How to Cut
Wet the hair thoroughly and check that the wig is not tilted. The Vertical Gradation Bob is defined by its lift-up technique, which creates a different angle from the basic gradation bob.

The diagram below shows the first step of the lift-up technique that sets this style apart from the basic cut. Understanding the occipital point position and pull-out angle is essential before beginning.
Step 01
Scoop the hair up from below and shape it again from above to cut — the lift-up technique that creates a different angle from the basic cut.

Step 03
Scoop the hair up from below through the third line, raising your hand to the occipital point marked by the red circle.
