So I have a date tomorrow night with a pretty good looking girl (pic at the bottom of this post) so I decide to cut my hair. So I pull out the clippers, oil the blades, and put on the #3 guard. I make 1 pass down the middle of my head and then the buzzing stops.. So I am like :ovoh: and then :beek:. So I check the outlet to see if it tripped. Nope. So I turn the little screw thing to adjust the motor. Still nothing. Now I am like :no::no::no:. The darn clippers wont work. A sniff test reviles the smell of burnt electronics. So I throw on a hat and head to wally world. They are out of the cheepys so I just come home and decide to do some research on the other brands they have so I don't spend $30-$40 on another POS.

So tonight I am rocking the reverse mohawk. (not going to get a pic so don't ask lol) My date is tomorrow at 6. Were going to a baseball game and then to a bar to shoot some pool and throw some darts while consuming fermented barley and hops. I hope I can find a decent set of clippers tonight and buy them tomorrow. If not I may just have to break down and spend the $20 on a real hair cut.

So for those of you who cut your own hair what clippers do you use?























oh yea the pic of the girl. (photo problem fixed. Facebook is being screwy tonight.)
photos removed



and thats all you get until I see where this goes. :D

Not bad, though I'm more into brunettes :)

Anyways, we have Oster clippers, haven't had a problem yet. That's the brand my mom use on her horses as well.

I think this thread was created more for bragging than for advice on clippers. ;)

I don't own any clippers, I just have my friends cut my hair. Its usually... pretty... interesting... probably shouldn't let them do that anymore now that I think about it. Meh, free is free. lol

Honestly it is about the clippers. I have OCD when it comes to my appearance. I'm the guy who gels his hair until its hard as a rock, always wears polo's and khakis pants. This hair thing is killing me even though I am in my own home where no one can see me.

I just went and bought a $30 whal pair. They cut my hair like it was butter. I did not even have to adjust them before hand. I bought them because they have a 1 year warranty and the blades can be purchased at the local beauty supply shop. So my hair is back to 3/8" long with tapered sides. Now all I have to do is be myself tonight and maybe I will get a second date.

Well the date went well. We went to a baseball game and then to a local coffee shop and just talked for about a hour and a half. Scored a second date and a kiss. So I guess my loosing streak is over. :D

On another note I got an email from my hosting service telling me that they have added 5 more mySQL databases to my account and reduced my montly hosting fee by $1.50. This came after an email I sent to them explaining that I was going to be leaving next month because of their lack of databases and higher fees than the competition. So I am installing Joomla now and hopefully I can figure this CMS thing out and get my site back to where I want it.

Yes but in a place where she knows it is. I just started dating this girl. It might be a little weird if I say "oh btw I posted several photos of you , one in a bikini on a message board to brag to a bunch of guys I have never met." Yea thats the trick to scoring a second date.
