Old barber in Houston told me to stop using so much pressure with my clippers
I was pressing down hard like I was cutting through steel, thought that was normal. He showed me how the blade does the work if you keep it sharp and let it glide. Has anyone else had to unlearn bad habits from the early days?

Read this thing online from a barber who worked 30 years. Said most guys press down because their clippers are dull. He recommended ceramic blades. Made me swap mine out. Huge difference. No more digging into skin.

Wait, are you saying I've been basically fighting my own head for years with dull clippers instead of just... buying better blades? Guilty as charged, I guess my "technique" was just compensating for cheap gear.
