Hi,

I want to cut my own hair and get an affordable but decent scissors to do it. I'm wondering if I can get something that I could use for both my head hair and my beard? And if so, what would you recommend?

PS is there a better place to post this? Haha

Apparently it's hard to find stuff. I'm also left handed but it was difficult to find affordable lefty barber shears.

I thought about just getting a righty but the decent looking sub~$30 ones that people were recommending online all had the offset handles which would be extra uncomfortable.

Anyway. I ended up ordering this so I'll let you all know how it turns out: 5.5" Left Handed Professional Barber Scissors Solingen Hair Cutting Sharp Shears https://www.ebay.com/itm/254784385585?
