My customers say I am nicking them when I am using the trimmer. Does anyone else have this problem

Only had one nick when I used it for the first time. Note: I only use the Cryonyx Narrow Hair Trimer Blade

how are you applying the blades to the skin? the bottom of the blade should be parallel to the skin not meeting it at an angle... make certain the blade is clean and there are no teeth out of place or bent down. a tooth bent up would stop the blades or be very noisy but one bent down would not interfere with the blades but would "stick" or nick the skin.. experiment on your own cheeks

I sure it's a possibility that is happening but the only way that is happening is the sides of the trimmer.

Only when the clippers grabs the hair rather than cut the hair. Happens infrequently so it's not an issue for me.

you are applying to much pressure,, use lightly, to avoid nicks, or use a comb.

Answer here...Don't get me wrong, I like the blades but they seem to dull more quickly than the Gillette blades I always used until the store I frequent quit selling them.

Mine does the same. I don't think it is an error, just a change since the trimmer continues to work.

I have not had that problem. Is it possible you are pushing down on the knife? Do not press on the knife, let the machine do the work.

I know once they start pinching that the blades are dull. I don't think the clipper is the problem, but that cannot be said for sure without seeing your clippers.

I have not had any problem and I have two of them. Maybe it's the cleaner you are using?

Your going up to fast. Slow down when your cutting. It's not a race. And if it's still leaving hairs then your not cleaning your blades right. Soak them in cleaner

This is not normal based on my experience. I used my first foil for 3-4 years before replacing it when I replaced the cutting blades. There was nothing visually wrong with the foil at replacement. It was cutting efficiently, also. The second foil has been in use for about 3 years and is still OK.

Jose, I will be happy to send you mine for free. Blades AND shaver. Only used 2 times and thoroughly disinfected after those uses. I am glad that this trimmer has worked out for you. It is my worst Amazon purchase in 12 years! I am serious about sending them to you free. If you can figure out how we can exchange info I will even pay for the stamp. Maybe we can do something with the wishlist feature for exchanging addresses.

I don't have that problem but the blades are the pits. Don't cut worth a damn.

I have not had that problem. I would check inside the blade chamber to make sure there is no residue sticking to the inside of it.

I have no problem with cuts on my next. However I have used Norelco for many years, so perhaps my skin has adapted.

Ifi is the blades, it sounds like you guys used the blades on dirty hair. If not, then I don't kn ow, but these blades do not last long if used on dirty hair. They are meant to be used on clean hair. If it is the clipper itself, I would remove the blade first to see if it comes on, IF the clipper turns on without the blade, then the blade is locked, and needs to b e unjammed bu pushing on the cutting edge while the clipper is running. If this doesnt work then you need to contact Wahl. I am a groomer and own 7 of these clippers and have never had that happen.

I just bought extra blades but I have cleaned and sharpened them before. Hope this helps.

Sorry, I have the same problem. My friend says the only fix is to get a slicer that is serrated.

Yes I have issues with nicks also, some were painfull. I've only used the razor once to shave my nuts, I'm going to be more carful next time I use it. Soap might work too. Probly just go slow and take your time.

I have experienced the same problem. Thought it have something to do with my cleaning people. I cleaned it out anyway, just to be safe.
