Step-By-Step:

Step 1: Cut perimeter and establish the shape by creating a straight line on the back of the hair.

Step 2: Cut the sides using a back diagonal line.

Step 3: Using the French technique, establish the shape on the perimeter and follow by cutting the layers on the interior from the top to bottom.

Step 4: Following the shape of the head, cut using vertical sections.

Step 5: Establish length at the top hair by cutting in a straight line on the center of the head.

Step 6: Using the previous step as a guide, cut the rest of the hair using a curved angle that is eight to ten fingers length from the top.

Step 7: Continue by using a gradual angle and cutting around the head to connect the top to the perimeter length.

Step 8: On selected strands, use a horizontal part on the sides to perform a texturizing technique that is about 2/3 inches from the scalp.

Step 9: Use a mixture of 18.21 Man Made Sweet Tobacco Paste and Wax to add volume and texture, then apply water to help distribute the product from roots to ends.

Step 10: Let it dry naturally or use a diffuser to decrease frizz.

Step 11: Finish with 18.21 Man Made Sweet Tobacco Hair Spray for support and hold.
