Review on Scarlett SC-HC63C11, black by Ada Szepelska ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

A great option for this money, I definitely recommend it!

I initially believed the 550r price tag for automobiles indicated mediocre quality, but upon recognizing the well-known Scarlett brand, I learned that their wares are available for a steal. As a result, I refrained from purchasing a more expensive model and instead opted to take this tool; had it failed on its first task, I wouldn't have been too unhappy because I would have eventually purchased a more expensive one anyhow. Regarding the gadget itself, I read that some folks had no luck finding oilers. I dunno, that was in the kit that I had. There is sufficient strength for cutting hair without biting or pulling it out. There is not a lot of noise, and I appreciated that everything was well greased right out of the factory. However, the manual does state that further lubrication is required. The cord is plenty long. Again, there is enough power to cut evenly if the machine isn't just run over the head, and especially if it's not run over it too quickly; it's obvious that if you try to cut it quickly, it will bite your hair, which is why you'll read reviews claiming "There is not enough power." If you want to get the job done quickly and in a single pass, however, you're better off purchasing a lawn mower. The kit comes with a brush, and the machine doesn't get so jammed up with hair throughout the haircut that you have to take it apart and shake it. The trouble was cleaning them because everything was in grease; the brush didn't do much good, and I ultimately had to use tweezers to pluck out the hairs.

Pros
  • Considerations for Purchase: Cost, Nozzles, Power, Design, and Machine Components
Cons
  • I was worried that the nozzles would crack when I tried to use them for the first time. At first, I had no idea how to enter them. Now, I think I have it down, but I still worry that I will bend and the nozzle will crack. Nozzles must be bent and snapped into place rather than simply put into grooves like on machines of higher-end models; the key is to not bend the nozzle too much, lest it break.
