haircutting
Shortening one's mane
Haircutting is the act or practice of cutting hair, whether as a personal task or professional service.
The term emphasizes the activity itself rather than the result: She learned haircutting from her grandmother.
In finance, haircutting refers to reducing the value of assets used as collateral—a metaphorical trim.
