DIY Haircut: Step 3
DIY Haircut: Step 3 Now begins the nerve-wracking part. Try your best to keep a steady hand as you carry out the next step. "If you're looking to just trim dead ends, hold the hair between your pointer and middle finger, and slide it down to the bottom where the dead ends start," notes Nogueira. At this point, you can grab your scissors and begin cutting straight across. Nogueira recommends starting by trimming just a small length, as you can always cut more if needed -- but there's no going back if you remove too much.

Sidenote: You'll get the best results using a pair of professional hair-cutting shears. But then again, paper-cutting shears work in a pinch.
