      My parents are from Louisiana so I have a special place in my heart for cajuns. At age 47, believe it or not, you would be on the young side of the median age I train. Most are over 65 and have retired from other occupations. Go to my website and download our information package for more information or call us.

    How much practice?

    • @BonikaShears
      @BonikaShears  Před 11 měsíci

      None, really. Usually they learn in one day, practice one and start sharpening. (That's if they have the right equipment and training!)

    I don’t think the math on the Annual income sharpening clipper blades is correct.
