Wahl clippers

Today it is very difficult to imagine a person who does without a regular haircut. In the end, the general appearance of our hairstyle plays a far from the last role in appearance, and in fact, as you know, in modern society, more than ever before, they “meet by clothes”. That is why many men and women know that it is necessary to pay attention not only to their wardrobe, but also to their hair.

And of course, you should not miss the opportunity to do it yourself, saving time and money on trips to professional salons. To do this, it is enough to purchase a high-quality hair clipper, for example, from the company Wahl.

Wahl has been widely known in many European countries for many years, and its main advantage has always been high quality. Most models of clippers of this brand really belong to the professional series, but at the same time they can be easily used at home. Thus, another feature of the Wahl trademark is convenience.

To date, the manufacturer has also made many innovations in its production, diversifying not only the range, but even fundamentally changing the technical characteristics of the machines.So, for example, the Wahl company was one of the first to start selling machines not with a combined type of power supply, that is, working both from a power cord and from a built-in battery. At the same time, modern technologies have made it possible to achieve the creation of battery models with low weight and compact dimensions.

Also, Wahl machines are pleasantly pleased with the external ergonomic design. The main handles are always made of durable plastic, have a comfortable shape, and the outer surface is often rubberized, which eliminates the risk of equipment slipping out of hands or getting water inside.

However, the professional series of cars from a popular brand has not only external amenities and features. Of course, the key point is their main function, that is, the quality of hair cutting. In this case, it is provided by a unique development - Crunch Chrome Blade, which is expressed in the special geometry of the double row of machine knives, as well as the additional possibility of their adjustment. Machines that are equipped with similar knives give a sensation of a kind of “crunch” when cutting, which allows much better control of the cut of the hair.

In addition, the complete set of Wahl products is pleasantly pleasing, which not every brand can boast of. As a rule, a clipper comes with a special case for its storage and transportation with compartments, various attachments for a trimmer or hair removal from ears and nose, spare blades, cleaning brushes, combs, chargers if it is not a wired model or even replaceable batteries.

It is worth noting that only an official Wahl representative or a store that works only with official suppliers can guarantee such a complete set. If you buy equipment in any other place, then it may differ markedly for the worse.

It's no surprise that a company with years of experience like Wahl has a very large range of hair clippers. Choosing something suitable for yourself is not so easy, given that in some cases the differences between the two models can be almost imperceptible at first glance.

However, there are several options that are still very popular among professionals today. We recommend that you pay your attention to them first of all:

• For example, if you are a supporter of the classics and you need the simplest, but at the same time high-quality and affordable machine for home use, then you should start with a model such as "Home Pro 100". This is a mains powered machine with stainless steel blades and a minimum cut length of 1 mm. At the same time, even such a simple machine has a fairly impressive package.With the Home Pro 100, you also get 8 different attachments (from 3 to 25 mm), a blade cleaning brush, a special attachment and knife oil.

• Series "icon”- this is another vivid example of how even the simplest and most unpretentious technique can be an excellent choice, as evidenced by its popularity today. For example, the model "Icon 116"has a wired power system, so it is equipped with a very powerful vibration motor V9000. The knives are made of high-quality chrome steel, and the cut can be adjusted without the need to change them. Until now, the models from the "Icon" series are considered the most powerful and reliable in the Wahl range. In the kit, they are also equipped with various attachments for blades, oil and care brushes.

• It is also worth paying attention to the series "Magic Clip". These are machines with a combined power supply and a pleasant external design, which is ergonomic, fits comfortably in the hand, making the haircut as comfortable as possible for you. Without a mains adapter, the machine runs on a lithium battery, but it only weighs 390 grams. On the surface of the machine there is a light indication of the battery status, which notifies you of the charging process, lights up while the battery is running out and goes out when it ends. In general, the machine can work on battery power for 90-120 minutes.
• It was in this series that the technology "Staggertooth”, that is, the use of two rows of blades, which allows for smoother transitions and high-quality haircuts without “antennas”. It also uses a special blade geometry "Crunch”, which forms a kind of “crunch” when used and allows you to better control the cut.

• Another version of the wireless model is the series "Vario Clipper". It has a more modern design and also features interesting blade functionality. For example, you won't need too many attachments, as the Vario Clipper series offers manual adjustment of the cutting length from 0.5 to 4 mm. The machines use fairly powerful lithium-ion batteries, which provide 120 minutes of continuous operation of the equipment, but at the same time do not make it too heavy. On average, any Wahl machine from the Vario Clipper series weighs no more than 400-500 grams. Otherwise, it's all the same unchanging quality - one or two rows of blades made of high-quality chrome steel, which, in combination with a powerful vibration motor, provide a clean cut.

• If we return to network machines, then among them, of course, the series "Wahl legend”, in particular, the model 9818. The main feature of these machines is high quality blades that can be adjusted to achieve a cut length of 0.5 to 3 mm.

When choosing a machine for home use, you should pay attention not only to the overall appearance and cost, but also take into account the quality of some materials, functionality and many other details:

• Blades play the main role. Before buying, make sure that you are dealing with an official supplier of the company, as this is the only guarantee that the knives in your new machine will be made of high quality chrome steel. Otherwise, they will cut hair badly and quickly become dull;
• Do not purchase a machine with extra functionality. For example, if you only need to trim whiskey a few times a month, then there is no need to purchase expensive equipment with many nozzles, blade adjustments and other "chips" for professionals;

• Always pay attention to the packaging of the goods. For the full use of the machine, as well as to keep it in working condition for a long time, you will need nozzles, brushes, knife care oil. Do not forget that official Wahl stores guarantee the supply of all the necessary goods along with the machine in the kit;
• The question of the type of power supply of equipment is the simplest. Combined cars are suitable for those who are often on the road. But ordinary wired ones are well suited for everyday home use;
• Do not forget about the banal convenience. Professional shops always have samples of models that you can hold in your hand, feel the weight and material of the case before making a final choice.

In general, hair clippers are easy to use. In fact, it is enough to turn them on, set the desired cut length by adjusting the blades or attaching the desired nozzle, after which you can proceed directly to the haircut, which is carried out by running the cutting part of the blades through the hair in the right place.

Most modern models include the risk of skin damage, so the blades are always limited to either a grill or part of a plastic case. So even if you do not use the nozzle, you will not be able to cut yourself.

Do not forget that each model of the Wahl machine comes with a detailed user manual that will allow you to easily understand not only the operation of this technique, but also its design.

The best guarantees for the quality of Wahl hair clippers are the testimonials of grateful customers. To date, many professionals speak positively about the technique of this manufacturer.

Of the main advantages, they invariably note the high quality of the haircut, the possibility of full control of the cut of the hair, and the adjustment of the length of the blades. Many experts also praised the company's innovations such as the geometry of the Crunch knives, which allows you to feel and, therefore, control their work much better.

Today, Wahl clippers still hold the lead due to their positive characteristics, which make them an ideal choice for both professional use and haircuts at home.
