Can the fade master replace an outliner/trimmer? I've heard you can do a whole haircut with just these clippers.

If your cut was faded down to the lowest setting(just the blade) ..then yes.But any longer length at the bottom you would need a trimmer.

The truth is that I think it will depend on your skill level. If you are an experienced barber and are well versed in line ups, you shouldn't have much issue. I personally have a trimmer in addition to these, because the fade master is bigger and heavier, it is a bit less forgiving and I would be more apt to make a mistake. If you are experienced, they most certainly can and will do the job

Well more than anything these machines are used for shaping up not really for shaving a whole head if you are looking for something like that u might want to try the Andis master clippers or even the whal seniors machines that are of great quality and are made for that type of job :) hope this helped

You could, but I would use a smaller trimmer for that. The 76's are some of the biggest hair clippers out there.

The same as a regular clipper, I have 3 of these and use them all day every day. What kind of dog do you have? I am a pet groomer!! They are great clippers!!

Yes if you attach one of the long combs to the clippers. But to avoid the look of a shaved haircut you would do a "scissors only" haircut.

If superliners are the same blades as for the t-outliner then you can use the gapper. But adjusting your blades yourself works the best in my opinion.

i don't think they pull but they don't cut very close if you are particular about that sort of thing....if not then i think youll be happy with them. they are lightweight and ive had them for years...they are the only trimmers that have ever held up for me...id do between 30-50 mens fades a week....they just don't get as close as the regular t edger (which ive had way more issues with)

Not sure Denise, but thinking the guides are meant to fit over blades of standard size. If you can blend well, hair nirvana will be reached! That said, can I interject that I LUV, LUV, LUV the close cropped shearing the 76 delivers time and again?? I bought the blade cleaning solution, and some blade lubricant (oil), and the thing just hums and buzzes me into a "recently got a hair cut" look. Of course, I'm bagging the loot I'd have spent at a clip joint. The stray wild hairs, and porcupine hairs, are sliced down, and I'm suddenly well-groomed. Just keeping the back and sides in check once a week is about all it takes. Splurge on a 76, it's cheaper in the long run than some crappy clippers, and nothing cuts as evenly.

I have not used the GTX outliner Trimmer, but I do own the Outliner II, and I haven't used my traditional razor since I received this trimmer. I have very, very thick hair and beard and this thing still shaves right to the skin, no trouble.

I think you should judge. I like these and they cut very well I use on toy poodle and very tight curls and cuts with ease. I suggest these as great battery time and you could if necessary use combs that come with it (4) and if shortest slows down clipper just start with biggest and work done, I'm sure this also will work. My thoughts for you get it and you will enjoy it much better than any other clippers to me.Good luck with your decision. Amazon will work with you .

I have really thick hair and I just move the clipper slowly through my hair. I also don't allow it to grow two inches and then expect to single-pass it to an eighth inch length. However, I am on my second unit. (They're inexpensive.) The first one wore out and began not cutting cleanly, despite the measures I took. I don't like that I can't find replacement blades. I also don't like how choked the unit becomes with my hair, but that didn't really seem to change how it worked. It's *ok*. Don't expect perfection, but if you go slowly and cut hair a little at a time, you'll be fine.

These are clippers not edgers/trimmers. Andis T outliners are PERFECT for what you're describing. Look into those. I use them and they are thee best!!!

It seems one cannot by anything related to this item, though I love it for ease of use, once you need new trimmer blades or anything else, you are out of luck! Sorry I bought it!

No. I don't recommend this trimmer. Mine broke at the linkage that drives the cutting blades. Seized-up, and would no longer work at all.

If you use any of these. You had better have a commercial/ pro grade trimmer. The husky and echo trimmers they sell at the box stores aren't pro grade

No. The Detailer is a trimmer and is meant to do edge ups/shape ups/line ups and neck shaves. The Magic Clipper is really meant to take down hair length and blend/taper/fade. The bare blade on the Magic Clip even zero gapped is sharp but a bit too large to get around the ears and neck line as well as the Detailer. The T-Wide blade on the Detailer is very sharp and small enough for corners and details.
