For his first post on WalletPop, humor writer Marc Acito, pictured above, tackled the topic of saving money by cutting your own hair.

Acito’s tips include:

  • Shave your head with clippers, if you’re male.
  • Avoid the Flowbee Vacuum Haircut System.
  • Stick with a single color rather than trying highlights.
  • Select a one-length haircut, because it’s the easiest one to manage.
  • Buy a quality pair of hair-cutting scissors.
  • Check the article “How to Cut Your Own Hair” on How to Do Things for suggestions.
  • Cut a little at a time to avoid a big mistake that can’t be corrected.

I’ve never been brave enough to try cutting my own hair, although I trimmed my daughter’s bangs when they were young.

My mom cut and permed my hair and my sisters’ hair when we were in grade school. The results were usually O.K.
