" ...  I was interested in the cordless version of these, coming from the cordless Conair clippers and was concerned about having a cord on clippers to cut my own hair with. ... The instruction manual for cutting your hair was very well made and easy to understand. ... The clippers cut far better than my old Conairs ever did. ... The guides go on and come off easier and the weight of the clippers makes controlling them easier than the super light weight of the Conair. ... Not only that but these cut better than the Conair clippers did. ... It was much easier cutting my hair with these than I imagined could be possible as these are only my 2nd clippers ever. ... I was figuring out what length I wanted to cut my hair and following the instruction booklet and ended up forgetting to come back to the mid section in the back of my head so I actually ended up missing the blending right there and didn't notice until I was taking a shower. ... They worked so well that I tested them on facial hair just a bit lower and ended up cleaning up all of it (about 1/8" to 1/4"). ... The power switch is ALSO better than the Conair clippers because those ones had a very hard to slide switch because it was flush with the unit as it was placed inside of an indent and it barely had any texture on it to slide it with. ... The overall resulting haircut looked far better than it did when I cut with the Conairs. ... maybe just because these are better at cutting I was able to do a better job. ... I thought I was just not great at doing it and could only produce "decent" or "manageable" haircuts on my own hair but now I'm thinking it may have been the tool holding me back. ... A generous estimate of how many uses I got out of the Conair clippers was 16. ... The Conair clippers costed me $47.08 in 2015 and the Wahl ones costed me $18.99 in 2019. ... I used the tiny bottle for my first cut because I would rather just use up the sample size one as I give these clippers a shot so in-case I end up returning them I could keep the better oil or sell it.  ...  "

" ...  Great clippers work well  ...  "
comment
" ...  I cut my own hair and the clippers I had were battery powered and would have to be charge halfway through the cut, my hair grows fast and is thick so this was becoming more and more an issue. ... They cut well and have more attachments than I will likely ever use. ... The plastic case they come in feels a bit cheap though, but not a big deal, the clippers are wonderful. ... They seem much sharper than my old Remington set too, cut is very smooth and no pulling of hair.  ...  "
