          When you guys say "hair" I thought you meant, like, HAIR. Lots, thick, John Travolta when young, HAIR.

          You are making a mistake. If you wait, soon the plaid sportscoats will come back into style, bell bottoms, platform shoes. It's just around the corner, and now you went and cut your hair. Boy, are you all gonna stand out. Square, man!!

              Cut my own hair today.

              Not bad from the front. I can't really see the back, so probably not great.

                I thought about it last night but stepped away from the scissors. Jealous of all the bald dudes who have no issue with zoom video calls now. They are having their moment.

                I will be sharing this with hubby. He's not completely bald, just some hair around the sides. I use an electric clipper on him. We've been doing that for a while now.

                  I generally cut my own but my wife helped me a few days ago due to my hand injury. It looks amazing as always.

                    Jon, maybe you should ask your wife to even it out a bit. Otherwise....it looks great.

                        How funny, I finally cut my own hair today too. Just used clippers and hair guards #3, 6, and 8. It didn't turn out so bad, but I definitely would prefer not doing that each time. Heck, the hair cleanup alone was a PITA!

                          Oh if it matters, this is how I got my clippers:

                          • Bought trimmer set at grocery store, didn't come with hair guards necessary
                          • Bought hair guards on amazon, didn't fit the trimmer I bought
                          • Tried returning trimmer, no refunds allowed at this time
                          • Bought clippers on amazon that was supposed to work with the hair guards, they lied
                          • Amazon issued full refund for those clippers since they would not accept a return
                          • Ordered a pair of clippers (with hair guards!) from JCPenney, order ended up auto-canceling a few days later
                          • Ordered the same pair of clippers from Conair directly, they arrived yesterday.

                                  Copper I’m glad you’re here to remind me that you play golf every day (I wish I could) and have clippers at your local Target (wish I did).

                                    Yeah. Thinking of moving it to my back porch next time. Still would sweep it up, but wouldn’t worry so much about the little stuff I missed.

                                      I use a pair of scissors I also use to open Amazon packages and cases of chicken fillets.

                                      Just kidding. I of course use a box cutter for the Amazon packages.

                                      Please love yourself.

                                          I’ve been cutting my own hair for years. My method is to remove the bath mat, take the dyson stick vac in with me, strip down and just vacuum it all up before getting in the shower. I don’t let it fall into the sink.

                                          If you need to wet your hair to get an even cut, then it doesn’t work.
