Refugee 7 Report post Posted March 22, 2009 How good are you with the hair clippers/scissors? If you had to cut someone else’s hair, could you? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DCAHNM 0 Report post Posted March 22, 2009 I am no good at all with the scissors.. I tried to cut two people's hair while in college--their hair looked really bad.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Patty Petty 9 Report post Posted March 22, 2009 I went to cosmetology school and I did do hair for a short while. So, I could do it in a pinch... IF I had the proper scissors (which I no longer have). One thing we learned in school... NEVER cut hair with kitchen scissors, LOL. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AmyLou 5 Report post Posted March 22, 2009 I used to cut my kid's hair when they were really little, but those were buzz cuts. Otherwise I have no experience or skill with scissors! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

conmae 0 Report post Posted March 22, 2009 I trim my own bangs and give Griffin his haircuts. With Grif his head is a bit misshapen & nobody sees the back so I can take a few liberties with it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
emmie 2 Report post Posted March 22, 2009 No, and I don't fill my own teeth or give myself a pap smear either. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pettyfreak94 1 Report post Posted March 22, 2009 I still have a hard time cutting along the lines hahaha So I probably cant cut a person's hair. They'd totally regret letting me if they did. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ladywiz 4 Report post Posted March 22, 2009 I have cut several folk's hair and my own as well, but that doesn't mean I'm good at it, hahaha! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LizzieB 0 Report post Posted March 22, 2009 I've been known to trim my own bangs in the past, but only in a pinch. (I used sewing scissors, Patty. A bit better than kitchen shears, but probably not much, lol.) I'd never try anything beyond that, that's for sure!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pawie 6 Report post Posted March 22, 2009 (edited) I cut my ex's hair for years. He never was particular about it, and I did cut my own for years too. It looked weird anyway. My kids though, refused to come near me with scissors in hand once they were old enough to realize what I had in mind. It turned out expensive. Now - I relax in my hairdresser's chair whenever there is a need :003: Edited March 23, 2009 by Pawie Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Trishia4 28 Report post Posted March 22, 2009 I guess I could trim the bangs, anything more than that enlist the services of the salon. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Flower 0 Report post Posted March 22, 2009 I cut my familys hair. If it was girls no way! But I'm pretty good with the clipers for the men. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Starfish 0 Report post Posted March 22, 2009 LMAO at Emmie's response. I used to buzz cut my sons' hair, and I still cut my husband's hair. I hate doing it and don't think I'm good at it, but he doesn't like going to the barber shop and never complains about the results... well, except that time I forgot to put the guard on and pretty much shaved a stripe into his head, LOL.

wild1forever 152 Report post Posted March 22, 2009 I always thought I was clueless about cutting hair...until my older son screamed every time we took him to get a haircut, and I had no choice but to learn (while making it into an elaborate, crazy game :095:). I cut his hair for about three years, and actually got reasonably good at it. Thankfully, that's all in the past now. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wingspan91089 0 Report post Posted March 22, 2009 I can cut my own bangs, but I've never attempted to give anyone a haircut. My mother's a hairdresser, so she does our hair. Quite nicely too. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SingsInFrench 262 Report post Posted March 22, 2009 I could never cut someone's hair, and no one would want me to. I do trim my bangs from time to time. Luckily, asymmetrical bangs are acceptable these days. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
