Beard Trimmer

[Randell]

Does any one know where to purchase a beard trimmer. Mine just packed it in. A cordless one preferable, but a corded hair clipper would do. I read some one had suggested Boots in Chiang Mai but I am here in Chiang Rai. And have looked in a Boots but not all any suggestions?

They had several options a few days ago

Try BigC, I bought one in my town. Worth a try, 295 bht and works fine. Robinson's wanted daft money.

Agreed they are quite high but it is all imports.

I bought a Philips trimmer in Singapore 5 years ago and it is the best purchase I have mad in my life. I charge it once a year to trim my goatee on a weekly basis. I am almost in tears that it is so good.

I had one of those too, cost about 15 quid (I think), it lasted 10 years......

So Randell, did you pick up a new beard trimmer today?

[Randell]

No I haven't yet, did look in Robinson and saw their selection good quality. Will continue with a few other spots before buying. Thanks for asking.

By the way I enjoy the little get together yesterday even though I was late and had to run early. It was nice to meet a few of you. And like some else has said put a face to some names. All the best in the New Year to all.

Why don't you just use a bread knife (that one with the serrated edge). Is moving your arm to trim your slices of bread too much effort?

That was beard trimmer not bread trimmer Toybits ha-ha. I finally bought one at a barber and hair saloon supply shop. It's located right across from Meng Rai Statue. If your heading west across the intersection its about 10 meters in on the left side. I ended up buying one from China but it is a very professional one and only 900Baht. Can use it with a cord or cordless it came with two batteries and assorted attachments far less than at Central. They also had European and American ones but more expensive. Quite a good shop staff very helpful.

900 baht and likely can't even cut a baguette with it!

Best shop where the pros buy their gear is directly opposite Wat Pra Singh near the train library.

They also have a sharpening service for trimmers and scissors.

[sceadugenga]

That's interesting because I've been after a pair of scissors for a while.

So coming from the market the Wat is on your right and the shop is on your left?

[WitawatWatawit]

the OP didn't specifically say he wanted it for his beard, just a beard trimmer. It's delicate.

I think most use scissors and then razor

[AjarnP]

Yes Scea. The shop is opposite the main gate of Wat Pra Singh. Wat Pra Singh is in between the main police Stn and Overbrook.

[sceadugenga]

I bought a pair in the main market a month ago but the quality isn't really all that good.

I'll check this place out.
