marcicat | fun with clippers (Reply)

[*Bonus fact: I thought it would be interesting to know why we call clippers “clippers,” like it’s plural. Then I realized that’s not universal, and is probably just me using the word wrong. It is not going to stop me.]

So I have clippers now! I have now used them one (1) time, so I feel perfectly justified in sharing my extremely limited brand new knowledge.

*I thought cutting my hair with scissors (done while my hair is wet) was messy. Cutting hair with clippers (done while my hair is dry) is So Much Messier! Should have gotten the vacuum out BEFORE I started.

*It’s fast, though. Like, damn.

*And FUN. Wow. It was a little bit “Lucy and the Christmas tree” there for a while.

*Ears are harder than I thought they would be. (Even with the special “ear guard” attachments.) The glasses present a challenge. They’re totally in the way, but on the other hand, not sure I want to do it blind, either.

*The back of the neck is a LOT easier with clippers than scissors. A LOT.
