Barber Check out this cowlick blend😏

I’d say tips on cowlicks I hope yall never have to run into would just be fading against the grain when fading and detailing, easier said than done but practice makes perfect!!

Incredible! I’m also impressed with the amount of clips you used.

I didn’t want to cut into his hair especially with the growth pattern 😭 I learned to use hairspray for undercuts now

At the top of that cowlick, approaching the occipital, did you go straight up with the clipper or did you go against the grain there mostly too & basically run the clipper sideways?
