Week 46 of 2009 brings us Andis / Ivan Zoot vocabulary word of the week in the world of clipper cutting featuring the letter U.
This weeks word is - Underhand Cutting – A clipper cutting technique in which the clipper is held with the hand positioned under the clipper. This technique is preferred for cutting over the crestline in the interior of a haircut. It is the direct opposite of Overhand cutting. This underhand technique is very important for clipper cutter comfort as well as for accurate short interior layering with a clipper. Any time the hair on the top of the head is too short to hold in your fingers it it time to go with underhand clipper position.
