Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Does anyone here cut their own hair ??

Just finished cutting mine. I just use scissors. I started cutting my own when Covid broke out. Somewhere I have hair cutting kit but can’t find it. I’m not going to win a beauty contest so what the heck! My neighbor is in his 80s and has always cut his own. Any do it yourselfers out there??

I did once, a buzz cut down to short stubble, a hot summer. Doubt I could do an attractive job. 7 months before I went to a barber, maybe should have been a little sooner.

How drunk were you, is the real question..

I’ve had short hair all my life but after the scamdemic and the bullshit stolen election I decided to go against the norm and I have not cut my hair since 2020. I had a half inch taken off so that my locks stay luxurious but otherwise, to quote a good song, I’m the long haired son of a sinner.

It’s really not that difficult. The back is the hardest but once I find my hair cutting shears, I’ll be fine. They have a lot of good products now for DIY so maybe someone here will be brave enough and chime in.

y'all gonna' wind up lookin' like Ishmael in King Pin... maybe Emmo Phillips...

Was that for me, or the OP? I only had 3 drinks before making the decision, 2 during. I didn't regret it.

I just may shave it again, around the end of April, to see how a year goes. I expect the long front hair will be a real PITA.

Cut my own occaisionally with scissors and electric dog clipper. Shave with the dog clipper too leaves me with what looks like a 5 day growth.my face sun and windburns very easy by leaving 5 days on.the face I endure the wind ,cold and sun much easier.its my hair..mb

I've cut my own for decades. I have the advantage of being ugly anyway, though. ..

I always ask her to make me irresistable to women when asked how I want it cut.

Might as well cut my own, I recon.

Been cutting my own since 2018. Don't see the point in shelling out $20 + tip every 5 weeks.

A Friend does.

Stopped going to a barber in 1985 when Max my barber died of cancer.tried to have a haircut w/ barber that bought his shop, but this guy was slow,and strange.
SOB,asked me if he could stop mid haircut to eat his lunch!
That did it, have not been back to a barber shop since.
Only difference between a good hair cut and a bad one, is two weeks anyhow

Been buzzing my own for about twenty - five years. Not difficult.

No

Only by accident...

When I am messing with saws, other sharp things... or torches.

I've been cutting my own for about 16-17 years now. I just throw a #1 head on the clippers and buzz it about once every 6-8 weeks.

I'm on my second set of clippers, but they're just cheapo Wahls, so it still comes out to almost nothing per cut over the course of several years.

Who cuts their hair at 2300 at night is the real question......

clippers, #1 setting, 10 minutes including cleanup. I hit the eyebrows while I'm at it

Haven't been to a barber in maybe 15 years

that said, I wish I had hair that required a barber.
