Consider the shape of your model’s natural growth at the nape, then start by parting the hair using a zigzag pattern. After teasing the first strand, apply Formula A. Continue with zigzag partings, working up the back profile in a brick-lay pattern, leaving out every other section. This will create the desired contrast. Repeat sectioning and application through the entire back profile.
