Surfaces on the head where the head changes such as the ears jawline and occipital bone are referred to as
Reference points
Reference points and a haircut are used to establish

Parietal ridge
What bone protrudes at the base of the school?
Occipital bone
The blank is the highest point on the top of the head and can be located easily by placing a comb on the top of the head and noticing that the comb is resting on the highest point
Apex

Section

Angles
The three types of straight lines in haircutting include horizontal vertical and blank lines
Diagonal
What type of haircutting lines are parallel to the floor and relative to the horizon?
Horizontal lines
What type of haircutting lines are perpendicular to the Horizon and are used to remove weight to create graduated or layered haircut and higher elevations?
Vertical lines
Blank lines in a haircut are those that live between the horizontal and vertical have a slanting or sloping direction and help to blend long layers into short layers to create fullness
Diagonal
Blank or stacking involves using diagonal lines to create angles by cutting the ends of the hair with a slight increase or decrease in length
Beveling
For control during haircutting the hair is parted into working areas called
Sections
What is the line dividing the hair at the scalp separating one section from another to create subsections
Parting
Blank also known as projection or lifting is the degree in which a subsection of hair is held from the head when cutting
Elevation
Elevation creates graduation and layers and is usually described in blank
Degrees
What is the elevation or degrees contained in a blunt or one length haircut
Zero
When the hair is elevated blank you are building weight in a haircut
Below 90°
What hair type requires less elevation and should be left a bit longer when cutting because of shrinkage as it dries
Curly hair
Blank occurs when the hair contracts or lifts through the action of moisture loss or drying
Shrinkage
The angle at which the fingers are held when cutting the line that creates the shape is referred to as the
Cutting line
A blank also known as a guide as a subsection of hair that determines the length the hair will be cut and is usually the first section cut when creating a shape
Guideline
Which guideline is used in a blunt one length haircut were used in over direction to create a link or wait in Greece
Stationary
Which guideline involves a small slice of previous subsection that is moved to the next position and becomes the new guideline
Traveling guide
What technique should be used to create a length increase in the design of graduated and layered haircuts
Over direction
If you want hair to be longer toward the front on a layered haircut over direct the sections to a stationary guide at the
Back of the ears
A blank is a conversation between you and your client when you find out what the client is looking for offer suggestions and professional advice and come to a joint decision about the most suitable haircut
Client consultation

Profile
If hair shrinks when it dries you will need to cut wet hair blank then the desired length
Don’t know
The blank is the direction in which hair grows from the scalp and is also called the natural falling position
Growth pattern
You should use the blank degree of tension when cutting hair with strong growth patterns or around the ears to compensate for the hair being pushed up when it dries
Minimum
Hair blank is the number of individual hair strands on one square inch 2.5 cm² of scalp and is usually described as thin medium or thick
Density
Hair blank is based on the thickness or diameter of each hair strand usually classified as coarse medium and fine
Texture

It needs weight and is limp
The blank or the amount of movement in the hair strand varies from client to client as well as within the same head of hair
Wave pattern
Blank shears also known as scissors are mainly used to cut blunt or straight lines in hair to slide cut point cut or to implement other texturizing techniques
Haircutting
Which type of shears use mainly to remove bulk from the hair and is often referred to as a thinning shears tapering sheer or notching sheer
Texturizing
Shears that are designed to remove more hair with larger teeth set farther apart are known as

Wide tooth comb
The comb used for close tapers on the nape and sides and when using a scissor over comb technique is a blank
Barber comb
Which three countries are primarily responsible for manufacturing the steel used to make professional shears
Japan and Germany in the United States
The blank indicates the method of gauging The hardness of the metal steel of an individual sheer in order to ensure that it maintains a sharp edge for an extended period of time
Rockwell hardness
What is the ideal Rockwell hardness of a sheer?
56 to 57

N a blank haircut also known as a one length haircut all of the hair comes to a single hanging level forming a Weight line
Blunt

Haircuts that generally have less weight than graduated haircuts are called
Layered cuts
A blank is a basic haircut cut at a 90° elevation and then over directed to maintain length and weight at the perimeter
Long layered cut
The technique used to check a haircut for precision of line and shape is called blank
Crosschecking
Blank should not be used on curly hair because it weakens the cuticle and causes the hair to frizz

It is important to work with the natural blank or where and how hair is moved over the head when locating the bang area
Distribution
Which method involves cutting or layering the hair in such a way that the fingers and shears glide along the edge of the hair to remove length?

The process of removing excess bulk without shortening hair length is called blank
