Choosing a Hair Clipper

Thanks for all the compliments for my son. Indeed, it feels assuring and proud whenever a parent gets praises of their children. *Blushing* 

Remember, there is no ugly children, only lazy mommy. 
An example is this;


I bun up Jewel's hair into two and took them off after a couple of hours and this was what it turned out. Look at how auntie looking she is. But just a little styling of her hair…Viola! Transform to her pretty much better looking girl. *trying to be humble*

Alright, back to Ian's haircut. Definitely with a good hairdresser is not enough, you need to be equipped with a good tool, the hair clipper.  Can't possibly use this kind of shaver ya?

Many factors came to my mind before deciding which hair clipper to buy. The battery life, suitability for kids, user-friendly, reliability of the brand, maintenance and price. There are many brands in the market that carries electric hair clipper such as, Phillips Hair Clipper, Braun Hair Clipper, Panasonic Hair Clipper etc.

I was confused by the number of models that was displayed in the showcase. Thankfully a nice young sales promoter came up and showed me a few which could address my concerns. He helped me to narrow down between Braun and Philips.

Phillips


In the end Braun triumphed over Phillips for the following factors;
  • Shorter charging period
Braun: 1 hour charge for 40 mins usage
Phillips: 8 hours charge for 1 hour usage!!! 
Worst scenaio that could happen;
I can only use Phillips hair clipper once a day, so if Ian is super uncooperative, then he will have to wait till the next day to continue his haircut. *Mommy grasps hair and screams*

  • Easy to clean

Braun: The trimmer can be washed under running water
Phillips: Have to use a cleaning brush to sweep the loose hair

The shortest length that Phillips can shave till is to 0.5 mm whereas Braun only up to 1mm. Well, Ian is not going to be a monk so that extra 0.5mm is fine.

One of my best buy

  1. There are many different blade sharpening devices, including some marketed specifically for clipper blades. A cheap, two-sided honing stone is usually good enough for home use, but you may want to try out different products if you need to sharpen clipper blades frequently.best hair clipper and trimmer
