I've gone through a ton of cheap clippers [$15-20 USD range] in my days. They are loud, get super hot, vibrate way too much and break too easily. If you plan to cut your own hair, good clippers are an investment. I currently have a set of Remington clippers. Not sure which model.

Just take the price of the clippers and divide that by how much a haircut costs at the barber shop or salon. You will see that they are a good investment.

I used to do a buzz cut, but can do basically any kind of fade now. I usually use 3 mirrors and can even edge up the back by myself. I don't use balding clippers, so I edge it up with a razor. If I f*ck up, I can always just revert to the buzz cut.

Last night, standing at a crosswalk.
Woman appoaches - not much more than 4 feet in height with some missing teeth.

Her (loudly, in the general direction of the crossing light): “Hurry up! I’m old! I haven’t got time for this!”

Me (laughing): “You’re old?”

Her: “I sure am! I’m 96. I’m a veteran of the World War and I can swear in 3 languages!”

Me (uncontrollably laughing): “Well, I hope you have a good evening.”

Her: God bless you dear. I’m planning on doing just that.”

Agree with it all mate. Mine are Wahl, had them for about five years now and they cost £60 I think. I also use them for beard trimming. Great investment.

Just calling a spade a spade.

No cash, but I'll leave you my collection of knives, which just grew nicely with the addition of one of these.

Can confirm. I just went through 2 weeks of hell. Being able to trust your farts is way underrated.

Just got off a ten hour shift and I'm weighing being too tired to shower on one hand and being able to smell me feet almost six feet away on the other.

Have a shower, and when you come out put talcum powder on your feet.
