(More customer reviews)The Comb'N'Cut works as advertised, but the picture and the description above are misleading: You don't hold it down like the picture; you hold the head up. And it doesn't work like clippers, despite the similar-sounding description. Imagine it like this: Take regular clippers, rotate the blade head, make the blades (and the spaces between them) triple wide, slow down the motor, and adjust the blades so they (apparently) don't all close at exactly the same moment. Now you have an instrument that, because it's moving through the hair, cuts each bit at a slightly different instant! At the small scale of the blades, this "jagged cut" gives you a finely layered trim! (Looked at another way: The blades are perpendicular to the scalp, unlike clippers which run horizontally. The hair lays against the scalp, unlike clippers where you use hands or comb to pull it straight out. Thus you can't mistakenly cut a swath with it, but no crewcuts either.)
However, you can screw it up. To avoid this: (1) Keep your hands moving; never stop pulling the clippers until they're out of your hair. (2) Start the stroke away from a part (or cowlick), not right on top of it. (3) Oil the blades before you start work. (This is particularly important because you're already "pulling" on your hair while cutting it, so you need for the actual chomp to be as clean and quick as possible.)
I gave the Comb'N'Cut only 3 stars because it works, but I only used it once! For my do-myself haircuts, I prefer the vacuum-based Flowbee. For a crewcut, regular clippers would be cheaper and better. To do someone else's hair, it's a toss-up: If you're a klutz or a first-timer, this will allow you to do multiple passes, approximating the finished result. But if you have any skill with a styling comb, you can do more different styles, and cut faster, with regular clippers. But remember -- they advertise this unit for between-cuts maintenance. For that purpose, it's just fine, maybe almost 4 stars.
