The specific steps are as follows:
To buy a high-quality hair clipper, you should be able to buy it in a nearby drugstore or cosmetics store. The price of hairdressing scissors is about 60 to 100 yuan. You'd better choose small scissors with a blade length of 6 to 7 cm, because the shorter the blade, the easier it is for you to operate.
Determine the hairstyle you want to cut. Before starting work, determine what hairstyle you want, which can reduce the probability of making mistakes. You can search the photos of the stars on the internet first to see how their hairstyles are. You can also look through hairdressing magazines, which are available in many pharmacies or bookstores in magazine rack. You can stand in front of the mirror and fiddle with different lengths of hair to see the effect. You can also print a photo of yourself, draw different hairstyles for yourself, and choose the one that suits you best.
Decide whether to cut dry or wet. Most professionals would recommend wet cutting because it can better control and care for hair.
Get ready for a haircut. If you decide to wet-cut, first clean and care your hair, wrap it in a towel to absorb excess water, and then comb it straight. If you decide to dry cut, blow dry the washed hair, comb your hair according to your own habits, and try to comb out your favorite hairstyle. If you straighten your hair at ordinary times, straighten it before you cut it. Don't use any hair care products on your hair before dry cutting, otherwise it will be more difficult to control the cutting effect.
Split your hair. Divide the hair evenly into two sides along the hairline in the middle of the forehead, and then comb the hair on both sides straight. You should try to split your hair evenly. You might as well comb your hair on both sides with a fine tooth comb. Tie your hair around your neck in a low ponytail. You can straighten your hair with a fine tooth comb first and then tie it into a tight ponytail. Comb your hair carefully before you tie your ponytail, and there should be no protrusions on the top of your head. You should tie your ponytail in the middle of the back of your head, and the height is equal to your neck.
Tie the headrope. This headband should be tied where you want to cut your hair, which may be a few centimeters lower than the previous headband. Gently lift the ponytail upward. Of course, the headrope should be tied tightly to the hair. Cut the hair under the second headrope. You can cut it slowly bit by bit. Don't try to cut it all at once. Make sure the ends of your hair are smooth.
Loosen the headrope and shake your hair. Check the hairstyle and trim it further. Comb your hair straight or forward to see if the ends are smooth. Fine-tune according to your own preferences.
If you don't cut it neatly, you can tie it in a low ponytail and trim it. But don't cut it short, just tie a low ponytail, hold it steady in one hand and trim it in the other.
