A Day At Trinidad Beach
#sleepaid
I’ve been cutting my own hair for a few years now. Sometimes it seems that I am not getting the hang of it. But I will keep on trying to do a better job. I simply don’t see the need to find and pay a barber for something I can do for myself. It’s all about being self sufficient.

My name is Scott and in 2015, I bought a Ram ProMaster City to live in. Even though I didn’t know much about RV’s and campervans, I set about building the van out as a minivan camper. And in April of 2016, I moved into my minivan full time.
Over the years, I’ve learned you don’t need to have a big skill set to build your own campervan. And that living as a minimalist and utilizing solar power can be a less expensive way to live. I’ve also learned that a minivan can be a very comfortable home.
Please follow along as I document my journey.

Scott, do not listen to the haters. ❤Your haircut looks fine to me! Going to the barber or hair dresser can be a hassle- the appointment, the availability etc and the expense. You inspire more people than you know. Have a good one!

I love a shower and clean sheets. I think it’s fantastic that you can bathe every day in your own van. It’s saves time and money and comfort. I’ve been cutting my own hair for over 20 years too. I love living in my bubble and not dealing with people. Your hair looks just fine.
Scott, your haircut looks great. You are good at cutting it. You always have been.😊❤

As someone who has mobility issues I do appreciate those beach ramps! I hope I get to see the ocean this summer- nature is healing 🌼
I cut my own hair with a number 3 short all over. Been doing it for years. Yours looks great, ignore the haters.
You are not only amazingly creative (cognitively gifted) with problem solving…you are a survivor. God forbid there was ever an apocalypse…….while the material world is falling apart in panic, you would be just fine sitting back enjoying a cup of coffee (while the rest of the world is in a panic hoarding and fighting over toilet paper 😂). Love your videos! I learn something new from each one.

✨️🙋♀️☕️ Just a bit of a suggestion with the water transfer from large container to filter water container by your sink. I know that to pick up that large container and pour it up over my head into the filter container Simply a no go with me. Rather to use a gallon container with a screw on spout. Grant would need to fill to fill again over and again that gallon container, yet still so much lighter in weight..🚰💧🌊
I've been cutting my own hair for years. Nothing can be bad enough that a hat won't cover. I use a Remington hair clipper with a curve head, it works for me.

Been cutting my hair since 2019 and I'll never go back to a hair salon. They just can't get the style that i want and I'm not wasting money & time for that. Honestly, for someone who's grooming his own hair for 2 years, your haircut looks good. Most people will not notice the minor details. It's a hit and miss for the first 2 years; people at work were teasing me about my too-short-for-THEIR-taste front fringes. Laughed back at them while saying that it's a style of haircut that I'm trying to recreate and I'm surprised that they don't know about it. Me casually laughing back at them made them question their opinion. Now, same people are complimenting my hair and on how I can pull off different styles that they want to try. 😂 So just keep on doing what feels best to you and stand your ground. They'll back off when they see that you're unbothered and that they can't bend you with their words.

Very good video,You did a good job with your hair.dont worry about the ones that don’t have nothing out todo but complain ,
wahl has a cordless clipper w/ lithium battery; work great
My Mother ( rest her soul) went to hair styling / beauty school in her youth, and always kept her license up to date for a backup to any other career she got into. She cut my hair for years and taught me the basics are simple with the new grooming tools that are available. I also cut my own hair but I have much less hair to cut. I call it my heritage and it t makes grooming twice as easy since I have half as much hair. A number 3 comb / guide on my clippers works for both my head and beard. Your cut looks just fine. For me, any attempt at grooming is better than being shaggy.
You are living your life the way that makes you happy. I am happy for you and have always enjoyed your vids. The 1 minute barber on YT has some great tips on cutting your own hair, very concise and simple info...Keep being you and stay positive, safe travels Scott
Hello Scott, I agree with the others , ( only read a few but anyway) yes, you do a good job at cutting your hair...I used to cut my own hair, wasn't very good at it but then I decided to just let it grow out. Now my hair cuts itself, with a lil help from my brush, ... it breaks off, and not in a very pleasing way, kinda uneven, but I just really don't care much anymore. ..lol As for those people who leave unkind comments, who cares, they really just wanna get ya riled up... Good job at just leap frogging over them. Don't let them take up space in your head, pun intended...lol Sheets and just about everything these days have lost their quality, but high in price, it truly disgusts me the level of greed that has been growing by leaps and bounds, lately!!! I have never had flannel sheets, I bet they're comfy, but having said that my favorite are 100 percent cotton sheets. Soooo comfy. Let's see, what else was I gonna say...hmmmm Oh yes, in addition to your yummy coffee reward, you should have ice cream as well cuz you did a super good job!!! Wishing you a beautiful day followed by countless more beauties, and sending big hugs too❣️ Ps; Please say hello to the ocean for me, it's been way too long since I've been near any ocean...I miss it SOOOOO ❤
I am 64 years old, and I have been cutting my own hair for at least 20 years. Like you, it’s all about self-sufficiency. But I must say if I were traveling, I might enjoy the atmosphere of old fashioned barbershops in small towns.

