I’m autistic, I’ve had one haircut since covid because I hate the sensory aspect of haircuts. I’ve been searching online of how to cut hair and it doesn’t look that hard, but a lot of people seem to advise against it. I think that if I fuck it up it’s not the end of the world, I can just go to a professional. But I have very long hair so I have a lot of opportunity for trial and error. I think that if I get some practice, it’s something I can continue to do going forward. I also don’t particularly care how it looks, I just want it to be shorter.

    i’ve been doing it myself for years, with my gf just finishing the neck. Not hard. But I do just one simple cut (crew cut). I have in a note on my phone the 3 different size guards I use for different parts and i’m good.
