Wait, dots on rocks? A marker works better!

Ugh, @thomas.lucas, you hit the nail on the head. Last month, I hired a landscaper who promised to trim the bushes but ended up cutting down a small tree (no joke). And don't get me started on electricians showing up without the right parts. It's like they don't even check the job details before coming over. Makes you want to do everything yourself, even though that's not always possible. So frustrating when basic stuff gets messed up like that.

Speed comes with practice, but clips aren't just for newbies. They keep sections neat, which actually saves time on fixes later. If someone says clips slow them down, they might not be using them right. I've seen plenty of fast stylists who swear by clips for tricky cuts. Guess it depends on whether you value speed over perfection every time.

How much good basil have I thrown out over the years? I felt that pain about the wasted dill, I've been there too. This water trick is a real game changer for cutting down waste.

Feel the fabric with your hands, that matters.
