Never judge a book by its cover!, 6 May 2014

I ordered these while half asleep as they were a good make / price. Imagine my surprise when I received them and read the box title 'wahl Afro bald fader' when I am actually a white man. So the intention was to post them back to amazon and get the other model at twice the price. However the dog managed to intercept the pre-paid postage label /box and receipt chewing them to pieces. So thought I'd give these clippers a go as I shave my head on a zero and wanted a cut as close to the head as possible. When you pick up the clippers they feel heavy, built to last and of excellent manufactured quality. They cut extremely close to the head which is what I wanted. I've had dozens of head clippers over the last 15 years and these are by far the best and sharpest. I highly recommend these and don't be put of if you don't have Afro hair as these are a brilliant buy. Oh and a note to other reviewers who complain about head cuts ...it is the users head shaving technique not the clippers that...

Great professional clippers, nice colour. One thing, they tend to cut very close to the wood work so are good for balding but not fading. You'd need to get another per of clippers with adjustable blades in order to achieve a descent fade, but great have saved myself £10 a week on haircuts since getting a pair in July so they have paid for themselves over and over again.

Fantastic!, 2 April 2013

Beautiful piece of machinery and very well engineered. Heavy to hold, feels like real quality. Can't grow my hair fast enough to get it shaved off again. Love it.
