Bargain haircuts!, 5 May 2009

I bought these clippers for my hubby quite some time ago. He was delighted at how easy they are to use and how well they shave his head.

The only downside to them, and why I gave 4 stars instead of 5, is that they are a tad noisy.

4 x Attachment combs (sizes 1 through 4)

1 x comb

1 x scissors

1 x small tube of oil

1 x Cleaning brush

Frustratingly it doesn't say why you should oil the blade, either. A quick online search reveals the reasons: the oil reduces friction, which reduces heat, which reduces the chance of clipper 'rash' -...

Can't go wrong, 5 Aug. 2013

Wow, for just under a tenner they are fab. One review mentioned that they were noisy. I must be deaf because i found them fine. Attachments fit nicely. Cable plenty long enough. Overall very pleased.
