Hi, my name is Joe Ann Ganci, and I've been a barber since 1980. And I'm going to demonstrate how to clip ear hairs. You use the very smallest clipper you have, and then just kind of pull the ear down and go right around the edge. And some guys have more than he has, but you just kind of get around there and clean up in there and try to get as much as you can. You can't go down too far because you don't want to get into the eardrum, but you want to get it clean as possible so you kind of wrap this small clipper right around the edge there of the ear. And all up around here and up around the top, inside here, wherever you see it. You check all over and just try to make it as clean as possible. And a couple of things to remember, the skin is very sensitive around the ears especially on an older person. So you want to be very careful that you use a small clipper and it doesn't catch the skin. So you want to just go really lightly around and inside the ear, not too deep, and then just clean up all around, on top, inside and around the back.
