I started out cutting hair with the 76 a long, long time ago because while the other barbers in the shop were guessing where to put their levers, I was right on point with the fades and I could finish faster and use less actual effort. But when the Supra ZR 2 came out I put down the antique. It just doesn't have the power of the Supra ZR 2, and not having the cord is just so much better. So now all the machines I use are cordless- even my backup clipper and trimmer.
I have the Oster model 10 which was a re-release of the model that was replaced by the classic 76. Oster also puts out the Titan which is basically a two speed version of the 76. The low speed makes it a little more forgiving. It runs about $145 - $200+ depending on the package deals.
I have the supra zr and oster 97(the European version of the 76) I love them both especially the noise of the oster there is also the model 10s a smaller version and the oster octanes but there even more expensive than the supra
😅 oooopps, I work at a high end kid salon and almost everyone has the classic 76's . If you wouldn't recommend these for kids, what would you recommend
I love your review and I would like your input ... I've been using andis bgrc for the last 7 years with metal blades up to 3 1/2 & down AS WELL, as plastic gaurds up to 5 or 6. My clipper is old not working properly although I love it.. So my question is what would be a good replacment
