longer guide comb, and
continue to cut to the top of the head.
Step 4 – the top of the head:
1. Use the longest guide comb and trim the topmost hair, starting from the
back and working your way forward, in the opposite direction to the actual
hair growth. Sometimes it is necessary to cut the hair the opposite way.
For a longer cut, use the comb that accompanies the trimmer to lift the hair on
the top of the head. Then let the trimmer pass over the comb to cut the hair to
the desired length. You can also use your fingers for this. Always work from the
back forwards. You can cut the hair shorter by altering the distance from the
scalp to the comb/your fingers. Comb any loose hair out, and check to see if
there are any uneven sections.
Step 5
Finally, use the trimmer without attaching a guide comb for a closer cut around
the base and sides of the neck and ears.
To achieve an even cut around the sideburns, turn the trimmer over. Press the
trimmer gently and steadily against the skin and run it downwards to achieve a
result similar to that of a razor.
