Was dead set against using a foil shaver for bald fades, then I caved

Honestly, I spent two years telling my clients that clippers and trimmers were the only way to get a clean bald fade. Then my wrist started hurting after like 4 straight skin fades in one shift last month. My buddy who works at a shop in Austin told me to try the Andis Pro Foil, said it would save my hand. I tested it on a regular customer who always complains and he literally said it felt smoother than before. Now I'm doing all my zero fades with it and I'm mad I waited this long. Any other guys made the switch and found a foil that doesn't leave missed spots on the neck?

Whatever works, right?" is basically how I feel about most tools now.

Ha, I feel this so hard! I spent way too long being stubborn about foils just to find out I was the one making things harder on myself. Now my wrist is grateful and I get to pretend I'm a fancy barber from the future.
