Wahl Cordless Magic Clip
When it comes to choosing the right hair clippers, the only way to know which ones are for you, will be to try those clippers out for yourself. In order to help with those purchases, great reviews will help lead you in the right direction.
Cord/Cordless clippers are what everyone in the industry have acquired. Their flexibility, lightweight, and precision blades allow for these cord/cordless clippers to be in most professional barber’s kits.
The Wahl Cordless Magic Clip is an all around cutting clipper. A must have in your Barbering Kit. If you want the power that a corded clipper has, except much lighter and more flexibility, I would greatly consider this hair clipper.
I will be giving specification and why these clippers work well for me.
Wahl Cord/Cordless Magic Clip
The flexibility of moving around your station with ease and no cords is the most positive thing about the Wahl Cordless Magic Clip. No tangled cords, nor tripping or jumping around the cord.
Its ease of use gives it a perfect five stars on its own. If you find yourself struggling to keep the charge on the clipper, you can always connect it to the power cord and use it as if it were a corded hair clipper. One thing about attaching it to the cord is that it may get disconnected a little bit easier because of its function to convert a cordless clipper.
I love using this clipper, for most of my haircuts, but especially with my kid clients. You do not have to worry about getting the cord wrapped around your legs, arms or barber chair, or even worse, around your client.
Most kids do not sit still while you cut their hair, so this cordless function gives you that much more ease of use as well as less stress throughout your day with the little guys.
90 minute run time
A 90 minute run time is a great amount of time for Cordless Clippers.
The best thing about that 90 minute run time is that you will get the side to side motion of the blade at its best for most of the 90 minutes. The Lithium Ion Battery that is sweeping this world allows this to occur.
You will feel that the clippers will slow down a bit towards the end of the run time, then all of sudden it will just completely stop. This is great technology because with most cordless tools, before this one, as every minute passes, so does the speed of the clippers.
They would eventually slow down little by little. With the Wahl Cordless Magic Clip, this does not occur. You will have great functionality throughout most of the 90 minutes of run time.
Stagger Tooth Blade
Made with great precision and a new technology. It is called “Crunch Technology”. This new feature was meant to allow barbers to recognize the perfect blended fade as you cut. The way you recognize is by the sound of the blade as it cuts through the hair.
Experienced barbers listen to their clippers as they cut their clients hair. This technique gives great feedback on how much you are supposed to cut by listening to the pitch the clipper makes. If the pitch is low, you know that you have taken a small amount of hair with a soft stroke.
If the pitch is high, you know you have sped up a bit and took of a bulked are on the head. A really great technique that experienced barbers will develop overtime. So do not stop and keep practicing and cutting cutting cutting!
The Staggered Tooth Blade also was designed to make a quick stroke through the hair, much more efficient in cutting by increasing the cutting action. The faster you go through the hair the faster the blade works for you.
Speed
The speed on these clippers is phenomenal. The speed outperforms many cordless clippers. Experienced Barbers know that many of the cordless clippers sacrifice a little bit of speed, but with the Wahl Cordless Magic Clip, speed reduction is kept at a minimum
When using the Wahl Cordless Magic Clip, you will realize that the speed keeps going.
It will not slow down until it is close to the end of the 90 minute run time. It is only then, that you will feel and hear that the speed of the clipper slows down.
Of course it is because it is cordless and needs to be recharged. As soon as you connect it to your power cord you can instantly feel the difference in speed and sound.
That is the same speed and sound that you will have as soon as you charge your Wahl Cordless Magic Clip and disconnect it from the power cord.
One thing that I can say that makes me worry at times, is as i’m in the middle of a haircut, the clipper begins to slow down a bit, but you can only notice with the sound of the clipper not by the feel of it as you cut sections of hair.
The clipper is still cutting at great speeds and precision, due to the Staggered Tooth Blade, but it would concern me. But not to worry, a little bit of 5 in 1 Cool Care and a little bit of Wahl Clipper Oil brings the Magic Clip back up to par.
LightWeight
The weight of the Wahl Cordless Magic Clip is great. you can feel big difference when holding any other Wahl Hair Clipper and comparing it to the Cordless magic Clip. It weighs at 10.2 ounces.
That compared to the 5 Star Wahl Senior’s 16.2 ounces it a big difference, especially when using it a great amount throughout your work day.
When you first pick up your Wahl Cordless Magic Clip you will realize how much lighter it is than most corded clippers. The amount of difference is phenomenal. I literally thought the clipper may have been hollow inside.
It is that much lighter and that easy to tell the difference. Its lightweight ingenuity allows you to be quicker with your strokes without much fatigue. It allows you to keep your arms up with ease at different heights with every client you have.
It’s lightweight design is a must and one of the biggest factors that allow for no second guessing when purchasing this product.
