"I do my own fringe - after a fashion but am too scared to tackle the length. There was this DIY haircut thing going round a few years back that lots of women raved about where you scrape all your hair into a ponytail and cut the length from there ... the finished (layered) effect depending on where the 'tail' was sited, from memory I think you put it right on top of your head. I'm sure Google and YouTube must have loads of ideas ha ha but not sure I'd be willing to try for real. Ms G" I actually did this, but I chickened out and only cut about 2 inches. I'm thinking more like 6 or more this time, and I was wondering of anyone whose done it has tips. Alrhough it sounds like maybe I should just pay someone | |||

"depends how you want it, i cut mine myself for over 10 years and people were always surprised when I told them, I did straight blunt cuts or sometimes layer, ;layers are easier. Only just gone back to the hairdressers recently as i've gone back to a bob, but I still won't let her touch my fringe, I do that myself " I want heavy layers (not just in the front, but all around my head) and cut to about 4 inches below my shoulders. Any tips for layers? | |||

Any tips for layers?" Sometimes I used to put my hair in a ponytail, twist it around a lot, then cut the end off for layers, if you chop into the ends it looks more natural, the higher the ponytail on your head the shorter/more pronounced the layers - other times i'd section the hair up so I knew i was doing it evenly, then hold the sections out at right angles or more and cut, same as hairdressers do, again, the higher you hold, the shorter the layers. | |||

"I'm sure some place looks for human hair for wigs if your chopping of a fair bit maybe donate it to them if they'll cut it . Get a sponsered cut raise money as well you don't have to shave head completely . " I've donated my hair before. I tend to cut it when it's really long. I'll look into it this time. Great idea. | |||

Maybe ask the cancer place that TDs social was in aid of? It's supposed to be really great and they may be able to suggest how to do it. | |||

"Right OP this is how to choose the perfect hairstyle.... Firstly, what is your face shape? This is the biggest factor, as face shape determines the style and length. Secondly, hair texture and thickness. Thirdly, body shape Fourth, career Fifth, dress style. I'm all for self-cutting (as in hair.) however, you must stay away from the more sleek looks ie.. Bobs. As these need to be more precise. For the self-cutters I would recommend the layered or choppy look as these can be less structured. However, you will still need to check for symmetry and balance. PM me with the answers to the 5 questions. Include a recent face and body pc and I will recommend your perfect style and tell you if it's possible to achieve yourself or a salon visit is needed. I will also give you a step by step tutorial. Now that's fab. " Ok, I'll pm you later today with the answers and face pic | |||

"Why can't you just visit the hairdressers OP? You've got fantastic hair and I can't see how you could cut it yourself. I'd personally seek professional assistance else it may end up looking a right dogs dinner. There's a guy at work who cuts his own hair...it looks like Edward Scissorhands has been at it!" That made me I honestly don't want to pay someone to cut my hair and then end up not liking the cut anyway. It's happened in the past. | |||

"Hmm. I guess I have some thinking to do. I'm so torn. Maybe I'll give it a snip and then go to the hairdressers when I fuck up, like some have said. " Try the local hairdressing college - we have Francescos. You can book in with different year levels yr 3 being most qualified. Cheap & if the cock it up they fix it too. My dad & Stepmum have been doing this for years now. Stepmum goes once a week for a free wash & blow-dry too | |||

Any tips or opinions would be welcome -Courtney " I wouldn't suggest cutting it yourself, but if it's long and it's just a trim, get a friend to do it. If it's thick, clip 2/3 up and then cut the remaining section. Make the first cut in the middle as a guide, don't cut from one side to the other, it'll be uneven. Then do the hair that's tied up in a couple of sections. Also, while having in done put your head forward and keep it there while your friend works. Good luck. Xx | |||

"I've cut my own hair for years. Tie it on top of your head and cut the ends off to the length you want. Depending on where you tie it you get layers. Bear in mind I look like a shaggy dog though... " I do the same. I've got very curly hair and I've only ever found one hairdresser who could do a good cut on it. Most just don't layer in enough, then they mousse it and use a diffuser (every fucking time - why?). I come out looking like Dolly Parton. Unfortunately, the guy who knew how to do it was my ex's brother. | |||
