Side Part Step by Step Poster

How To Cut a Side Part in 4 Pictures - Barber Education - Classic Gentleman Cut - Boho *DESCRIPTION:* The haircut that looks simple but fails if you section wrong. This poster shows the sectioning everyone skips. No textbook. Just 4 pictures that show your hands where to go. *4 PICTURE STEPS:* *1 / STEP 1 - Section Side Part and Horseshoe* Two sectionings at once. Top view shows "Side Part" arrow + "Horseshoe Section" dotted line. Side view shows where to place comb to find natural part. If students get this step wrong, the whole cut falls flat — this picture prevents that. *2 / STEP 2 - Cut Sides with Scissor Over Comb - low graduation* Shows HAND POSITION — hand holding comb lifting outward, scissor cutting over comb. Arrows show comb moving up, hair being cut over it. Footer says "Comb: lift outward / Scissors: cut over comb" — tells them HOW to hold, not just what to cut. Low graduation keeps weight on sides so it doesn't stick out. *3 / STEP 3 - Establish Top Guide and Cut Forward to Part Line* Top view arrows say "Cut forward" to the part line — not back to crown. This is the secret to a Side Part — weight goes forward to the part, not back. Side view shows scissor angle pointing toward part. *4 / STEP 4 - Blend and Style Side Part - show comb direction* Final blending arrows + styling comb direction. Shows scissor-over-comb blend at parietal, then large comb combing hair toward side part. Final checkmark on front view — finished look. *PRO TIP FOOTER:* Keep comb parallel to scalp for smooth blend • Use low graduation to maintain weight on sides • Always cut dry for precision *WHY THIS ONE IS SPECIAL:* - Teaches TWO sectionings in one cut (side part + horseshoe) - Shows hand position for scissor-over-comb (most posters just show head, not hands) - Comb direction arrows = styling included, not just cutting - Links to your whole collection: Horseshoe (Step 1), Low Graduation (from your fundamentals), Side Part family *PERFECT FOR:* - Week 3-4 barber students — first scissor-over-comb cut - Students whose side parts never "lay" right — usually because they cut back, not forward - ESL / visual learners — pictures show "lift outward" better than words - Wall display with Buzz Cut + Crew Cut — your Classic Trio *COLLECTION:* Verse_Visions Picture-Only Haircut Series #3.
