Used and missing parts arrived

Not only the missing parts, but also the hair clipper was used, oily, still had small shreds of hair and fingerprints everywhere. Do not sell as new, they come second hand. Completely wrong and frankly unhygienic.

  • Many fit

Mine are still turning after 6 years.

I bought mine exactly 6 years ago and it cuts almost like the first day, about 90% and I cut my hair once a week; Keep in mind that I think my model is an outdated version with a V5000 engine instead of the new V9000. A few things: There is some rust, just a bit on the inside, and that's probably because I cleaned it with soap and water, now I know better and just used rubbing alcohol and a good napkin. The on/off switch is loose so I stuck a toothpick in to hold it in place. Every few timesโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • thin

At first it worked, now it pulls every hair.

I have owned it since February. When I first got them they worked fine. Nothing special. I cut my husband and son's hair twice a month. The last 2 times I cut their hair it was always tugging and hurting both my son and husband. I brushed her then applied hair oil, still pulling the whole time. For the price of these clippers, they should last more than a few months. It sucks to throw away a $50 clipper after 3 months of use.

Pros
  • Excellent construction
Cons
  • Appearance

Very, very good, almost unbelievable.

Very good hair clipper. I am not a professional barber but have been cutting my hair for over 20 years. They probably cut better than any clippers I've ever owned. Easily 5 stars if not for two things. The 1/8" nozzle won't fit on a clipper. This is one of the most commonly used fading tips, so it's a big bummer. Luckily I've had a million other clippers, so I have spares. in that it's considered Zero gap clipper is advertised which would be great but it doesn't really cut very tight. In factโ€ฆ

Pros
  • New to my collection
Cons
  • Some defects

What is the problem?!

I've noticed some patchy reviews and I don't quite understand why. These clippers are very strong and seem to be holding up. They also fade/shrink/merge just the way I like them (when guards are added). You just need to know how to maneuver the clipper on the head/tapered areas etc. I've been cutting my hair for about 20 years and this is the best pair I've ever had. I see people complaining that the clippers get hot after a few minutes. Well that's fine. I have several Andis articles that doโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Not cheap but decent
Cons
  • I have some doubts

Elite Pro also comes with the best professional metal floor fenders

Well I'll compare the Wahl 5 Star Magic to the Elite Pro. I think Magic Clip for professional use. I'm not a professional hairstylist but I've been doing fading for myself and my friends for many years. I wanted to buy a Wahl professional hair clipper to take it to the next level. Boy was I wrong. The Magic Clamp came with the cheapest guards you can find. The motor should be the most powerful, but my elite pro home clippers feel a lot more powerful than the Magic Clip. Elite Pro also comesโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Beautiful looks
Cons
  • Easy maintenance

Feels strong and good. gets very hot.

So this is my third or fourth clipper, nothing new to me. They are a good weight and feel at a professional level. The downside is that it gets pretty hot on the black part with your thumb, almost to the point where you have to turn it off because it's too much for your hand. That happens maybe after a good half hour of use. I oil and wash it before each use. It doesn't stop working though, very very good quality. Also, the included front guards are insanely sharp, making them feel like they're

Pros
  • Excellent overall performance
Cons
  • Something is wrong

Cuts like butter in clippers

I'm a hairdresser working for Fantastic Sams. I have bought 6 different clippers in 4 years. None of them worked like I thought they should. Dull always stuck to thicker hair, and I bought them from professional barbers. But in the end I found this clipper at Revain, read most of the reviews and took a chance. I really like it, cuts the thickest hair with no problem. They stay nice and cool and haven't gotten hot yet. And I do 3 haircuts an hour to keep up with me. So I give them 5 stars. *****

Pros
  • Satisfied so far
Cons
  • Update available

Wahl is still the king of clippers

Very good Wahl clipper. Comes with Magic Clip wire cutters, clipper attachment, comb, small brush, 1 ounce (if that's a lot) oil, instructions, and 8 attachments (3/16, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 5, 8) . There are no #6 and #7 fuses (not needed anyway). Once you've got your settings in place (0 gaps and your favorite engagement buttons), oil them up, run them, and let them do their thing. The blades cut like butter and stay cool for almost 25 minutes. Feels good in the hand and has a certain weight. Very

  • Good marks for grip and durability from testers
