I'm also one who used to dye my own hair but then just let it grow out natural. I used to get my eyebrows shaped but don't bother with that anymore because of the cost and hassle, maybe I should check out doing it myself. I do cut my own hair though, sometimes I get somebody (DP or my mum) to go over the back to make sure it is not completely jagged but I do it all in the "rough look" so that it doesn't have to be perfect. I tell myself it totally works lol.
