Questions
- What guard number is a buzz cut?
- Usually a #1 to a #3. A #1 shows a lot of scalp, a #3 still reads as hair from a few feet away. If you have never buzzed before, start at #3 — you can always go shorter, and it takes about six weeks to go back.
- Does a buzz cut suit a receding hairline?
- It is one of the best answers to one. A buzz removes the contrast between the thin areas and the thick ones, so the recession stops being the first thing anyone notices.
