Work some serum into the ends as a dry cutting tool. (Have client stand) - use a razor and start cutting the length in a horizontal manner, working from the center out to the edges.
Start from the client’s bangs and blend down to extensions length with the razor.
Repeat on the other side.
Use the razor vertically and slice out pieces of the extensions to blend with the client’s own hair.
Finished look once cut it complete.
Use the InStyler or a curling iron to blend the ends.
Do the same on the fringe and finish with a light hold finishing spray.
