I think Cindy is the only regular poster here who is a woman, and IIRC
she didn't go to the beauty parlor in the first place, but if I've got
that wrong, same questions in reverse to Cindy.

My husband has been cutting his own hair for years. He has so little
left that it's foolish to go to the barber to have them run clippers over
his entire head. He got his own electric clipper.

I've been going to Fantastic Sam's for bimonthly haircuts for quite some
time. I last did so in February 2020, if memory serves. Since then my
husband and I have been cutting my hair. I've never really liked going
to the salon, and the results from us whacking at it with clippers, scissors,
and a razor comb are not terribly different from a professional cut--once
I slather on some mousse to get everything to stay in place where I
want it (which I've always done).

I don't much care what I look like. I cut my hair short (about 1" on top,
less on the back and sides) for convenience. When it gets so long I
have visible "bed head", I cut it.
