oh, you wanted to see how hand clippers take off the hair ? did you like seeing getting cut and after the haircut ? your cousin maintained this cut later ?

yes :-) I accompanied him. I only told barber to give machine cut

Hi,

How old were you when you went with your cousin to saloon ? Btw, saloon doesn´ t have hand clippers, right ? - did you go with him to a barbershop ? You told the barber to cut it short at sides and back ?

Hi Ramesh and others,
The barber has been using handheld clippers (he needs both hands while operating) for my machinecuts. The machine sounds \" kit-kiti-kit\" and not \" cluck-cluck-cluck\" as described by Preeti. On enquiry I found that there are machines which can be operated with a single hand and they sound like thus. I request Preeti to respond as to her barber uses machine held in a single hand. I totally agree with Preeti that machine sounds like music in one' s ears while getting a cut.

there are different kinds of machines. usually children/kids will be moving their heads while operating machine and every possibility of cuts and bleeding. So barber uses one hand to hold their head tight and other to operate while is a difficult task a little bit.Where as for grown up boys he need not take this risk. So he can use both hands for operating machine. With reg. to sound it´ s an ear treat (music) anyhow. If grease or oil is applied to the blades of machine the sound is " cluk, cluk, cluk, cluk," . If not applied it is shuk, shuk, shuk. It´ s mixed feeling. If it is a forced haircut by father/mother then: Sad (hair falling on the cape, lap. anxiety whether co customers are watching us. at the same time sound slowly reaching ears while machine arrives near ear. If it is a self interested cut, then that joy knows no bounds. shb under score dyh at ycin

Hi Arun and Others,
I am also a fresher to the forum. I gone through the postings of Preeti, Nitin, Ravi and Prakash. Their experiences about \" Machine Cut\" which is also called as clippercut are really inspiring. I also started liking such a haircut when I am in the ninth standard on inspiration from my close friend Amit.
By the by tell me whether the barber used hand held clippers or electric clippers?

Hi Arun,
Thank you for sharing your brief and informative experience. Most of the \" machine cut\" happen due to inspiration from friends and/or family members unless such a habit is cultured as Preeti does to Ramya and her son from the childhood.
