Flowbee Haircutting System with 1 Extra Set of 10 Piece Spacers Set | Self Haircut Trimmer to Cut Your own Hair at Home | Flowbee Hair Cutting Machine | Mini Vac Sold Separately

After 20+ years of faithful service one of the primary plastic spacers broke, so we went looking for a replacement. Since we use and depend on the Flowbee to cut our hair and save us big $$$, we decided to buy a whole new Flowbee system since it came with 2 complete sets of spacers. The new Flowbee system has changed a little after 20 years, but it still does a great job of cutting hair and with the 2nd set of spacers we can even continue to use the old system since it still works too. Hopefully the new system will last at least as long as our original one...

Works great but you need to spend time looking at the book to learn how to use it. My hair

I was able to give myself a good haircut the very first time I used it. It was remarkably easy and fast. And there was no hair to cleanup as it all ended up in my vacuum cleaner! The only thing I didn't like was the plastic attachments used to extend the length of each cut. These were clumsy to use, felt quite flimsy, and I worried I would accidentally break them (I didn't). It's a great product. I just wish they sold higher quality attachments that are easier to use.

I was skeptical at first but once I did a bit of research on youtube I took the plunge and bought a unit with extra attachments. Given what I currently pay for hair cuts I only have to use the flowbee 5 times to pay for the unit. The first time i cut my own hair using the flowbee resulted in a better haircut than my usual barber. I was tempted give the "ease of use" rating 4 instead of 5 stars but then realized it was just my own inexperience and that after a few haircuts I'd be an expert, so 5/5. My family mocked me for using the flowbee, now they all want to borrow it. My only regret is I didn't buy my flowbee 20 years ago, i would have saved a fortune.

I had and still do an original and this one has a cheaper hose that has already kinked on me.

I used to laugh at these things when I saw the TV commercials, but I have a son with autism who absolutely can't stand having his hair cut. I thought this might be a good solution. He still hates having his hair cut, but at least he has a cute style now, instead of the gapped up mess I used to leave him with. My husband and older son also use the Flowbee and it's saved us a lot of money on haircuts.

***Update: it worked great for a few times, and i've oiled the blades as normal, but since then it would only give me split ends, and I mean 100%. It literally looked like i had salt and pepper hair everywhere on my head, because as i discovered, split ends appear white! Haven't used my flowbee for 3 yrs since then but going to give it another try as i have to test my theory whether a stronger vacuum will prevent this issue. TBC***5 stars as it does what it is engineered to do. However, I'd add one safety note:1. If you have an upright vacuum and use its flexible hose with the flowbee, make sure to keep the vacuum off of carpet. As I am but a vacuum novice, there was one time when...after 20 minutes of operation (and vacuuming that one spot of carpet), the roller on the vacuum overheated so much that the plastic undercarriage melted into a gnarly piece with smoke fumes everywhere.Other than that, the flowbee cuts to my style, 2-4 inches, just fine when cutting cleanly washed and dry hair as per the manual.

My wife, who has long hair bought this for herself. Now I have to cut her hair before she uses it. She likes to vary her hair length seasonally, so 1/2" at a time would take forever going from winter to summer. The product is not advertised with a limit for the length of hair it will cut.We're disappointed that it is so limited in its capabilities. We paid $260 for something that is less functional than many much cheaper products.
