I would like to use clippers to cut my hair as short to skin as possible, without shaving, as I'm balding. I dont like a completely shaved look. Id like to use the same clippers to cut my beard as short as possible rather than shaving. Can you suggest reliable and long lasting clippers.

I used to have wahls balding clippers but they used to irritate my face too much.

Thanks!

I've cut myself some shorter curtain bangs this morning, fairly pleased with the result, but with the shorter length, a cowlick has appeared. In hindsight I'd like to go a little shorter in the middle pieces (glad I didn't brave it straight away tho) but wondering if there is anything I should be doing to help with my cowlick - it made styling the bangs very hard this morning

So Basically I need to find a hairclipper without breaking the bank.. i ve seen many brands in amazon like phillips,vgr,hatteker etc.. idk if they are good. should i try phillips? it doesnt not have the guard lever or adjustment thingy. My budget is too low for wahl but please recommend anything better than these brands under 2k. i can extend my budget upto 2.5k rupees i it has pretty good features.

1. I am planning to cut my own hair so i prefer cordless for ease of usage.
2. I need to fade my hair s i need a wide range of guard combs and speed settings and guard levers.
3. It is appreciated if it had a Pretty powerful motor and a good battery life.
4. I Dont mind spending extra if it means quality.

^(I DONT NEED BEARD ORIENTED TRIMMERS.)

these are some products i found on amazon are these any good?

I'm trying to achieve a similar look but also want low maintenance so it should be loose bangs or very low volume, appreciate your help!

I wanted to go for something like this, is it possible to do by myself? How would I even go about doing a haircut like this, even if I cant do it myself?

I have a detachable blade clipper. Does it matter which blade I’m using if I want to add a guard?

I bought some new clippers to hopefully save on cutting my hair. I got some Andis Beauty Master+ and was so excited when they showed up in the mail. I was disappointed to see that the oil despite being placed in a small bag leaked everywhere in the kit. It did manage to get onto the clippers despite them being wrapped in a bag as well. I'm worried that the oil has gotten into the buttons potentially damaging the clippers. Before testing them out should I just ask for a exchange of new clippers? Also any advice on cleaning them? I already contacted support and they offered a new bottle of oil but nothing else. I think if I ask for a return they will oblige.

I emailed the company Selfcutsystem to find out the rpm for the Lambo cordless clippers, they said 8000. I bought the system about 2 years ago, and I haven’t used the clippers, I only use the trimmers. The clippers sounds extremely slow to me for 8000 rpm’s. I did try them long ago and it seemed like it was struggling. Granted I had longer hair. I currently have the Wahl’s corded seniors and I want to go cordless. Is anybody else’s Lambo clippers motor sounding slow? Do they do pretty good with thick hair? Or would you suggest different cordless clippers?

I've had a Wahl 5 star magic clipper that has seen it's fair share of home cuts. It recently began buzzing only when using the 1/16 guard. All other guards fit and work without additional buzzing. It doesn't make the sound when using without guards. It feels like the 1/16 guard is not fitting on correctly and is loose. I replaced the guard, figuring that was the issue, but it still does it with new guard. I re-aligned the blades as well. What am I missing? I've attached a couple of pictures for reference. I appreciate any help you can give.

Have not cut or trimmed my hair in a very long time and scared to go to a salon. Any good recommended tutorials to trim very long hair and add light long layers?

I accidentally cut too much!! I just wanted to do layers 😭😭 and my mom is refusing to go to a salon.

So I'm physically unable to hold a comb and a pair of shears/scissors or clippers/trimmers at the same time.
I usually just attack my beard with trimmers/clippers, but I've REALLY liked the results the last couple times I've hit the barber up for a proper trim, problem is I can't hold the hair still with one hand, and use the other to cut.

I was thinking how nice it would be to have a comb with clippers built in, but then I remembered that there basically a comb with shears built in, as in thinning shears...

Is there a tool you can card through hair until you reach the point you wish to cut, the same tool can cut at that spot (rather than under- or over-cutting or trimming along the comb)

I don't want to try with proper thinning shears, because the 'comb' arm is sharp and isn't meant to be carded through hair, let alone a wiry beard... Thanks

Hello everyone.

I recently decided that I am going to start cutting my own hair, partly because the cost of haircuts add up quicky and partly is becuase I live in a rural area and going to the barbers is a bit too far from me (at least the quality ones). I have seeen people reccomnd some great clippers, but the issue is that i just don't want to spend that much money (preferably under 70€) or that some brands just aren't available here.

After some time browsing amazon.de I have narrowed it down to these 2 options:

• Remington HC5811
• Wahl Rapid Clip

Does anyone have experience with these and how are they, or if you have any other recommendations that fit my budget, I would be thankful to hear them.

Yes, this was me who tried cutting my hair 14 years ago… There’s no way I wasn’t bullied with that cut bro 😭

Hihi so its as the title says, I have long-medium length hair and while ive always cut my own bangs ive been hesitant to cut the back since its a lot harder to see what im doing lol. I cut my sisters hair so like I know how to do it on other people, just not myself. Any tips would help.

I’m a man and I’ve been cutting my own hair for years, I just shave the backs and sides with a 4 and then trim the top and it’s always looked fine. Today while I was shaving the back of my head, the guard fell off the clippers. Does anyone have any idea is this is fixable or if I just have to wear hats for the foreseeable future

Watching the Regal Gentleman videos (see below or go > YouTube > Regal Gentleman ) there some closeups of Dan's hands showing the scissors held on his ring finger. He snaps the scissors into action with a flick so fast I cannot see how he holds them. I looked at the positioning of ring and pinky finger on the loop, tried to see how it worked and thought I might cut myself. There must be a way to stay away from the shears blade.

Been cutting my hair for a while with clippers and just leaving the neck hair to make a mullet. I love it after a few months. The mullett length doesn't present as a crazy person, it's nice. But eventually it does get long and I have to do something.

I can't bring myself to scissor it. I know I'm gonna hit it wrong. Is there a hack for this?

I heard clippers and trimmers on Amazon and eBay can be fake. How can I tell if clippers/trimmers are fake or not? What are some reliable websites to buy from?

First time trying, hopefully get better with practice. Used a foil shaver into the fade . Got tired of paying someone $30 every 10 days. Any tips?

Are they all the same just rebranded? Or is there actually a difference in quality. LMK.

I just have grown out curtain bangs from a couple years ago so my bangs are basically as long as the rest of my hair but I want short shaggy layers in the back (rockstar kind of look) but I want my bangs to stay the same length. I went to a hairstylist requesting this but she left it way too long. (Medium/long hair. I’ve never cut my own hair before)

Been cutting my own hair for a little over 2 years now with some older wahl clippers and wanted to finally invest in a good set. Price isn’t too much of an issue as long as I’m getting my moneys worth. So wasn’t sure with so many options out there if someone could shed some light on some good sets that’ll last.
