distribution
this distribution describes where the hair falls naturally due to gravity
what is natural fall
this elevation creates the maximum amount of weight
what is 0 degrees in the comb
center of the forehead to center of the nape
profile
a straight line
square
using the tips of shears to create texture
point cutting
this distribution describes anything other than natural fall
what is over-directed
true or false: elevation describes how you comb the hair up or down
true
this section sits parallel to the horizon and builds weight
horizontal
a curved line with no corners
round
using the open blades to give direction... you also do this with bread
slicing
this distribution is 90 degrees on base
what is perpendicular
this elevation creates graduation
45 degrees
this section pushes hair away from the face
diagonal back
an increase in length from one reference point to another
short to long
using this tool creates a shattered edge
a razor
what is the definition of distribution
how the hair is combed in relation to the parting or section
this elevation is perpendicular to the head and creates maximum weight removal
90 degrees
rotating from a common point.. also known as pie sections
pivoting
a decrease in length from long to short
decrease in length
slowly closing the to visually blend short to long
slide cutting
true or false: distribution describes how you comb the hair up and down
false
use this elevation to slightly soften your lines
1 fingers depth
recession to recession ... high mid or low
horseshoe
a variable line connecting 2 reference points
visual
this technique similar to another personalizing technique but involves using the entire shear instead of just the tips of the blade
deep parallel point cut
