I would try putting ear bud earphones in his ear and letting him listen to music or play a video game. It may mask the cutting sound while distracting him to keep him calm.

If you cut against the comb it will be that short length right? We deal with several cowlicks and curls that do better when longer.

One question: When you talk about using thinning scissors, you say to lay them against the hair to cut. What do you mean by this? Against the head? If not, how close to the head do you hold them to cut?
