My clipper blades started pulling hair mid-cut yesterday on a busy Saturday

I read somewhere that blade gap can shift when they heat up during heavy use lol.

Bruh, it's pulling hair for a few seconds on a busy Saturday, not a medical emergency. I've had the same happen with a pair of $20 Wahl clippers I bought at a drugstore years ago. Just give them a quick oil and take a slower pass over that spot, you'll be fine. Half the time it's just a little dust buildup or a tiny nick on the blade edge from a drop. Not worth panicking over mid-cut.

Yeah @evan_wilson18 is right, people act like a little tug is some kind of crime. I've had clippers snag on a cowlick for years and it's no big deal, just loosen up the tension screw a hair and move on. Half the time you're overthinking it and making the cut worse by stopping and staring at the spot.
