Oops. How'd I miss that? I think my "Child of the 80's" card just got revoked! How embarrassing.

I did mine today with my clippers and scissors. I went slow ... real slow.
I used the 1/2" guard up the sides and back, tapering down to the finest guard, and the scissors above that and on the top. Overall, it's not too bad. It took a couple of hours.

I found both of these helpful:

I haven't had a haircut in more than 4 months. I see no reason to change course.

I took my beard trimmer and gave myself a buzz cut.

Hair's a bit bushy, beard's a bit bushy.

He announced that he's going to use my buzzer for his first home haircut today.

If it turns out really poorly, I'll be back with pics.

Bad news.

He asked me to do the deed.

Worse news.

It turned out well, so no pics.

Mine's not quite that long, but it's wavy gravy and therefore different every minute - drives me crazy. So, I bought this fancy clipper setup - pretty much anything I could possibly need with plenty of horsepower (well, I mean, it's not exactly like a weed whacker - BUT CLOSE!)...and so far, I haven't had the cajones to use it!

Maybe after a couple of G&Ts. Or, maybe I should rethink that.....

OK - So I bought these clippers with way too many attachments and blades - just to make sure - and then I looked at all this stuff in the box for a >week before I had the nerve to try it out.....until last night. And here we are...
