Alaska Barber Certification Practice Exam

A clipper is typically used for cutting large sections of hair quickly and is not precise enough for outlining or design work. A razor is also not a suitable tool as it can easily cause injury or uneven cuts. While shears may be used for outlining and detail work, trimmers are specifically designed for these tasks and have a smaller and more precise blade. Therefore, a trimmer is the best tool for outlining, arching, and design work.
