INSTRUCTIONS FOR HAIR CUTTING

NOTE: For even cutting, allow the comb attachment/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
comp attachment.

STEP 1 – Nape of the neck – PICTURE 1

Set the comb attachment to 3mm or 6mm.
Hold the clipper with the blade teeth pointing upwards. Begin starting at the centre of the

head at the base of the neck.

Slowly lift the clipper, working upwards and outwards through the hair, trimming just a little

at a time.

STEP 2 – Back of the head – PICTURE 2

With the comb attachment set on 12mm or 18mm, cut the hair at the back of the head.

STEP 3 – Side of the head – PICTURE 3

Set the comb attachment to 3mm or 6mm guide to trim sideburns. Then change the setting to

9mm and continue to cut to the top of the head.

STEP 4 – Top of the head – PICTURE 4

Use the longer length comb attachment and set it to 24mm or 27mm then cut hair on top of

the head against the direction in which the hair normally grows.

For longer hair on top, use the longer length comb attachment (24-42mm) to achieve desired

style.

Always work from the back of the head.

STEP 5 – The finishing touches – PICTURE 5

Use the clipper without an attachment comb for close trimming around the base and sides of

the neck. Use the ear comb guides to get a clean line around each ear. For the required ear
comb guide, angle the clipper and lightly stroke around each ear to the back of the neck.

To produce a clean straight line at the sideburns, reverse the hair clipper. Place the reversed

clipper at right angles to the head, tips of the blades lightly touching the skin and then work
downwards.

SHORT TAPERED STYLES – “FLAT TOPS” & SHORT CUTS

Starting with the longest comb attached (24mm-42mm ), cut from the back of the neck to the

crown. Hold the guide comb flat against the head and slowly move the clipper through the
hair, as shown. (PICTURE 1)

Use the same procedure from the lower side to the upper side of the head, as illustrated.

Then cut the hair against the direction in which it grows and level with the sides. (PICTURE 3)

To give a “flat top” look, the hair on top of the head must be cut over the top of a flat comb.
Use a closer guide comb to taper the hair down to the neckline as desired.
