I hope this review can point out those differences. Things that might work for one might not work for the next guy. This way people can find the best one for them. The fact is that each trimmer has it’s things it does well and others that it doesn’t. If they all worked exactly the same then there would be no need to have more than one.

That’s is why there are so many different brands and models. But, to me there are already so many more reasons to go with the T Finisher that the quietness of the motor only tips the scales a bit further towards it being your best bet. Is it better to have quieter trimmers, Sure. So, if they were to be loud it shouldn’t be a deal breaker. I’ll repeat it for the second time in this Oster T Finisher review, you are only using trimmer for a few minutes at a time. It’s also noisier than Oster’s offer on the table. However, its motor leads to some overheating issues. Andis’ trimmer poster child is well-known for its power, yes. Where the Oster T trimmer excels is smaller surfaces and accuracy. Its T blade is narrower so you’ll have an easier time maneuvering around tinier, more delicate areas.Įspecially in comparison with the T Outliner, the T Finisher also stays quite silent and cool. Pictured below: Wahl’s Detailer and the GTX T-outliner model. This may seem like no big deal, but being economical with your steps really helps your flow during the haircut. With the flick of a thumb the T Finisher can be turned on or off and save you a few seconds that you won’t be fussing with them. This may seem like a little thing but when you are doing a couple dozen haircuts a day, you will want to be able to use one hand to do things. The other thing I really dislike about the Outliner is that the switch has to be turned to power it on and off. The casing of the Outliner is wider and not as easy to grip. The ergonomics are way better on the T Finisher however. Trimmers only get used for a few minutes at a time anyway so even the heaviest ones shouldn’t be uncomfortable to use. That isn’t to say that these would be too heavy or cause you any hand cramping or anything. It’s 7200 strokes per minute electromagnetic motor allows for easier gliding through thicker hair types and great fades. It is, however, somewhat heavier and bulky compared to the T Finisher. The T Outliner from goes all in in terms of power. It’s not that great for sensitive skin, though. What really matters here is what you intend to use these hair trimmers for.įor example, the Detailer is the most stylish, compact, and easy to zero gap of the three. And there’s a reason for that: they’re quite comparable with each other. We’ve actually included all three models in our best trimmers for barbers list. I wonder why they forget that Wahl’s in the mix too… For example, this limited edition with famous mustaches from :Ī few people have asked me whether Oster’s trimmer is better than Andis’ offer. What I like about this model is that you’re given freedom to pick from a few trimmer designs. If you have really big hands then you may think these are too thin, but I suppose that depends on the barber. Very nitpicky complaint there of the Oster T Finisher review, I know. The only downside is the cord is fitted funny on it and can sometimes knock it off balance when you are trying to do some detail work. They don’t ever feel awkward in the hand no matter how you like to grip them. Like balanced I guess is the word I am looking for.

ANDIS TRIMMER HEAD ON OSTER HOW TO
I don’t know quite how to explain it, but these feel very nicely weighted. In other words, don’t fret about maneuverability. Despite its bigger size than comparable trimmers, the T-Finisher has a narrow body. Adding a bit of weight to the grip you’ll get with it, it feels as a proper barber tool. The Oster T trimmer enters the stage clothed in a slightly bulky casing.
