Helo all, after reading all the posting on this thread, I have a question here n hope to get some advice. What is the difference between using blade, clipper and epilator? I am using blade at the moment, thinking of getting a epilator. :-\

The epilator does not cut hair,it pulls it out.Women use it on their legs,but for a man forget about it.
If only all men lived by the "Golden Rule ."

Thanks for the information! I just recently started buzzing my hair. I have the Oster Fast Feed but it does not give a close cut. I am planning on upgrading. I am stuck between two options: Wahl Balding Clipper vs Norelco Head Groom. Which one would you suggest? They are almost the same price.

The Balding Clipper on Amazon has a lot of people complaining that it cuts through the skin if you are doing it yourself. And my skin is quite sensitive. Thanks again!

I have this, Phillips Norelco Balder. It is as close or even closer than wet shave. However i have gone back to wet shaving as I prefer it.

I have been using the BGRC clipper with a #00000 which cuts to 0.2mm. I recently saw that Andis makes an "UltraEdge Outliner blade" that cuts to 0.1mm.  Would I be able to use this blade on my head to take the stubble down, all over, even further than the #00000 does?   Would/could I use this blade with the grain or against the grain to clipper shave? I am concerned about nicking my head with it.

I would also love to spear some money on razors foam and all off this frankly -if I could I would buy Wahl 5 but I can't  because I live where I live and i don't feel comfortable buying from net.

Well Done Derris!

I'm a research guy and I found that a majority of barbers in the area rock the Oster76. Can't argue if most the barbers in town use it right?

Hi Derris,

I can get these, do you know what they are like?

Andis Freedom Cut Cordless Clipper

also

I have the Philips QC5550, but haven't tried the balder attachment yet.. Just prefer the though of clipping over shaving!

Cheers dude  :)

Oh, just found these in the UK

Andis Professional Variable Speed BGRV Clipper, but £170  :o
