    I've always maintained that everyone - man, woman and other - should have a shaved head at least once in their life. The sense of liberation it gives is extraordinary, it really can't be described. Plus, your scalp suddenly feels sensitive so that things like the sensation of water falling on your head becomes oddly low-key pleasurable.

      @@andrewhernandez6395 ​Only one way to find out! Everyone I've ever met who I've spoken to about it has the same worry beforehand though, and I think there are very, very few people who don't look fine with it. Some may look better with long hair of course but that's not the same as looking bad with short, and many others look very good indeed with a buzzcut. Try it, you may never look back.

    Been doing this for last 20 years. The best "pro-tip" which isn't mentioned here for someone to do this alone, is to stand in front of a medicine cabinet with a mirror and open the doors so you can see as far around the sides/back of your head as possible. By adjusting the doors and turning your head you can literally see 95% of what's going on instead of guessing/trying by feel.

    They all look better after the cut. I've been doing this myself since the beginning of the pandemic and it gets easier every time. I do #4 on top, then a section below that 3, lower 2 and bottom hairline 1. And when there is a bit of an edge between the sections I take the low number guard and pull the lever so the clippers move back, giving it a tiny bit more length, and go over that. Tadaaa smooth transition.

    I've been cutting my own hair for almost 30 years. Electric clippers only, no guard, and a quick pass with the disposable razor on the back of the neck. Mirrors are your best friend during the process, while hoodies and beanies are good after (sometimes, your head gets cold). To the list of required items, I recommend a small screwdriver to remove your clipper head for post-buzz cleaning. Three or four tiny drops of the provided oil are all you need on the metal underside to reduce friction. Good luck to you all!

    I started doing this about 30 years ago and never looked back. Probably saved $ four figures by not going to a barber all that time. Also, long hair seems to pick up dirt so fast. Short always feels cleaner and is easier to clean. I give myself a sort of softened jar-head cut. I started off using a mirror and trimming a straight edge in back, which was the hardest part, but gave that up years ago. Now I just use a close cutting guard and let it feather along the natural hairline --by feel, no mirror needed.

I removed nearly a meter of length, down to a 1.3 cm buzz.

    one of the things i learned while shaving my head is DON'T WEAR YOUR REGULAR CLOTHES! when i shaved my hair for the first time, i was wearing one of my regular t-shirts and these little short hairs that fell down on it are still in it, a few years later! they just got stuck in the fabric and i can't get them out. they feel really annoying as well, i can barely see them but they sting in a really annoying fashion. so wear a cape or a shirt that you dont care about!!

      I know I’m late, but here’s what might help.
      1. Fill up tub of HOT WATER.
      2. Get washing detergent, fabric softer if you want.
      3. Soak clothes the water for 30 minutes.
      Keep clothes in water and begin scrubbing the fabric together.
      After that, rinse with cool water. That should help!

    I started with a buzzcut about a month ago after a bald patch was found behind my left ear. I told them MATCH the PATCH... then I bought my own clippers and have only used the no 1 size and left the hair on top long... I've gotten several compliments since. I'm very happy with it...

      same here, having usually slightly longer hair but was curious how I would look like bald so I shaved down to the skin one day. I love how it looks and feels. Moreover my friends like it and my girlfriend asks me to keep it since she thinks I look more attractive. Guess I will be bald for a longer period of time.

    This video inspired me to buzz my own head and I love the feeling of it buzzed short! I let the top grow more now but every couple of months or so I go down to a full buzz just to keep the length short. (My hair grows really fast, which is why I've never been able to keep a short haircut despite loving them)

    I buzzed my head a few days ago. Just watching this as a confidence boost. Although I did kinda hope for some actual shaving advice for the head. Like with a razor, you know. Anyway, I buzzed my hair off with zero guard first, then shaved the stubble in the shower. It was very liberating! However, the stubble I get a day or so after shaving clings onto the fabric really hard in hats and hoods, like velcro! Any advice on how to deal with that? It's really annoying. I moisturise daily, but it doesn't seem to be helping.

      You can also do a normal cut. Think of your head as a box, wet it, and start with a higher number on the sides, and go one number down a number for every inch, 3 different lengths in total, which will blend it in, then do the higher number at the top of your head. Then take a pair of scissors and a comb and do a little bit of random snipping on the top which will add some texture, and then trim your fringe.
