Boring answer but my hair clippers.
Ain't been to the professionals for years.
I do look like the wild man of the woods though
It takes a bit of learning and help, but you can get good at doing a gradient.
I've been doing a #1 or #0 all over for ages. Clippers work out great for me. No skill required.
My system goes like this:
Summer arrives and it's hot, time to clean shave my head and beard and look like a nazi skinhead.
By the time winter comes I'm looking like a hobo but my hair is nicely covering my ears and my face and neck are protected by my beard so I don't feel so cold.
Summer arrives again, time to clean shave again.
Hadn't even though of this. I don't think I've seen a barber in 2 years. I'm glad my partner had experience shaving their dad's head though, they do a nice job
Good answer - pays for itself in less than a year.
