Anyone cut their own hair?

[Sgt Nambu]

I've cut my hair for many years, a simple buzz cut. Since I sleep with an apparatus on my head, if I have hair it's impossible to tame it the next AM. I like the complete no other care aspect of having it that short!
I don't get having difficulty trimming the back of the neck! I shave mine by placing my blade at the base and draw up until the rubber base contacts the hairline. It's easy to feel! Move over, repeat. I do the neck every time I shave, so if I miss a little I'll get it next time.

Cut my own hair? I wish. Due to shoulder neck issues for the last 3-4 years I can't get my arms/hands any where near where I'd need them to do that. Up until about 1995 I'd worn a ponytail since 1973, so yeah, I cut a couple inches off that from time to time. After I cut the tail off and started getting real haircuts I loved going to get "The Man Haircut". That's two different electric clippers, scissors, a good neck-suck with the vacuum, hot lather neck shave and a finish with the foo-foo juice and flapping of the towel! I don't go to the barber anymore due to psoriasis in my scalp though. Wifey does it for me now. But I really miss the traditional hair cut.

I don't get people paying $20.00 ++ for a cut and not getting the neck suck at a lot of the places? Then you're just wearing that cut hair around in your shirt.

havent had a haircut since 1969 and still have my hair

Almost cut my hair
Happened just the other day
It's gettin' kind of long
I could've said it was in my way

But I didn't and I wonder why
I feel like letting my freak flag fly
And I feel like I owe it, to someone, yeah

Must be because I had the flu this Christmas
And I'm not feeling up to par
And increases my paranoia
Like looking in my mirror and seeing a police car

But I'm not, I'm not giving in an inch to fear
'Cause I've promised myself this year
I feel oh, like I owe it,to someone

When I get myself together
I'm gonna get down in that sunny southern weather, yeah

I'm goin' find a space inside a laugh, yes
Separate the wheat from some chaff
I feel
Like I owe it, yeah, to someone

?
I've known guys that rode motorbikes without helmets or wore beanie helmets a lot and the wind would essentially kinda just break their hair off around their shoulders. no haircuts

Don't laugh... I've already heard all the jokes.
...I've been cutting my own hair since 1978 (yeah, that's almost 40 years), and I'm still using the same FlowBee that I bought way back then. Although I did breakdown and buy a set of replacement spacers last year.

Even at just 8 haircuts X $20ea X 40yrs = a savings of $6400...
....(that's a lot of ammo)

Well theres two flobee's still working out here (still using the same spacers though). wonder if there are any more?

Where I go there's a long line of older gentleman waiting for a certain young women to cut their hair. She's very sexy, personable, wears just the right amount of tight clothing and does a good job with what little there is to work with.
My wife says that I'm paying $20.00 for a lap dance that also comes with a free haircut.

See, now that sounds like it's worth doing...

This is in West Jordan Utah. That's not the same Utah I left in '83!

We should get a few investors together and start one in Oregon. after all, doesn't PDX boast having the most strip joints in the nation? We have Bikini Barista's? ??

well I do Harleys and my hair is half way down my back and never gets longer for the reason you just described

Just lean over the toilet and buzz it off. Dont do this drunk.

I must admit that I have been at least tempted for the last couple of years by a really nice barbershop here in Lewiston that is close by the shooting range I frequent. It has pool tables, pinball and a really nice man's clubby atmosphere and charges $15 dollars for a haircut, and....
....a beer!

Heh, awesome.
I kinda did it over a rug and then shook it out over the toilet.
I can see me graduating to that though.. save the drunk part and crying for after though. lol

You could hardly tell



If I don't shave my ear and nose hair for a month it gets close to this.

When I lived in Huntington Beach, I used to pay $25 for a scissors cut done by a forreal Playboy Playmate. Now I cut my own because of limited income. I use expensive clippers that I bought for use on our Bichon.

P.S. If your clippers don't work on yer dog, you gotta get a different head.

What's hair? I vaguely recall something used to keep my hats from sliding but again, it's pretty vague.

It's the stuff (I'm sure is on your back) that keeps your shirt from falling off.

Sounds like you have a good wife!
