Same, I use clippers, but go #3 - #8. Here, I photoshopped a quick image. http://i.imgur.com/tXbKNtF.jpg http://i.imgur.com/tXbKNtF.jpg (red and green wrap around the head, blue is just the top section) Red, I use #3. Green, I use #5. Blue, I do #8 at the front, #7 towards the back. Then, after that, I use the inbetween numbers. So I use a #4, and smooth out the transition from red to green. Then I use a #6, and smooth out from green to blue. To finish, thinning sheers. They're basically magic. I have thick hair, so I just clip all over the place at different lengths, and it blends everything together nicely. The neckline is difficult to get straight. I'm finally able to do it with a few mirrors, but it's a lot easier if you have someone else that can take 10 seconds for you. I just use some clippers by Wahl, and they've always worked fine. Cleanup takes the most time. Watch a few YouTube videos to get a better idea, and pick a forgiving time to cut your hair as a first attempt. If all goes wrong, you can just buzz it, or wear a hat for a week.
