When I need to do a home haircut and it's been soooo long since I last did one.

Any tips on how to end up not looking like I've used a lawn mower.

Genuine plea for help !

Use a hedge trimmer instead

I'm thinking aim for a style but will end up buzz cut to rectify the mess

Maybe watch a tutorial vid online.

Sorry I am not much help, I need to do this in a few days to do my sons hair... and I am a nervous wreck already!

Good luck

Genuinely, if you go for a grade 2 at bairdresser, go grade 4 at home, and make sure the guard is properly on!

Failing that, do you have a hat?

I think the videos might be the way, didn't want buzz cut but I guess there's always that option and it will grow back eventually

Have you seen the videos where they (accidently) leave the guard off

Watch a few YouTube videos and go a guard higher than what you’d have at the barber
