For a low elevation or 0 degree cut, how should the hair be sectioned?

For a low elevation or 0 degree cut, sectioning the hair into four sections is ideal because it provides a balanced and manageable way to work through the hair. This method allows the stylist to maintain control during the cutting process and ensures an even distribution of weight throughout the hairstyle.

When hair is sectioned into four parts, the stylist can clearly see and access each section, making it easier to achieve the precision required for a low elevation cut. This not only aids in the accuracy of the cutting angle but also helps in managing the hair effectively, especially for clients with thick or long hair.

In contrast, fewer sections might make it challenging to distribute the hair evenly, potentially leading to an uneven cut. More sections could complicate the process unnecessarily, especially when working at a low elevation, where precision and control are paramount to avoiding layering that is not desired in a 0 degree cut. Hence, sectioning into four parts balances accessibility with control for optimal cutting results.
