One way in which razor cutting differs from cutting with shears is that:

• the guide is above the fingers

• the guide is below the fingers

• only horizontal lines can be cut

• diagonal lines cannot be cut

The moveable blade of the shear is controlled by the:

• still blade

• finger tang/rest

• thumb grip

• finger grip

One difference between cast and forged shears is that cast shears are:

• easier to repair

• less expensive

• more expensive

• more durable

How often should your shears be sharpened?

To cut hair with the razor, it should be held at what angle?

• 180-degree angle
• 45-degree angle

• 90-degree angle

To thin/texturize hair with the razor, it should be held:

• Flat against the strand

When using the razor, the hair should always be cut:

• dry

• wet

• against the direction of hair growth
• straight across
