👋 Hey, thanks for the suggestion👍. It would depend on the amount of usage the trimmer delivers and for how long. This would determine when the blade should be replaced because '6 months' is an arbitrary number. Now, if the user trims/shaves facial hair once a week or 52x a year, why would one replace the blade🤔 every 6 months? Please explain your reasoning for 6 month replacement?
Ive had my gold fx trimmers for 3 years and havent changed blade yet. Im booked solid 5 days a week so theyve seen a ton of volume they still crunch like 1st day i got em and i know exactly how they feel when i use them i wont change blades untill they start snagging. You change blades when you feel they need it
Each one teach one👍. TH-cam is a wealth of knowledge and has got me out of predicaments time after time💪 Thanks. Which Babyliss trimmer did that video help you to fix??
I had to put the long screws in first to line up then I had to hold it down tightly to to keep the spring from popping up, very frustrating, but it helped to put it together easier.
Thank u so much for this video!!!!! Iv been at it since like 12pm trying to put mine back together! I feel like I was being trolled while watching other ppls videos on how to fix them!!!!
Ok I think there are some lo pros out there with the cam backwards. Took one apart from stock. Fliped the cam over and boom that mid dot on it facing bottom works way better.
If u look in side the gapping tool it has a piece of plastic that holds the tool in place. It is one one side only so the side without the piece gets pushed out more .
@@islord999 the zero gap tool has an area for the Allen screw driver to pop into. In mine, I had to pull it out of the zero gap tool when I got it out of the box. Can be helpful for keeping stuff together and not getting lost in the drawer.
Thank you so much. Wondeful video. Unfortunately, I dropped my machine a few months back. I can't seem to figure out why it's not cutting any longer. I can't seem to get it to cut. There is practically no signs that it was dropped or of any damage. It's expensive and I don't know if I should replace the blade if I just don't know if this is actually where the issue lies. Thank you in advance for an excellent video and for any additional help!
Im not lyin when i say, when i hooked the gold part up to the front of the lil springs, it took me over 3 hrs to screw it in bro🤦🏾♂️damn neck was killin me cause i was lookin down for that long man
Just the video I needed, i got the silver fx and they started making loud noises like rattling. I took apart the blade and was having trouble with the spring part when putting back together. Going to try this again!
Great content you got my like! I like your idea of loctite and using a magnifying glass. Something so simple yet so helpful and practical. I’m heading to harbor freight ASAP today! Lol. Thanks again.
I bought a brand new golf fx blade and adjusted it like I have done in the past and for some reason it’s missing hair and the line are shit, I’ve got the blade so perfect with adjusting it the right way but still missed hair. Any help would be appreciated
🤨 Hey, I hate buying something and right out of the box it performs like crap. Might be a longshot but try running 30-45mins to set/break the blades in?
Hey so I just got my trimmer and the black blade or still blade idk how else to call it, it shifts like it doesn’t stay in the middle (well aligned) I believe that’s what you were trying to fix too right? Any ideas why or how to fix? Any help anybody will be appreciated. TIA!
With all 3 parts in place, try inserting the long screws thru the blade and into the spring retainer first. This will stop the assembly from sliding out of place. You'll only have to focus on the the screw. Good luck!
🤔hmm, I've never had to search for the Fx Trimmer zero gap tool before, so, I can't even tell you. But there's good news 😁 and that is if you can get yourself a 1.5mm or maybe a 2mm Allen key you can zero gap using that alone.👍👍 Let me know if you can get your hands onto those 2 Allen keys, ok?! Good Luck bro 💪 🙏 👍
Try looking at the zero gap tool. It’s the handle. I just ordered some babyliss trimmers and was looking for the screw driver. On mines the screw driver is black and not yellow.
Try adjusting it to the point a little before it zero gaps it bites the skin when the bottom blade is sticking farther then the upper blade and try not adding too much oil this may be the reason its moving up and biting the skin maybe?
Hi, I’ve been having extreme trouble with getting this blade to screw In because of the reaction of the spring, I’m unable to get the screw to screw into the still blade. Please help if possible.
Hmm, your trimmers were running mint. You happened to dropped them. Since then you have changed the blade and now the new blades are pulling hair. 🤔 How many hours are on the new blades?
@@DelaceLeCoiffeur zero , its more so catching the skin they are aligner and not crooked but for some reason they catch skin its ok when i try it on arm hair its a chameleon fx trimmer but with the gold blade since Babyliss doesn’t support anything in Bulgaria you cant buy the chameleon blade
Hola bro ! Cómo solucionaste el problema de que la cuchilla se mueva ? No sé qué es el pegamento que le pone en el vídeo ni sé si funciona ! Por favor me podrás pasar el dato ?
Hi and thanks for a great video 👍🏻 Just a quick question is this trimmer worth the price or would you recommend something else? Just need it to cut my always short hair real short and trim edges of me beard..
It's fire bro, I use it to line up my beard and it looks like I got it done professionally. Definitely worth it over going to the barber every couple weeks.
You asked the question and the 1st thing that entered my mind was PRICE! The Wahl Detailers is a hard tool to beat, but DO NOT DROP THEM! They are fragile.
delace1111 yea bro I ended up gettin the babyliss pro FXs. I actually got them brand new for free cause amazon delivered late but i thought they lost the package so I had contacted them

