Saw that TPOB was having a huge sale for black Friday. So I hot some Play clippers to try them out. They feel nice. Not too heavy but not too light. The rubberized texture is nice. But I'm already having charging issues. I charge it for hours and it just doesn't charge. And it is brand new. Anyone else have battery issues with these? And maybe a fix without dealing with returning it?

Just some basic rules for the clients that lurk here. Most are pretty good, but a refresher is always nice.

-Dont stand on the footrest. You can bust your ass doing that. It is a footREST not footstep.

-If you are late for your appt, please call. It is common courtesy, it takes no time to call, but it helps us immensely. It makes it easier for us to work you in.

-If you are late, please don't be holding a Starbucks or Smoothies you just bought. We know why you were late. Not cool.

-if we don't offer or have time for shampoo services, please try to wash your hair before you come. Dont go work a shift at the concrete plant and then come in with your hair full of concrete dust. Messes u

Have a 2017 and the belt latch sticks sometimes. Like it doesn't want to release when you push the butyon. Anyone have a fix?

I have an old Takara Belmont chair that has an electric pedal hydrolic base. But the seat upholstery is going to crap. I don't know of any places near me that can redo the upholstery. So I am wondering if I could buy a chair of the same model that just has a foot pump and switch the bases on them? Anyone have any experience with them?

If you had to show someone an example of your team having as close to a perfect game as possible, which would it be?

I'd choose the 2015 Cotton Bowl against Michigan St. Saban with Kirby and Lane put on an absolute clinic on offense defense and special teams against a very good 3rd ranked Michigan St team that won the B1G, shutting them out.

Because I hate it. I don't mind if they are waiting and excuse yourself outside when answering the phone or if they are in your chair and it is important (but quick) call. But these guys who come in and look down and scroll social media while you are trying to cut drive me nuts. Dude, sit up. I promise you won't die if you aren't sending a snapchat every 10 seconds. I'm not going to wreck my back working around your bad posture. So I just don't deal with it.

Does it bother you guys too? Or am I just crazy?

It isn't coming from the moter, it is coming from the blade somewhere. They still cut well, they are just really loud.

Anyone else had this problem?

There are now like a ton of names to describe the same haircut. All because some guy does a temp fade on tiktok but wants to get credit for "creating" a new cut. So he calls it a Taper fade. Or a Brooklyn fade. Or something else entirely. Can we just stop that shit? It is confusing to the client and the barber when they come in asking for a cut by the wrong name. All because some dude name blurryblenzdabarber on insta told them that a basic fade is now called an "Expanded burst temp solo fade" or some other bullshit.

I have a lot of tennis/running shoes i like, but get hair stuck all over them. And I have boots for winter months which work great. Just don't want them for summer. But I'm looking for good tennis/running shoes that are not only good for standing all day but also look sharp and won't get hair stuck everywhere.

The closest I've found that work is some Air Max with the plastic shoelace inserts, instead of regular laces. Just wondering if there is anything else you guys know of.

...just know that a lot of us came from an apprentice background in a shop. Where you were belittled, yelled at, swept, mopped, folded laundry, made little to no money, criticized and called out for every mistake. Had the fundamentals drilled into us like a bootcamp.

So if we are harsh in here when you post your 2nd cut ever, we aren't doing it to be mean. We are doing it because we want to help you get better. You aren't going to be lighting up IG with your 2nd cut. Because you don't know what you are doing. And thats ok.

So keep showing off what you are doing and what your progression is.. but don't take offense when we say that your 1st, 2nd or 3rd cut needs work and isn't great. Beca

Anyone hearing about any interest or targets from the portal?

Or is there anyone you think Bama needs? (Keep the coordinator jokes to a min)

What is the sloppiest, most-terrible game your team has managed to pull a win out of, despite trying hard to hand the other team the win. ?

For Alabama, I would say it would be 2014 vs Arkansas. Coming off a loss to OleMiss the week before, nothing was clicking at all.. Fumbled the ball and muffed the returns so many times. And Arky should have picked off Sims no less than 5 times when Sims threw directly at the defense. If it wasn't for a blocked xp, Arkansas mightve pulled out a win. But Bama made it out with a 14-13 win.

So I've posted here before about this but I have an 04 Element and my battery light keeps flickering. I've had 3 charging tests done on the battery and alternator. No issues there. Took it into a shop to run tests and they say they can't get the light to come on. Picked it up and it ran for 3 weeks without coming on again....until yesterday afternoon. Anyone have any ideas?

Yesterday, my 04 battery light started flickering while driving. Had both the battery and alternator checked out and had a full diagnostic done, they say they can't find anything. But it still flickers. Any ideas?
