the appliance on wet hair.

you are cutting is at the same level as your chest.This
ensures that all parts of the head are clearly visible
and within easy reach.
1 Comb the hair in the direction of hair growth.

to create a certain hairstyle as a reminder for
future clipping sessions.
- To clip most effectively, move the appliance
against the hair growth direction.
- Move the appliance in different directions
(upward, downward or across), because hair
doesn’t all grow in the same direction.

ensure that the appliance catches all the hairs
that need to be cut.
