Detail steps to cut boys hair at home
1. Before start, you should point out the maximum cutting length you want.

3. Divide the head into three cutting zones: a) the lower part of the head (running from the bottom of the hair line to the top of the ear); b) the middle part of the head (running from the top of the ear to the top of the head); and c) the top of the head.
4. You should use the comb guide from the largest to the one meets the requirement. Choose a larger guide comb than the desired maximum cutting length, because it would not remove his hair too much with the larger guide comb. Put it on the trimmer.
5. Start to trim the whole head hair use the proper one (satisfy your maximum length).
6. Then decrease the guide length by one size for the lower and middle zone. Trim Hair from bottom to the top edge.

Increase the distance to the head when the trimmer getting close to the middle zone. It can help the hair length change smoothly and make the hairstyle looks more naturally.
