Drewski see about Braun....I use it and to my head works good. Just look at model who dont have stable-foil head, and take the one who have moving system/head, because head/foil  follow the shape of your head.

Or the Wahl Detailer every 3-4 days. Cuts closer than the balding once you reset the blade, but more timely due to smaller head. I want to try the T double wide blade, which I understand is 0.5cm wider.. Not too sure what difference this might make!?

T-Wider Blade arrived yesterday, I set it up and used it today.

I zero gaped the blade via a table as the zero gaping tool supplied with my original Wahl detailer, wouldn't accommodate the wider blade.

Visually the blade doesn't appear to be that much wider, but the subtle difference in size makes a huge difference in time taken to bald the head. The blade is so much sharper, which I put down to design as opposed to just being a newer blade.  O0

I was concerned the blade would cut me, based on all the Interweb\Youtube claims, luckily this wasn't the case and if you don't go mad, you'll be okay !  :)

I'd definitely recommend the upgrade, which provides welcome benefits to what is already a very decent clipper.  O0

Hope this helps others too  O:O

I used the Classic 76 for 15 yrs with an 00000 blade.  The closest you can get without a razor blade.

Hey Derris, of all the electric razors you listed, which one would you recommend to get as close to a razor cut as possible?
Thanks,
Lee

My Braun seems like it is not cutting as good as it used to. I do occasionaly use it on my head but today i tried it and wasnt as good as a month or so ago. I do use it regular on face.

>Goatee. How many months you have it? I asked this because Braun said every 18 months, head need replace. Of course that depends from use...if you use it for face and head I think the life was less.

Maybe yours Braun was jealous because you use also DE, and stopped to working good at your head for that reason  :D

Hi guys,

I tried the Wahl balding clipper, too dangerous for me, it results a bloody cut, it's too sharp.

After that, I tried the Wahl 5* detailer and waou it's sharp and smooth, i like it. It's not as closer cut than the wahl balding but it's ok for me.

Hi,
this guy modified the Wahl balding clipper with a 0000 adjusto lock but there is 3 holes, i don't understand how he did.
