      Don’t get a beard trimmer and also use it on your hair; get a hair trimmer and also use it on your beard. Specifically, get the kind that comes with an assortment of combs up to 1" (and then maybe even buy the 1-1/4" and 1-1/2" combs that are sold separately, too).

      Only of you do it wrong, or you want to look like a serial rapist.

      If you have a simple cut/style all it takes is a little practice to DIY.

      It only takes a few minutes of YouTube videos before you can do a passable men’s haircut.

      I cut my own hair during the pandemic and never went back to paying for it.

        Same, saving way more than I’d have guessed. I go for buzzing, but I’m nearly bald on top anyways, so it just looks cleaner.

      So you just buzz cut your entire hair essentially? I did that once and looked like a serial rapist

      Buzz cut was only once because I messed up. Usually I do a trim, short on the sides and back and longer on top. It’s easier than it sounds - I just use a smaller mirror along with the bathroom mirror to see the back.
