I didn't think Flowbee's were still available - I've been wanting to get one for a few years now.

I used to get my hair cut (basic .mil style cut, nothing fancy) on base (USAF), paying $10.75+tip each time. About 2 years ago I bought a Wahl "Deluxe" trimmer for ~$25 and started cutting my own hair, with my wife performing the little clean up/evening out the back. It takes me about twice as long as it did the professional barber, but I don't have to sit and wait for the barber to come available first. Neither my wife or I can honestly see any difference in the haircuts I give myself from what the pro used to give me. Of course, when you're mostly bald, it's easy enough to do.
