The kit: A comb George loves a Headjogc2 Barber Comb, £1.85 (http://bit.ly/1sZqHQA) Haircutting scissors George gets his from Joewell (http://bit.ly/1v2ZSQb) A round ceramic brush George says "it's all about the ceramic!" From £15 (http://bit.ly/1rlJFmA) A strong hairdryer George uses a powerful Parlux 3000, £72.89 (http://bit.ly/1mZbrXG) A great product Redken Powder Grip, £1045 (http://bit.ly/1uJ8d9g), to "stop grown-out fringes looking greasy". The steps: 1. Start by dampening clean hair 2. Divide hair wherever your natural parting falls 3. Create a small V-shaped section of hair at your parting and comb forward 4. Cut an upside-down V into your hair at your nose height. NB: Point-cut into the hair, not straight across 5. Then, pull another section of hair forward, 1cm back from the last one. Again, cut into a V-shape 6. Keep taking the V shape 1cm back at a time until you reach the crown 7. The V shape will get bigger and deeper each time 8. Snip into ends of hair with scissors - this creates a soft, rather than hard, line 9. Using a round brush and a strong hairdryer, curl your new gringe under 10. Repeat this all the way back to the crown Credits: Film by Ben Vine Make-up: Louisa Durrant Location: The Josh Wood Atelier www.joshwoodcolour.com Compiled and directed by Susannah Taylor
