Beard Trimmer (and head trimmer!?)

dllive

Hi all,
Id like to get a beard trimmer, preferably something like BabyBliss For Men. However, while Im at it, Id like to get something that I can use to cut my own hair with too! I normally have a grade 4 on top with grade 3 round the sides. Im wandering if there is such a thing as a beard AND head shaver!

Ive never cut hair before, so maybe Im being to ambitious!

I got this recently and it is the easiest to use of any I have used before, mixed reviews here but most like it

Currys list it at the same price, though their picture is different, so maybe check it is the same as the amazon one

i use for my head the one mentioned above from amazon looks same as i bought from argos very good but as numbers go if you have 4 and 3 go for 5 and 4 as it gives closer shave than others
i dont trim my beard though i shave

Thanks guys, I didnt know such a thing existed. But it doesnt look like its designed for trimming beards. Maybe Im being optimistic in thinking you can get an all in one trimmer.

Second Remington - currently Barba MB320C - twenty quid - don't know if it does heads

I am also interested in buying a new beard trimmer:

I currently have this one: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Philips-QG3150-7-In-1-Rechargeable-Grooming/dp/B0012XWZES and it does beard and head - however tbh the combined ones aren't as good at head cutting

For my head I currently use: http://www.vo5.co.uk/extreme/perfectcut.html managed to pick it up for £5 a while ago in a sale at currys

Currently I am considering the following:

Buy Philips 5 in 1 Grooming Kit QG3040 from our Hair Trimmers range - Tesco.com

Buy Babyliss 7845BU ITrim Stubble from our Hair Trimmers range - Tesco.com

I had the iTrim and theBaByliss for men 7435U Easy Cut Clipper.

The iTrim would cut out and then only work when on the charger.

The easy cut clipper didn't rotate fast enough

I have had several types of beard trimmer over the years, but all have broken, had battery problems or just not been up to the job.

I recently bought this Wahl trimmer it is very similar to the ones they use at the barbers. At about £40 It was more expensive than a battery beard only trimmer but does a brilliant job and really feels like it will last a lifetime. If I felt really brave I could cut my hair with it too. At £3 extra for a barbers beard trim it is well on its way to paying for itself already.

As I was looking up a the link, Amazon`s suggestion box found this from the same manufacturer, it comes with many more accessories and is much cheaper at about £23. Good reviews too.

philishave turbo vac

i use on beard and hair

hoovers the hair up... so less mess

on head hair you have to pull the top off the sahver and tap out after an few runs (easy to do - 2 secs)

has 2 speed settings
new one has contour comb
charges in 45 minutes not 8 hours
not wet/dry
can run with the cable plugged in - (some either charge or run)

Ihad a philishave battery one was pretty good.
