Straight Razor Tapering & Edging: A Step-by-Step Guide


Question
Hello i was wondering how to use a straight razor when taper or eding black hair? What is the proper way to hold the razor against the hair line? Well could you just give me the steps you would follow in finshing off a clean cut with a razor edge.

Answer
Hello Chad, my name is Cleao and I can answer your question.  First you hold the blade slightly flat against the skin. NEVER have the blade directly on the skin you will cut someone. Also while your cutting always pull the skin back (the tighter the skin the easier, cleaner, and faster you will cut it is very hard to explain how to hold it correctly so if you want you can leave me your e-mail address and I will send you a link of a guy doing eyebrows hope this helps!
