Can this item be used to trim only a little bit of hair? I don't keep my hair too short. Thank you.

Yes. It'll go all the down to little more than a stubble, where you can still see hair, or with the attachment, completely bald. I love it!

No it can be used to cut the hair to any level of your choice, it`s the most useful hair clipper I have ever owned. You wont regret buying it,

I don't think it will do the job as the instruction says that if the whisker/hair is over 1/32 of an inch you need to use clippers to get it that short before the razor will pick it up.

I don't believe so. It's really not very good at "lifting" the hair up before it cuts, so it won't cut evenly unless it's set for really short hair. Number 2 setting doesn't even cut evenly for me.

yes of course... but it's not very powerful and cheaply made... if you use it once a week, don't expect it to last very long... it's best for trimming tiny hairs, not big swaths of hair.

It will trim it as low as the blade will go--1/4 inch or so. After that use, I imagine you would shave your scalp.

In this case you will need to go to hairdresser to blend the part of it with your hair (and probably cut part of it at your hair length). If you have thin hair, it might not work, but if your hair is thick enough, then I think it would not be a problem.

Yes - in short. We use this on our Siamese, which has medium/short hair, and sheds like crazy. Works very well, even though, I would imagine, it would work even better on longer hair. The bristles are not too firm or long for short hair, and would be best suited for removing excess fur. The only thing I would suggest on very short haired cats is too be gentle with the brush. The bristles are not coated or tipped, so could scratch with firm use.I love this product, and my cat loves it too.

My hair is of medium thickness, and falls to my shoulders, and the waver works great! If your hair is really thick, you could just take smaller sections of hair.

I actually bought it when I ended up with a really short haircut. The salon lady used one to curve hair around into little curls. I only used it a couple times. My hair isn't usually quite that short. I was OK with it when I used it. Karen

Right now, I only use it as a beard trimmer. I like the length with just the cutter, so I don't use any of the combs that come with it. Someday, I will get my spouse to try it on my hair. The zero cut is not exactly zero. You will need to loosen the screws and adjust the cutters to get it to a zero cut. I have left mine along. It is close enough for me.

Hi, I don't know why it couldn't be used for short curly hair. The plates can get close to the root of my hair.

I have a pixie cut and it works great keeping it trimmed between cuts. Just use caution not to give yourself a bald spot.

I would say based upon my ability to use it (and I've used these for years now...) that these are really only shapers and shavers, not hair shorteners. They don't have the ability to trim down the length of your eyebrow hair. Also, without significant practice, they tend to also take off indiscriminate amounts of hair, which can be really unfortunate! Don't use these to make your eyebrow hair shorter! I would recommend going to a salon for shorter eyebrow hair!

Even though this is not the main reason I bought this clipper -I did use it in this way when I first got it and it works really well. And based on reviews of the balding clipper -I think there is less likely hood of cutting yourself. But since I haven't used the balding clipper I am not sure if it will give a closer trim.

While I have never cut my hair that low, the smallest spacer is 1/2 inch. I do not see why you could not work you way down to that level if your hair is longer now. My experience is that you should not take off to much at a time. No more than an inch, otherwise it may pull your hair and cause some discomfort.

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.

I don't believe you can, it doesn't remove the entire hair like a razor. I believe you'll need to search for something else.
