between this and the Andis Professional 04603 Outliner II Personal Trimmer, which one is better for trimming hairlines? which gives a sharper edge up?

I personally like this Andis trimmer with the T Blades as they let you see what your cutting better with the wide blades ... They cut exactly the same the only difference being the Professional 04603 Outliner II Personal Trimmer can have Guides attached to it and the T Blade trimmer cannot . Its really just a matter of personal Preference

The blade is the only thing that seperates both from each other.tthe fademaster has a surgical blade which gets close to the scalp for balding and fading, specifically. The masters are for all around haircutting. Same clippers, different blades. @coreym

I use another trimmer for edges but I don't see why it wouldn't create a great edge. Only concern with edge trimming is that the blade is very wide, not ideal for curves/bends in the hair line. Hope that was helpful.

only if you use a 0000 blade but you should consider and edger/outliner type of clipper if you want to shave. Styliner 2 or Outliner both by Andis.

These will do the job for a short shadow beard but the Andis master is a better clipper. I would not spend that kind of money on the Andis Master if you're only going to use them for your beard.

its ok for that. its not going to get you the cleanest look but it will knock down the hair. I use the andis gtx t-outliner as my main trimmer.

This razor is not equipped with a trimmer. I almost never used the trimmer on my previous razors, so I was unwilling t spend another $20 for the model that is equipped with a trimmer. RLK

Thanks for addressing that. According to the instructions, it says it uses Andis "GTO and GO" trimmer blades. It does not list a model number. I couldn't find this model during my research however they are the same as the all grey T Outliners. Hope this helps. Peace.

The review that I read and helped me make my decision stated that the AT30 was a better smoother shaver for the money difference. My husband has commented several times how smooth it is and how much he likes it and he has had several shavers from mid to top of the line. Hope this helps.

not sure of the difference between the two. But I can say that the Clipper I purchased is definitely not meant for extended use. If you plan to use it to shave dogs or do more than one haircut you might want to look into one of the more expensive models. For me this one works perfect I don't even ever have to use the turbo setting I just shave my head every 3 or 4 days so my Clippers don't see much abuse. One thing I've noticed is that if you do use the turbo setting it tends to get hot really fast. Good enough for my needs.

The Babylis Pro BABTT5585 is the best hairdryer I've ever used, and that includes many other similar type dryers. It is lightweight, quiet, has a long cord and simply makes my hair look its best, soft and silky and completely manageable. Before using this dryer, I never knew that a dryer could make such a difference in appearance and texture of the hair, I thought it was all about the products you had to use. Now I can honestly say that when I blow dry my own hair I like the results as much as when my hairstylist does it. That being said, my dryer is strictly for personal use, and although I've had it about a year, I can't speak to how long it will last in constant use in a hair salon. Although they say it is a professional dryer, like any electrical appliance, I guess the motor will eventually die, but that is going to be the case with any dryer, so far I've been ok, but again I've only had it ond year and use it for about 15 minutes 3-4 times a week. But at around $60 the cost is not prohibitive as a business expense if you had to replace it every couple of years, that's just my opinion, but I would definitely recommend it.

It won't cut as close as a good shaver, but it cuts closer than any trimmer that I've ever owned. Note that it will take more passes to trim your entire head since the cutting area is only 1-1/8" wide, and will not follow the contours of your head since it will not flex (as will a shaver). I don't shave my head, but it does a great job around sideburns and around the neckline. I would buy this trimmer again for my uses.

I am not a barber by any stretch of the imagination, but I've been cutting my hair for the last 25 years or so. I've used Andis Outliners for the past 25 years and I decided to try something different over the last year or so. I got tired of the Andis clippers getting hot. I tried the 8081s and they cut just fine and I only decided to get the 8290s because I saw where someone on Youtube say that the 8290s have metal screw holes, so stripping out the screw holes wouldn't likely happen. The 8290s cut fine as well. I'd recommend a T-Wide blade and you may have to adjust them to get a closer cut. I also like the Wahl Hero clippers and the Andis Superliners. I use the Superliners the most, followed by the Heros (I shave with them). I have sensitive skin and the 8290s and 8081 tend to agitate my skin if I use them too frequently. However, they work fine on my son.

its a little bit strong and kinda sharp.....for me i prefer to use it only with headI'm using the body groomer from Philips its very good and beware when you trim or shave sensitive areas the hair will grow sharp but in case the body groomer it grew normal and not pin pointing

i think it's a newer model w/a slightly shorter blade. i also went to their site f/comparison before purchasing. either way, you cannot to wrong w/these shears. it's battery lasts forever as you don't have to recharge often. cleanup is easy & if you purchase the extension arm, edging is a breeze. this is the best shears i've purchased.

I agree with Lulu this IS a very nice clipper. I'm also a professional groomer and use it everyday. Sounds like you may need some additional instruction. I also agree with Melissa in that you can check out youtube but also go to the Andis website to see what they have available. Wishing you best success.

Stay away from this blade. I have been shaving for years, and it chewed my head to pieces. Have you tried the Andis Headliner ?
