A barber may use a comb to demonstrate the plane of an upper side before cutting. The angle of that plane affects whether the finished silhouette looks vertical, rounded or sloped inward. Seeing it can make a discussion of width more concrete.
Ask your barber to indicate the area you are discussing rather than imagining the entire haircut from one measurement. You can explain whether the proposed side looks too narrow or whether the corner should remain stronger. At a Japanese barber consultation in Sydney CBD, this small demonstration can help align expectations. It turns a vague request for a more structured shape into a visible relationship between the top and side.
