I've been cutting my own hair for over 20 years now. It's not that hard. The clippers come with different heads so you can have shorter hair on the sides than on the top. I also have a trimmer for the back of my neck which my wife cuts for me. I have it 3/4" on the sides and back and 1" on top. The funny part was that my barber who was about to retire, taught me how to do it. It is very easy and looks good.

You can get everything you need from Amazon for under $50. Now is the perfect time to try it.
