I love Fantastic Sam's and have never gotten a bad cut there.

With tape, I sort of wrap it around my neck so that I have a straight cut across the bottom. Then sort of angle a couple of pieces so that I can trim up the sides.MackerelCat wrote:I've never tried it with tape! For slightly longer hair, you can move the headband down to your chin, but you won't be talking much while doing the haircut.
My hair is very straight and fine, but it works pretty well with the resulting bob (even when I've made a small mistake on the back cut. ) I've figured out how to put in some layers, so that helps hide any imperfections.

I finally caved and got my hair cut at Fantastic Sam's. It was so long and floppy, but not yet long enough to put up in a ponytail, that I couldn't stand it any longer.
They gave me a handful of coupons, which kind of makes up for their prices having gone way up in the 10 months since I was last there.

Re: Trimming your own hair short and evenly
I am about due for a cut as well. with a coupon it is hard to beat fantastic sams, or great clips. I also have gone to super cuts with good results. just need a picture of what you want, I find that it helps as I have a hard time describing what I want. cj
