    I started because I’m a frugal bastard whose trust issues lead him to not instantly put a lot of confidence in a barber or stylist. Eventually I got good enough at it for my own purposes that nobody can tell the difference.

    Y’all don’t want to use the quarter-inch comb, by the way. Leaves things so short that it makes it too evident that your hair just got trimmed. Stop at a half-inch, unless you’re a U.S. Marine or Admiral Picard. Also, Wahl makes a 1½-inch comb and you can also find a 2-inch comb, so you don’t have to have a total buzzcut.

    Upside: Over the years I've saved thousands of dollars on haircuts.

    Downside: I look like a sadistic 19th century jailer.

    Whatever else on my body is going to hell, I still have plenty of hair, so I may just say the hell with it and go full shoulder length mullet again.

    All y'all cowards cutting your hair during this time. Bah!

    My 'fro is getting pretty damn majestic right now and the beard is back to deer season length. My hair is so long (I needed a cut before all this started) that I jokingly wore a top knot - not a man bun! - on our daily lunchtime walk around the neighborhood. Our daughter was suitably mortified and worried somebody would see us.

    I hear you. We’ve taken a big step back as a country over the last several years and it’s going to take a lot of work, not simply getting Trump out, to return to “normal,” if that even exists anymore. So, even if Biden and all his flaws are elected, which I think is still a real question, that cannot be the end of it. We’re so backward that simply not being a national embarrassment shouldn’t be the bar.

    I started skinning my head about 15 years ago when haircuts went from $6 to $7. I wasn't paying $7 for a haircut twice a month.
    I trim my goatee, and my wife does the haircut on the front porch.
    I look like Edward Norton in American History X minus the white trash tattoos and the muscles ... definitely minus the muscles.

    My wife trimmed my shaggy hair a couple of weeks ago, and it looks better — but nothing like what my barber does.

    Years ago, Mom cut my ear while trimming my hair, and now I don't let her near the scissors.

    I've decided I'm just going to grow the fucker out and donate it when this trial is over.

    I haven't had long hair since 10th grade.
