After COVID shut everything down, my husband bought a set of Wahl clippers and I started cutting his hair at home. How do I efficiently improve my clipper skills?
I had never cut any kind of hair before COVID. I watched youtube videos and read instructions to get started. The first cut I gave him left a tiny bald spot on the back of his head (Whoops! It grew back quickly and he was very understanding about it) and I've become progressively less error prone and more confident using the clippers since then. The cuts I give him now are what I'd call "acceptable". From a regular look or glance nothing looks really awry, but looking more closely reveals blending issues and questionable treatment of the colic. I also would not say the cuts I give him have any real style to them at all; they are painfully basic. I probably also spend way too much time on his cuts just to get to something barely acceptable. What kind of resources/learning materials/tips can help me get to a level beyond amateur?
