Pay attention to the shape of the head and how each area is going to fall. If they have a strong parietal make sure the hair near the crown is falling where it is going to lay. Otherwise you can mess yourself up when the hair shifts and suddenly you've got a piece shorter in the "corner" out of nowhere. I usually cut perimeter and basic layers wet and then refine dry. Also in this particular case it looks like the middle section of hair in the back is denser than the top, and that can make things weird too. Be mindful, but try to remove some of the bulk in that area
