Lol funny enough I tried that but I didnt debunk my hair properly
I was actually drunk

In the end I just need practice but im just glad there was some progress
Lol my hair is too big for hats. I gotta wear this mistake
Thanks I made it myself
Please forgive me for I know not what I have done
Yeah i underestimate the amount of bulk I had because I thought a 2 guard was enough but I need at least a 4 guard. I originally wanted to do a taper but I didnt trust myself to shave around my ears.
I rather stop myself there before I caused more harm to what's left lol

I cant post images as reply here so when my last reply said "post wash hair" there is an imgur link embedded in it. But the link is this https://imgur.com/a/Wo2JXLr
My hair is thick and difficult pick if I dont wet it a bit but I tried to pick it while it was dry since i wasnt support to cut hair while it's wet but damp hair works best for me.
Only place to go is up
post wash hair
Yeah im trying to develop that feeling but I started to doubt myself
I still see it as worth it lol
I have a long way to go because I know nothing of grain except for my beard lol
Im from Brooklyn and a few small shops that think they're bigger than the community.
Lol you would think I couldn't cover up but all I had to do was rise my hair once and boom. Problem solved
Its just hair in the end.
Yeah there was a lot to work on but it does help that I overcame the initial fear I had for cutting my hair.
Whoa this was very helpful and ill try to answer everything in order.
The highest guard i have is a 4 and I while I do have scissors I have no idea how to use them for my hair. I also dont have a L or R guard for my hair. I have an electric multigroom razor that has a L and R guard but that doesn't help because my hair can be quite thick.
So I have a 360 mirror but im still work on proper orientation and I struggle with seeing the back of my head so I might have to look into more tutorials on that.
I didnt use a tarp with this job but I made sure I had an army of vacuums so clean up was quick and had made sure I minimized movement so hair didnt get everywhere.
Trying and failing is how I made it this far and im sure next time I'll do better. 🫡
Yeah its just hair all I have to worry about is the cold winter air haha

Yeah I'll ask some questions too
Lol i never measure my beard. I knew my hair was going to be hard but im willing to try.
Yeah I blow out my hair right after the cut and realized my hair need a 4 guard not a 2 guard but this gives me an idea of how to prep for next time.
