I don't really enjoy cutting my husband's and kids' hair. I haven't ever been trained professionally, but over the years I've figured out how to do it. I keep on cutting their hair, because it saves us so much money.
$12 per haircut x 2 adults and 5 kids = $84
$84 x 3 hair cuts per year = $252 saved every year
$252 a year! That is why I continue to cut their hair.
Two of my daughters are at the preteen age and wanting fancier hair styles. So, I'll probably take them to a real hair stylist and watch very closely - so I'll be able to try it on my own next time.

Cut Your Family's Hair

Around here you couldn't get a haircut for $12. And I cut all of our hair for that reason, and always have.
This is a great money saver. I have been cutting hair in my family for over 4 years. My husband is in the military and needs a haircut every few weeks, so we have saved hundreds of dollars over the years.
Great tip!
This is great! Thanks for the links, can't wait to check them out. I just tried cutting baby boy's hair a few days ago, and Oh my goodness did I mess it up!! I felt SO bad! I had decided it would be best to just pay the money to have it done, though it goes against every penny pinching sense I have! Maybe after this I'll be brave enough to try again. :)
I always just line up my husband and four boys about once a month...and give 'em all hair cuts!! I love thinking of the money it has saved...and hopefully will continue to save us (as long as the boys don't get picky!).
Having five boys and a husband, I'm saving a lot of money as well! But mine never turn out professionally-great-looking.
I tell the boys it will grow back, and if they want to spend $20 on a stylist instead of a video game they can go ahead.
They complain about the style, but not enough to actually spend the money LOL!!
