Review on Complete Set Of Professional Hair Clipper Combs And Guards For Wahl Clippers - 1 & 1/4", 1 & 1/2" And 2" Sizes Included (NO.10+NO.12+NO.16, Gray) by Carlito Tardy

I know, we all go look at the one-star reviews. There's not a lot, but most of them go on about how these guards break easily on the first use. Well, I've used each guard twice now and no problems at all. They are a bit tight when they snap onto the blade and the plastic is a bit stiffer than the guards that came with my clipper. So, with all that in mind, I was gentle with them. But, you want them to be tight. A guard that slips around means you're going to end up looking like a complete idiot. So just be gentle when taking them on and off and you'll be fine.With that out of the way, I am very satisfied with hows these performed. My clipper is a Whal Color Pro Plus, model MC3. These larger guards fit perfectly. I've recently start going from a buzz/crew to an undercut, just a bit longer on top. The 1" that came with the Whal wasn't long enough. Every time I cut my hair it was like going back to a crew that looked like a half-baked undercut. So I got these guards. That photo of my hair is a fresh cut using the 1 1/4" on top and a bit growth to about 1/4" on the sides. I'm very satisfied with how these performed. They went through the hair, picking up the hair to the blade really well. My top looks nice and uniform. Couldn't have asked for more, especially at this price.Why am I bothering with this review, sounding like a shill? Because I've bought crappy guards before and screwed up my hair, and thought I'd share the benefit of experience. So, I bought these with some trepidation and now you know you don't need to wonder.
