Do you have a link to any of the videos that you found particularly useful? My partner's situation is actually quite similar to yours (the thick hair &amp; beard pattern are almost identical!) &amp; I've been trying to convince him to let me have a go at cutting his hair (he keeps threatening to just buzz cut it all off lol, so I figure if I can convince him to let me try cutting it that there won't be much at stake anyway lol). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-things-you-learn-on-youtube-or-i-cut-my-husband%e2%80%99s-hair--d#post-2123378 Tue, 26 May 2020 07:20:47 +0000 lyn67 2123378@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>OMg&nbsp;<b>Staysfit!</b> LOL, Poor your Guy!!!:-) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-things-you-learn-on-youtube-or-i-cut-my-husband%e2%80%99s-hair--d#post-2123305 Mon, 25 May 2020 18:50:11 +0000 Cardiff girl 2123305@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That’s a really good job!My husband is getting our daughter to regularly clipper his hair but they do &nbsp;it all over the bathroom and don’t &nbsp;clean up!Outside is a MUCH better idea. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-things-you-learn-on-youtube-or-i-cut-my-husband%e2%80%99s-hair--d#post-2123290 Mon, 25 May 2020 16:54:58 +0000 anchie 2123290@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Good job.

Like MsMaven’s husband, mine has nearly nothing on top. He’s talking about whacking what is there himself. May need to look at YouTube myself.<br />My uncle used to joke that his haircuts cost more because the barber had to look for it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-things-you-learn-on-youtube-or-i-cut-my-husband%e2%80%99s-hair--d#post-2123242 Mon, 25 May 2020 13:12:27 +0000 Janet 2123242@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Good job! My husband has been trimming the sides of his hair and letting the top get longer — he jokes that it’s his “boy band” look. And then he keeps threatening to hand me the clippers and let me cut his hair. I have never cut anyone else’s hair in my life! Eek. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-things-you-learn-on-youtube-or-i-cut-my-husband%e2%80%99s-hair--d#post-2123241 Mon, 25 May 2020 13:06:20 +0000 Staysfit 2123241@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nice work Carla! &nbsp;I cut DH hair two weeks ago and also used YouTube University for instruction. &nbsp;The hair looks pretty good. &nbsp;I give my cut a B+. &nbsp;Sadly, DH asked me to trim his brows using the clippers. &nbsp;I had no clue how to proceed and assume it must have been part of the advanced course content that I did not bother to watch. &nbsp;DH directed me to take a comb and then run the clipper over his brows to trim the longer hairs. OOOPS! &nbsp;I scalped his brow! &nbsp;Thankfully, he has a good sense of humor, and laughed it off, as did I. &nbsp;:-) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-things-you-learn-on-youtube-or-i-cut-my-husband%e2%80%99s-hair--d#post-2123213 Mon, 25 May 2020 10:41:29 +0000 lyn67 2123213@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Haha I can see the tan lines on his neck with the long hair (mine had them, too:-))--- great job Carla!!:-) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-things-you-learn-on-youtube-or-i-cut-my-husband%e2%80%99s-hair--d#post-2123209 Mon, 25 May 2020 10:08:57 +0000 Bijou 2123209@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am so impressed, you are one very accomplished lady.

I too had to watch a video, but I used to cut my boys hair with clippers and had an idea. DH got the best clippers and I used my hair cutting scissors to clean up. Unlike your DH with his wonderful head of hair, mine has hardly any on top, which made it much easier.&nbsp;</p> <p>Next time it will go faster. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-things-you-learn-on-youtube-or-i-cut-my-husband%e2%80%99s-hair--d#post-2123159 Sun, 24 May 2020 23:14:46 +0000 elpgal 2123159@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You did great!

The yard looks like ours does after one of us brushes and trims the dog. Your DH looks great. You can always get a job doing this although it would be tiring and hard on the hands if one has arthritis or problems when doing anything repetitive.<br /> You blended in the hair so well . </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-things-you-learn-on-youtube-or-i-cut-my-husband%e2%80%99s-hair--d#post-2123138 Sun, 24 May 2020 21:36:17 +0000 rachylou 2123138@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ohmigosh.
