Beard Trimmers

I'm looking for a new one, anybody have any recommendations?

 

IMO, the most important thing is that the height setting is secure and does not change while in use.

I've never had one with a vacuum, but theI like the idea.

 

About two years ago I got a simple beard trimmer kit from Walmart for about 15 or 20 bucks. It's similar to the trimmers they use at places like Supercuts when they trim your sideburns and the back of your neck.

 

It's serving me pretty well and I use it to trim my moustache, goatee, and sideburns, then I use a regular old-school razor for the rest. My only problem with it is that the attachment that you use to change the size of the hair on your beard/goatee isn't too good, it doesn't really do anything to bring the hair to the trimmer blades. I guess if you find a trimmer with a vacuum function that it wouldn't have that problem.

 

Anyway, I'm not sure what brand name it is, I just don't remember. But it is very good with shaping goatees, just not with the thickness.

I also bought a $20 Norelco one from Walmart many years ago. I wouldn't recommend it for any precision facial hair work, but it gets the job done.

 

Norelco... that sounds EXTREMELY familiar. I think it might've been one of the two I was deciding between.

 

I'm actually about to shave right now, (yea, I'm standing shirtless in the bathroom typing this on my cell phone like a nerd) and I looked at my trimmer and noticed the brand name is Wahl.
