私は、髪の毛が一定の長さを越えると、突然、頭髪がうっとうしく感じるようになります。
When my hair exceeds a certain length, I suddenly start to feel annoyed with my head of hair.
ところが、最近の私は、床屋に行く時間すら惜しいです。
These days, however, I can't even spare the time to go to the barber.
短時間、低コストを売りにしている床屋でさえ、待ち時間を入れれば、1時間弱の時間が取られることもありますし、そこそも、床屋に出かけるのが面倒です。
Even barbershops that sell short-time, low-cost services can take less than an hour if you include waiting time, and even there, it is a hassle to go out to the barbershop.
で、まあ、こういう所業に至ってしまう訳です。
And so, well, I ended up in this kind of situation.

ところが、この髪型、家族に恐しく評判が悪かった。
However, this haircut was not well received by the family.
毎朝、嫁さんや娘がギョっとした顔をします ―― まあ、私も毎日、鏡の中に「東京裁判審理中の東条英機元首相」の姿を見ることになりましたが。
Every morning, my wife and daughter look at me with gawk -- well, I also see the image of "former Prime Minister Hideki Tojo during the Tokyo Tribunal proceedings" in the mirror every day.
という訳で、最近は「丸刈り」はやめて、「スポーツ刈り」に戻していますが、あいかわらず、床屋に行くのは面倒です。
So, I have recently stopped wearing a "round haircut" and returned to a "sports haircut," but it is still a hassle to go to the barber.

バリカン買ってみました。
I bought a clipper.
まあ、床屋2回分のコストで元が取れるし、そもそも、私は理容に「美」を求めていませんので、これで十分です。
Well, the cost of two barbershops will pay for itself, and since I am not looking for "beauty" in hairdressing in the first place, this is good enough for me.
また、付属のコームを付ければ、一定の髪の毛を残すこともできるので、問題ありません。
Also, with the attached comb, you can leave a certain amount of hair in place, which is not a problem.
上半身裸になって庭に出て、適当にバリカンで刈りまくって、髪の毛をふり落した後、そのまま、風呂場に直行しました。
I stripped down to my top, went out into the yard, and after trimming my hair with clippers at random and shaking it off, I went straight to the bathroom.
後頭部だけは見えないので、嫁さんに、はさみで切り落して貰いましたが、これも将来的には自力でなんとかしたいと思います。
Only the back of my head is invisible, so I asked my wife to cut off the hair with scissors, but I would like to do something about this on my own.

自分の髪型に1mmのこだわりもなく、ただ、うっとうしい髪をとっとと処分したいだけ人には、「バリカン」の利用をご提案したいと思います。
For those who are not particular about their hairstyle and want to get rid of their annoying hair as soon as possible, I suggest using "hair clippers.
