I've been cutting my own for twenty years.In fact just yesterday I set my clippers on the shortest setting and let her rip.Andis clippers like the barber shops use are well worth the money. Exactly what I've done for 20+ years.

I’ve been a Wahl man for about 25 years.

I'd rather be a free man in my grave, than living as a puppet or a slave....

My wife made a run at it a few days ago. Works for me.

My wife has been doing mine for more than 10 years now. It depends on how much she likes you and whether she is mad at you or not. Don't let her do it if she is in bad mood. Results can vary

I got a haircut week before last so I’ll be ok for a couple more weeks. Don’t forget the stray nose and ear hairs. 😮

Been cutting my own for about 5 years. But I’m so thin up top that just give the whole head a #1 or #0.

Between getting old and chemo I lost a lot of hair a few years back but still have enough to look pretty scraggly if it's not cut. I got some clippers and my wife's been cutting mine for about 15 years. I get a buzz cut about every three or four weeks. Doesn't take much skill to cut and takes about five minutes. Clippers aren't that expensive. So far Wahl seems to be a good brand that stays sharp and cuts clean.

I’m gonna have to get a buzz before long. I like mine short, but it’s been a month.

Same as the past 25 years. Set of Wahl clippers. No spacer. Metal on skin. Peel it back to front. Then front to back. A little extra buzz around the ears. Done. Sweep up and take a shower. On my third set of $15 clippers. I think I'm getting my money's worth...
