A manual hair cutting implement for enabling a person to cut his or her own hair. The implement includes an elongated handle having a brush rotatably mounted thereon, and two combs and two cutting blades. The brush, combs, and blades are mounted on a working head which is pivotally adjustable with respect to the handle, so that the angle therebetween is adjustable. The brush is cylindrical, and has an axis of rotation longitudinally disposed with respect to the handle. The combs and blades are arranged to intersect the periphery of the cylindrical brush, so that hair is appropriately lifted from the head by the brush, maintained in place by the combs, and cut by the blades. The blades are located in a protected position between the handle and brush, and inside the comb, so that exposure of the blade is minimized for safety. The working head is also adjustably mounted to the handle, so that the effective length of the latter is adjustable. The implement enables right and left handed operation, is safe to use, and effectively lifts and holds hair for cutting.
