SAME GUARD. TWO DIFFERENT RESULTS. 👀💈
Beginner barbers, here’s something you need to understand.
When you cut WITH the grain, your clippers can push the hair down instead of cutting every strand to the same length.
When you cut AGAINST the grain, you’re lifting the hair into the cutting blades for a more uniform result.
But remember: going against the grain can also leave the haircut shorter.
Understanding that difference is part of mastering your craft.
📌 SAVE this tip.
