seven basic sculpting procedures

1. section 2. position head 3. part 4. distribute 5. project 6. position fingers/shears 7. sculpt design line

upright, forward or tilted, directly influences the fall of the hair, which affects the texture and the direction of the sculpted line

the direction the hair is combed in relation to its base parting

four types of distribution

natural, perpendicular, shifted, and directional.

the direction the hair assumes as it falls naturally from the head due to gravity

perpendicular distribution

the hair is combed at a 90 degree or right angle from its base parting. used for primarily graduated and layered forms

hair is combed out of natural distribution in any direction except perpendicular to its base parting.

directional distribution

hair is distributed in a vertical, horizontal, or diagonal direction.

also known as elevation, is the angle which the hair is held in relation to the curve of the head prior to and while sculpting.

technique in which slightly closed shears slide along the strand to produce rapid length increase

refereed to as efiliating, a technique in which the shears are opened and closed rhythmically while moving upward from the ends

technique in which slightly closed shears slide along the strand to produce a rapid length increase.

technique is performed by rotating the razor and the comb in a light circular motion to reduce bulk and blend the form. hair should also be damp when performing this.

used to reduce weight or remove length. hair is carved into with a razor using back and forth motion.

moveable guide that consists of a small amount of previously sculpted hair which is used as a length guide subsequent partings.

stationary design line

constant, stable guide to which all lengths are directed

artistic pattern or length used while sculpting and can be stationary or mobile.

referred to as tapering or thinning, involved sculpting short lengths within the form.

performed by gliding the open shears along the surface of the hair to achieve mobility.

Term	Definition
seven basic sculpting procedures	1. section 2. position head 3. part 4. distribute 5. project 6. position fingers/shears 7. sculpt design line
head position	upright, forward or tilted, directly influences the fall of the hair, which affects the texture and the direction of the sculpted line
distribution	the direction the hair is combed in relation to its base parting
four types of distribution	natural, perpendicular, shifted, and directional.
natural distribution	the direction the hair assumes as it falls naturally from the head due to gravity
perpendicular distribution	the hair is combed at a 90 degree or right angle from its base parting. used for primarily graduated and layered forms
shifted distribution	hair is combed out of natural distribution in any direction except perpendicular to its base parting.
directional distribution	hair is distributed in a vertical, horizontal, or diagonal direction.
projection	also known as elevation, is the angle which the hair is held in relation to the curve of the head prior to and while sculpting.
slide cutting	technique in which slightly closed shears slide along the strand to produce rapid length increase
slithering	refereed to as efiliating, a technique in which the shears are opened and closed rhythmically while moving upward from the ends
slithering removes	bulk and creates mobility
slide cutting	technique in which slightly closed shears slide along the strand to produce a rapid length increase.
razor rotation	technique is performed by rotating the razor and the comb in a light circular motion to reduce bulk and blend the form. hair should also be damp when performing this.
razor etching	used to reduce weight or remove length. hair is carved into with a razor using back and forth motion.
mobile design line	moveable guide that consists of a small amount of previously sculpted hair which is used as a length guide subsequent partings.
stationary design line	constant, stable guide to which all lengths are directed
design line	artistic pattern or length used while sculpting and can be stationary or mobile.
texturizing	referred to as tapering or thinning, involved sculpting short lengths within the form.
slicing	performed by gliding the open shears along the surface of the hair to achieve mobility.
