Advantages: Easy to use, lightweight and trims without tugging Disadvantages: cutting edges can become a little warm after a while
a month to help hide my baldness, but as I had previously used Wahl hair trimming products I decided to bite the bullet, so to speak, and invest in what I hoped would last for quite some time.
That was nearly a year ago now and the yucky browny purple coloured hair trimmers are still going strong.
This trimmer itself is great for shaving my head, plus, what I really found was a boon about it was it that it is brilliant for the finer details around the edges, such as side burns and the back of my neck, maybe even them tramlines as well, (although I don?t have any tram lines in what?s left of my hair).
The electric cable is of a good length so you?re not stuck to that plug socket near the floor, forcing you to kneel down in a dodgy position until you?ve finished the job in hand.
The three cutting guides are a good quality rigid plastic ...
I run a dog grooming parlour, so feel qualified to post on this subject.
I found Wahl clippers to be nicely small, but very heavy. Design is poor - to hold comfortably, your had covers the ventilation slots. This means you either suffer hand ache or rapidly heating blades.

Advantages: Low-cost product from an established brand Disadvantages: None
The Wahl Homepro 100 Series clippers are a great low-cost product for basic hair trimming. If you require a reliable and consistent cut then Wahl are an excellent choice of brand. The Wahl 100 clippers come with four attachment combs ranging from grades1-4. The box set also contains scissors and clipper oil which is essential in keeping your blades operating smoothly. All this comes for an average price of around £10 on ebay including postage costs. I have found Wahl clippers always perform better than cheap alternatives that tend to leave uneven and patchy hair cuts. With Wahl you are guaranteed a smooth and consistent cut with blade technology that will glide through your hair rather than sticking to it. If you need a high quality set of hair clippers without wasting money on unecessarily expensive products then the Wahl Homepro 100 ...
