How long will my Flowbee last?

The Flowbee is designed to give hundreds of precision cuts if properly cared for. It is recommended to change the blades every couple of years.

Will the Flowbee work with any vacuum?

The Flowbee works with 90% of those vacuums with a hose attachment capability. The power output needs to be 3 hp. or 8 amps. The more power your home vacuum has the more efficiently your Flowbee will operate. Also great for Central vacuums. Flowbee recommends the use of its super mini-vac.

What lengths will the Flowbee cut my hair?

The Flowbee cuts hair lengths from 1/2" to 6" long at any 1/4" increment . Additional spacers may be purchased if you desire longer lengths of hair. You should not try to cut more than 1/2" in length at a time.

Flowbee T-shirts available.

A while back a came across a web site that carries t-shirts featuring the Flowbee. I was quite surprised that these were available. I guess there are some real die-hard fans!

The website is called 80stees.com. They have two shirts. One is called Hair By Flowbee t-shirt and the other is The Best Sucking Haircut in Town Flowbee t-shirt.

Any difference between the Flowbee and the Flowbee for dogs?

Here is another user comment regarding the Flowbee...

"I have previously used the FLOWBEE for people and the FLOWBEE for dogs. No real difference that I can see. The product serves well for cutting my hair and that of my dog. The hose coupling on the new one is nice. Don't have to use the rubber tube and a rubber band. I did not find many points of sale on the web, and you offered the best delivered price I found."

My response...

The Flowbee and Pet Flowbee are quite similar. However, the Pet Flowbee has a special attachement for cutting your pet's hair.

Florence Bouvier cuts my hair!

The following is a comment from a customer regarding the Flowbee...

"I liked everything! it's easy to use, i can cut my hair any time i want to, and i save about $35 a month on haircuts. I just reset the length so now i have a different cut, and it's very convenient to reset for any length. I love my flow-bee, whom i call "florence b." or "florence bouvier" so my friends still think i'm going to an overpriced stylist. Some people think it';s a joke, so there's a little stigma associated with it. Perhaps a marketing strategy based on "having your stylist there any time, night or day" would help this. it's a great product, but people still think of it as kind of "trailer park". Delivery was fast and easy, no problems whatsoever. "
