I ordered one on Amazon. I'll be curious to see if it reduces my shave time.

Hello gents, i just wanted to say a big hello to everyone at the forum - i've spent the good part of today lounging around reading up on this stuff, its an absolute goldmine of info around here, thank you ! Its about time i got around to taking care of my beloved bald head..

To stay on topic i just have a quick question - i see the Wahl Balding Clipper is highly recommended but i was wondering if anyone had experience with the Wahl Detailer (T-Blade?) ? I've read it can get closer than the Baldings.

Also i wonder if anyone knows how much or if skin is stripped when you use these trimmers opposed to clean shaving with a blade ?

This would be a big help, many thanks in advance  O0

 Wahl Balding Clipper

Seriously thinking of buying one. Having tried shaving my head i still prefer the rough look / feel. I use my beard trimmer to shave my head but it still not cutting close enough. Is the Wahl the best out there? I use the beard trimmer without the guard and i dont think it is cutting that close.

Still comfused on what to buy.. I used to shave my head with Gilette Fusion over 3 years. But a want a reliable device that can cut both my hair and face close to 0,1 (like 1-2 days after shaved). What do you suggest me to purchase? Wahl Balding or Philips QC5580? (anyone tested the second one?)

I want a all in one device.. If I want a close to razor cut, to a 0,1-0,3 option + the face cut.

Plus I want a fast haircut, faster than razor which takes me 30-40 minutes in both straight+against the grain.

It is a great clipper. The blades are really sharp so you just need to be careful when using it.
