Will let you know waiting for clippers to arrive mine is normally 3 on sides and back and trim on top may end up self isolating for longer than anticipated while it grows out

No. I'm O.K for a while yet.

Your not alone I did myself last week, Angela did her own and looks fine

My wife has wanted to try cutting my hair for almost as long (decades) as we've known each other.

To date, I've always refused but she's got hold of some clippers and it's looking like she's going to have her chance at last.

Anybody have any tips for using clippers? I'm thinking that the No. 4 or 5 spacer should be about right. I'm hoping to end up (a) looking tidy and (b) with both ears still intact.

Start off with a higher number guard first chuck don't let he go straight in with a 4 mate it will come out more even that way , and oil the clippers up before hand . best of luck kop

I've reduced the guards to minimal.
No1 on the sides & No2 on the top.
Although there's a patch that a razor wouldn't remove hair from!

Not yet but I can see it coming

Should we all not just let our hair and beards keep growing, using this crisis as an excuse to all look like hippies and annoy our partners?

Social distancing will mean no hairdressers will be safe to open for perhaps at least 6 months I assume.

Even worse, - how are we going to get our Back, Sack and Crack done now that everywhere is shut down?

Cut my own hair with clippers with no guard for years. Ever since the time I went to the barbers and they said they would only charge me half price.

Back, sack & crack? Never heard of one? What’s that then?

This happened to my father-in-law once (mother-in-law cut his hair for the 1st and last time ) black shoe polish was used to hide the "hack" up......
