the ends to “distort.”

at mid section to create movement.
6. Direct front and sides forward. Cut to create an angled shape at jaw.
7. Direct the top forward and slice along the ends.
8. Dry hair at natural fall, and slice along the surface to desired shape and texture.
9. Lift up the top section. Twist sections and chip at mid section.
