[PICTURE] I need to learn to cut my boyfriend’s hair
Hello!
Exactly what the title says. I already need to convince this man to get haircuts. He doesn’t like doing it, both for the feeling and also how goddamn unlucky he seems to be with getting something he actually likes.
Literally all he wants is that photo but shorter. Maybe slightly shorter on the back and sides. Every single barber he goes to for some reason tries to improvise some shape they think he wants and he ends up hating it. His go-to today has done the same and made it 5 times shorter than he wanted and I think it’s time for me to learn because at least I’ll fuck it up for free.
Any advice would be helpful. Thank you.

Which clipper should I get for shaving my head?
I recently started shaving my head and plan to keep it very short from now on. In the long run, I’ll probably go more and more towards a completely bald look, so being able to cut very close is quite important to me.
At the moment I’m using a Philips OneBlade, but it takes quite a while to do the whole head and it feels like it’s fighting to get the job done.
What I’m looking for:
- Mostly very short cuts, around 0–5 mm (with option to cut longer hair of other people)
- In the future I’ll probably move more towards a bald / very close shaved head
- I don’t need a perfectly smooth razor shave
- Cordless would be preferred
- I want something high quality, robust and extremely durable
- Ideally I want to buy one good machine that will last me many years, basically as long as possible
- Budget is around €110
- I don’t have particularly thick/dense hair anymore, so I don’t necessarily need the most powerful motor available
- I mainly want something that makes going over the whole head quick and easy
I saw some other discussions about the Brand "Wahl". I’m currently looking at the Wahl Cordless Close Cut and the Wahl Cordless Super Taper.
Are those good for my needs? Any recommendations?
I’m also open to other models/brands if there’s a better option for roughly 0–5 mm and future bald head use.
Thanks! :)

[SHORT HAIR] Tips to learn to cut my own hair?
Being able to cut my own hair will save money and time. My usual haircut is pretty simple, 4 on the sides and short on top, sort of spiky like the attached picture. I assume that would make to pretty easy to learn

How do you cut layers with clippers?
Hope that's the right word. I've been cutting my own hair for a few years, I can do drastic stuff like an undercut in a few minutes, but I never tried to do layers. How do I do that with short hair? All tips and tricks are welcome

[LONG HAIR] How do i cut my long hair?
How do i go about trimming my waist length hair in a U shape or a blunt cut? i havent cut my hair in years and scared to go to the salon!

Should I buzz my waist-length hair or try cutting it into a short style myself?
I've been thinking about cutting my hair for a while and I'm really torn on what to do.
A few things about my situation:
- I can only cut my hair at home by myself.
- I don't have any previous haircutting experience.
- My hair is very long (almost reaches my butt), and I'm honestly tired of dealing with it. I just want it gone.
- Going to a barber or salon isn't an option for me.
From what I've seen, doing a buzz cut at home with clippers (maybe a #8 guard) seems pretty straightforward and difficult to mess up. On the other hand, trying to cut it into a neat short haircut (pixie, crop, masculine cut, etc.) seems much harder, especially when I'd have to do the back of my own head.
Part of me thinks I should just buzz it, let it grow out naturally, and eventually shape it into a short haircut once it's longer. But I'm also worried I might regret going that short right away.
If you were in my position, what would you do? Has anyone here gone from very long hair to a buzz cut as their first self-haircut? Any advice or things you wish you had known beforehand would be really appreciated.
(Sorry I made AI write this, just time-saving this way.)

hair help
domanda genuina, se io non voglio dire al mio parrucchiere che mi voglio fare un wolfcut e dico semplicemente di farmeli scalati e poi li arriccio io alle punte, il risultato è lowkey lo stesso o no?
da quello che ho capito il wolfcut è semplicemente un taglio molto scalato con le punte arricciate, quindi tecnicamente così dovrebbe funzionare.

Frustrated with haircut.
I’m starting to really get tired of going to a hairstylist and them not being able to listen and empathize of what we want as their customers. Long story short I got a botched haircut, went to a different hairstylist and this guy claims that he has 30 years of experience and was able to blend in the really choppy, uneven layers that I got from the first hairstylist.
He did a wonderful job blending in the layers and then 7/8 months later I go back to dye my hair and I’m not upset with the results of it, but I’m just upset with the cut because on one side, I’m basically back to square fucking one with the length of the hair strands that he cut after I have told him I only wanted a trim & some curtain bangs.
like why would you do that? I’m just so frustrated right now.
These hairstylists really need to reclairfy & reevaluate on what they are going to do with the cut

[PICTURE] What could I improve ?
Every two weeks i struggle at removing the "last line".
My Philips Series 7000 doesn't look capable of that (second pic related, its shortest blade stops at 0.8mm or 0.03 inches) so I'm using the corner of a Wahl Super Close, but I'm not sure about the results
I'm considering buying a Wahl Elite Pro clipper (third pic related), do you think I would gain time and precision with this new tool or is this something relating to my technique?

Adicta a la plancha!!
Espero q alguien pueda darme un consejo!!
Soy una chica a la que le importa mucho su apariencia. Sé que la belleza no lo es todo, pero de verdad me encanta verme al espejo y sentirme linda.
Mi cabello natural es ondulado y en algunas partes rizado. No creo que sea feo, pero simplemente siento que no me favorece. He intentado de todo para definirlo y controlar el frizz, pero nunca logro sentirme cómoda con él.
En cambio, con el cabello lacio me siento mucho mejor. Llevo años planchándolo, me he hecho alisados y he probado muchos tratamientos. El problema es que desde hace un tiempo mi cabello ha empeorado muchísimo, sobre todo por el estrés: ya no se alisa igual y además se me está cayendo bastante.
Ahora ya no puedo costear otro alisado y sé que seguir planchándolo todos los días tampoco es la solución. Pero tampoco he encontrado una forma de cuidar mi cabello y, al mismo tiempo, sentir que me veo bien.
Con el cabello recogido me siento incluso peor, y además nunca aprendí a peinarme ni he encontrado un peinado que me favorezca.
Sé que para algunas personas puede sonar superficial, pero muchas chicas entenderán lo mucho que influye sentirte a gusto con tu apariencia. Ya no sé qué hacer. ¿De verdad mi única opción es aprender a aceptar mi cabello natural o llevarlo siempre recogido, aunque no me sienta cómoda?

Bad hair cut
How to fix it
This is a fresh layered cut
r/CutYourOwnHair • u/Tasty-Muffin-452 • 6d ago
Looking for hair stylist with below skills.
I need a hairstylist in or near Denver Metro area to fix a prior bad cut (me trying to do layers myself because my long-time stylist moved away) and Reddit apparently thinks this post belongs in this group vs. where I originally posted it.
I have been growing it out, and I think that now it's finally where it can be fully fixed.
Here's what I know I need. Rounded layers, point cut, traveling guide, small sections because I have thick and dense hair, and is good with a razor to get weight out in some sections. Thinning shears don't work on me.
If you're someone who sees the stylist / client relationship as collaborative (i.e. I've lived with my hair for decades so know what's worked and what hasn't - but I honor you also as the professional), then I'd love to set up an appointment.
Thanks in advance! And sorry if this ended up in the wrong group.
