Baby powder (or cornstarch) gets rid of itchy post-haircut trimmings
Stacie's tip for those summer buzz cut blues:
I searched your site and saw that the tip for using powder to remove beach sand or sandbox sand from skin was posted a couple of years ago. But I didn't find any reference to using powder to help remove the bits of hair after a haircut. My three sons get their hair cut rather short in the summertime and they really appreciate getting those itchy hair trimmings off their necks as soon as possible. A little cornstarch does the trick, working on hair clippings almost as well as on sticking sand. I don't buy baby powder, I just put cornstarch in a shaker jar - the kind used for Parmesan cheese at pizza parlors.
(or any Amazon link at Parent Hacks), you throw some change into our tip jar without any extra steps or cost to you. Thank you!
I use baby powder on my three daughters when I cut their waist length hair very short like a boy
