Thanks for the feedback. I will try your haircut next time. What kind of hair clipper did you use? They should last longer then 6-7 years. I like corded machines, because they are more reliable and have more power. Hard to replace batteries as well.
Yesterday I did my haircut. Looks good. But I used the #1 guard on one of my MOSER 1400.
By the way, one of my
Moser 1400 I believe I have used +8 years now. I know people that have had these type of clippers 20+ years, or even 40 years.
I don't want talk about this further because I'm afraid it will be classified as advertisements.
The oldest one I own I have even taken apart fully and cleaned everything + replaced the blades, they are really simple in their construction.
A really cheap hair clipper that will last a lifetime, but you can't trust the lever on the side, but I don't use that so I'm good.
I did destroy the mechanism by putting lubrication inside, so a gear/cog was slipping against a metal spring-blade. There are replacment parts as well.
I'm getting kind of nerdy with this stuff. I'm so happy when things I buy last a really long time.

I hate to waste money.
Yes! Cutting the hair yourself is the way to go.
My haircut is practically free at this point in time.
