For the best results, wash and rinse the hair before you begin to cut it. While the hair is still wet, comb through it to release tangles and remove loose hair. Textured or tightly coiled hair should be dried and straightened before being point cut. Hold the scissors in your dominant hand and the styling comb in your non-dominant hand. Comb the hair upward away from the head. When there is about 2 inches (5 cm) of hair in the comb, pinch the hair between your forefinger and middle finger.  Start at the crown of the head, then work around the head in a circle. If you hold a section of hair that is longer than 2 inches (5 cm) in your fingers, it will begin to flop over and you can’t point cut it effectively. If there is less than that much, you won’t be creating the desired texture. For a traditional cut, you’d hold the scissors parallel to your fingers. For a point cut, angle the scissors downward, perpendicular to your fingers. For the basic point cut, the scissors should be pointing straight down toward your fingers. The idea behind the point cut is to create texture and remove bulk, rather than removing length. This is why the scissors are held straight up and down. Begin point cutting at the nape of the neck, then work your way up to the sides. From there, move to the crown then the top of the head.
