Noticed this set up....
I have an Oster 76 and it seems to be great for all over the head cut......
Noticed the Fast Feed Clipper and T finish Trimmer...... QUESTION: Is the Fast Feed Clipper any different from the Oster 76? Is it better to have a smaller hair clipper for the fade?
Im confused why you have a Detachable blade clipper then use the Fast Feed Clipper..... Would anyone suggest a complementory clipper for the Oster 76... like something for detailing or something?
price is not an issue for my tools

Seems the fast feed is good enough for tape/fade.... Its a step below the Oster 76 which is a nice machine.
from what Ive read so far it seems like the fast feed is a bit smaller than the Oster 76 or Andis 63965. Im thinking of getting the Fast Feed for this reason, I get tired of the OSter 76 sometimes because its on the heavy side because of its power.
The Fast Feed would be ideal for tapes and fades because of the possibility of managing the machine better with your hand and the lever on the side which gives you lengths in between clips. Can someone tell me if my assumption is right?
I feel I need something more than the Oster 76.... the Fast Feed might be it but Im not sure yet

^ For beginners, YouTube has a couple of solid videos on cutting your own hair. For the most part, it just boils down on improvement, because it's not something you'll automatically perfect. As far as for equipment, there's no other trimmer I'd recommend more that the andis t-outliner. For clippers though, I'm currently looking to purchase a different one, and haven't decided which one to go with.

I own an andis master and andis t-outliner and would go with these. Had both for about 2 years now and they still work perfectly, haven't used the andis master in a few months though because I'm growing my hair out
I hear wahl is also a great brand however I have never owned anything by them.

what i do is turn my back to a bigger mirror and use a hand one to see the back of my head if that makes sense....you just need to dive into it and try it, repetition makes you better.
Lil mirror ---------me
Also i own andis improved masters and love them
Hopefully will get T-outliners soon

So would you recommend this kit for a white dude just looking to shave the whole head one length and then shape up a bit? My hair is really not that thick and I'm looking for a practical set.Originally Posted by kickstart

What is the difference between a clipper and a trimmer?
A clipper is intended for heavy duty haircutting, but does not cut extremely close, whereas the blade on a trimmer does cut close and is used to trim the back of the neck, around the ears, around sideburns, etc

its worth the 90 bucks
because they are going to pay for themselves in about four uses
ive been cutting my own hair since 1998
figuring you pay about 20 per cut
i saved mad dough
i have the oster 76
and the andis edgers
don't waste your time with anything else if you want a quality cut
and there are other good clippers out there
wahl has some good joints too

jk.. you should look at some youtube vids..some are helpful..
Trust me your first time is probably the worst..I've been cutting my own hair for about 5 years now and I've messed up plenty of times.
