The definition of brave (or stupid?): letting your 16 year old granddaughter cut your hair 
She wants to go to school for this, and she cut her own hair and her sister's and they were ok, so... why not? I'll comment with a picture of the finished product tomorrow.

She is a lucky girl to inspire such faith!

My youngest does her own too- days she refuses to pay someone to do something she can do herself. I'm that way with some things- I've fixed lawn mowers, dryers, even a van I had. I ain't skeered!
@JonnaBononna if somebody (or some machine) put it together, I am confident I can dis-assemble & reassemble it! But not vehicles...no garage, gravel driveway (aka the Instant graveyard of dropped parts)
One of the doctors at work has his 11yo cutting his hair since the beginning of the pandemic. She "YouTubed how" and does a pretty good job.

Brave and supportive! Hopefully she wanted a good outcome too, so it was a loving gesture to trust in her skills, adding to her confidence and self esteem with her dream.

That was my exact thought process! You should have seen the smile and excitement when I asked her if she'd cut it for me!
@JonnaBononna Would be an easy decision for me, since I have lots of length to spare and I only need a straight line cut, but your style looks more challenging. Kudos to you both!
@Julie808 she just did a straight line cut for me, but she was meticulous in how she did it! Mom's been nervous that she wants this rather than traditional college, but I think she'll be amazing.
Not to worry...it grows back and you can always wear a bandana

I told her if she messed it up too bad, shaving my head is on my bucket list lol. It was fine though, as I knew it would be- she cut her hair and it's even.
