STEP 5 - THE FINISHING TOUCH
1. Finally, use the blade without an attachment
comb for close trimming around the base of
the neck, the sides of the neck and the ears.
2. To produce a clean straight line at the
sideburns, reverse the clipper by turning the
reverse side upwards (see diagram 7).
3. Place the clipper at a 90° angle towards the
head, allow the tips of the blades to lightly
touch the skin and work downwards. This
method will give a cut as clean as that of a razor.
SHORT TAPERED STYLES
‘FLAT TOPS’ AND SHORT CUTS
1. Starting with the longest attachment comb
(12mm), cut from the back of the neck to the
crown. Hold the attachment comb flat against the
head and slowly move the clipper through the
hair, as shown (see diagram 8).
2. Use the same procedure from the lower side to
the upper side of the head, as illustrated. Cut the
hair against the direction to which it grows from
the front to the crown and then level the cut with
the sides.
3. To give a ‘flat top’ look, the hair on top of the
head must be cut over the top of a flat comb
instead of using the attachment comb.
4. Use closer cutting attachment combs to taper the
hair down to the neckline as desired. Comb hair
and check for uneven areas.
