Andis Oster Barbers and Hairdressers Oster or andis?
Im a hairdresser, not a barber- so I only do about %30 mens cuts. I dont want to have to change my blades every time I need a different guard- isnt that what you have to do with the oster76'? They look like they would do great- just a lot of work. Ive tried various whal clippers and have had some bad luck. I need something that can cut really coarse hair-asian and african american hair.Has anyone used the andis- master improved? Please help- i dont want to buy another pair of expensive and crappy clippers.
I have been a barber cosmotologist for 11 years, clientelle is 80 percent male. I have used both, and I have to say if you keep the andis master oiled, they last forever, and give a great cut, I use the red plastic universal guards, and have never had a problem. (unlike when I used a whall and the guards left lines in the cut) the oster does need the blades changed, (of course, the red universal does fit, but the cut is more easily blended with the blades, might be a better choice if you don't do a lot of men) my advise, buy one of each off of ebay, and use them, the oster is heavier than the andis master, and that might affect your cut. I know after a long 10 hour day, my arm felt like rubber after using the oster. Personally, I own at least 3 of both (yes, I am a clipper junkie) and switch off through out the day. hope this ramble helped.
