Here is a video that explains the way I was shown to do it. When fishing 3/16 and 1/4 oz that have the 12 strand fiber guard I actually cut two of the strands off right at the lead. That allows it to “bend” a little easier. The smaller heads like I use for bobber fishing only have 9 strands so all I do on them is trim them like in the video.
