Been doing my own for the past 30 years. Used to be every Saturday. Now every other Saturday. On my third set of Walmart clippers. $15 IIRC? Less than 10 minutes start to finish including sweeping the floor. Time and money well spent.

That did it, have not been back to a barber shop since.
Only difference between a good hair cut and a bad one, is two weeks anyhow

guilty. $17 bux for a haircut is BS.. I bought a hair shears and chop off my own.. I've already saved about $75 over the last year... When I was in Jr. High a haircut was $.50.... Adults were $.75..

A $10 haircut every 4-6 weeks is such a burden.

My haircuts cost a little more, but the gal is good, cute and has a nice rack.

During the scamdemic barber shops were closed so I bought a clipper kit online and learned. The back is the tricky spot but I hang a mirror behind me and it actually looks pretty good. Takes me about 15 - 20 minutes. The clipper kit has more than paid for itself and I don't have to go anywhere... Sorry I didn't start sooner.


I sure could go for some $2.50/gal gas and a mean tweet!

Did when I was in college (early 90’s), still in Army reserves so was similar to a high and tight. Started again during Covid, but I wear it a little longer now, still cut it every 2 weeks. I use a 1 on sides and back, 2 on top but leave it a little longer in front, hardest part is blending the different lengths - still faster than driving to a barber and back along with saving $25! Ladies at work were surprised when I told em I was doing it myself so must not be too bad. That and my wife would make me go somewhere if it wasn’t alright.

I worked with a guy that cut his own hair. It looked it too. The funny part this guy was loaded with money. Been single most of his life. Managment position with a large tech company. Looked like he put a bowl on his head and cut around it.


Thanks, Billy

I do. Couldn’t get it done during the shutdown, so I did it with an electric trimmer. #5 guide all over, then #3 or 4 on the sides. Turns out much more convenient than going back to the shop for it.

Prices of haircuts have been insane lately. I cringe taking my son.
