[. . . ] - The large clipping comb cuts the hair to a length between 23mm, and 42mm in steps of 1mm. 2 To set the comb to the desired hair length setting, turn the hair length adjustment ring to the left or to the right (Fig. , The display shows the selected hair length. Tips We advise you to start clipping at the highest setting of the large clipping comb and to reduce the hair length in small steps until you reach the desired hair length. If a lot of hair has accumulated in the comb, remove the comb and blow and/or shake the hair out of it. Removing the comb does not change the set hair length setting. Write down the hair length settings you have used to create a certain hairstyle as a reminder for future clipping sessions. If you use the small or large clipping comb instead of the thinning comb, all the hair will be clipped at the same length. The thinning comb cuts hair to a length between 3mm and 22mm in steps of 1mm. With the thinning comb, you can give your haircut a natural look and it allows you to create a smooth transition between two different hair lengths. The thinning comb cuts only half of the hair that enters the comb, which results in a natural look (Fig. Thinning an entire haircut We advise you not to use the thinning comb for very short haircuts. 2 Set the thinning comb to a lower setting than the one you just used for the small or large clipping comb to create the haircut. How much lower the setting for the thinning comb should be depends on your hairstyle and hair length. However, never use the thinning comb at a setting that is lower than half the setting you used to create the haircut. For example, if you used the large clipping comb at 30mm to create the haircut, do not use the thinning comb at a setting lower than 15mm. Make sure the thinning comb only touches each spot once, otherwise it cuts all the hair to the set hair length. Creating a smooth transition between two hair lengths If you have cut your hair to two different lengths, you can use the thinning comb to create a smooth transition between these two lengths. 2 Set the thinning comb to a hair length setting that is halfway between the two hair length settings you used to create the haircut. For instance, if you have cut top part of the haircut to a length of 20mm and the bottom part of the haircut to a length of 10mm, set the thinning comb to 15mm. 3 Move the thinning comb upwards through the transition between the two lengths (Fig. Make sure the thinning comb only touches each spot once, otherwise it cuts all the hair to the set hair length.
