Never again. Even with a #3 on top, there is enough wicking action to wear sweat isn't just rolling down your face.

while she didn't go as short as you, she got rid of a lot of it. She is loving it.

I'm a geezer, slick on top.
I use about a 3/4 " comb.
Zip, zip, zip and it's done.

Looks cool. I worked with a noc nurse who wore that style the whole time I worked with her. It would get about 1" long and start looking really good to me then *BAM* back to 1/4 inch.

by putting it in a ponytail and using the old, dull, single pair of scissors here at home to lop off most of the tail, leaving just enough to get it back up through the hot summer.

In another few weeks I'm going in to have it cut too short for the tail, and cleaned up a bit for the new school year.

My students would not be able to focus on learning for a very long time were I to go in with a cut like that. It's tempting, though.
