Will this clipper shave off matted hair?

Yes it will if you can get under it close to the skin with no guard you can shear you dog like a sheep ! It's not a very pretty hair cut but at that point if he or she is matted badly you don't have a choice !

I never tried it...I used scissors on my dogs hair beforehand. So I'm not able to give you a good answer, but I'm thinking it would.

If the comb is off. I had to cut mats off with scissors first then use the clippers to shave closer. My cats hair is fine..not like people hair!

I use it on my golden. It is the best clipper I have found. It is easy being cordless. It is strong enough to cut through the fur though it does take a while with all the layers. My Golden loves it and feels so much better when she is shaved.

Yes, absolutely. A skip tooth is the only way you'll really be able to cut matted dogs.

If the de-shed tool is the one I'm thinking of, it has blades that cut through the matted hair. I like to use this one after I've used a blade type tool. I like this one in particular because the teeth rotate and there's less pulling. It removes the hair that the de-shedding blade tools cut loose. I have 2 Australian Shepherds (long wooly type coats, not the smoother coated strain) and I'm really happy with it.hope this helps.

Yes, when I got it smoothed out my skin. It removes the hairs but you would have to shave longer your face than if you were using clippers. One of main differences is that the shavers don't irritate your skin like clippers do. You have to at times put the oil on them to keep them able to give you that smooth shave. There is another shaver designed specially for blacks males called Wahl Professional 8061 5-star Series Rechargeable Shaver Shaper.

Yes, but this is a detailer, it is a small clipper So it is mainly used for cleaning up around the ears and neck line it will take it down closer then 0. Almost bald.

If it is light work yes, if the hair is thick and/or matted then no. I often use it on feet but sometimes if the hair between the pads have grown too long or thick I often use a larger clipper then go over it with this trimmer.

It does have sharp blades. It does get the mats out. If it is badly matted you will have to do a little at a time. I love it!

yes but you need to get a can of andis cool care plus for clipper blades run the clippers and spray it on the blades it will keep the blades cool and lubricant and you will be surprised of how it will increase the performance of the clippers I will use it throughout the cutting process with the blades cool they don't expand so it can get clogged best clippers on the market 5 stars

I would not. It will dull the clipper blade pretty fast, not to mention pull on the hair.

My dog is Spaniel and Lahsa Ahpso. His hair does get matted, but I have to cut out the mats. You would probably need to use scissors on your dog first to get the knots out and then use the clippers to keep him looking good. They work really well on regular clips - I cut my dog about every 4-5 weeks.

yes, it is designed to work on straight, curly, and slightly matted dog hair.

I work as a professional groomer. Honestly I would never advice anyone to use shears to cut out matts. The practice is EXTREMELY dangerous and could cause a SEVERE injury to a pet.the safest route is using a 10 blade on clippers to remove the matting and let a professional groom your cat. Cat skin is very fragile and elastic and difficult to work with.

Yes, it will. However, I use this primarily as a heavy or long hair shaver. Once it is short, I use the Cleancut Personal Shaver to get that smooth hairless feeling on my pubic and other areas.

yes. there are no plastic attachments like other clippers. the different size blades for different hair length trimming are removable. super easy to do

There are a bunch of different sized comb attachments, which probably will make cutting matted hair possible.

I don't know because I haven't tried. It is fairly gently but does vibrate a little and makes a low noise. It would probably depend upon your cat and its temperament. Also, I am not sure if the fine hair of a cat might clog up the clipper. I would check with a local cat groomer to get an opinion.
