title: "Club-cutting" dystonic tremor: a case report.
abstract: BACKGROUND
  Focal task-specific dystonic postures are well recognized. Often a tremor may be the main feature with little or no dystonia. These have been well reported in writers, musicians, and sportspeople.
  
  
  METHODS
  Herein we report a novel task-specific dystonic tremor in a 44-year-old Irish hairdresser due to club-cutting, a standard haircutting technique.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Hairdresser's dystonia is a novel task-specific dystonia.
