lol been there. So before I attempt to answer this let me qualify myself by saying that I have the babyliss fx3 trimmer, the wahl hi viz, and TPOB X trimmer. The wahl hi viz and TPOB X cut like a laser. And I’m 95% sure that TPOB blades are compatible with babyliss trimmers. If that’s true, then try the TPOB blade on your babyliss (either the Gold “psycho” blade or their regular graphene “psycho” blade). I’ve found that the gold blades (which are coated in titanium or DLC or something like that) glide across the skin much smoother than a black graphite blade. That’s why my babyliss fx3 trimmer with its gold blade has been the best bald head shaving experience for me ever bc of how comfortable and smoothly it glides across my head. But it will not cut as closely as the TPOB or wahl. I tried to zero gap it very close but it ends up scratching. So I’d go with a gold blade replacement if I was you. I know babyliss makes some but I haven’t tried them so I can’t speak to them. I can speak to the TPOB psycho blade though and feel like that one might give you the results you want to see. If not then you can always return it if you’re buying from Amazon.

Also ty for the response man ! Appreciate the love

Oh no. I think it's because of the waxy texture of the dust jackets. For me, there are tiny little clear air bubbles, or small spots of clearness. With all 3 box sets I got, each set had these small clear markings. I guess that's just a byproduct of the waxy/textured dust jackets. I really like the dust jackets tbh. How they look and feel. I do not read these ones however. I bought the mass market paperback trilogy for reading.

@@iconikreviews5377 yes the Dustjacket is like 50% the reason for buying the book, as I lookd at it with less light the pictur is not gone were the fingerprint is, but the surface there is so reflectif that it becomes hard to see wehn there is to much direkt light, so I am going to send this one back and order a new one were I will remove the dustjacket until I read the book so I can Display it in good shape wehn I am done.

@@cutcontent5210 Haha, so you’re going to read it and send it back for a refund when you’re done?

@@iconikreviews5377 no, I am going to send it back tomorrow then order an new book were I will remove the dustjacket then read it and after I am done with the whol book I put the dustjacket on again for Display.

@@iconikreviews5377 just found out, if you wipe over the fingerpeints they go away and the cover looks normal again so everything is fine.

Thank you, you as well

Of course not. It’s so overpriced even on “sale.” Either way, I returned it and never looked back.

@@iconikreviews5377 Before I got this, I used a wax warmer(from good will), and a can of barbersol with aloe. Used a little water and mixed it. It worked fine, but it didn’t look professional in the barbershop!

Yeah this lather machine is not something I’d recommend at this price. I bought it for myself but I sent it back and so relieved. But the hi viz is my top beard trimmer after testing out 7 other ones. You can be laser accurate. The babyliss fx3 is my go to head shaver.

^ great point

So which one would you recommend for shape ups line up ? Basically sum hitters not so much bulk removal

@@victorortega2718 Standard gold blades is my favorite. Just make sure you buy it from a real dealer. I've bought two from amazon and they've been dull asf..

Why? Was the original paint faded?

Mondo

No problem! Well I haven’t used those blades personally but the difference is evident in just the names themselves. So the graphite ones are one of the more cheaper blade materials that they sell. And the DLC which stands for something like “diamond-like coating” is a more premium version of the blade. They are supposed to also last longer and stay sharper for longer. They are usually coated in a gold titanium (but I think they can be black too) and I can tell you they feel a lot smoother and glide across the skin much nicer. The usual black or graphite blades tend to feel more like they drag across the skin and just feel somewhat like they are sticking to my skin. Let me know if you have any more questions.

Oh no! I hope you got your money back or perhaps you can pick up the dune books for cheaper during these holiday sales. I have an interesting update since I posted this video: As I said before, the 3rd box set that arrived was in perfect condition which was a relief. So naturally my responsibility was to return the first 2 box sets back to Amazon and I did exactly that. Guess what? They treated one of those box sets as a full refund instead of a replacement. I have no idea why. So I basically got this box set for free.

@@iconikreviews5377 "refund", that's GREAT!!! 😁 I got my money back, but I really wanted the book, to read a story of 10000 years in the future, or something like that what it is about...

