I used an electric clipper for a couple of years. Very, very convenient to buzz everything half an inch off the wood.

Perfect for camping too. Pour a cup of hot, soapy water over your head and you're presentable.

But does a buzz look good? It's in fashion these days, but it really depends on the shape of your head. Some guys look great. I don't, since my head is (apparently) shaped like a turnip. So I went back to regular haircuts.

But if money got tight, I'd go buzz again, and wear a great hat.
