How do you trim your hair?
« on: July 28, 2006, 12:53:40 PM »
Before I went completely bald, I used to trim my head with clippers. I started by using a clipper that had different guards.  I eventually went to a professional clipper made by Andis.  Though, this razor did not have the guards.  Instead it had an adjustable blade.

What are you using to trim your hair?

I have a real nice CONAIR® full clipper set with cape and all, that mostly I use on my 8 yr old lil guy, who like the crew cut, hehe, not-so-much needed here anymore... unless I get lazy for a couple weeks and the wife says "Honey, you really need to shave your head."   lol ouch!    :D

I've got a little cheapy clipper I use to trim the goatee and mustache. Picked them up at Wal-Mart for about $15 including guards and accessories and stuff. It runs on two AA batteries and I change them about every 4-6 months. Depends on how much use they see.

Wahl Designer.  Have had it for 7 or 8 years now to keep my beard or goatee in check ("long" #1 guard).  Also to keep the hair short (#3 on the sides - #4 on top).   Will use it on "short" setting, no guard, in preparation for the Headblade chromedome shave.

Latha math dhut, Brother!

Great having you with us. I like the Irish - solid drinkers. Hung out with some of
them to learn how to drink and how to keep my liquor. But I couldn't keep up with them...

You're not going to make me drink any more, are you?

Again, welcome to the forum! Looking forward to reading your posts.

Thanks wpruitt, ar3inc & happyharry, nice to 'meet' you all.   :)

happyharry, wrong Gaelic but close enough :)  That's Scottish Gaelic I believe. In Irish we'd simply say "dia dhuit".  Nice gesture, go raibh maith agat (thanks).

Oh my god, that was a huge faux pas. That's French, meaning, I screwed up.
