Great clipper with many comb sizes available. There are larger sizes available then what is included in the kit.
I use this to cut my own hair. I was originally thinking I would just use it to make small adjustments to help extend the length between going to the hair stylist. With the discovery of the 1.5" wahl guide comb I am able to cut the hair on the top of my head, very easy to do with the cordless. Cutting the sides requires a little thinking because I have 5/8" on the sides and back. After watching a couple on-line videos on how to cut hair with clippers I realized what needs to be done.
Whenever I go to the hair stylist I always get let down with the cut. The last time was the breaking point, it seemed like everything I was asked was just thrown out and my hair was cut their way. Very frustrating to say the least. I thought that in the worst case I could do no worse. What I did was get one last hair cut after I purchased this clipper. I watched very closely how it was done, not too close on the parts I didn't like. Any way, I went home and put a guide comb on the clipper and with the clipper off, I pushed it through my hair. I was able to find which guide comb was used on my head and how far up the sides. I have 5/8" on the sides and back and 1.5"; on the top. Wahl makes the 1.5"; guide comb which really makes the deal. I put the 1.5" comb on the clipper and turned it on then ran it over my head, it just cut some stray hairs but I was able to see just how easy it was to use, I could hold it at all the angles needed to run over the top of my head. Overrunning the sides and back were no issue since they are shorter. Then I put on the clipper for the sides and ran it around. The area where the sides/back meet the top need to be blended gradually which is really easy using the technique on the Wahl website and shown in the instruction book, called blending. The blending is using the rocking motion at the end of cut, the photo in the instructions and the video make it clear. Same technique my hair stylist used too.
So far I have done 3 hair cuts, I cut more often because there is no charge and I figured if I messed up the problem would be small. The result was amazingly good and took almost no skill. The hardest part is squaring off the back, kind of hard to look in a mirror and watch while moving the clipper. I just did several dry runs, with the clipper off till I felt I had the technique correct then turned it on and cut. Perfect results. Now I cut my hair in the morning before taking a shower, no lost time sitting in a hair cut shop waiting to have a less than average hair cut.
I received 12 guide comb attachments with the clipper. I think there was more than the basic set. Very happy with the quality of the combs. The clipper feels good and it is not too heavy. No cord really helps cutting your own hair. The case is a soft zipper case, holds everything in it. It is ok quality. I have not yet ran a change out on the clipper, it lasts longer than I could possibly use it. Perhaps for several hair cuts it would not make it but for one person no issue. The rechargeable battery is the weak point, the instructions say it will only last 3-5 years. Seems short but the instructions also say the clipper can be used with the cord plugged in. So that would be the back for one day when it finally gives up.
This really changed my mind on cutting my own hair. It is no harder than trimming a beard, really easy for me to pick up. If you ever thought about cutting your own hair give it a try, you may be surprised how easy it can be. Just get it cut one more time at the hair stylist then go home and run the clipper with the comb attached, no power and see what was cut to which point. That really helps teach you how to cut.
UPDATE: I have been using this clipper to cut my own hair for over 1 year. I have improved cutting my hair a bit. I cut my hair more often these days because it is no charge and I like to maintain the same general look. I'm amazed at how easy it is to cut my own hair, I should have tried this years ago. It has become so easy to cut my own hair I hardly think about it any more. I have become better at cutting my own hair so that it looks the way I like it. And I can repeat it easily. My wife likes the way it looks too.
