4. Select the OP, position it at a 90 degree angle to the head and trim ( average length- 5–8 cm).
5. Take strands from the rest of the hair, apply to the OP and cut to its length.
6. If the curls on the back of the head, temple or bangs do not reach the OP, then align them with the neighboring ones, stretching them parallel to the floor.

The hair on the parietal part of the head is combed perpendicular to the skin. The peculiarity of this haircut is that the better the hair is pulled up, the higher the quality of the haircut. It is easiest to fulfill this condition on straight and coarse hair; the length of the hair in the parietal area should not exceed 5 cm. If the hair in the parietal area is longer than 6 cm, then it should be shortened using the finger method. After shortening, the hair is moistened with water, then with gel.

The hair is placed in a vertical position, holding the comb in the left hand and the brush in the right. The comb is placed at the edge of hair growth on the forehead and combed through the hair from the forehead to the crown. The comb is moved towards the crown by 5...6 cm, and the brush is inserted into the hair. The brush is moved in the same direction as the comb. When the brush begins to move to the back of the head, the comb is removed from the hair and returned to its original position, retreating 2...3 cm from the edge of hair growth on the forehead. All hair in the parietal area of ​​the head is treated in this way. At the border between the temporal and parietal zones, as well as the occipital and parietal zones, the hair is combed by moving the comb and brush upward to the parietal zone. After combing, the hair must be allowed to dry, then proceed with further processing.

The area is performed holding a comb in the left hand and scissors in the right hand. The comb and scissors must be placed in a horizontal position. From the edge of hair growth on the forehead, the comb is inserted into the hair and begins to slowly move towards the back of the head, while the scissors are held over the comb parallel to it. As the comb advances, the hair it captures is cut off, but provided that the hair is in a vertical position.

The work is done smoothly, the scissors and comb simultaneously move towards the back of the head. When cutting the parietal area, you need to look in the mirror more often, where the result of the hairstyle being performed is more clearly visible.

The hair of the temporal and occipital zones is removed using a machine or using the shading method, giving the cut a vertical or oval shape.

1. Wet your hair and comb it thoroughly.
2. Divide the hair into zones through partings in the parietal, temporal, upper occipital and lower occipital zones.
3. Start cutting from the bottom of the back of the head. Straighten the length of your hair and give it a “cape” shape using the zero-pull method. It is best to perform additional processing with thinning scissors or a trimmer.
4. Trim the hair of the upper occipital zone in small steps of 4 cm in length and with a gradually increasing angle of inclination of the strand. The pull is done at 45º. If desired, the step can be smooth and higher.
5. In the same way, design the lower part of the temporal region, forming a single diagonally inclined line with the hair of the upper occipital zone.
6. The lateral parts of the parietal zone are combed to the back of the head and to the temples in the order of lengthening.
7. Go back to the back of the head and duplicate the lower part with a swoosh-shaped hair treatment.
8. Now part the hair in the central parietal area and comb it to the side.
9. Trim the protruding ends to the length of the previously cut strands.
10. Move your hair to the other side and trim it.
11. Blow dry your hair.

Perform thinning. This will give the haircut texture and add volume to the hair.

Sesson

In the 60s, British hairdresser Vidal Sassoon came up with an unusual haircut, giving the hair a strict geometric shape and a round outline. Lush, straight bangs were a must. That's how it turned out new hairstyle, which later became known as Sessun (after the name of the hairdresser). Later variations appeared: sesson or sesson.

Session haircut options

A bob haircut done correctly will not require long-term styling. This can be done using brushing, a skeleton brush and a hair dryer. You just need to slightly lift the strands at the roots and lay your hair with the tips inward. With a layered bob, you can easily create a messy style by applying a fixative and tousling your hair with your fingers. To create a strict style, just apply gel to your hair and comb it back. The bangs can be pulled back or laid to the side.

A short bob suits young beauties and stately ladies, regardless of their appearance. Different options for bangs and elongated front strands skillfully mask all existing flaws. In addition, this model does not require special skills and tools to perform styling.

Sesson hair care is extremely simple. There is no need to sleep on curlers or curl your hair for a long time in the morning with a curling iron. A few steps are enough:

• wash your hair;
• Dry the roots a little with a towel;
• While the curls are still a little damp, use your fingers to style them;
• Now you can continue styling with a hairdryer.