Hi, yes for the cost of this box set there shouldn’t be any colour defects or imperfections. I probably ranted too much in my video but I was just angry bc they are cheaply made yet so expensive. Aside from that though they aren’t as bad as I initially thought. They look amazing on the shelf. I bought this box set in paperback as well for reading. I enjoy collecting nice books and displaying them.

Glad this video helped. That’s why I made it. Well, the fine tooth blade is made of graphite which is more on the cheaper side of babyliss’s blade offerings. The gold one is coated in gold titanium and DLC so they are supposed to stay cooler. Other than that they are the same and that annoys me. The fine tooth blade should be smaller but it’s the same as the standard tooth. In all my testing so far of many trimmers (about 7 different models and brands), 6 of them all have the same blade design. The only different one is the wahl hi viz. I’m a huge fan of its blade. It is super thin and narrow/precise. It is the closest thing to a wet shave in electronic trimmer form. I just tested the stylecraft saber today, and I have the TPOB X and TPOB ghost x coming tomorrow. The more trimmers I try the more I realize how special the wahl hi viz is.

@@iconikreviews5377 there’s some really good trimmers in the ones you have mentioned , one that came up as being very smooth is the cyborg , I left comments on here with various barbers that have used both the hi viz and the cyborg and all so far have said the cyborg interestingly. At £230 and £200 each I can’t justify both & I’m not sure you can return once these items have been tested by simply picking one or the other. I also have the wahl detailer cordless (maroon colour) and the blades on that are super smooth (compared to my baByliss skeleton) so maybe this is trademark of wahl, the hi viz is quite out there and very different for wahl from what I’m reading in it as most people say there are old school company , with other companies like saber there units being more advanced… obviously after reading your findings I’m still none the closer to deciding which to go for😂😂 also you have no alliances to any companies just a regular guy picking the best unit.

Mine are not the fleece version. The inside and insole is a red flannel pattern though, pretty cool. Haven’t worn em yet.

@dustymetso Checked my phone I don’t have a pic sorry. But trust me they’re all nice and blue on each book unlike the faded ones on the first 2 I got. Thanks

Tbh I should probably make a new video on these I feel I was way too harsh lol.

Congrats! My Messiah is the best of the 3. The blue on the other two are acceptable and not as bad as your first two sets.

Happy the 3rd replacement was good enough for you, I ordered my 3 books separately and only had an issue with Dune Messiah in which my dust jacket had a sticky residue on it, it cleaned off well enough but I complained anyway and Amazon issued a refund without a return. They seem to have goofed though and issued a full refund for the entire order, so I got all 3 books free it seems.

Don't think you ranted too much. We all work hard to earn our money and we want to know it's money well spent when we buy something

Oh. I personally wouldn’t be into that. As long as you are reading and enjoying it is all that matters. I just started reading The Godfather then I will prob go back into LOTR or perhaps book 1 of Dune.

yes

Is his "condition", like, OCD? 🫥

"Yeaahhh, Milton, we're gonna have to move you downstairs."

Agree with the folio society edition. They are very nice (if also very expensive)!

Your call. I was probably a little too negative in the video. Tbh they look really nice and great on the shelf. I bought the paperback trilogy which I’ll be reading while these are a collector item for me personally. If you love the franchise and you’re an avid reader go for it. If you can find them on sale then even better. I do think their regular price is high but up to you.

Lol shut up….

Yeah I love it. Rare find

Yes it is

@@iconikreviews5377 thx. sounds very good

@@G299 Thanks! Yes it does and sounds best the tighter it is

Awesome speakers for gaming and movie watching

I don’t speak Spanish I think you’re asking the cost? Sale price in Canada $160. Regular price $240 Canadian.

Depende donde la compra

One from Amazon, one from Costco (Canada).

Congrats you’ll love it

@@iconikreviews5377 thank you 🙏

Well I can tell you you’ll feel it in your bones even without bass boost. Level 1 is intense. And level 2 shakes the house. I have two of these partyboxes now. Thanks for the comment.

It's called "Driving 150 (Trap Remix)" on the album "Bass Boosted HD" on apple music

It's nice eh

It's truly unbeatable I got 2 it's out of this world awesome

Yes it is amazing I got 2 and pair them together for more coverage throughout the house and was a fantastic deal. Since buying the jacked the price another $100 but luckily I got a good sale price
