00:00 Welcome to the Graduation with Line technique.
00:04 This hair shape continues the Graduation series
00:07 and shows how graduations and lines can be combined
00:10 to not only produce a modern shape,
00:13 but also form the basis for many other variations.
00:16 Prior to shampooing, make a thorough assessment
00:27 of hair growth and hairline patterns,
00:29 paying particular attention to the hairline and through the front.
00:33 At this point, make a decision on the hair length.
00:57 Once the hair has been shampooed,
00:59 find the natural parting by combing the hair back
01:02 and pushing slightly forward.
01:04 Now take a vertical section,
01:17 and then two diagonal sections
01:19 that will form a triangle beneath the occipital bone.
01:22 [music]
01:24 Comb the hair straight out
01:46 and cut a line at the desired length and angle.
01:49 The length and angle of the first section
01:52 will be the guide for the rest of the haircut.
01:55 Take a second section parallel to the first,
02:01 comb the hair out and slightly back,
02:03 and cut using the first section as a guide.
02:17 Continue towards the back of the ear.
02:19 [music]
02:23 [music]
02:25 [music]
02:52 Notice how the sections have radiated to become more horizontal.
02:56 Notice also that the hair in the centre and the back of the head
03:00 is lifted slightly higher than the hair behind the ear.
03:03 This creates a gradual change in weight build-up.
03:06 [music]
03:10 [music]
03:36 Once a point just below the crown level is reached,
03:39 the sections extend through into the side.
03:41 Continue using the previously cut hair as a guide.
03:44 [music]
03:48 [music]
03:50 [music]
04:18 Now for the ears by gently pressing the hair as shown.
04:21 Hold the hair in the fingers to continue the graduated line
04:24 through to the front.
04:26 Now continue through to the front hairline.
04:29 [music]
04:32 [music]
04:34 [music]
04:36 Due to the fineness of the hair,
04:51 the next section incorporates the natural parting.
04:54 [music]
04:57 [music]
05:00 [music]
05:02 Now continue using the previous hair as a guide.

05:28 [music]
05:30 [music]
05:43 [music]

05:53 Now continue with the same sectioning and cutting procedure
06:15 for the second side.

15:54 [music]
16:02 [music]
16:04 Dry the hair by using a wrap drying technique which will produce natural root lift.
16:14 [music]
16:29 After the wrap drying stage, control the mid-length and end by turning the hair under.
16:34 The blow dry will be more even if both hands are used for either side.
16:53 [music]
16:55 [music]
17:12 [music]
17:14 Once the blow dry is complete, check the entire shape including the area around the crown.
17:30 Lightly dust off any excess length.

18:02 Check through the outlines with the pointing technique.
18:22 [music]
18:27 [music]
18:29 Cross check the graduation by working from the corners into the centre.
18:39 Then finally check the area around the crown to ensure the balance in this area is correct.
