My hair was getting long, bout 1 1/2 inches(that's long for me!) And it was getting hard to make it stay spiked, so I decided to trim it down to a 1/2 inch. I did most of it myself, then I asked my sister to come finish trimming it. She had to take the 1/2 inch attachment off for some of the stuff on my neck, and she said ok I have a little to do up top. I hear it buzzing and I said wtf are you doing? I feel up on my head and she's shaving it without the attachment! So now I have almost no hair(you can see my scalp like a mofo) and I look like a leukemia victim now!THANKS SIS!
