Getting a hair cut

My son is 13, he has severe ADHD and autism. When he was younger he didn’t mind having his hair and even went to the barbers. Now, he refuses. We spoken about it together so I can understand why he doesn’t like it and the main reason seems to be because it’s change. He says that I might cut it wrong, he might not like it etc. I cut his her once on a Sunday night ready for school, the next morning he did everything not to go to school, I finally got him to the school gates and he was heartbroken thinking that his “entire school will laugh” at him. I physically couldn’t make him walk in to school so upset so we went home and I took a day off work. 
My question is - does anyone have any advise, tips anything that I can use to make having his hair cut easier for both of us? 
Thanks in advance!

  • As a child I used to scream and cry having my hair cut. I found it a traumatic experience, I hated every bit of it. Eventually my mum did it for me at home but I still didn't like that either. I hate the feel of people touching my hair and cutting it off.

    I never have haircuts anyhow haven't done for years. My hair is very, very long now. But I love it and don't ever intended to have it cut again.
