+<p>I normally cut my hair short, and my tool of choice has been a
+common hair/beard cutter, bought in a electrical shop here in Norway.
+But the last ones have not really been up to the task.  My last
+cutter, some model from Braun, could only cut a few of my hairs at the
+time, and cutting my head took forever.  And the one before that did
+not work very well either.  We have looked for something better for a
+while, but it was not until I ended up visiting a hair dresser that we
+discovered that there are indeed better tools available.  But these
+are not marketed and sold to "regular consumers".  The hair saloons
+can get them through their suppliers, but their suppliers only sell
+companies.  The models they sell, are very different from the ones
+available from Elkjøp and Lefdal.  The main difference is their
+efficiency.  It would cut my hair in 5 minutes, instead of the 30-40
+minutes required by my impotent Braun.  The hair dresser I visited had
+a Panasonic ER160, which unfortunately is no longer available from the
+producer.  But I found it had a successor, the Panasonic ER1611.</p>
+
+<p>The next step was to find somewhere to buy it.  This was not
+straight forward.  The list of suppliers I got from the hair dresser
+did not want to sell anything to me.  But searching for the model on
+the web we found a supplier in Norway willing to sell it to us for
+around NOK 4000,-.  This was a bit much.  We kept searching and
+finally found a Danish supplier
+<a href="http://nicehair.dk/panasonic-er-1611-professionel-hartrimmer.html">selling
+it for around NOK 1800,-</a>.  We ordered one, and it arrived a few
+days ago.</p>
+
+<p>The instructions said it had to charge for 8 hours when we started
+to use it, so we left it charging over night.  Normally it will only
+need one hour to charge.  The following evening we successfully tested
+it, and I can warmly recommend it to anyone looking for a real hair
+cutter.  The ones we have used until now have been hair cutter
+toys.</p>
