Easy and cheap cut at home

Advantages: even easy cut, good value for money
Disadvantages: none to report yet

...I got this for my partner because, quite frankly, I was sick of him stealing the scissors and my razors at home! This clipper is a good product and I would always reccomend something from the babyliss range - call me a sucker for brands but I have never had a problem with the make when buying products before. The overall appearance isn't the typical appearance to clippers, at least not ones I've seen before but just like it says on the tin my partner found them easy to use and hold. Straight from the box the clippers use "Unique circular blade technology for multi directional cutting" which seem to make a massive differents than a pair of scissors giving the cut a nice and even appearance. The product is rechargable and comes with the mains equipment for corded use or uncorded, whichever you prefer! The results look very...

Don't get nicked-get Nicky's hair clipper

Advantages: Much Cheaper than the hairdressers!
Disadvantages: DIY! Messy hairs clogging the combs/attachments!

...SHEEEZ......! After spending what was for me, an almighty small fortune in Boots the other day I was handed a nice little free £10.00 voucher to spend from a choice of 4 different electrical products to spend in store -yah only 4.... and guess what was the second cheapest thing on offer? Yep,that's right-a "Nicky Clarke's Mains Hair Cutting set. " For men, naturally. As both my other half and my youngest son have their hairs clipped ultra short I thought it time to update aswell as upgrade our old clapped out clippers that are frankly-worse than nothing. So....INTRO FIRST ...... >>>>>> WHO IS NICKY CLARKE ? <<<<<<<< You would have to be from another planet or living in solitary confinement to not know or hear of Nicky Clarke. He's quite a well known hairdresser both in the media and his...

Review of Nicky Clarke Hair Clippers

A Very Very Good Hair Day!

Advantages: Heat very quickly, Thin irons are perfect for men and women
Disadvantages: None

...After having very short and spiky hair for most of my teens and early 20's, I decided earlier this year that I need a change and decided to grow my hair. When it got to a certain length, I purchased a pair of £20 straighteners from a supermarket. Being the 'typical' man, I decided that straighteners were straighteners, and I was not going to pay over the odds for a product that would no doubt do the job just as well. After getting sick and tired of waiting about 5 minutes for my straighteners to heat up, and about 45 minutes trying to get my hair straight, I decided on the recomendation of my friend to purchase a pair of the GHD mini thin straighteners. They come in a neatly presented box, with quite stylish packaging. The box had instructions on how to use and safety advice, which I would recomend reading due to the heat factor...

Philips QC5170 - The Good & The Bad

Advantages: 60 Minute Cordless Charge, Rotating Head For Self Cut, Quick Size Settings
Disadvantages: Only Cuts Hair Short, No Case or Box, Can be overcharged

...Great product, BUT read the whole review before buying!!! I have been cutting my own hair for several years now and have always used corded heavy standard clippers. but then thought i would try these Design - These are fantastically designed clippers, they are light, they look great, and they feel awesome in your hands. They have a perfect curve and grip on them so at whatever angle you are holding them you sure not to drop them. Some people who review these say they are too light and if you threw them across the floor they will break!! They are light but they are not designed to be indestructible, they are light enough to be manageable but heavy enough to know they are their. Function - These clippers also have great funtionality on them, one charge will give these things a full 60 minute charge, and they do not lose power as...

Review of Philips QC 5170

Great for short thin hair

Advantages: Heat very quickly
Disadvantages: Unable to cope with my thick hair

...I bought these recently as I cannot live without my older larger plated GHD's and thought that these would be a handy alternative. They do heat in under 3 seconds and have the same excellent ceramic plates as the larger version, however I found them very time consuming. I have very thick hair about shoulder length and unlike their larger cousins they were unable to straighten as effectively . On saying that they were brilliant on my fringe. I would recommend these to anyone with shorter or thin hair. A fashion conscientious male friend of mine used these and loved them and were perfect for his short hair. I would recommend using the straightening oil with these as they are very hot and I did find a few burnt strands of hair ....

Review of Ghd Mini Styler - Hair Straighteners

GHD - A 'Good Hair Day'

Advantages: Heats up quick
Disadvantages: Expensive

...GHD are the best straightners on the market, GHD actually stands for 'Good hair day' which is exactly what they give you.....every time. Near enough every hair salon uses them and they can be bought from most of them and also the GHD website. There are a range of different types of GHD straightners for different styles, both for girls and boys. They Take only a short 20 seconds to heat up to a maximum temperature of 210 degrees, they also have a little red led which lets you know exactly when there done once its stopped flashing. Meaning you only have to go over one section of your hair once unlike many other straightners on the market. Straightening can be annoying when the cord keeps getting caught or tangled, but it?s not going too happen with the 360 degree swivel cord GHDs have. This makes it easier to move around your head...

Review of Ghd Limited Edition Styler - Hair Straightener

Good Hair Day? Definitely!

Advantages: Quick to heat up, Excellent results, Easy to use, Time-saving
Disadvantages: Cost, Extremely hot, Only one setting

...I've had these hair straighteners for roughly six months now and have used them probably every day since I was given them, so I feel fairly qualified to give my opinion: that I really can't recommend them highly enough!! The quality of GHDs is unbeatable - I've used a lot of hair straighteners in my time, and I've got to say that they really do give consistently good results. They heat up in roughly fifteen seconds, and you can straighten hair very quickly in a rush with a fairly good finish - which as you can imagine saves huge amounts of time in the mornings! Generally, unless your hair is remarkably stubborn, the hair will also stay straight for the duration of the day. It's also worth noting that they're pretty versatile, and as my hairdresser demonstrated a few days ago, it's quite easy to get nice curls using these hair...

Review of Ghd Limited Edition Styler - Hair Straightener

WHERE IS MY HAIR

Advantages: There are only a few days between a good and a bad haircut
Disadvantages: There are a few days between a good and a bad haircut

...PLEASE NOTE UPDATED REVIEW I submitted this review under my previous membership name of Karen1203 so please do not r/r/c if you did previously ? short update on product at the end of review. My husband, Denis, spotted a pair of Marks & Spencer hair clippers, when we were out shopping a couple of weeks ago. They were priced at £25. For some unknown reason, (probably his aversion to parting with hard-earned cash to a hairdresser), he is always asking me to trim his hair for him, but this is something I have refused to do since I cut it one year when we were on holiday in Spain and he had to wear a cap until we got home. ?They?d be great for you to use on me, he insisted, you couldn?t go wrong with them; they have different settings to give an even cut all over" he assured me. "Just think they will have paid for themselves in less...

Review of Nicky Clarke Hair Clippers

GHD, makes a bad hair day a good hair day

Advantages: Temperature, quick warm up
Disadvantages: None

...These straighteners are the best hair straighteners I have ever used, they heat up in about 10 seconds, beep when they're ready to use and then if you forget to turn them off they switch themselves off which is great if you're like me and have often come home to find my bed covers completely singed. They're very hot which although on the one hand is good because they work really well for every type of hairstyle you can ever want to do, straighten, curl, volumise etc. However, if you don't use a comb when straightening your hair you can quite often burn your fingers on your hair. GHD really do offer quality products as a general rule and I would never use any other straighteners. This is my 3rd pair of GHD's so really I have no complaints, however, my hot pink straighteners have had to be sent back to GHD on 2 different occasions...
