I have been cutting my own hair for years. It began when I realized a long time ago that not a whole lot of people know how to cut thick, straight, asian hair without making it look like you're wearing the tectonic shelf of California. Or if they did, it cost two hundred bucks. So I just got done cutting my hair, and I can honestly tell you that it looks good from the front. Problem is, I couldn't find another mirror to check out the back, and was like Helen Keller with the scissors trying to make it even. So now I am going to trail at my (hopefully) new job. I think I better ask the neighbor if I'm presentable for the public yet...

I cut my hair myself, too! I'm in the same situation as you are: a good curly-hair haircut costs $200 a pop, and I just don't have that kind of cash. And since I don't have to be as worried about evenness as someone with straight hair, I just bought myself a little hair scissor and went at it.
i know, it's so crazy! i swear i'm in the wrong business. M has curly hair and i've tried to cut hers, but i didn't do such a good job :(
