    Don't try this on long hair yourself (back lenght) It's hard to control, call someone to help you

    I'm not sure if that's how the cut in reality or it's my fault but you risk to get the two section in front of you shorter than the sections behind you, ending up with a bad looking hair that you can't use a hairstick on it and you can't do hair braid with it
