Oh, yes (ignoring my earlier comment) lobeydosser the answer is every 10-12 weeks or so. It's frightfully expensive. About £9. I once had a hair cut in London at a famous place... £46 for about 7 minutes of feverish cutting.

My younger brother went to a "barber" yesterday - paid over 20 quid to have about three strands of hair cut off...but was given a tiny "booze cruise" bottle of cabbage water lager for his troubles.... As the dog parlours around here charge upwards of 20 quid to trim the dogs and we used to have two, I have to admit to cutting them myself. They would never be good enough to enter a dog show but I was happy with the results and they appeared to be pleased to be short haired, atleast for a wee while.

My hair is the only part of my body that has still got some life in it, the rest has given up. Plus it's the closest I can legally get to attractive ladies, as they cut my hair, without being arrested. I just have to careful they don't catch me watching them in the mirror. To be fair, they know I'm harmless.

Never I use my clippers at zero Same here. Once a week I used to do that it was so easy and comfortable, but Mrs Bad and our youngest daughter kept complaining I looked too scary so back to the barber £11 every 3 months or so. Hardest thing is finding a consistent barber that does a reasonable job at a reasonable price, price and how flash the gaff is have little to do with it.

Once a month for me. I used the same barber for 5 years as she knew exactly how I liked it cut. She was very attractive too which was a bonus lol. Unfortunately she's given it up so currently trying various barbers to find one that cuts the way I like it

Clippers. Once a week, usually Sunday. Kitchen. No. 1 all over. Same on the beard. Didn't even buy the clippers, they were a Christmas present from my daughter Christmas 2015. Cheap as chips, and saves on shampoo too!

Clippers no2 style when I can be arsed, as it takes ages to do round the back as I'm on my own. Last time I had it professionally cut I checked the time and it took 4 minutes 35 seconds and 9 quid.

Clippers, Grade 2 or 3 every year on my birthday in April. Hair ends up just right for the weather. Haven't got time for husbandry...

Barber every 6 weeks. Some of us men like a bit of pampering now and again