Good day, you should provide and breakdown in the caption of the tools you used and how to get them, I'm from the Caribbean and I got hell to figure out what loctite is... Question though, what's the situation if you've got to remove them?
How did I miss that opportunity to link loctite in the description 🤦🏾♂️ I will definitely add a link to the product now. Situation: Cutting blade sliding OUT OF ALIGNMENT due to oil, heat and vibration.
Yea, I wouldn't use loctite on that, he may not get it back off when needed. They do make different strengths, if u try it use the weakest kind of loctite, they have different strengths, coded with different colors.
I need some advice. I dropped my baby bliss and it’s making a loud noise & cuts on one side only. How do it deal with that? Should I buy a new blade or adjust the one of I have cause I don’t see any cracks in the blade
You probably have to tighten the screws. it sucks you dropped them but I went through the same thing lol. I took mine apart & seen no problem but noticed the screw was slightly loosened so I took time to tighten every screw near the blade. If that doesn’t work then idk what’s wrong lol good luck!
Can u help me. I have problem a Screw on the left side that allows to zerogap machine so har d I couldn’t twist ii tried so hard and now crewdriver just run throught because hole on the crew became bigger and i cant do anything
i got a new gold fx trimmer with the stock gold fx707z blade, it looked to already be zerogapped from factory, i noticed when i use it on really small neck hairs, it seeems to kinda grab/pull, but only when the hair is super tiny, kinda like when its trimmed the day before and just grows a tiny bit. it seems to cut other hairs fine. is this normal? i assume when the hair is super small its kinda coarse, which is why this blade cant cut it properly hence the grabbing/pulling? unless im mistaken. thx
Hey mang, I wouldn't give up on those fxs' just yet. If you say they're new, give the blades some time to break-in and settle. They should get better with every cut. Last thing, I did find that they grabbed vellus hair, so I use my slimlines in those cases. Good luck 👍
@@DelaceLeCoiffeur ty so much dw i love em im keeping, also is the blade supposed to be warm after 5 mins of usage? or does that just mean they need oil
I bought mine off Amazon and it didn't come with the yellow screwdriver but it's perfectly Zero gapped. Idk if that's an Amazon thing or they just figured everyone was ganna do it anyway.
The Allen screw on the right side of mine seems like it’s stripped or something. I can’t seem to get it loose using the provided Allen key sent from babyliss 😫
Mine was stripped to so i put a drop of super glue in the screw and put the lil screw driver that comes wit it in the screw wit the super glue still wet . I held the screw driver for a lil let it dry a bit then once fully dry i was able to turn the screw it worked good
gracias hermano, la habia desarmado para limpiarla y luego no sabia como armarla, hasta que vi el video, soy chileno y a pesar del idioma entendi muchas gracias

Go to a hardware store and match the one screw you have to a new one and buy that screw. I had to do that cost me only $1 for a set of screws.

Easy to fix it or So? I recently have bought it.
Cool bro
Lost my hex key no other hex key works so I had to use mini vice grips to loosen. Bad design choice for the screws.
Hello my babyliss detailers out the box , after been turned on the blade slants? It goes completely uneven , what can I do to fix it
Easiest option: return it!
I have this trimmer , straight out of the box it pulls hair and also bites the skin . I have tried everything to fix it and it is still doing it .
Try adjusting it to the point a little before it zero gaps it bites the skin when the bottom blade is sticking farther then the upper blade and try not adding too much oil this may be the reason its moving up and biting the skin maybe?
Yo the Philip screw (the hard one😂) does the small metal screw go in aswell?
Thanks bro
👌We help each other out! Cheers 🍻

What happens if the screws are worn down and can’t take the screw off?
I hope that this would never happen, but it should be an easy fix. It would also depend on which screws were worn down. 🤔