I have curly hair. Even if you cut it evenly, some will curl more, etc, giving you an uneven “look”. I think it looks nice! On your last haircut it looked nice also. If i were a stranger, meeting you for first time, I wouldn’t immediately notice your hair. Id notice your eyes and how you spoke and carried yourself. 👍🥰

Forgot to say, I have a cow lick also. Don’t ever hear anyone speak about that anymore. Mines on my right top side. As a woman, I don’t go nearly enough. I might go once a year, maybe twice, but sometimes longer. Of course, it’s shoulder length and I can get away with it. However , I really should get it colored with my grays now beginning- but I don’t. I don’t like sitting in a chair for long time and making conversation etc etc

I think those of us of a certain age will remember the really wonderful flannel sheets. I **think** they were made of cotton, whereas all the ones I can find now are microfiber. As for the quality of EVERYTHING else, I'm REALLY struck these days how quality has plummeted! Seems the world is really falling apart😥

Your Haircut is fine. I cut my hairs since 30 years by my self😅 i wish u a nice week. My english is not the best. I send you many greetings from Southern Germany
Since the pandemic most of the time I cut my own hair. I go to the barber once a while only to get a good base haircut so I can keep working on it…
I don't think you have a problem with your hair. It looks great Scot x
Who cares what they think ! To each thier own. I've done mine for the last 20 yrs.
It's interesting to learn the different ways van people keep clean and groomed. Being half bald, I just buzz it all off. It turns out nice and even - lol. I intentionally stand out in the wind when I cut my hair so most of the clippings get blown off me. I do sponge baths with no-rinse periwash - the stuff they use to bathe bedridden people. It saves a lot of water. Then maybe once a month I take a real shower at a truck stop.
I can honestly say I have NEVER noticed your hair look "really awful"...au contraire! Dang naysayers!! It always looks fine. I'm sticks and bricks but I always cut my own hair. I've been doing it for about 15 or 20 years and there's only been once or twice where I did an "oops". As opposed to almost every time leaving a stylist and being unhappy or embarrassed with how I looked after a **professional*" did it. 😭 And the cost savings go without saying! 👍🏼👍🏼
I’ve been cutting my own hair with similar clippers for about 25 years now. Your technique looks fairly solid and you did a fine job. Not sure why people would flame you over your haircut 🤷♂️
I think that your hair looks great. Some people just look for something to say that hurts others. If I was you I would tell them to kiss it. You do great.
Your hair looks great ~ it can't be easy to do it yourself especially when it's wavy but you really do a very good job under challenging circumstances. You definitely deserved that cup of coffee 🧡
when you are looking at a work of art, you never look at the frame. 🙂
True word Scott- the Pacific ocean is my favorite also-
I think your hair always looks good but obviously you know it best. For someone that lives a nomadic life, you always keep yourself well-groomed. I'm in Victoria, BC for a few days for a change of atmosphere. Being that I took the Clipper here with choppy waters, I spent less time in the city today walking and needed some time to relax at the place I'm staying for renewal!

Why do people have to be so mean? I think you do a great job on your own haircuts. During the yrs that had salons closed down I cut my own hair. I did a so-so job just using scissors. I figured if it didnt look good then people just didn't have to look at me. I went to a salon last year and they butchered it, so now I'm just letting it grow. You look great!
I just love and enjoy your videos. Your more realistic than most people having to do van life.
Looks great! Go forth and drink coffee!!
Your hair looks really nice Scott. It’s your hair and your channel. People are so critical 💁🏻♀️ What matters is what you think.

