Just learned to cut my own hair
After this whole thing is over, barber shops are likely going to lose customers who found out that self hair cut at home is not that hard after all.

I wear a goatee, and try to have a trim, professional appearance. I work with phsucians and pt's at my local VA hospital and appearance is important. Even learned to trim the hair over my ears with a sharp paur of scissors

I learned cutting my hair a long time ago. I tend to have it short. The equipment cost about as much as 4 haircuts and lasts for years. I can effortlessly cut it like a Hollywood star would have it (Telly Savalas comes to my mind).

The hair should be damp. You straigten it and get it parallel with a comb and cut it to equal length along the comb. Gage the length for successive cuts against the hair you already cut (about half of the strand should have the new length). When you Do not snip off too much in one go. You can always cut off more. BTW: Telly Savalas is perhaps best known for his role as Lt. Theo Kojak. His hair would not exactly be considered as long  .

I'm not that brave to try it. I'll wait until the quarantine is lifted.
