TIPS FOR A BARBER’S BEST HAIR CUT
TIPS FOR BEST RESULTS
For even cutting, allow the guide comb/blade to cut its way through the hair. Do not
force it through quickly. If you are cutting for the first time, start with the maximum
guide comb, until you know how short you would like your hair to be.
The comb guide lengths described for use in the steps below are an example only,
if you want a longer or shorter hair cut you will need to adjust the comb guide
lengths to suit your requirements.
STEP 1 - NAPE OF THE NECK
1. Use 3mm or 6mm guide comb.
2. Hold the hair clipper with the blade teeth pointing upwards. Begin starting at the
centre of the head at the base of the neck.
3. Slowly lift the hair clipper, working upwards and outwards through the hair,
trimming just a little at a time.
STEP 2 - BACK AND SIDE OF THE HEAD
1. With the 9mm or 12mm guide comb, cut the hair at the back of the head.
STEP 3 - SIDE OF THE HEAD
2. With the 9mm or 12mm guide comb, trim sideburns.
3. Then change to the longer 22mm guide comb and continue to cut to the top of the
head.
STEP 4 - TOP OF THE HEAD
1. Using the 25mm guide comb, cut the hair on top of the head against the direction
in which the hair normally grows.
2. For longer hair on top, use scissors. Lift the hair on top of the head with your
fingers. Cut the hair between your fingers to the desired length.
3. Always work from the back of the head.
STEP 5 - THE FINISHING TOUCHES
1. Use the hair clipper without an attachment comb for close trimming around the
base and sides of the neck.
2. To produce a clean straight line at the sideburns, reverse the clipper. Place the
reversed hair clipper at right angles to the head, tips of the blades lightly touching
the skin and then work downwards.
FOR A CLOSE SHAVE LOOK ON THE HEAD
NOTE: The Head Trim-Shave blade only works on shorter length hair.
1. First, use the hair clipper blade without a comb attached to it and trim your hair
making sure all hair is trimmed back.
2. Remove the hair clipper blade and then replace with the Head Trim-Shave blade.
