Hairmaven, I have tried to see the video on your site but it won't give it to me. I have windows player. How do I get it. My coworkers would really like to view it.

Thanks

The most common reason for this problem is that on one side you are usually cutting 'downhill', but on the other, 'uphill'. Here's what I mean...

A rght-handed cutter cuts the left-hand side of the nape hair sections 'downhill' and follows around to the side sections still cutting toward the front, or 'downhill'. Conversely when they begin to cut the right side of the nape sections they'll usually turn their hand backwards to cut the sections downhill but when they get to the sides of the right side they begin to cut 'uphill' from the front toward the back... this is where the sides begin to differ in length.

A good way to avoid this problem is to cut the front length first by standing in front of the client and snipping the forelock hair to the desired length, then when joining the back to the front you'll have a target to aim for, rather than guessing it from front to back...

Damn good advice Britboy! Vidal sassoon started this years ago and I had some training with Yosh who happened to apprentice with him. He used the same technique.
