• 

  
  1

  Products Used:

  Use Catwalk Fashionista Smooth & Shine as a cutting lotion.

  A radial parting is taken from ear-to-ear (to split the head evenly from front to back). A curved diagonal back section is taken from each side of the radial to isolate the back side panels.

• 

  
  3

  In front of the radial, slightly curved sections are taken to the high recession on both sides.

• 

  
  4

  A horizontal division is taken through the occipital area and the top isolated. A horizontal section is taken and combed to a 90-degrees point – cut square. The remaining hair is brought up to the stationary guide and point cut.

• 

  
  5

  The back side panels are combed to the top of the section and block cut square.

• 

  
  6

  A profile section is taken from the crown, combed to 90-degrees and cut round to the head, disconnecting from all sections.  The remaining hair is over-directed to the center and the technique is repeated on both sides.

• 

  
  7

  Pivoting sections are used in the front.  The hair is combed to 90-degrees, over directed and cut long to short in the interior.

• 

  
  8

  The technique is repeated on the opposite side.

• 

  
  9

  The top is now divided centrally. The hair is combed away from the center parting, held at graduation level and point-cut from short to long towards the fringe.

• 

  
  10

  Deep parallel point-cutting is used through the longer disconnection to blend lengths.

• 

  
  11

  Surface-cutting is used to break through the top disconnection.

• 

  
  12

  The focal points of the cut are accentuated with TIGI Colour.  The overall look draws inspiration from the 70s, with a unique edge.
