Female cutting men's hair

Q: As a female, would it be haraam for me to cut males hair into different styles like how a barber would?

A: Obviously, for a male and a female it is impermissible to cut the hair in the wrong ways. Furthermore, for females to cut the hair of adult males is another wrong and a serious sin which is against modest behaviour.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
