    I normally cut mine prior to scarification. No reason not to cut it again. Assume you are wanting to pick up loose materials  from the process?

    Is it best to scarify the lawn before aerating it?

    To be honest l don't think it really matters which order you do it   :)

    I would leave aerating it until last or you would be walking all over it and compacting it again.

    I do what @Pauline 7 does for the same reason. 👍
