Haircuts

Who here doesn't like their hair being cut?

I had to cut Damien hair earlier and while I was doing so I realised how different it is to me getting my hair cut.
He had to have books, TV on, something to eat and after a while he wanted to be wrapped up tight in the towel. He also said 'ow' and 'stop my hair hurts'. I had to stop and give him breaks and warn him before I sprayed his hair with water. I have to use sissors because he HATE clippers and is scared of them.

When I have mine cut I go in, sit down and relax till it's done. I can't even get him inside a hair salon let alone let them cut his hair.
NT's have it soooooooo easy! It is not fair!

This is in general not parent because I am asking a general autistic question

I hate getting my hair cut so much. I actually need a hair cut right now. !@@!#

I avoid haircuts like the plague. I give myself haircuts sometimes rather than go to the salon, but then again, I hate the salon environment because it is the epitome of one hour of nt small talk and I'm not 'fashionable'...

I like to cut my own hair though. I gave myself bangs today.

I absolutely despise getting my hair cut, but in my case it's become...uh...necessary.

I don't mind getting haircuts (in fact enjoy them), but am extremely picky about how they are done.

When I get my hair cut its because I can't spike it anymore (it keeps falling over) but I can't sit still long enough and I always hate how it turns out.

I hate haircuts, mostly because I can't seem to explain to the hair dresser what I want no matter how many visual aids I use. (There's also my extreme hatred of being touched by strangers.) I started cutting my own hair a few years back. I had been coloring it myself with professional hair color for some time, I figured I should just make the leap to cutting it as well.

Never looked back, honestly. Plus, I'd rather walk around with a bad hair cut that I did myself rather than a mistake someone else produced, that I had to paid for. I'm pretty good at it now too. Everyone asks "Your hair is beautiful, what salon do you go to?"

I used to have problems with that.
I procrastinate going now, as an adult, and the hairdresser won't even try to smalltalk with me.

I hate hair cuts too. I get mine cut every couple of weeks to keep it looking professional. It is torture every time. Clippers do hurt if the user touches my skin, goes too fast, or the clippers are dull. The feeling of all the little hair pieces falling on my face makes it seem hard to breathe. The places that have a vacuum hooked to the clippers work ok for me, as long as the person cuts gently enough. The scissors are the best if the user makes sure not to drop the hair on me or scratch me with the comb.

My problem is more of the change taking place, then the sensory issues. I only have light and sound sensory...not touch.

omgosh hate my haircut being done, we go to a special haircutter at her house cuz i get really upset.

Being Normal Is Vastly Overrated

I've typically dislike people touching my hair but at least in Japan you get a nice neck massage after which makes up for it.

I love getting my hair cut. I go in, looking like a freak, and than I come out, looking like Sid. :O)

Never liked it. Especially as a kid when my mom would take up to an hour to cut my hair. The worst part was crying if it took too long and having hair stick to my wet eyes.

Now, I only try to go to one barber because he's the fastest and never touches my head directly. Some barbers take long and grab my head to move it.
