Controlling Perimeter Length
In this video, Sam teaches you how to use the reversible blender to control perimeter length by making the hair naturally bend under or flip up.
Here’s a great hot tip when you want to control perimeter length to make it go under or make it flip up. Simply working with the reversible blender. Take and place the blunt blade on the bottom and close. That’s going to make the hair naturally bend under. Flipping the reversible blender with the blunt blade on top and opening and closing will make that hair flip up. So remember, wherever the direction of the teeth are pointed, that’s the direction the hair’s going to move. Pointed up, it’s going to flip up, pointed down, it’s going to bend under. There’s a nice hot tip working with the reversible blender.
