I also cut my own hair for a long time, a trick I picked up from mk, although I had a slightly better haircut. It's not hard, if you're willing to have one really bad haircut (your first). You learn a lot then you get decent at it pretty quickly. I would say the biggest secret is to cut the ends in a kinda jagged way (like what thinning scissors do), because that hides mistakes really well. Obviously the back is the hardest part. If you have two opposing mirrors it's not so bad once you get used to looking at it backward. Wouldn't try to freehand that shit without a mirror. Asking for trouble.
