Shaving your own head

[cloggypop]

Had these for about three years. They're noticeably better than the £10-£30 jobs, and supposedly last for ages as long you look after them.

Probably good but I think my Wahl Super Tapers were cheaper. Loads of proper barbers use them so worth a look when your ones get to the end of their life.

Funny you should say that, it was a barber that recommended my set, too. He reckons I'll get 10 years out of them no problem. I paid £50 I think, and at the time it seemed expensive, but if they last that long it's a bargain really.

I’ve got that round babyliss one and think it’s great. Echo the point about charging it though. When the charge starts to go it starts pulling rather than cutting

You can probably buy replacement blades for that one as well then. Well worth paying the extra for something with a decent motor that will last you years. Just oil the blades occasionally and make sure it's brushed after use. No point in buying a cheap one really.

Yeah I don't wanna go too short, probably a two all over ideally.

That’s how we all started. I give you six months before you have a full bone head.

Yep grade 1/2 every time for me.

0.5 sides and 1.5 top of my head every week. My hair is way too thick if I ever let it grow. Wouldn't mind going bald at all,but genetics won't let me.

How do you blend it yourself? Does it look alright?

I think it looks ok,but then I'm too old to give a fuck even if it looks ridiculous.

As for blending it,I also have a beard trimmer thingy which helps with the different lengths.

Are you bald, Tone?

I'm still hanging on in there, Vlad. Well, just about, like. I've receded a fair bit now and my hair is noticeably quite a bit thinner than it was. I used to Bic it to the bone in the late 90s and had a number one for about 2 or 3 years earlier this decade. I fear it won't be too long before I'm forced to do so again.

Celebrate your baldness/receding hairline.
