I know alot of people here cut hair, whether their own or others. I would like people to post pics of their 1st and and recent cut. This should motivate people trying to get into the hair cutting game. Also post pics of the heads you cut

Take different cam angles. But it looks like your pushing the liners down to hard, and it darkened up parts of your skin. Keep practicing and your cuts will be sharper

*Tips*
Make sure your hair is clean of all products.
Use a large guard and go ATG, decrease in size so you can find the right size for you
If cutting wtg give a little pressure.
Comb before cut
Brush during the cut

You have to make 3 layers (not including your skin). Such as light, medium, and dark. From there you blend each layer into each other

 my tip fo cuttin... is get th adjustable clippers thy also come with guards and a set of trimmers/ Linners ( Brands  Oster or Wahl  ) or wat eva fits yo budget  ..... just like brushin use a mirror to a mirror be careful not to touch the adjustable arm u dont want high and low spots.. if you dont hit yo crown right it will look like yo crown is bald but in a few days it will look fine... Trimming takes patience and a steady hand... If u dont make mistakes u aint learning... GOOD LUCK and wit College
