Yes. But I also have my cosmetology license. And I don't cut it every time. I love really layered hair so I'm fine, I have texturing shears and point cut. Enlist a pal you trust to help. Good luck!

Let me know how it goes...I've been thinking about this for awhile and my super-long hair is getting a little annoying. I cut my boyfriend's hair though and it was TERRIBLE. But maybe I can weld scissors better than clippers...

good luck!

i heard trimming and layering long hair it's way easier than men's hair......
i'll look at some more videos and start trimming a lil..then i'll try with the layers..
i just trimmed them 3 weeks ago but i feel they need more care so i wanna be able to give them care whenever i want it ;-)))
if i get good at it i'll post some demo videos

It's been said that people who cut their own hair are mentally unstable/insane, so I always giggle when I hear people talking about doing stuff like this.

Not meant as any sort of judgement, and no offense intended. In fact, the person who first mentioned this to me was also a cosmetologist and thought it was funny that my boyfriend at the time had been cutting his own hair for ages.
Said boyfriend was completely bonkers, so I found it to be incredibly funny...

Over the years (since first having heard the statement) I have heard this several other times from various sources unrelated to the first. Perhaps it's a rumour started by hairdressers to increase their clientele by way of deterring "everyday people" from considering doing something seemingly very simple with scissors? ;)
Sometimes stuff just sticks around for the purpose of sending an occasional giggle one's way from time to time. :)
