Swivel Shear Cutting Tips
Sometimes following a shear blade with your body while cutting can make you feel like a contortionist – especially when cutting the bottom hairline, layers on top, fringe and around the ear. You’re twisting and turning to try to line the shears up properly to obtain the right angle to see and cut hair. Think about how nice it would be to improve your precision while keeping your elbow at your side, wrists straight and hands open. It can be done and Sam Villa will show you how.
