BOB STYLE
1.Thinning (entire head)
(1) Comb hair to desired style.
(2) Lightly move the clipper from top to bottom as if combing the hair. (Fig.29.18)
By keeping one hand underneath the hair while cutting with the clipper, there is little chance of cut
hair getting in the face.
Do not thin hair near top of head since short hair will stand up.
If person has a lot of hair, take up a portion of hair in hand and thin hair beneath hand. (Fig.30)
2.Side cutting (evening up the sides)
Put the cutter at right angles to the skin to trim the hair. (Fig.31.24)
3.Shaving downy hair
Put the cutter directly on the skin and shave the downy hair working from the lower to the upper part
of the neck. (Fig.32.26)
Do not press the cutter too hard.

CREW CUT
1.Close cropping
Clipping the entire part
(1) Mount the cropped hair attachment of proper size of for the desired cutting length.
(2) While putting the comb of the cropped hair attachment in contact with the head skin, slowly crop
the hair from the hairline toward the crown against the growing direction of the hair. (Fig.37.20)
The knack for quick and clean cropping is to crop the once cropped part over again. (Fig.38)
(3) Finish by cropping the entire part in crossed manner as shown to make sure that no part is left
uncropped. (Fig.39)
(4) Clip the lower part of the back.
Mount the cropped hair attachment one size smaller than the cropped hair attachment used for
close cropping.
9mm for side trimming against 12mm for close cropping. 6mm against 9mm, 3mm against 6mm.
Clip the lower part of the back by gradually moving the clippers away from the head skin. (Fig.40.26)
2.Cutting around ears

(2) Put the cutter lightly against the skin and move it in a circle in the arrow. (Fig.41.22)
Hold the ear by hand to facilitate the job.

Put the cutter at right angle to the skin to trim the hair. (Fig.42.24)
