Yes - walking into things is definitely a hazard with my approach (particularly as I am spectacularly untidy and tend to just dump things wherever), so definitely be careful!I like your idea of not looking down, but with my luck I'd trip on something or walk into something
Right now I think the bugs are worse than the hair.
I'll give it another try this weekend doing it your way and see how it goes. I promise everyone that I will take my time and not rush it. The last thing I want is to hurt it again.
