    Where did the neck guard come from?
    I have been using clippers and asking for help with the neck.

    I want a neck guard.

    And they said that it would be a waste for you to go to barbering school. :(

    I cut sections of it when they stick out WAY over the rest. For this problem, I love the sign at my barbershop-We Repair Homemade Haircuts.

    While I was studying, money was definitely nothing I had excess of. The closet in the bathroom had mirrors inside the doors, so I took a comb, scissors and openend both doors so I could see behind my head and I went to work. After that I cut my own hair until I got married. Then my wife took over the hair cutting.

    Nowadays I only cut my own hair if my wife has not had time to do it.

    I do. My wife shaves my neck.

    My longtime barber passed away about 10 years ago. I'd been going to him since I was under 2 years of age. When he died, I bought a cheap cordless clipper and got after it. Now, I don't even bother with the clippers, except to clear out the hair in my nose and ears. DE every few days and I am good to go.

    I cut my own hair for many years. But I have been shaving it for about 4 years now.

    Just buzzed my hair last night. Wahl clippers, everything except the top with 1/4" attachment, then the top itself with 1/2". Wife straightened the back. Said it before and will say it again...saves me well over $100 a year, though do go in annually (or so) to get it overhauled by a barber.

    I cut my own hair for years. I recently decided to grow it out so I have been going to the barbershop to get it trimmed. I also have my GF trim up the back of my neck with clippers in between haircuts.

    Its been home haircuts for 10+ years for me. Ive got a cheapo Walmart trimmer which I use with the 3/8" attachment. The wife has become my barber.

    $25 for the works? How's the straight shave?

    It is technically a shavette due to State regs, but Vinny and Doug wield it with pretty good skill. Hot towel, prep, and all the little extras.

    Fun place.
