Tips
-- Start clipping at the highest length setting of the hair clipping comb and reduce the length setting gradually.
-- Write down the length settings you have used to create a certain hairstyle as a reminder for future clipping sessions.
-- To clip in the most effective way, move the appliance against the direction of hair growth.
-- Since hair grows in different directions, you need to move the appliance in different directions as well
(upward, downward or across) (Fig. 7).
-- Make overlapping passes over the head to ensure that the appliance catches all the hairs that need to be cut.
-- Make sure that the flat part of the hair clipping comb is fully in contact with the scalp to obtain an even clipping result.
-- To achieve a good result with curly, sparse or long hair, you can use a styling comb to guide the hair towards the appliance.
-- Regularly remove cut hair from the hair clipping comb. If a lot of hair has accumulated in the comb, remove it from the appliance and blow and/or shake the hair out of it.
