Question Does anyone else cut their own hair?

I've been cutting mine myself for a couple of years now, it feels quite liberating and even though a haircut is cheap here, it's nice to not have to pay any money for it. If you don't cut your own, how often do you go to get it done/how much do you pay?

Had some right disasters with my hair when I was younger.
Cut it, called it the choppy/shaggy look, it was certainly unique.
Permed it myself....let’s not go there
Dyed it all colours, some of them unintended, who knew trying to go blonde from jet black would go green..or orange.
Get my hair cut every 5 weeks or so now, hairdresser comes to the house, charges a tenner.

Oh no, sounds like your locks have gone through a lot. Do you keep the same style every time and the hairdresser maintains it for you? Sounds nice to have a specific routine for that case!

Same style, just get it trimmed.
No need to dye it now, it has about a dozen different shades of grey in it.

Grey suits a lot of people, I bet you look like a star, especially if you keep the style maintained like you said.

I cut my fringe once when I was about 11, it ended up getting shorter and shorter so never again

Like you Smudge my hair has been all colours through the years, last year I decided to stop dying and let my natural colour come through, I love it, no more sitting in the hairdressers waiting for the dye to take hold, which had become a chore rather than a pleasure, I get my hair cut every 8 weeks now and no I would never cut it myself

I wouldn't trust myself

I get my hair done every month.

Every month I get a wash and cut (£18)
Every other month I get a perm and a cut (£39)
Then whenever my roots look bad I get my hair coloured again (blonde) £50 each time

I think it's probably some kind of protective wash and style to help the perm?

Always. I fade the back and sides in and the just cut off the top when it gets too splitend-y

I’m done in 20 minutes. Doubt i’d even get to the barbers and be seated in 20 minutes.

Also the price of long haircuts compared to short ones is so drastically different.

Cut and blow dry every 6 weeks 50.00...highlights every 12 weeks additional 60.00...expensive but whilst I’m working and can afford it it’s worth every penny because I have a fab hairdresser.
