Default I dead-heading a Christmas cactus?

When they get older and a bit past their best it is very easy to take
cuttings in the early summer and produce a nice batch of young plants.
I usually break off a couple of segments and let them dry out for a day
or two and then pot them up with with one segment below the soil and
one above. They root and start growing pretty quickly.
