8. TIPS FOR A SUCCESSFUL HAIRCUT
• Use the hair trimmer on clean, dry hair
• Dry the hair in the direction of the hairstyle you wish to obtain
• Position the person whose hair you are going to cut in such a way as to be able to see the top of
his/her head (Fig. 4)
Before starting a cut, examine the hollows and bumps on the head, which are often located at the
nape of the neck (if you place the trimmer directly against a bump, you will obtain a lighter area).
• At the beginning, only cut a small quantity of hair, until you are familiar with the length left by each
comb.
• Never stop the trimmer in mid-stroke.
• Start with the comb with the highest number (i.e. the one which leaves the most hair) before using
another comb.

9. FOR A SUCCESSFUL ROUND CREW CUT
BASIC METHOD
With this method, the cut follows the shape of the skull (fig. 5).
• Combs necessary for this cut : n° 1, 3, 4 (fig. 6).
• Do not forget to change the comb as you progress through the hair.
1st STAGE : THE CUT.
a) Nape
• Brush the hair.
• Begin by cutting the hair at the nape upwards, using comb n° 4.
• Hold the trimmer firmly against the hair, with the comb's teeth pointing slightly upwards (fig. 7).
• Slowly raise the hair trimmer towards the top and outside of the hair, cutting only a small amount of
hair at a time (fig. 8).
• Once the hair at the nape has been evenly cut using comb n° 4, replace the removable comb in order
to obtain the required length and repeat the first 3 operations.
• Stop the cut at regular intervals, comb the hair and check the result.
b) Sides and top
• Repeat the above operations to cut the sides.
• Change the comb as you change areas (see fig. 6).
• For the top, use the same technique, cutting the hair from the forehead to the crown, against the "lie
of the hair" (fig. 9). Then, level off to match the sides.
2nd STAGE : CONTOURS AND FINISH
a) Nape and sideburns
• Comb the hair.
• Take off the removable comb from the hair trimmer.
• Move the cutting height lever back to 'very short' position (lever released).
• Cut the hair from the edge of the cut, moving downwards, holding the trimmer upturned and right
angles to the head. Use short strokes (figs. 10 and 11).
• Repeat these operations for the sideburns (fig. 12).
b) Around the ears
• Comb thoroughly the hair around the edge of the ear; take off the removable comb.
