Clipper cut

Step 5 of 15 - Finished back area

< Previous step | Next step >

The nape and occipital areas

Tilt the head into an upright position.

You should start to see the build up in length around the occipital area. It is important to establish at this stage how much length you want to build up around this area as this will determine the length of the rest of your haircut.

Keep checking to make sure your cut is balanced and the weight is evenly distributed.

Don’t clean up the nape area at this stage. You will get a better result if you leave this until you have completed the haircut.
