Men's haircuts can be done in various ways, but the most popular methods are using clippers and scissors. Clippers can be used to achieve a short buzz cut or a fade, while scissors can be used to create a layered or textured look. This article will guide you on how to do a men's haircut with clippers and scissors.
How to
The first step to doing a men's haircut with clippers and scissors is to choose the right tools. You will need a pair of scissors, clippers, and guards of various sizes. It is also important to have a comb, a spray bottle of water, and a mirror.
Step by step
1. Start by washing and drying the hair. Comb it out to remove any tangles.
2. Decide on the length and style of the haircut.
3. Use the clippers with the appropriate guard to trim the sides and back of the head. Start with a longer guard and work your way down to shorter guards until you achieve the desired length.
4. Use scissors to trim the top of the hair. Start by combing the hair straight up, and then trim the ends with the scissors. Make sure to only cut a little at a time, so you don't take off too much.
5. Blend the top and sides of the hair using scissors and clippers without a guard.
6. Use the comb to check for any uneven spots.

8. Style the hair as desired.
