Wahl makes home haircutting easy as 1 -2 - 3.
Finding the right numbered Guide Comb for your hairstyle is easy and convenient.
Wahl’s “Smooth Glide” guide combs make haircuts painless. Designed with a rounded tapered end for a smooth transition into the hair, Wahl’s “Smooth Glide” Guide combs do not scratch or scrape the scalp.
The guide combs are designed to channel the hair close to the blade thus insuring a clean even cut.
What makes Wahl® clipper blades a cut above the rest! Over 90 years of experience and a commitment to quality that’s reflected in superior materials and cutting edge technology.
Wahl uses only precision-ground, fire-hardened blades for maximum cutting efficiency and long-lasting sharpness. The chromium steel top blade resists corrosion, assuring years of smooth operation. The high-carbon steel bottom blade features microscopic pores that actually release oil during operation for light self-lubrication.
Wahl proprietary blade lapping technology provides superior cutting action while optimizing continual blade lubrication.
This Wahl Clipper comes equipped with a "Taper Lever" which can be used in conjunction with or without a guide comb. Use of the Taper Lever allows you to effect minute but precise adjustments to your desired length of cut. This is especially helpful to achieve a tapered look for necklines, fades or blending between sections.
The Chrome Pro Instruction Book takes you step-by-step to a perfect haircut.