I use the hobo shower like you using a 32 ounce water bottle. I need to add a half gallon jug like you for that major overhaul. I have a high roof transit van and I use a shower curtain between the two back doors.
I agree Scott i also cut my own hair its easy for me and cheap
I watched your haircut, and it looks fine. I cut my hair a couple of months ago. I placed my hair into a band and cut my hair at the nape of my head. Removed 2 inches. After that, I looked at a mirror and say a few hair strings and cut them. My hair is fine and straight and easily to cut. So your hair looks fine. Go have your coffee ☕️ 😊 Cindy
I agree with you. I don't pay for a gym membership either. I use wipes from Amazon that you get wet and they turn soapy. You don't have to rinse off either. There amazing. Then I use 2 of the one gallon jugs of water and wash my hair. Works for me!
I cut my own hair too. I've been doing it for years. You did a good job cutting your hair. Most people I watch on KZread also cut their hair too. Let the hater hate. ❤
Glad you chose Clam Beach for your grooming. You brought some remarkably fine weather with you. Great spot for photographing beach, ocean, and Trinidad Head. Scott scores AGAIN!!!!
1st: Great haircut! Scott, I hope we get to meet one day, we will be rolling with laughter over all of the things you discussed! I, too, feel as you do. Enjoy the beach!
What a gorgeous day at the beach Scott. You hit the nail on the head about the quality of products for sale . Almost all products out there are more expensive and cheaply made . Super frustrating. I’m much more picky about what I buy anymore . Anyways , hope your enjoying more sunny days at the beach .😊
Scott ignore the negative comments & delete them you’re really good at cutting your own hair & that’s the truth those people have got nothing better to do also buy a stool to sit on I have a telescopic folding stool in my van which works great plus I have just started my own KZread channel please subscribe share & give my videos a thumbs up & remember don’t worry about your hair because it looks good I cut my own hair as well I just put it into a low ponytail & then I cut it using a large pair of scissors but everyone thinks I went to the hairdresser
Hello Scott if people complain about your hair block them you don’t need to listen to them it’s good that you cut your own hair it’s a lot cheaper I don’t care what people think of my hair it always looks great to me❤️ have a great weekend and week here from Ontario Canada ❤️❤️❤️❤️🇨🇦🇨🇦😎
That haircut looks professional. When you said "Jagged" I lost it and had a great laugh!! It's your sense of humor. I enjoyed this video. The shower looked refreshing! Safe travels.
Hello Scott Thank you so much for showing the ocean. It was truly refreshing. I'm just starting my van life/KZread journey. I love how you handle the harsh comments. I wonder if those complaining about your hair have any hair at all. Thanks again for sharing a bit of yourself. Blessings to you 😊
Mr Scott , Your hair looks great, and we would love you even if you were bald 😊
In Oregon there is a project to remove non-native grasses along the coast which might be what they did. Nothing beats the beauty of the west coast ocean.
You did a good job on the haircut. Love my coffee too..
You're a pro at it. The trolls only wish they can do that good. Self-sufficient is the way I go to. My hair is very long. So is my husband's! I cut both of our hair!
I don't see anything wrong with your hair. It is just fine. My son cuts his own hair and my daughter cuts her hair the same way. Thank you for all for all you do. Your videos always calm me down. Have a good week!

I feel you on the clothing complaints. I've worn the same brands and shopped at the same couple of stores for years cause I've always like the options they offer, it matches my style, and I know their cut will fit my frame nicely. No confusion on sizing. But the quality of the clothing has dropped so much, and they've started making design changes to longtime staple wardrobe items, and it's disappointing and frustrating. I do not want to deal with having to find new places to shop.
That's a beautiful ocean. I think your haircut looks great! I sometimes cut my hair at home too, and because it's layered and wavy/curly, if I mess up (which is often) you can't really tell. 😁😁 That shower with bottles is so clever! I'm taking note for when I start my vanlife travels. Great video, as always. Thank you!

I think it would simplify the whole thing if you cut your hair in a public bathroom. All you have to do is sweep up your hair afterwards. I live in Germany, there are power sockets in almost all public toilets. Don't know what it's like in your place. I want to say that your haircut doesn't look bad. I also cut my hair myself and am happy with it. Best regards from Germany!
Since I was 17 years old i had bad inflamation of scalp, redness and dandruff and itch. Used everything under the sun, and it would get better for a while, but then week or two after hairdresser cut my hair it would return. I am convinced that at hairdressers some fungus or demodex mites would be transmited to me again and again. So two years ago, when I was 38 I started cutting my hair and the problemvis almost gone. And my hair almost completely stopped fallimg out since i cut it my self
That is a big money saver to cut your own hair. How smart!
Hair looks good.
Impressive! Good job! Your humor brightens my day.
I bought a set of clipper/scissors/combs/mirror 25 years ago for £10 and have cut my own hair ever since. I must have saved myself many thousands in barber charges and many hundreds of hours waiting around at barbers 🤷♂️
