I'm not overly sympathetic; the beard was ugly from the get go to the let go.

No long hair around spinning tools applies to any part of your head.

No long hair around spinning tools applies to any part of your head.

Or any other parts of your body, He might be able to pull the remainder around and clip it to his right ear til it grows back.

I think that might have been his wake up call that it's time for a trim.

I wear my hair in a pony tail that is down to the middle of my back. I was using an electric rooter machine to unclog a floor drain at a local restaurant. It was owned by a elderly Chinese couple.
I was on the floor feeding the cable down the drain when my hair got caught in the steel cable and began to twist in the cable fibers.
The machine when shut down would continue to turn for a while as it slowed down.
My head was against the canister of the machine and held tight by the time it stopped.
The switch was a roller type that had in and out with the off position being in the center.
The owners wife was going to reverse the machine to get my hair out but did not know which position was in and which was out.
I had her stop and got out my phone, and called my wife at home. which was just a few blocks away.
Before she got there, the owners wife came running with a huge pair of gardening shears.
She did not speak much English but I managed to covey the " Get the hell away from me with them" statement.
My wife arrived and was able to untwist my hair with little loss to my pony tail.

I worked in the Emergency room of a Houston Trauma center, WE had all kinds of emergencies come through our doors.
We had a lady come in by ambulance who it seemed had had very long hair. She had gotten it tangled in a bread kneading machine at her job.
It seems the on and off switch was across the room for safely reasons, so it took some one a while to get to it and stop the machine.
The machine ripped her hair off to include the scalp and one ear before they got it stopped.
Bald my be a good thing.

I guess she is lucky to be alive. gives me the heepee jeebees to think about that.

My hairline started receding at around 30. A few years ago I finally decided to cut it all off. After the first trip to the barber to get it done I bought hair clippers and started doing it myself. As close to the scalp as they are capable of cutting. Every 3 to 6 weeks when it starts bugging me I get the clippers out and buzz it all off again. I wouldn't dream of growing it out anymore. Too much of a PITA. My kid has less hair than I do and he had been keeping his shaved for several years before I started.

Nothing like a good "buzz", eh...?

[DaninVan]

Mine's not quite that short but close too it.

On the not funny at all lady-who-lost-her-scalp; in what alternate universe is an unreachable safety switch an acceptable solution? I'm just guessing but dollars to doughnuts some idiot decided a single off switch was a cheap solution.

over the next couple of years, she would return to the ED due to infections under the scalp. I never did hear how it all ended.
