    I have been cutting my own hair for over 17 years, and I love it. What i do is I actually do cut my hair in the bathroom but I stand in the shower and do it, because all the little bits will go down. Now, if their is a lot of hair, then, I will take it out of the way and throw it away. The clippers do a great job though in cutting the hair and chunking it up. To avoid messes and vacuum, I just do it in the shower so everything is done in one place. It is very nice to cut my own hair because I ddon’t have to tell the barber how i want my hair and coming up with the money for it. I can cut it, shave, or leave it alone and I know the clippers will bee their when I am ready to cut it. It is not hard at all to cut your own hair. I tell people it is similar to using a trimmer and electric razor but on a much broader scale.

    I was nervous at first but about 10 minutes in, I felt a lot better about it. Unless It's different with other haircuts, it seemed like messing it up badly would've been hard. I like my hair short so I just used your directions but ended with different guards. Not saying it was a breeze but it was easier than I thought.

    For a straight cut in back at the bottom of your hair line, if you have a strip of flexible foam that comes in rolls, I use a 1 to 2" thick strip about 2" wide x 5" long, and place it across where you want to cut, it helps with an even cut. I have the same Whal clipper set purchased about 8 years ago, with longest attachment is the 1" #8. I've only cut my hair a few times and used scissors on top. This video give me a good idea of how it will look at #8 length. Thanks!

    I normally start at the back of the neck and work my way up, leaving the top at the very end; I'm not always entirely happy with the results. Next time I'll start at the top and gradually go down the back and sides, lowering the guard numbers like you do here and see if I can get a better haircut that way.

      Awesome! It can save you a ton of money, and with a little practice people will barely notice a difference!

    That was a great video...you definitely look better with shorter hair. I cut mine to a #2 or #1 usually...
