George Clooney admits he was prepared for the pandemic because he's been cutting his hair with a Flowbee for YEARS

 He's known for his short and simple haircut with a side part. 

And now George Clooney has revealed that he has achieved the classic look for years with the help of a Flowbee, a device that cuts hair and vacuums up the trimmings.

The 59-year-old Gravity star opened up about his surprisingly thrifty grooming habits while chatting with Tracy Smith on CBS Sunday morning.

After being asked about his routines in quarantine, Clooney revealed his routine hasn't changed in decades.

'I've been cutting my own hair for 25 years,' he admitted. 


'My hair's really like straw, and so it's easy to cut. You can't really make too many mistakes.

'So, years ago, I bought a thing called a Flowbee, which when we were —' he said, just as Smith interrupted him in shock: 'You did not!'

The interview then cut to a clip of a Flowbee infomercial, which showed how the device works.

The product has been advertised on television since the late 1980s and is essentially a vacuum cleaner that also cuts hair.

The device automatically clips hair while the vacuum removes the clippings and cuts down on the mess of getting one's hair cut.

Similar devices have been used in space, where floating hair clippings could interfere with important electronics.

Looks great! 'I still have it!' the Hail Caesar actor bragged. 'My haircuts take literally two minutes.' Even his haircut for the interview was from a Flowbee

Flowbee was even responsible for the actor's perfectly coiffed look during his interview.

'Listen, man, it works!' he gushed.

The Monuments Men star also spoke warmly of his wife Amal Clooney, with whom he shares three-year-old twins Alexander and Ella, saying she 'changed everything' for him.

'There is no question that having Amal in my life changed everything for me,' he said. 'It was the first time that everything that she did and everything about her was infinitely more important than anything about me. And then we had these two knuckleheads. It is very fulfilling and something I didn’t see coming.'

The actor and director insisted he never talked about marriage earlier in their relationship.

'We never talked about marriage when we were dating. I asked her out of the blue, took her a long time to say yes. I was on my knee for like 20 minutes, I finally said, "Look, I’m gonna throw my hip out." 

Surprise! Clooney also didn't talk about having kids, until they found themselves in a doctor's office for Amal to get an ultrasound. 'I was like, "Baby boy, fantastic!"'; seen in May 2019

'We never talked about having kids, and then one day we just said, "What do you think?" We go to the doctor and you do the ultrasound. They’re like, "You got a baby boy!" and I was like, "Baby boy, fantastic!" 

'And they go, "And you got another one there." I was up for one. All of a sudden, it’s two. It’s hard to get me to not talk and I stood there for like 10 minutes just staring at this piece of paper going, "What? Two?"' he recounted.

Clooney also said he had developed a new sense of 'sympathy' for his mother following lockdown.

'It’s been a while since I did 15 loads of laundry in a day and mopped floors and all these doors over here I stained,' he said.

'I always say I felt like my mother in 1964, because she had two kids and no help. I don’t know how she did it now, I have more sympathy for her now than ever.' 

New understanding: Clooney said he developed a new sense of 'sympathy' for his mother following lockdown as he learned how hard it is to care for two children; seen in May 2019
