Hair Clippers Advice
 

I'm looking to get some new hair clippers but don't wish to spend more than £50.

Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks.

Just for reference I have been cutting my own hair for 30 years years - 6 years I grew my hair long and these are as good as any other corded set I have bought in that time

My current set is Babyliss and is 2 year old but its just had its day.

I got a Philips Series 3000 set from Amazon during lockdown. £37 in 2020 but it seems they’re on for £20 today. Decent long cord but IIRC you have to get your own 2 pin to 3 pin adapter separately. Check package for details. :D

I have some Braun rechargeable cordless - they have 9 different settings, and do the job well - just under £30.

Unlike some, the cut length setting is on the clipper, rather than using different size clip-on attachments.

My WAHL HomePro Basic Corded Hair Clipper is lasting well compared to the GEEMY GM-806 which fell apart at the lever that controls the blade. The WAHL is very noisey and makes my hand go numb, so I only use it infrequently. If I worked in a hair dressing studio, I would need something that I could use all day, ie: no noise and no vibration. I did briefly own a Oster 606 from amazon but I paid for a new one and got a used one with hairs on it. A lot of reviews said the same thing. I sent it straight back without trying it.

If your Whal is noisy try oiling it, that's what they supply oil for. It will reduce noise and vibration.

Mine, a corded one, is still going strong after 5 yrs. £20 off ebay. Has all the accessories as the one posted by Jaymoss

Beware of the cheaper ones with recoverable plastic trimming guides. If the guides break, they are not sold separately.

I have a Whal home cut bought many years ago for around £15. Still going strong.
