| What is the basic purpose of a Vertical Line? | to remove weight, used in a graduated or layered cut |
| What is the basic purpose of a Diagonal Line? | to create fullness and blend layers |
| What is Elevation? | The angle or degree at which a subsection of hair is held from head when cutting. |

| What are the four ways to describe cutting line? | Horizontal, Vertical, diagonal, by using degrees |
| What is a guideline? | Section of hair that determines length |
| What are the two locations we can have guidelines? | Perimeter or interior |
| Describe a Stationary Guideline. (one of two guidelines)* | all sections recombed to stationary guideline (it does not move) |
| Describe a Travelling Guideline. (one of two guidelines)* | moves as the haircut progresses |
| What is over-direction compared to elevation? | Hair is combed away from its natural falling position, instead of out from the head (elevation) |
| What type of guideline is used in over-direction? | Stationary Guideline |
| What are the 10 haircutting tools? | Haircutting shears Texturizing shears Razor Clippers Trimmers Sectioning clip wide tooth comb tail comb barber comb styling or cutting comb |
| Hair cutting shears? | cut blunt straight lines |
| Texturizing Shears? | remove bulk from the hair |

| Below the fingers? | used when cutting blunt (no elevation) or heavier graduations (low elevation) |
| Palm-To-Palm? | best way to maintain control when elevating or overdirecting |
| Describe the look of a blunt cut. Know the elevation used. | A blunt cut is one length all around with no elevation or overdirection. 0 degrees |
| Describe the look of a graduated cut. Know the elevation used. | A graduated cut has a graduated/wedge shape with a visual build up of weight and the ends appear stacked. low or medium elevation (45 degrees) |
| Describe the look of a Uniform layered cut. Know the elevation used. | A unifrom layered cut has a soft rounded shape with no visual build up of weight. ALL hair is elevated 90 degrees, straight out from the head. |
| Describe the look of a Long layered cut. Know the elevation used. | A long layered cut has shorter layers at the top increasing longer layers towards the perimeter with a stationary guideline at the apex. all hair is elevation to 180 degrees. |
| What are important considerations to discuss with a client during a haircutting consultation? | What they want, face shape, lifestyle, hair density, textue , wave patters. |
