I am gonna cut my hair on my own

[Ältai.Anabolic]

I need to trim the bulk at the back of my hair with a hairclipper.


Should I use the longest guard with swiping/flicking motion up to the occipital prominent?

yes it's not that hard, I did it for years.

you want actual hair scissors for the top and front though.

She forgot to cut the back

I've been doing it for 4 years now, saved up ~500-600€ while not having the risk of getting a cut that doesn't fit me since I know what I want it to look like

Can you guys do the back without mirror just go by the feel?


Or you need that tri mirrors?

you need two mirrors but one can be small, you can feel when you need to lift the clippers up though.

I use a small mirror so I can see the back. It's almost possible to do it without it once you know more or less how it works but you still no matter what need to check if everything's fine there in the back
