Hi.. I have been reading through clipper advice and don't see anything recent.
I just bought a Bravura Lithium Ion and I don't quite understand what combs to use with which blade setting. Alias's hair is short ( from the groomer) on the body. She uses a 7F on his body and we leave his legs blended into bell bottoms. His head I leave a topknot and long mustache & beard. So the only thing I need the clippers for is his body. The rest is scissors.

I put my new clippers on #9 blade setting and then put the smallest comb over it 1/8" I believe.

Here's the funny part. I got so into it...so happy I was doing the grooming that I failed to notice that no hair was coming off onto the towel on the table. This fun ( dah ) went on for 12 minutes. Now I'm not sure what setting to use?
I would appreciate any and all advice on how to use these 5 in 1's properly. Alias's hair right now is still very short from his last groom. About 2 months growth. I want to keep it 7F short.
