Subject: Does anyone remember the "flowbee"

Written By: Salpi on 01/15/05 at 1:58 am

It was some kind of gadget that you put on your vacum and cut your hair with.
I think that it was one of the craziest invention's ever made but it was pretty cool though
it was either from the late 80's or early 90's I am guessing that it was from the very early 90's.
The only reason I remember this is because at the end of my dad's video there are some commercials and scenes from a couple shows from the early 90's and maybe late 80's too.

There's a talk-variety show on TV here in Australia called The Panel. I seem to remember them making fun of the flowbee at one stage a couple of years ago. :)

I think it was from the early 90's because the woman I used to work for had one.  That was around 93 or 94.  She used it all the time.  I suppose it was good for trimming the ends of your hair, but I can't imagine being able to do anything stylish with it.

I wonder if people were afraid of sucking their own hair out? ;D

my cousin had one and used to cut her sons' hair with it.  she loved it.  i once saw an ad for it in a catalog with the best warning attached :  not for use with upright vaccuum cleaners!  DUH!  :D
