Anybody know if the Blending comb is 1/8" length (one step down from the 1/4")? I can't seem to find the next step down from the 1/4" comb. Is it a totally different length/style?

the blending comb is 1/16 according to Oster. The blade can go from 000 - 1, depending how you have it adjusted.

I just looked. There is one, but you can barely see or feel it - so I suppose it is buffed out. It doesn't have that "cheap comb" feel. Your hair will not get caught in it.

Unfortunately the markings are in 1/2" increments, not 1/4". There is a ruler that shows smaller increments, down to 1/8", which helps. However I've gotten around this problem by notching a small mark with a knife in my most common 1/4" measurements (for instance 4 1/4") then rubbing in a little black paint. This has worked fine for me. I use this paper cutter extensively and think it is well worth the price. They should hire me as a spokesman :).

If you can find Conair Instant Heat Hot Brush 1" or smaller I would recommend it. I have the one that's 1 1/4" as Ihave long fine hair (shorter on the top) and I love it...have been using it for years....Good Luck

The barrel size. If you have and use a regular curling iron, go by that size if you like the way your hair looks. A smaller barrel, obviously, the tighter the curl. Have used these for years when my cosmetologist used it on my then long, permed hair. Gave it a smooth, soft, touchable, natural look. Also, for me, since I do not have any natural curl, wave or body to my hair, it's best effect is with my perm and the first two haircuts. After that, I use a curling iron for the body and curl. If just running around, dampen hair, mousse it, shape, comb or wide-tonged brush. It may have held the curl from the day's previous use. Everybody's different! Good luck! The barrel size.

I have bangs and prefer the 1 inch for them but have used a 2 inch (different brand) previously and really liked it. Seemed to take less time to do my hair.

It's hard to say, as I didn't take a starting measurement. I didn't notice anything more dramatic than maybe 1/2"-1". I'll be better able to tell once I take measurements, or once I highlight my hair again. Two months ago, I got a cut and about 1 1/2" was taken off. It seems like my hair is back down to the same length as it was before the cut.

I have had the same problem getting a comb attachment for this model. The best solution is to take the old comb piece to a beauty supply store and see if they have a generic attachment that will fit. I'm actually concerned about investing too much in my dryer as if you read the reviews there has been a large number of incidence of this model exploding or catching fire (read ratings with 1 star). Good luck with your search

Very close to the actual size. The way they cut it is that not all the pieces are the full length because it's cut in layers. Also if it has curls in it, it looks shorter. If you pull the hair straight it's the length they say it is.

How do you know if you should get the small or large combs. We have a bichon Shitzu and a mini goldendoodle and want to start grooming them with our new Andis ultra edge. Just not sure if we need the small or large combs. THANKS:)

Hi Eileendresser, if you check out my review of this product you will see that I have short hair and I bought the 1 1/4 inch hot brush first. It worked after a fashion, but then I went back and bought the 3/4 inch hot brush and am much more satisfied with that one.Judy

There is a blade attachment that is about an inch long, and another that is a between 1/4 and 1/2 inches long. I guess that might be for doing eyebrows? I don't know. I threw that one away.
