Here are a few things that you should know about cutting your hair after the place you go to get your hair cut is in quarantine mode:

#1. Do not cut your own hair.
   2. Order a Flowbee like I just did.

    The difference between a good haircut and a bad one is just a matter of time! :) 

    A stylish hat not only protects your eyes and face from the sun, it also covers up a bad haircut!

    My wife bought one of those stupid flowbees at a yard sale a few years. I let her try cutting my hair with it. Piece of junk that just pulls your hair. Into the garbage it went. I have a set of Wahl Clippers and let her cut my hair yesterday as there are no barber shops open. She did a good job and it will have to suffice for now.

    I use a pair of clippers and a # 4 and just buzz it all off and clean up around the back of the neck and ears, who cares what I look like I've been married 39 years and have no intention of entering a beauty contest! I have saved a few hundred bucks since I started doing that.
    Why don't we go to school and work on the weekends and take the week off!

    We’ve used our flowbee for over 15 years!  Love it and with $10 haircuts we’ve saved thousands!

    No. 2 all over, trim around the ears and the back of the neck.

    5 minutes every 2 weeks in my own bathroom.  Spent $ 30.00 on a Wahl kit 15(?) years ago.  Around 400 haircuts for $ 30.00.  Not a bad deal, plus all of the time saved in going to a barber shop.

    I used to wear shoulder length hair in the 70's....I think I will just let mine grow.

    I'm afraid if I let my hair grow to shoulder length, my bald spot on top would get stretch marks.
    LOL
    We have a small Wahl and wife has sharp scissors or if worse becomes worst, we have roaching shears and sheep shears

    I had to go across state lines for a cut.

    Some will die in hot pursuit
    And fiery auto crashes
    Some will die in hot pursuit
    While sifting through my ashes
    Some will fall in love with life
    And drink it from a fountain
    That is pouring like an avalanche
    Coming down the mountain

    I've been cutting my hair for years, just snap a 1/2 guard on and done in a few minutes.

     I've had mine about six years and like it.
     Use it twice a month April through September. As for the rest of the year, winter coat. 
     Probably part'a the reason I'm still single.

    When you get my age and let the hair and beard grow out,it looks like gray straw sticking out of your head.

    I am enjoying this thread.
    First of all, we need photos of these hair cuts.

    I have been cutting my own hair for years, course, I am nearly blind in one eye, so I always have one good side.

    I know this is off subject, and I will do it no justice, but years ago when we had a Shih TZU; the wife's dog. She slipped up and told me what it cost for a trim job.
    I told my son, WE are going to can cut his hair; How hard can it be !
    We when to Wal-Mart, got the trimmer and waited for the wife to leave.

    I had my son hold the victim in place while I was working on my trim plan.
    Son: Dad do you know what your doing, (Tone in his voice) - NO YOU HAVE NO IDEAL WHAT YOU ARE DOING.
    Me: Can't be any different than cutting the grass, (INNER Voice) - YOU'RE RIGHT, I have no ideal what I am doing
    Dog: ( Growling Voice) - Just wait till I can get my head loose so I can bite the S**T out of both of you A**H*8*s
    The only way that you could tell which end was his head was to toss him a treat

    I've been shaving my head for quite a while. This winter I decided to let it grow out a bit. What I have discovered is that I may not have to shave my head much longer.
