is it for cutting or thinning

We use it for both but be careful cause you could cut more that you want. I use it to cut my hair and get a rough edge...I don't like the crisp cut look. My daughter likes a style we use to call "punk" i think its called "scene" now. She likes the real jagged edges around her face and neckline.

used for cutting hair, teeth are just like a comb. Scissors with open teeth are all I know for thinning hair. Hope this helps.

One side cuts alot and the other cuts a little. It does thin your hair out. You have to be careful because it can take a chunk out of your hair that totally surprises you!

It will do both but mostly for thinning. I agree with others you need to be careful because it can take out a chunk.

I would. It's a very nice clean cutting trimmer and comes with different heads that can be used to get different lengths. Head is perfect size for that stuff.

This is a trimmer. Use it to trim around the neck and ears. IE: The length is zero.

No. Although it may be a little long for your uses. You could easily cut it as well.

I think it can be used on any plant, however only for light trimming, no thick branches. Keep the blades clean and should work fine for a long time

You use the smaller side the thin side however you want to say it but just trimming. Go gently don't dig into your scalp. If you do you going to cut too much hair off. I use mine in between trips to the beauty parlor. I think they're great. You can also use them to trim a man's hair. I hope this helps you out.

It's better suited to trim work and hard to reach cuts. Blades are expensive for all manufacturers. You can use other company's blades with adapter sold at Home Depot.

I have not used it for this. However the small blade would make shredding foam or sponge difficult. It's a much better "chipper" for branches & sticks than a shredder for soft, loose & bulky material. The 'mouth' is not wide or deep like a funnel but shallow w/ a small-ish opening.

Absolutely, you can easily use either. I think they only have 2 machines. I believe the cutting area is just smaller on the one.

I have used it for trimming branches, it worked well, as long as the branches aren't bigger than the blade

It works wonderfully great as a thinning device, but I think it gets some of the top coat too. Nicely made, easy to use, well worth the price.

It doesnt hold well, its not 100% real hair. So it more for cutting. Hope this help

The Oster has the flexibility to cut close if needed, or with the adjustable level, to a lesser extent. I use it to trim my mustache, shave my arms and back and keep the nasty hair around the ears trimmed neatly. I also use it to trim my head since I am not yet ready to go completely hairless on the top.

I have cut a few small tree limbs with it. It does that OK. Clearing brush with this knife would be quite a chore. Thats not really what it is designed for.

it cuts fairly thin (definitly not SHAVED thin). I really have not tried to see how thin it would go because I like things a little thicker. Does great on ham, roast beef, etc.

we mainly use it for trim.it will make a nice cut with a straight edge.i haven't experimented a lot with it

The blade is not thin. It is a strong, sturdy piece of steel that will cut through all types of brush and shrubs. I would get the longer blade if I had a chance to do it all over again. Less bending required....
