13 - FOR A SUCCESSFUL ROUND CREW CUT
BASIC METHOD.
• Slowly raise the hair trimmer towards the top and outside of the hair, cutting only a small
amount of hair at a time (fig. 23).
• Once the hair at the nape has been evenly cut using comb 20 mm, 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. 21).
• For the top, use the same technique, cutting the hair from the forehead to the crown, against
the "lie of the hair" (fig. 24). Then, level off to match the sides.
2nd STAGE : CONTOURS AND FINISH
a) Nape and sideburns
• Comb the hair.
• Turn the cutting wheel to position 1 (very short).
• 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. 25 and 26).
• Repeat these operations for the sideburns (fig. 27).
b) Around the ears
• Comb thoroughly the hair around the edge of the ear; take off the removable comb.
• Hold the trimmer on the edge, but only use a corner of the trimmer, following slowly
the required contour and following the direction of the cut (fig. 28).
Tips :
• When using the hair trimmer without a removable comb, make sure that you use control-
led, light movements.
• For the finishing strokes, ensure that the hair trimmer remains at right angles to
the skin, in order to avoid injury (fig. 29 and 30).

With this method, the cut follows the shape of the skull.
• Combs necessary for this cut : 3-6-9-12-20 mm according
to the required length (fig.21).
• 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
20 mm.
• Hold the trimmer firmly against the hair, with the comb's teeth
pointing slightly upwards (fig. 22).
