Hi wiggy.... yep, I was feeling the same / daunting situation to be leaving the `comfort zone`of the hair-club.....now I only regret not leaving it sooner !! The flowbee thing you refer to [ just for anyone who`s not aware of them] ...it looks like a hairdryer but it cuts the hair and suctions the cut hairs off the head.....that thing would be the kiddie for getting a nice even cut without ` gaps`...there are a few videos here [ they get off to a slow start ! ] but there are links there to where you can buy them for anyone who`s living miles from a barber and wants to try `do it yourself` http://www.google.ie/search?rlz=1C1RNPN_...tter+video
The best video is of michigan baldie using one ...hope that `s of interest to newbies. Paul.
