Did the job. Or, rather, my girlfriend quickly mastered it. Anyway, we opened the box, oiled the cutting blade area as instructed, went with the most conservative cutting attachment, and I wound up with a "coronavirus cut" that was acceptable. To be sure, it didn't match "Great Clips" quality (all an old, balding guy like me ever needs), but that was my girlfriend's first time, so she gets four stars while this kit gets five. I like the color-coded clipper attachments. At a minimum, they build confidence in the user's sense of "proceeding safely." The included scissors seem cheap, and we didn't use them because I bought a separate, 3-scissor set (wanted good thinning shears). Helpful Tip: Don't wait for your hair to grow fully out. Start out using this as a "thin and trim," because mistakes will be most pronounced if you or your lady cut and thus style a fully grown out head of hair. I've usually been able to go about 50 days between cuts, but we did this at 35, and there was thus less anxiety. I did notice, about 12 or so days later, that she'd failed to layer-cut a couple areas toward the rear of my head. She'll learn, though, and we're gonna go back out on her porch every month now, to cut it at the thin-and-trim level. I'm also glad that I was able to shop for price and found a demonstrably better deal here on Ebay than elsewhere. Kudos!Read full review

I’ve been waiting for my clipper to arrive for a long time. After it decided to take a trip to Puerto Rico and a month later I was excited to have received it. I was expecting a better quality of machine. It heats up so much, it’s loud when in use and it takes a few strokes to cut hair right! I pass the machine through hair and it gets stuck and in have to go really slow to make a cut. It leave long hairs and doesn’t cut evenly. Unsatisfied with this product.

easy-to use clippers. A little heavy, but not terribly so. I cut my son's and husband's hair; first-timer luck. Great results!! The color-coding was helpful on the blade guides. The quality of the blade guides and comb were lower than expected; some of the tines got warped out of alignment during shipment. I had to use pliers to bend them back into alignment, and be very careful how to overlap the tines when I put them away for storage. The scissors seemed exceptionally lightweight, but I was amazed at how sharp they were and how well they cut hair. Overall, we're super pleased with our purchase. There were lots of hair-cutting video tutorials on the wahl website, but I actually found the general hair-cutting guidance provided in the package insert to be the most helpful.

I like how easy this is to use and the different cutting guards and their sizes. For ease of readability, I marked the cutting guards numbers with a black sharpie so they be easier to read. (numbers are the same color as the guard itself making it very difficult to read). That’s my only complaint with the system. It has worked very nicely and I was able to give myself a good buzz cut and save money at the barber shop.

Great product. Bought these to replace less robust clippers. The colors are so helpful and make it less stressful to use. This was my 2nd time cutting my husband’s hair at home and it turned out great. He actually had co-workers comment on his hair looking normal while everyone else has crazy hair. Awesome!
