Reversible Blending Shear Over Comb

STEP 1: Take a bit of hair with a comb, teeth facing up.
STEP 2: Hold the Sam Villa Signature Series Reversible Blending Shear with the still blade at the bottom, over the brush.
STEP 3: Slowly move the brush round the shape of the top while opening and shutting the shears quickly.

A fair amount of hair could be removed with none hard lines, just soft texture. “The secret is to transport the brush slowly and the shears quickly – fast scissors, slow comb,” explains Carruthers.

Another trick Carruthers says, is using a comb color that contrasts with hair color for max visibility – use black combs on lighter hair and ivory combs on darker hair. It helps read the extension of the road you’re cutting.

The width of enamel also are important, fine teeth create more tension and are optimal when cutting precision sharp lines, wide teeth create less tension and are good for softer lines.
