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 used to shave my head with a razor when I was in the army. I’d give my ponytail a go with the scissors when I let it grow afterwards.
Both are easy and work.
My wife has requirements on my hairdo nowadays, so she gets to cut it. It’s getting too thin for ponytails and she doesn’t like baldy.
