    Take a radial parting from ear to ear across the crown. Comb and elevate the hair 90 degrees to the round of the head. Point cut square to the headshape to remove weight. Continue towards the nape using the same technique, increasing the length to maintain softness through the perimeter.

    Continue in pivoting sections toward the ear. Overdirect each section slightly back and up away from the hairline. This will maintain weight through the length within the perimeter.
