5. Layer the Back
1. Keep the ear-to-ear part in place.
2. Continue the rectangular subsection into the back.
3. Section out some of the guide hair from in front of the ear-to-ear parting to use as a guide in the back.
4. Comb up the rectangular subsection into 90° from the top of the head.
5. Cut a backward flowing angle from the guide. The cut rectangular subsection will act as the guide for layering the back.
6. Standing on the side with the guide, continue bringing
up rectangles of hair and cutting to the guide. Notice how the hair that doesn’t reach the guide falls away andbecomes perimeter weight.
7. Always standing on the guide side, layer the rest of the back section.

6. Check the Haircut
Cross checking is the process of combing the hair in the direction opposite to how it was cut in order to find errorsmade while cutting the hair. When you check the hair, you are looking for hair that stands out from the line you are
creating.
Cross check the long layers cut by lifting upward using horizontal subsections.
