What makes a great line up
A line-up is edge work only: the hairline across the forehead, the temples, the sideburns and the neckline, squared with a trimmer and finished with a razor.
The skill is restraint. A barber who pushes the line back a few millimetres every visit will walk your hairline up your head over a year. A good line-up follows the hair you have.
It is the cheapest way to make week three of a haircut look like week one.
What to ask for
- Ask the barber to follow your natural hairline rather than raise it.
- Say if you want the corners softened rather than squared.
- Add a neckline clean-up in the same visit.
Weekly or fortnightly between full haircuts.
