lining

Applies to guys as well as ladies. Getting your head lined up just means that they making the edge of your hair not look all scraggly and messed up looking. In some parts, they call it a shape up. A lining is included by default in a haircut, but some folks ask for it separately if they're growing out their hair, got their hair braided, or just have somewhere to be and want to look fresh and clean cut.

Lining out is a term used to describe a person doing or saying something really dumb. Originally derived from the expressions tarding out or botting out, it is used when those terms fail to put enough emphasis on the severity of the stupidity.
