hey guys it's Thomas from the Barber Style directory and welcome back to
another video now this video is gonna be centered
around one of the most essential parts of a haircut and that's the lineup or
edge up whatever you want to call it this video is gonna be very short and
straight to the point I'm basically just gonna go over my method of how I do a
lineup now there are several ways to line up you can start from the front or
the sides but I'm gonna show you my personal method there also be a blog

you straight to our website don't forget to subscribe
we're doing a 50k subscribers giveaway so be on the lookout for that
and without further ado let's get into the video all right so basically what
I'm gonna do is I'm gonna taper down the front area so it's hair will lay down now
you can do this I don't start a line up across the front what I do is I start on
the side so I make this line and did I make the curve match it on the other
side and then I just connect it in the front it makes it easier for it for me that
way guys I won't be doing a lot of talking in this video since the video
it's self-explanatory but I'll just chime in on certain parts that I feel
that I could give you guys some feedback and some tips
and I've said this in several videos before my
trimmers are set for all-around purpose so my trimmers they're not super sharp
but they can they can do a shave they can do outlines whatever you need to do
that all purpose I can line a little kids with these if I want to I don't set
my blades too close but they're still sharp enough
for me to get that the line that I need to and his hairline has a tendency to
curl look so what I'm doing is just basically tapering this line up just a
little bit trying to keep those baby hairs so to speak and as always this is
the holding spray that I use now this is number three like if you look on the
can this is number three it's medium hold here just blow dry here
all right so what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna start from the center and make my
way either right or left it doesn't really matter and I'm not gonna go way
up here I'm gonna keep it natural and go straight across
the slimline probably this is pretty much my touch-up thinner I don't
really use this for the majority of the hairline just because of the power
issues but it's really good for finishing up
now a lot of people ask me why I do this and it's something that you can't really
explain until you try it yourself whenever you recline somebody back you
really get to see if the hairline is straight or not it kind of gives you
another perspective aside from the mirror you can always use the mirror but
I found that this is a really helpful tool for me to recline them back and
line them like this you guys to try to let me know what you think in the
comments
