Step-by-Step Guide
Follow these steps to get the perfect cut for your long hair.
Sectioning the Hair
Begin by sectioning the hair into four parts: the front, back, left side and right side. Start by parting the hair in the middle of the forehead and continue down the back of the head. Then, part the hair from the top of the ear on each side. Secure each section with clips or a headband.
Cutting the Sides
Use a clipper guard to trim the sides. Start at the top of the ear and move downwards towards the neckline. Make sure to keep the clipper guard at a 90 degree angle to the scalp. Do this on both sides to ensure symmetry.
Blending the Top
To blend the top, use scissors to cut the hair starting at the center part. Cut upwards in small sections, using your fingers as a guide. Continue cutting until the length of the hair is even throughout the top.
Texturizing
Once you have achieved the desired length and shape, add texture to the hair. Use a razor or texturizing shears to create a layered look. This will give the hair more volume and movement.
Conclusion
Cutting long men’s hair can be a challenge, but with patience and practice you can create a stylish, precise look. Invest in quality tools such as clippers, scissors and razors to ensure accuracy and consistency. By following these steps, you can achieve the perfect cut for your long hair.
