    I’ve never cut my own hair before so needless to say, I was concerned about how it would come out. I used this kit the other day for the first time and I was very pleased with the results. My haircut came out balanced, very decent actually, although a bit short and it took some time because I was unfamiliar with the process. Yet it looks as good as the cuts I’ve been getting at Great Clips; the hairs are cut cleanly, not having jagged ends. I’m sure with practice I’ll get a lot better, so along with saving money and time on cuts, I’ll be able to get (and more importantly maintain) the look I want.

    Highlights: This product is an EXCELLENT value at $40. The clipper is powerful yet amazingly quiet, a lot quieter than the clipper I’m used to when I frequented professionals. The thumb-adjustable taper control on the clipper is a big plus. The 2 AA trimmer works great and is more powerful than my Norelco beard trimmer which I’ve been using that uses 3 AA’s. The personal trimmer works great and you shouldn’t be afraid to use it in delicate areas because it does indeed cut, not pull, and it is indeed safe. You can change heads on the trimmer easily, and the fact that it uses only 1 AA battery is a plus as well.

    I recommend getting the 1.25″ and 1.5″ guide combs along with this kit. Sold separately.

    Hair Cutting Tip (for do it yourself guys): For a finishing touch, place a long piece of thin masking tape on the back of your hair, at the bottom where you want to **square off** your hairline. Use mirrors to help with the positioning, making sure the tape is perfectly horizontal. Then using the trimmer you can go right up to the tape while trimming away the unwanted hair. This will remove all your neck hair and will square off your hairline without even having to use any mirrors at this point. It works great!

    ————————————————————————————————————–
    Now, I’ll address some of the concerns about the kit that I’ve read here on Amazon:
    ————————————————————————————————————–

    – Who cares if reflective plastic is used? The clippers work great and to get actual chrome the kit would cost a LOT more.
    – The product description DOES tell you that you get guide combs up to 1″. Somebody didn’t read that obviously.
    – OK, the scissors are not great. That’s not a good enough reason to downgrade the review to 4 stars.
    – Somebody mentioned that they would like rechargeable batteries and awarded a 4 star review because of that. LOL I guess they never heard of rechargeable AA batteries.
    – The cape works just fine and if the velcro detaches there’s a simple fix: Crazy glue
    – So what if the bottle of oil included is small? Any regular all purpose tool oil will work just fine, there’s nothing special about the oil.
    – Somebody complained that they couldn’t register the kit online. That’s funny, I had NO PROBLEM registering the kit, Product #79524-3001 which will register the clipper, trimmer, and personal trimmer all at once.
    – Somebody wanted videos. You can watch instructional videos on the Wahl website, as well as download their instructional and supplemental pdf’s.

    UPDATE June 15, 2012: I’ve been using this kit for four months now. My haircuts are actually *better* and more *consistent* than what I was paying $15 for at Great Clips. I would tell them “rounded and full up top, short and tapering on the sides”. What I usually got was an uneven top which wasn’t blended well with the sides. Now I can do that myself with this kit and I can do the entire cut in less than 40 minutes (total time including cleanup).

    Bottom line: Using this kit is just like combing your hair. That’s the only skill. The trick is to know *how* to do this effectively. Just take notes and refer/update them with every cut. Once you get the hang of this you’ll be amazed at how well your cuts turn out.

    Finally, the kit is holding up well, with no problems.

    Will spend more money next time. Accessories feel and look cheap. Happy I bought this set on sale.

    The clippers by themselves are excellent barber shop quality. They are almost perfect.

    Cons
    -The only con I would give it is that its not that great for edge ups and detailing. But for everything else they work better than expected. They dont clog up and they can push through thick shaggy hair. You’d be surprised by how many expensive clippers sold on amazon cant even do that.

    Pros
    -They are powerful and can cut through thick and shaggy hair in one long line. They dont get clogged up
    -The clippers themselves dont do edging up a detailing very well, but they come with a mini wireless edge up clippers. They even come with an even small edge up clippers that can do eyebrows and other detailing.
    -they come with a ton of accessories: hair gaurds for all different lengths, 2 clips for if you need to part a segment of hair out the way, small brushes, a little bottle of clipper oil, a small mirror, a hair cut bib, 2 smaller edge up clippers, and a carrying case.
    -Very good value and real cheap for all that you get.

    These are better than probably 99% of all the clippers on amazon. Dont get fooled into buying more expensive clippers with features such as wireless or waterproof. I’ve purchased many of those by mistake only to find out they dont cut hair very well. Wahl is definitely a name brand you can trust that delivers high quality with cheap pricing! thanks!

    The kit includes everything needed. The guards fit perfectly and work as expected.

    Very good quality kit. Cuts very well. Easy to use and handle.

    The Main clipper is very strong and sturdy, the trimmer has some weight to it, but it, like the nose trimmer is a lot of plastic. The latter two require batteries, which may contribute to their weight.

    The main clippers are very strong and sturdy, and have all the attachments. This was a great part of the kit. The motor is really quiet.

    The trimmer is rather loud, but effective. It had no attachments, however, and I thought that was a shame, as I use it to thin the mustache length. The batteries don’t last too long with the power of the motor. I think I get 3 full face stylings out of it before they fade out, but this is when I let the beard thicken for a month. Daily trims would be shorter.

    The nose and ear trimmers; well, frankly I’ve never found a single brand/ model of those that is useful. I tried it to try it, but it met expectations – those being very very low. The kit would lose nothing without them.

    Oil & brush, scissors, a very small mirror, combs, plastic clothes cover, kit bag all add to the value, which was awesome thru amazon.

    Had this now for 6 months and given myself about 4 or 5 haircuts with it. It works great for me, I even use the little mirror that most complain about. The instructions are very clear and the main clipper, trimmer and little trimmer all work well. I do cut my hair fairly short, I use the #3,4 and 5 combs and finally I don’t have to leave a barber shop looking like I was prepped for brain surgery. The main clipper does buzz but nothing crazy loud or crazy vibration, at least not to me and certainly about the same or less as the ones hair stylists used to use.It has already paid for itself and I no longer have crazy out of control hair like I used too..lol.. as I would always wait too long to get it cut before. I cut my hair myself and have gotten better with each succeeding haircut. As soon as it starts to feel a little long I whip out all the stuff I need and trim it all up. I would just keep in mind that this is not top of the line as Wahl and others make other and more expensive professional clippers, But this to me works very well and cuts nicely and is more than adequate for my needs, which are pretty simple haircuts. Main clipper seems very durable, feels nice in the hand and as others have said the plastic seems kinda cheap, but its not a hammer. Highly recommended.
