I started keeping my hair "buzzed after I retired from the Army. I know, sounds wierd, but now I do it 'cause I want to. I don't shave it because it's to much work and my head is shaped kind of strange. I can buzz it about every 3 weeks and not worry about it. I let someone else do it since I'm barely coordinated enough to shave let alone cut my hair. Whatever you do, make sure Mrs. Andy is good with it 'cause you don't have to look at yourself, she has to look at you! Bottom line is, I haven't combed my hair in about 3 years! It's great!Paulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07270337983441303391noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5193860341876403275.post-20805253415151935232010-04-12T15:07:24.011-05:002010-04-12T15:07:24.011-05:00TD, Heh!

Oops, follically challenged, sorry. First is you shave it bald for summer, it will be cooler. As I tell people, bald is cool, especially in winter. Brrr. Of course you will want to get a sweat band for being outside if you don't wear a hat, cause there is nothing to slow down the sweat drops coming of the top. Also if you don't wear a hat use lots of sunblock. There is nothing worse than a burn on top of your head. It causes a bad headache for days. And you will be surprised how many times you run your hand on top of your head. Ouch. Remedy for a burnt head is vinegar. Pew!! Second. If people pick on you about your bald head you have to be familiar with all the good comebacks. 1. Hair is overated. 2. God created a few perfect heads and the rest he covered with hair. 3. You just wish you were aerodynamic. and this was for my youth group. 4. Oh yeah, remember in 2 Kings 2:23 where the youth were mocking Elisha and called him bald head? He called down 2 bears and they mauled them. Do you want me to call down a couple of bears on you?" That always got them to look in their bibles. haha. Ok, now that I have educated you on this, I think you should do it. Of course I might be a bit prejudice because I am bald.Darrellhttp://www.mygodsbeengood.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5193860341876403275.post-35514849833168439642010-04-12T09:00:34.839-05:002010-04-12T09:00:34.839-05:00Do it.Do it.Stacihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09853546274996763802noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5193860341876403275.post-63297949277879655642010-04-11T23:39:36.283-05:002010-04-11T23:39:36.283-05:00I do cut my own hair with an electric trimmer.

I just don't see any sense paying someone the same amount to cut my random patches of hair as they would to cut a full head of hair.<br /><br />I wouldn't mind paying them the same amount if they could make it look as good, but, well, that's just not gonna happen.

She has ALWAYS had a "thing" for bald guys...even when we were youngsters.<br /><br />Short of that, I'm going with a #2 clipper.

Advice: Shaving your head requires daily, or at least several times a week maintenance. That's why I settled on the short look. I can trim it down close about every two weeks, and can stretch it to three when I need to.<br /><br />Here's a link to the best trimmer I have found. I had been using it for my beard for years, but now I just use it on my head too. It is adjustable as to how short you want to go. I usually use the #2 setting. Anyway, it is like your Mantis.... until the battery wears out. Even then, you can replace the battery and they sell replacement blades as well.<br /><br />http://www.amazon.com/Panasonic-ER389K-Rechargeable-Mustache-Trimmer/dp/B00005JS5G/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=hpc&qid=1271020125&sr=8-1<br /><br />You are going to find out how the hair on your head grows. Different parts of your head will respond best to different angles of approach when cutting. It is weird at first, but then you get to know the lay of the forest.<br /><br />I can do the back of my head, but get better results when I enlist my wife to get the final touch up on the back.<br /><br />Good luck!Walthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12863303472292526368noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5193860341876403275.post-70681374344236640532010-04-11T15:05:42.896-05:002010-04-11T15:05:42.896-05:00A man that is bald in front is a thinker.

But a shaved head guy makes a statement! (Not sure exactly what the statement is, but...) I've been a shaver since the mid nineties. Two things: (1)Paul's right, you will need a hat for daytime excursions--I have a collection of them. And (2) if you don't shave it at least every third day, your head will stick to the pillow at night like velcro.Dapper Danhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01230099347154360809noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5193860341876403275.post-79161801180507755622010-04-11T08:44:41.911-05:002010-04-11T08:44:41.911-05:00I actually gro-ed my hair out to give to the cance...I actually gro-ed my hair out to give to the cancer kids and found out that they do not take gray hair at all, Paul FAIL. Plus it has to be eight inches long. IF you do shave your head, then you are going to have to wear a hat everywhere, you know how hot hats are in our summers, soooooooo.<br /><br />My family has our own wailing walk for the dogs, too. Since my grandfather named every single dog he ever had, "Joe," things get kinda confusing. You can imagine, "Okay, which Joe did we bury here? Was it the one that walked sideways or was it the one that had his teeth knocked out by the brick?" Really.Paul Mitchellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07825674914008378242noreply@blogger.com
