    Mine's a buzzcut--shortest possible cut my clippers can do, so it's all by feel, with a double-check after the post-cut shower. Even a slight miss is obvious by feel at that point.

    My Wife and I use the same Man/Wife barbers. They do a great job, and are reasonably priced.

    Some of us don't have as much to worry about with our looks as you have. A few of us don't have much at all to worry about concerning our looks; we're past our prime for looks. I'm in that category.

    My wife switched to a different beauty salon and indicated her hair is lighter than normal. I might be arriving from Arnfest to a blonde wife.

    My wife's hair is a lot 'lighter' than it was 52 years ago. I seem to be a lot more 'blond' than I used to be too.
