The back of a haircut does not have to descend through a perfectly horizontal band of weight. A diagonal relationship between the side and rear can create a different outline, especially in an intentionally asymmetrical design. The direction should be clear before lengths are changed.
Ask your barber to show where the longer side of that panel will sit and how it connects across the centre. If you prefer the back to look even instead, say so explicitly. A rear photograph with the head level is a useful reference. At a Japanese barber consultation in Sydney CBD, discussing the panel's direction helps distinguish a deliberate shape from an uneven-looking finish you would not want.
