Hairclippers? One for the baldies
That means JJ Irani, Sleddog, myself and I'm sure a lot more
What do you use to shave or cut your last few strands of hair? I use a £14 electric Phillips shaver but need something better...

I've paid fortunes for 'proffessional' clippers over the years mate but for ease of use this cordless Philips can't be beaten!
Half price at Argos at the mo' too....... http://www.argos.co.uk/static/Produc...er/4426051.htm

I dont know...I like the cheap plug in models. I get my lady to trim me down with a # 1 every couple of weeks. It has saved me hundreds of dollars by now. On my second set in about 8 years now.
Total investment under 30.00.

I have an old Wahl Designer...about 15yrs old. As brushpup mentioned, I have saved a lot of $$$ by doing it myself. I can shave my head with my eyes closed in less than 5min at this point! LOL!

The only thing that my wife has done is to check my haircut and tell me where I missed.
One day she was mad at me and didn't tell me before we went out and she showed everyone the strip of hair that I missed,everyone laughed but me!!

To tell you the truth. I've long passed the clippers stage. Strickly a razor shave now, as I don't allow it to even reach any real length. Nothing like a nice smooth bald head! Quote:
Sorry Raf, I had a good laugh at that one to!!

I used to shave many many many years ago and used Wahl Baldfader http://www.thegoodstore.com.au/d196-...dfader-shaver/ until I realised most people shave to hide the fact that they are balding so why do I want to give people the impression that I am balding LOL At one point I was asking myself if there is a trick to shaving since I would have to shave every 4 to 5 days to have that blad look which is tiring, little did I know the 'trick' is to have alopecia TBH I am glad you guys shave as there is nothing worst looking than a balder doing the comb over trick!
I bought the Baldfader mainly because it looks cool and has a nice red body. I have no idea where it is now. When I was using it I would go over with a Gillette after the Baldfader. |
