6. STEP 3 –SIDE OF THE HEAD:
Change to one of the shorter combs
3mm or 6mm, trim sideburns, i.e. the
hair directly in front of the ears.
Change to one of the longer combs,
9mm or 12mm, and continue to cut to
the top of the head (see diagram 3).
7. STEP 4 –TOP OF THE HEAD:
a) Using the comb attachment 9mm
or 12mrn, cut top of head from
back to front against the direction
in which the hair normally grows
(see diagram 4). In some cases,
this may require the reverse, or
cutting from front to back.
b) Comb attachments 3mm or 6mm
are used to achieve a close crew
cut or short cut.
c) For longer hair on top, use the
comb provided and lifts hair on
the top of the head. Cut over the
comb, with the hair lifted or hold
the hair between the fingers to lift
it and cut it to desired length
(see diagrams 5 and 6).
d) Always work from the back of the
head.
Hair can be cut shorter gradually
by reducing the space between
the comb/fingers, and the head.
Comb
out trimmed hair and check for
uneven strands.
