Flowbee Haircutting System - DIY Home Hair Trimmer for Self Haircuts | Professional Hair Cutting Machine with Mini Vacuum (Sold Separately) | Perfect for Home Grooming, Salon-Quality Cuts & Travel Convenience

OK....I gotta admit..... at first I was very leery about trying this product. I thought for SURE I was going to get into a hair cut and screw things up..or that it wouldn't look as good as your typical salon hair cut. Well...after all the horrible hair cuts I've had, and then having to leave a tip for that person who screwed things up on TOP of that...I was just done. I figured..Heck...I can do that bad all by myself. And not only that...if I DID screw it up...It would only take a short time to grow out. And the money I'll be saving is a huge plus. Do it when you want...how you want....and ....well...what's not to love about this thing? You do it when you want...how you want....where you want..and it's FREE every time. IT pays for itself quickly...and then its just gravy.I've tried practically every place and every stylist in this town and they all just didn't get it. They just didn't know how to cut hair for some reason....or at least understand the look I was going for. That's the hard part. Even if you get a talented hair trimmer...they may still not get the vision. This is how it is when you're making music. Some people just don't see the vision or know the sound you want. You may give them the best examples of what you mean...but if they don't get it and have it to begin with...no amount of words is going to help. The hair stylists style is HUGE...HOW they do what they do. And how well can they create that style they have. Some get it...but don't know how to replicate it. Some might be able to make the look because they know what you want...but they CAN'T get you that look..because they don't know how.Well...I had a GREAT hair stylist...but they moved to the other end of the state and I was left looking and looking. I did that for a long time until I finally got home one day after a bad cut...once again....and I thought. "Hell....I can give myself a hair cut THIS BAD FOR FREE!!" That's when My buddy heard about my ordeal and all the hell I'd been through and ordered this unit for me for Christmas. Well...needless to say this thing is KICK ASS! I busted out a rockin hair cut the FIRST TIME in short order and it looked SERIOUSLY GOOD! FOR REAL! I was laughing the whole time because I thought..."People are going to crack up when they find out I did this myself" And then I got to thinking...."Why do we think it's so weird to cut our own hair...make it look better than any other person could...and save ourselves tons of money in the process?" Well..the truth is we're taught that it's nerdy or weird to cut our own hair....and we never think to do something other people don't do. Well...I won't allow other people to tell me what I can and can't do...so ...it's FLOBEE TIME!! lol. And the truth is...it's because they CAN'T cut their own hair and save time and money so they think people who do are a bit strange. Well...now anyone can cut their own hair...make it look great...and save time and money with this thing.What I will say is this unit does have very fragile extensions to lengthen how far it keeps the blades away from cutting your hair. I accidentally dropped mine and popped one on the "fans" on the lowest extension so I wrote Flowbee up and they sent me a set of new ones so I'm all covered. I also super glued the one that cracked and was able to save it as well so I'm more than covered. But you should think about buying the extra set of extensions so you're all set if one or two decide to break.But other than that...hook it up to your vacuum and away you go. You can't do it wrong...and if you do...you'll perfect it as you go. There is somewhat of a learning curve. And what I mean by that is the more you cut your hair the more you'll dial things into the way you want them and get a better grip on how it works. But having said that...even on your first time it'll come out great. Its MORE than paid for itself at this point and I'll never go back. Now I wonder how I EVER paid all that money to simply wait in long lines to get bad haircuts. Now my hair looks better than it ever has because I know what I want and I know how to get it done. WITH MY FLOWBEE! I have a process I go through that gets me a rockin look every time. And then I smile at myself in the mirror and say..."I MAKE THIS LOOK GOOD!!...AND FOR FREE!!" LOVE IT...GET ONE...you'll be glad you did.
