I'm looking mainly for a back of the neck trimmer that cuts close and straight without cutting the skin. Does this product deliver?

Yes! It's a great product. Charge lasts forever. Cuts very close without cutting ur skin.

I go to a barber that uses the exact same model for the back of the neck and sideburns. He was one of the reasons I bought it.

This Razor is good and will not cut you but it doesn't cut s close as a razor blade or a foil shaver. I would prefer a trimmer with a wider blade to trim the back of my neck, to keep a straight line. I hope this helps.

There is a precision trimmer that slides out the rear similar to those on previous Norelco models for sideburns, nose hairs, etc. if that is what you mean by a body groomer.It is noisier than on my previous shavers, but works very well.

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.

No. It's just a trimmer for sideburns or cutting around the ears. or cleaning up the neck area.

I have had the trimmer for over a year and I'm a novice at-home groomer. I think it would be perfect, but be careful. My suggestion would be to experiment with the trimmer by going very lightly over their delicate faces and don't repeat the same areas otherwise you will scrape the skin. I didn't realize how razor sharp it was and went over an area twic despite being light to the touch and a scratch from the razor developed. But this trimmer is designed for tight areas. Practice on the ears and feet first. Good luck!

The BodyCruzer can provide as close a shave as you desire. It comes with three trim guards, which allows for different trim lengths. I generally stick with medium guard and have not experienced any problems with nicks or cuts.

No, this is intended to remove hair from the roots. But, if you use it in the opposite way (instead of using it as indicated, you turn it over and move it against the hair but with the back side) it does cut your hair. Yet it is not intended to do this (it is merely a hack) so if you want to trim you hair, I'd suggest you get a trimmer; specially if the trimming is for hair face.

I often used this trimmer to shave my face but I didn't need a close, smooth shave (like a razor or dedicated electric shaver). I don't remember if it came with a foil (face) attachment - I just used the trimmers and wouldn't use the foil anyway since the heads are too small. I've owned several brands of trimmers like these and this one trimmed the closest to the skin. However, this trimmer didn't last very long. I bought two of these and they both lasted about a year (one a little longer and one a little shorter). The extension definitely helped to reach farther you but it didn't extend far enough for me so that was more of a tease. I moved onto another shaver (wahl) and I'm much happier with it, even though the trimmer doesn't trim quite as close and it doesn't extend (I use a manual back shaver where the razor inserts into that). the wahl might have come with a foil face shaver (not sure) but I never wanted to use it. I don't work in an office job anymore so a 5 o'clock shadow in the morning is ok for me. Hope this helps.

This is a trimmer, and not a razor, so don't expect close shaves! Depending on the length that you cut your hair, you may experience some itchiness. Take your time down there!

Although I haven't tried with this product, the reason any of the body trimmers advise against using it to shave above the neck is that the hair on the face is much different than hair elsewhere. It can dull and dent the blades designed to shave other places. I'm sure you don't want to use dull and bent blades where this razor is intended to go.

Yes, absolutely. The box comes with several spacers for different desired length of hair you want. It will do a 1/2" haircut no problem. It also comes with a tapered spacer which I use above the ears and the back of the neck for a closer cut at those areas which also works great. I have used the cutter 3 times now and each time my haircut looks excellent. It's very consistent due to the spacers. It's great being able cut my own hair and not relying on anybody else. I love that independence. The money saved pays for the unit in 8 ($12) haircuts. Free haircuts after that! Trust me, you will like this unit. The Flowbee came out 30 years ago and I can still remember the original & somewhat corny commercials. Back then it was mostly dismissed as a TV gimmick type product. But I think the Internet/You-tube has breathed new life into the sales of this product. I wish I bought it 30 years ago. Hope that helps you pull the trigger to get one.

I've actually used it as a facial trimmer when I'm in a hurry and/or too lazy to get out a real trimmer (though it could cause some irritation around the neck area). Don't get it for your back if you have more than a few upraised moles (unless you like shredding them for cheap and aren't worried about cancer).

Razor works great on face and neck. I used it on longer hair on the back of my neck recently so I think it may work well on your head. Give it a shot. Worse case return it.

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.

i never use a guard and have not cut myself. but this trimmer does not cut hair very short.

No it will leave stubble. To get the area you want completely bald you will need a men's or women's electric razors made for that or you could just shave the area with a regular Double edge razor. It does do good job with cutting your hair down to as close as possible. it is a good little machine . I have had mine now 2 years and is still as sharp as the day I received it. It also comes with smaller battery operated AA size razor that will cut the hair closer!

I looked up blading clippers and those seem to cut closer. I thought i really liked this product but after using it a few times ive notice it misses alot of hair and have to do it more than once.
