Rowenta Logic TN1010, Instructions For Use Manual

• Hold the trimmer on the edge, but only use a corner of the trimmer, following slowly the requi-
red contour and following the direction of the cut (fig. 14).

Tips :

• When using the hair trimmer without a removable comb, make sure that you use controlled, light
movements.
• For the finishing strokes, ensure that the hair trimmer remains at right angles to the skin, in order
to avoid injury (fig. 15 and 16).

10. FOR A SUCCESSFUL AMERICAN-STYLE CUT

A very short cut on the sides and the nape, and very short on the top (fig. 16).

• Combs necessary for this cut : n°1, 3, 4 (fig. 17).

• Do not forget to change combs as you progress through the hair.

1st STAGE : THE CUT

• To cut the hair on the sides and the nape, see the "Round Crew cut" chapter. At the end, use n° 1
comb to obtain a shaven cut.
• For the top, at the locations indicated by the zone change lines (see fig. 17), use comb
n° 3 or 4, in order to keep the length longer. Cut the hair from front to back.

2nd STAGE : CONTOURS AND FINISH

• Consult the "Contours and finish" paragraph in the " Round Crew cut" section.

11. FOR A SUCCESSFUL COMB OR FINGER CUT (square crew cut) 

This cut provides a flat surface on the top of the head (fig. 18).

• Combs necessary for this cut : n° 1, 4 + fingers (fig. 19).

• Do not forget to change combs as you progress through the hair.

1st STAGE : THE CUT

• To obtain a successful square crew cut, preliminary drying is the most important factor (fig. 20).
• Dry the hair against the lie in order to raise the crew cut.
• Begin the cut on the sides and the nape, using the combs specified in fig. 19 (for the cut procedure,
consult the chapter entitled "Round crew cut").
• To obtain a flat top, use the normal comb or, failing that, your fingers (fig. 21 and 22).
- take off the removable comb from the hair trimmer,
- using the styling comb (or your fingers), raise a small strand of hair (the hair must be in a vertical
position in relation to the skull),
- move the comb or your fingers along the strand until you obtain the required length,
- use the hair trimmer to cut the hair sticking out of the comb or your fingers, using the latter as a sup-
port, 
- the height of the last strand cut is used as a guide for the subsequent strands,
- continue in this way, strand by strand, moving gradually from the back to the top of the skull, and
then to the front.
- comb the hair regularly to remove the cut hair and check the condition of the cut,
- to obtain a perfect transitional area (A on fig. 19), between the top and side hair, slightly tilt the flat
comb and cut the excess hair (fig. 23).

2nd STAGE : CONTOURS AND FINISH

• See the paragraph entitled "Contours and finish" in the "Round Crew cut" section.

12. FOR A SUCCESSFUL TRIM 

To ensure a consistent and Professional result when cutting the excess hair (fig. 24).
For this cut, 

work without a removable comb

.

a) Around the ears (fig. 25 and 26)

• Comb the hair in the required style.
• Place the upturned hair trimmer between the sideburns and the ear and make sure that the blade
angle is placed at the roots of the hair (only use the tip of the hair trimmer).
• Move the trimmer slowly above, around and behind the ears.

b) Nape (fig. 27)
