Title: Remington SCC100 Short Cut Hair Clipper
Post by: beardedbaldgerman on December 11, 2010, 09:27:40 AM

Hi all,

Has anyone tried these (Remington SCC100): http://www.amazon.co.uk/Remington-Groom-Innovation-SCC100-Clipper/dp/B001675466

How short is the balding attachment that comes with it? At the moment I buzz my hair with the 3mm attachment (1# I guess).

Thanks,
1mm

Before going sly, I have been using it for a few months. For some reason the version I got didn't come with a balding attachment. I used it with and without the trimming guard and liked it. You can have it if you want. :)

I purchased one about 18 mo ago and in less than a year the charging light failed and shortly after the entire clipper took a sh**!   don't waste your money.

How short do you really want to go?  Once you get shorter than a #0, you're going to look completely bald so it might be cheaper and easier just to shave with a blade.

If you really want a clippers that cuts super short, try the Wahl Balding Clippers.  They cut, I think to a #00000 or #000000 -- about as close as you can go without shaving.  You have to be careful you don't pinch your scalp with them, though, because they do cut really close.

I have this and have used it with and without the little balding guide. It is basically a clipper shave without the guide and slightly longer with the balding guide. It is useful, due to its curved shape for buzzing body hair as well as thats a need you have too btw.
A better choice is the Conair Clean Head Shaver. It has both an elcetrice razor type blade curved for head shaving and a clipper type adjustable blade with guide combs for very short lengths.

Bought it yesterday. Buzzed my hair with the #1 (2mm). But I think I might try the balding comb... Not sure how much hair it lefts. the manual says something about 0.6mm.

I use the Wahl Balding Clippers and even I have to look close to see what's left.

I have used the balding comb and it is basically a ckipper shave or a bit longer. Mine has died though and will no longer hold a charge. It lasted about 3 years.

Looks great witht he beard hair all the same length. Next you should try it without that balding comb. That will be more of a true clipper shave. It would take maybe 3 days at most to get back to where you are now.

How noticeable for others would it be if I would shave it completely?

Most people are not that observant and probably wouldn't notice at all, believe it or not.  To the general population, your head is already completely shaved.  Give it a try; it will only take two or three days to get back to where you are now.

Does anyone know where I can get this thing in Germany?

ALso look for the Coanie Clean Head shaver. It is a true clipper with a head hsaver attachment that fits to a head. Like an electric razor but deisgned for the head.

It seems that there is no distributer in Germany.

It would probably be easier to get it online and pay the extra to ship it to Germany.

I have the Conair HG300 C CleanHead
