How to Cut Hair - Buzzer/Clipper Method

Step 3Start Buzzing at the Top

Start Buzzing at the Top
Start the buzz by selecting a blade guard size. The number 7 guard is usually the longest, and even that isn't that long - maybe 1" or so. I usually choose about a 6 on the top and a 5 or 4 on the sides. Anything less then a 4 shows the skin underneath, and that's not really an effect I like to do unless it's really hot and I am trying to cool off.

Turn on the buzzer and slowly move from the front of the persons' head to the back. Be careful not to move to quickly as you'll catch their hair in the buzzer and give them a nasty tug.

Make consecutive passes from one side of their head to the other until you've got the whole top cut nice and short.
