I am 81. I was raised in my mother’s beauty shop and as I got older I did her hair. Then I began to do my own because I was always unhappy with others. I still do my own haircuts just like you showed. I have an adjustable wall mirror so I can cut the back. I wear my hair very short in a neckline and gets lots of compliments and questions about where i get my hair done!

I also do my own hair. 😬 Most of the time, it turns out okay but one time I had to go to the salon to rescue me from my mistake. 😳 Cutting your own hair is very liberating. I ended up cutting 28 inches off during the quarantine. Look forward to new videos. You’re gorgeous.

I so love your confidence! I imagine you approach life's challenges with this same sassy confrontation. I love how it came out; especially the layers!

You are one brave woman :)

You are halfway through, i can tell how adorable it's going to look!! Tanja, it looks great!!!

wonderful job you did, thanks for the instructions you've given us!

Great job, you look fabulous! I can't wait to try your technique to make layers.

Great job! You did an amazing job!

Plus, you do a wonderful job yourself and you save money!!!

Thanks for the detailed video- helps to make it easier to follow. Love the end result.

Love your videos…. So impressed with your DIY hair cutting skills, I’m too intimidated to do mine, mine is kind of thick (thankfully it’s recovered since the pandemic where I lost A LOT of hair!) and that makes it more of a challenge for a beginner, I think…..I do LOVE watching you do yours though!

I needed a trim and your post helped me so much in doing it myself. It turned out nice and was easy to do. Thank you!

You did an amazing job!! Looks nearly professional!! Very cute!! 👍👍💯♥️

You look so awesome with shorter hair! I've watched you from the beginning of your channel and love when you have a new video❤

I was going to suggest you get an Adjustable Height Floor Standing Make-Up Mirror. I bought one 20 years or more ago. I paid like $45 for it. It's invaluable for hands-free styling my hair in the back. Or cutting my own hair. It has a regular mirror on one side and magnifying on the flipside. I did a quick Google search and was floored at what they are priced at now ($400 and up). Insane the price got jacked up so high. I'm going to have to be extra careful now that nothing happens to it. Geez! When I cut my own hair, I lay a newspaper across my sink, to catch all the clippings. And I stand on an old bed sheet I set aside for the purpose. Then I just fold up the newspaper and toss it. Then I fold up the sheet and take it out to the garbage can and give it a good shake. Less mess. Your hair turned out pretty good.

Good job! I’ve been cutting my hair since I was in junior high…long time ago❤

Looks lovely!❤

Looks fabulous, cute haircut.

You are Beautiful!! What a cute, flattering cut; Great job!! 😊

You are so brave and it paid off! Looks great! 👏👏👏

Well done I’m going to give this a shot. X

Great job! I love it!

Well done, i really love it, looks great. thanks for sharing video.

I think you did an amazing job and it really suits you

I use masking tape around my head to smooth down the hair and make a level line. Stick it around to your cheeks I also use a nightlight cap tied to keep every thing in its place. 🇨🇦

Well done.....you have beautiful hair...love the natural Grey....professional finish....

Looks great!

I have been cutting my own hair since Covid-19 hit. Just going straight around and hoping for the best. This has been very helpful and I am going to try your hints and still hope for the best. Thanks.

Great Cut!

You did a great job on your hair

Amazing!!

Awesomeness!

Great tutorial. Yr hair looks great. Thanks for sharing 🙏

Very cute. I’m impressed with your ability and bravery to cut your own hair.

Tanja, thank you so much! I added this video under my "favorites". I have been cutting my hair for many years, and mostly in a classic bob. This haircut is great and you did a beautiful job on it! I'm 65 and embracing my gray hair for the first time, and I may cut my hair into this amazing style!!

You did a great job! I understand fully the rational for cutting your own hair. You have nice hair.

Super cute! Good job. I am about to shorten mine a smidgen.

You did a great job. You have pretty hair. Thanks for sharing

Lovely looks really good, i cut my hair , it hurts the arms , have to take rests in between,

❤ Good Job your hair is lovely.

I like the lift you gave your hair. Good job!

You did a really good job...lm nearly 83 and lm still cutting mine....we can do it!

I use a comb and a hair clipper underneath it for the back , that is soooooo much more convenient than cutting it with scissors.

You did a very good job. I have cut my own hair many times. You just have to take your time and think about what you need to do. Thank goodness I don’t have to do that anymore because my youngest son is a very good hairdresser. My problem now is getting an appointment when he has time to do my hair. But you really do a good job on your hair.

I always cut my hair between going to salon; use the same method you do. Just hard to cut the back like I want it. You did a good job, looks very nice.

Thank you! Really useful video, and the end result looks great!👍

Looks great! Excellent tutorial…..Are u a hairdresser? If not, u should have been.❤️❤️❤️

Looks Lovely!!! Try putting an old towel across your sink and let the hair fall in that then shake it off in the trash.

Looks good.

Looks great!!😊

Great job!

I love it!

I did the same thing, have been cutting my hair at home for some time. I was looking to be sure that what you were doing would allow for some flip. I do not like the curved under look on me. I go another step and take the ends, curving them upward and nipping them off. It's the opposite of an undercut. I don't know if it has a name. I did get somewhat of a "ducktail" when I held the back hair over to the side to cut. I only notice it when I take a shower. I may try holding the hair out and slightly upward for a little more layering, without a ducktail. Then taking that same hair, grasping the ends and curving the ends upward in-between two fingers and nipping the ends off. This does help to create flip. I wonder why no one is cutting this style, that I have found on KZfaq. I also wonder why my hairdressers have no clue, anymore, what I want. I learned this method from a hairdresser in the 80's. I am over 70, so holding the hair out from the middle of the back of my hair is difficult. [gets easier when I lift weights, ladies!]

I would love to know what brand and style your glasses are!?

Oh the suspense! Seriously I keep holding my breath. You give me courage.

Thanktou for that I will now cut my 0wn hair xx

Shorter suits your face perfectly!

Gorgeous 😍

You did an amazing job but I am sticking with the salon.

That look good.

I always do my hair myself I save time and money

Great job, are you available to cut mine? Lol. Are you going silver? It looks very beautiful!

Use clippers its faster and better on neckline

Nice

Need to get the middle of the back.

*Promo sm* ❣️

You are brave…but the back shouldn’t be longer than the front….not a good profile.

Too slow
