Senior Member YoungGuy Posted January 30, 2007 Senior Member Share Posted January 30, 2007 This is a silly question, but I never really did this before. What do I buzz my hair with? I'd imagine a beard trimmer won't do the job! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member HK500 Posted January 30, 2007 Senior Member Share Posted January 30, 2007 Call any clinic which requires shaving the recipient area, like Hasson & Wong, Joetronic should know.

Bill - Seemiller Posted January 30, 2007 Share Posted January 30, 2007 I'm not sure I understand the question...or the answer is too easy...lol. If you are shaving your own head, try hair clippers . If you are getting your head shaved for an HT, the clinic will do it for you...again, with hair clippers Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member YoungGuy Posted January 30, 2007 Author Senior Member Share Posted January 30, 2007 Hah, yeah, I guess it was too easy - hair clippers it is Believe or not, I've never heard the term before (honest!) and just didn't know what the silly implement was called. ... ya, I feel foolish hehe.

Bill - Seemiller Posted January 30, 2007 Share Posted January 30, 2007 LOL Younguy...no worries my friend. I suppose if one is used to wearing their hair longer, they never really used hair clippers. I just happen to own a pair...you can probably buy a decent pair for about $20 (US), maybe less...and do it yourself or have a friend do it - if that's your goal that is. I cut my own hair now and even blend into the top. Been sporting a 2 clip sides and back into a 3 or 4 clip on the top. I'll grow it longer once more results come forth, but in the meantime...keeping it short is nice...plus, don't have to pay for a haircut. I haven't paid for a haircut in over a year and a half Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member hairbank Posted January 30, 2007 Senior Member Share Posted January 30, 2007 I'm with ya Bill, been cuttin' my own hair for probably the last 6-8 years or so..........ever since I got too bald to care as much. Now, I have to admit, since HT #2 I've let my hair grow out quite a bit and am thinking of going to a stylist for the first time in probably 15 years (when I did used to get a hair cut, I went to the barber and got just that, a "haircut"). Anyhow, back on thread......YoungGuy, yes, hair clippers. As Bill said, they come with differen #'d clips to put on the head, I believe a #4 is 1/2", #3 is 3/8..........my set will take it down to 1/8" or all the way up to 1". I believe some sets have up to a 2" clip. If you have a HT they just buzz it down with no clip!

Senior Member the B spot Posted January 30, 2007 Senior Member Share Posted January 30, 2007 HAHA You Guys!!!!!!!! We get so many HT questions we can't answer a hair clipper question? Even when we used to buzz down during our "I'll just shave it off and rock the Mr. Clean look?" LOL!!!!!! Anyway, I have tried 6-7 different types of clippers, and ALL of them last about the same time (12-18 months) before the blades dull. IMO, the best cost to value company is Conair. I have purchased the 25 pc kit and the Infini Kit--- the kit for 39.99 is as good as anything I have purchased for more money. Follow this link---- http://www.conair-store.com/product_list.asp?SKW=HAIRGROOMHAIR&HDR=GROOMING to order online, or visit WalMart, K-Mart, Target, etc... and pick one up there. Hope this answers your questions!!!!!!! Fun Thread!!!!!!
