Point cutting changes an edge by cutting into it with the scissor tips. Depending on how it is used, the result can vary considerably. The name alone does not tell you how much length will be removed or how visibly broken the line will become.
In Japanese and Western barbering conversations, ask which edge will be altered and why. You may want a softer perimeter while keeping a defined overall silhouette. Showing that distinction helps your barber choose an approach. It also avoids treating a technical term as a complete instruction. A precise explanation of the intended shape is more valuable than requesting a named technique without discussing its effect.
