Can these be used as a main clipper for home haircutting, or are they for beards mainly?

This could absolutely be used for home haircutting.

How often do you have to replace the body hair shaver?

If you mean the Gillett Fusion shaver I change the blade about every other month or so , BUT, I only shave my face not my body…If you mean the individual attachments for the Braun electric shaver then I clean them out after every use.

 how is this model’s body hair trimmer for pubes and sensitive areas? Does it nick and cut? Does it give close shave there? Thanks and regards.

The MGK3980 is perfect for grooming more sensitive areas. For best results, be sure to select a fixed comp length. Trim your pubic hair first to prevent clogged blades. Before shaving, shower to soften hair. If you don’t usually, we suggest lathering up. This will hydrate hair, enhance shaver glide and protect your skin. As always, shave with light pressure and moisturize as needed.

Does this do a good job on hair?

Yes! We cut each other’s hair during the COVID-19 quarantine and we are both satisfied with our cuts. No snags, tangles, or stray cuts and this was our first time cutting hair! We used a YouTube video to learn how to do it.

Does it need batteries?

No, our MGK3980 does not require batteries. It is a rechargeable device. – The Braun Team

Does this trimmer feature a travel lock?

No, it does not.

where can I purchase just the clippers I don’t need any attachments

then just don’t use them . I just threw a bunch away the I don’t use. Throw the ones you don’t want, away.

Are there replacement combs? My husband likes a 4 and 6, but the trimmer comes with 5 and 7.

you’re kidding right? use what he has and adjust how hard he presses the trimmer to face. That might work.

What is the capacity of the battery (mAh) ?

Not sure what the capacity of the battery is. But the charge life is good. I have used my trimmer to trim my beard and my head three times then I re charge the trimmer.

Was the product shipped or not?

Yes it was.

can this be used for scalp shaving?

Yes you can.
