I just cut my own hair

[MissMillie]

It was driving me crazy. Besides not really having a trusted hairdresser, and staying in due to Covid, I didn't have money for a hair cut.

I'm sure it's not perfect, but my hair is curly (at least when it's above my shoulders) so hopefully the curls will hide the mistakes.

1. Congratulations! You'll get better at cutting it each time!

You’re staying safe and saving money!

2. Good on you!

I have my ragamuffin husband do mine, and he's surprisingly good.

3. Did mine a few days ago

My hair is curly, too. I stumbled upon a youtube video that suggested I section it and then use a flatiron on each section before cutting. I'm quite pleased with the result. I can't blame covid for not having a trusted stylist. No one has ever cut it to my satisfaction.

8. My hair used to be curly.

I'd always cut it myself. Now that it's straightened out some, it's alot of work.

5. Same!

No official cut since COVID - March 2020.

I had my mid-back length straight hair in braids and, yep - just snipped those little tails off an inch or so! Seemed to work, for awhile!!

7. A picture is sorely lacking here!

10. Yeah, not yet

I cut length, but there's no layers, and I'm not too happy about how it came out.

Good thing I never go anywhere.

It needs some layers.

9. Curly helps. I've cut my own hair most of my life and have started to again.

11. I've cut my own hair for decades

I have straight hair and wear it long. I’ve learned how to cut a blunt end which is good. I’ve saved a lot of money and heartbreak over the years. The handful of times I had it cut were not good.

12. Been cutting my own hair for over a year now.

But I’m a guy with straight hair who wears it in a pretty tight buzzcut, so it’s more like mowing the lawn, but still…
