I’ve cut my own hair for years. To be clear, I earned my barber’s license way back when. So, I don’t necessarily recommend you follow suit. I mean, I have good, solid professional training and experience, and I even manage to screw up from time to time…and when you screw up a hair-cut, there’s no undoing that ‘do. You just have to wait for it to grow out. And most of us have to go out in public–at least every once in a while…without a scarf.

That said, we have to balance the pricey cost of hair-cuts with the need to get a quick trim every 3-4 weeks. So, I was glad to find the following video that offers an easy step-by-step guide to trimming your own hair. If you decide to try this, follow these steps to a “T;” otherwise, leave it to a pro.

NOTE: If you have short hair, you’ll need some bobbi pins to pull your hair back as described in the video.
