PECKING
is one of the Flyingshears® techniques for One-length, Graduation and Layering. It uses mainly the tip of the scissors to cut hair. Movement is similar to a Woodpecker pecking a hole with its beak. Although each pecking cuts only a small portion of hair, the styling can be done quickly and evenly with the multiple tips of the scissors.

PARING
is another Flyingshears® cutting technique particularly for thinning, texturizing as well as layering. It uses the body part of the scissors to cut hair. The movement is similar to a Japanese warrior brandishing a sword, using the force of waist to drive the arm and wrist to move for achieving an ideal styling.

SHEAR TALENT by Bernice Young - 4/3/02 SanFrancisco weekly
On a recent Monday night, Bruce was attempting to take his hairstyling technique to new heights: the Guinness world record for cutting hair with the most pairs of scissors at once (eight). First, he blow-dried and styled her hair. “This is very exciting,” whispered his assistant, Vicky. “Because cutting hair dry, he can see, right away, the shape. ”Next, Choy selected his specialty scissors -- eight pairs welded together. He snipped away, rotating his wrist to cut from different angles. In what appeared to the untrained eye to be a random fashion, Choy chopped and sheared, squatting, then standing and leaning in, his head tilted. At calculated moments, Choy tousled sections of hair and cut from the ends -- what he dubs the “Flying Shears” effect. The session looked like some kind of avant-garde performance art. Occasionally he stepped back, like a sculptor, to assess his work, or to mop sweat from his brow with a towel...

SOS CUTTING
Using Scissors Over Scalp (SOS) technique, rather than Scissors Over Comb, you can achieve a more natural and softline, not a post-clippered type of look.
1. Rest shears over palm or scalp when cutting.
2. Hold scissors straight pointing towards scalp, then open and close the blades to cut.
3. Move a single scissors blade close to scalp, cut or trim hair according to head shape.
*In all methods, open blades by holding the thumb still while moving the ring fingers.
