Vacuum Solution

 No more itchy hair.

Ever had the misery of an itchy back after visiting the hairdressers - all of those little cuts of hair digging into your pores?

What about a hollow collar with holes, attached to a vacuum cleaner. The collar fits right around the neck. When the hairdresser starts cutting, the vacuum cleaner cuts in, and sucks any falling hairs through the collar. No more hair down your back then!! No more itchyness. And the Barber doesn't have to sweep.

By the way...I've been infested by a virus on the two occasions I logged onto this site!!!!!!!!

       Why do you need the vacuum if the collar is catching the clipped hair? Why not a vacuum attached directly to the clippers? How about a vacuum attached directly to a "vacuum glove" the barber wears?

       Jeebes ...... this idea could really take off. 33% think it's a good idea. What about adding a scanning devise to the vacuum which would sort/filter the hair into colours? The cut hair could then be sold to wig makers. ... or to Joke shops who could sell it as itching powder of sorts

       There's no active content on this site. It'd be very hard, er, impossible to get a virus from the halfbakery provided you don't count addiction as a virus.

       There's a nasty Windows worm out on the loose right now, perhaps thats what hit you, coincidentally when you were looking at the bakery.

       Links could hook you to a virus, no? And maybe that itchiness is actually infestation of another sort. COOTIES!

       You're getting dangerously close to re-inventing the Flo-Bee, which is a criminal offense in most states.

       Good idea(+), just had a haircut and I am trying to get used to how much smaller my head is.
