A couple of thoughts.

Do you have any friends who could come over and help? We had friends in vermont who would help each other cut kids hair, that way the not mom did the cutting ( less resistance and more coperation) and the mom just did the bathing.

If the winter coats don't have hoods ( or ones that the hood can zip off) they can be used to shake hair off allowing you to still cut out side in the winter. ( I have cut my dh's hairout side in the snow because I could not deal with the inside mess)

Every two weeks is really often, I didn't even cut my dh's hair that often when we was working as a trial attorney. Is there a way you could streatch it between cuts? Or a way to do a quick trim in-between ( I would often just trim around dh's ears - sometimes with the vacume tube in the other hand so that there wasn't a mess)

Hair cutting is such a huge issue with sensory sensitive kids. And it is so expencive. In Vermont I had decied it was worth it to pay someone because I had found some one who worked wonderfully with early bird( worked to her preferences but helped get rid of the areas that would tangle, and worked really well with her sensory issues with the sound of the cutting), here I tried one place and it wasn't worth the price.
