Like this in the front and sides,

But even shorter in the back.

I have scissors, and clippers for one quarter, one inch, and a half inch settings.

How long is the hair on top?

There are some strands that are almost three inches long, I think, and it's more than just layered; it's very piecey.  If you want it shorter in the back, your clippers will surely do that.  I don't think I'd try it the first time; I'd take the picture to the salon and let them do it and then you should be able to maintain it after that.  Good luck!

I think HAWG has the best option...if you can't or don't want to go to a stylist...then I would get someone (with some talent) to cut it for you.

Good luck! I've had some stunning successes and some shocking disasters cutting my own hair. Take your time and be aware that things can go wrong quickly.
