If you are cutting natural or textured hair for a “Dark Caesar,” try a ¼-inch (0. 64-centimeter) attachment or blade.

The “grain” of the hair is the direction that the hair is growing in. Your hair may not all grow in the same direction. Comb the hair every couple of strokes to get rid of any tiny cut pieces of hair. Leave a 2–3 inches (5. 1–7. 6 cm) strip of hair at the front of your hairline. This strip will be the bangs.

For a Dark Caesar, sculpt the hairline with the clippers instead. Keep your bangs slightly shorter to enhance a Caesar haircut.

For a more modern take, cut the sides shorter for an undercut or a fade. [9] X Research source

Remember to go with the grain of the hair.

Use a brush or comb for straight or wavy hair, depending on the length. Use a boar bristle brush for natural or textured hair. You can use this on very short hair too.

Remember to brush and dry your hair in the same direction it is growing in.

Remember to comb in the same direction that the hair is growing in.
