Wahl Professional5 Star Corded Balding Clipper V5000 Motor Ultra Close Trimming

Works great, blades are very quiet and cut extremely well.

Super buenas

This clipper works really well. Very close cut. with the attachments does the beard as well. Only critique, a bit heavy.

I have been shaving my own head for about the past 12 years. I have always liked my hair as short as possible without having to "bic" it as it leaves my skin irritated and I do not like the feel/look of a completely shaved head on me. I have owned many different shavers over the course of those years and therefor I feel that I can provide an honest, thorough review.The first thing that caught my attention about this shaver is the fact that it is a balding shaver. This does not mean that you will get the equivalent of actually taking a razor blade to your head but it does mean it will take your hair down to a level comparable to about 36-48 hours after taking an actual razor blade to it. Another reviewer reported a 1 day after level but personally I would suggest the 36-48 hour marker. I guess his hair must grow in a bit quicker than mine, wouldn't surprise me, I am in my mid to late 20's and losing the hair quick. The only plus side is I guess I won't need to keep investing in these things a whole lot longer. lol.Please be careful when using this shaver. This is by far the sharpest bladed shaver that I have ever used in my life! I could certainly understand why people report the razor burn effect and cutting themselves. I was about 95% done with my shave and was thinking ha, didn't even knick myself and when I got to the back of my neck I gave myself a nice little stingy cut. Keep this thing flat and do not tilt it on an angle when shaving or you will regret it. I didn't wind up with a bloody burning head like another reviewer reported, but I did find a lot of humor out of reading his review.Pros:- Extremely sharp blades that take your hair down to anywhere from 1-3 days after a full razor shave. I really like this because I can get an extra few days before I have to shave my head again. I like a shaved head but don't like having to do it on a frequent basis.- Feels much more durable than many other shavers I have owned. I haven't had this long so there's no telling how long it will hold up but the extra sharp blades lead me to believe I will get a little extra life out of this shaver than some of the more dulled out competition.- Isn't obnoxiously loud like some of the other brands/models I've owned. This is important to me because I often shave my head late in the evening through a hollow door leading to a bedroom that my wife is often fast asleep in.Cons:While it is a pro that the blade is sharp it is also a drawback. You will need to take extra care when shaving with this or you will likely wind up bleeding in a spot or two. I do NOT recommend this shaver on softer/more sensitive areas such as around the neck, or around any looser skin, etc. Keep it against your cranium at the right angle and you should be fine.Final Note: I know some of you don't like when reviewers leave feedback about sellers but others do like to get what is described & their moneys worth so I do want to warn some of you ahead of time that mine arrived from cyberteams with missing parts. It did not come with any clippers, cleaning brushes or oil and in turn it made me skeptical of whether or not it was a returned item. I decided to take my chances as the shaver itself looked perfectly fine so I just sanitized the blades prior to use (just in case it has been used prior) and had at it. This discrepancy in no way altered the rating of 4 stars that I gave the product but it would have been nice to have those parts for facial areas/etc.Hope this helps!

If you're like me, you've likely been trying to decide on which set of balding clippers to buy- checking out review websites and comparing models. Let me save you some time- these are the balding clippers you want.I've seen all the reviews on all the websites, and I took what I thought was a risk buying these clippers because of both the cost and some of the negative reviews here. As it turns out, it was an excellent decision and worth the risk. Here's why:For the past year plus, since I came to grips with the fact that my hair was thinning, I've been shaving my head. My tool of choice was a set of Wahl clippers meant for hair cutting. I'd run it without a guard, with the blade on the closest level. Well, after about ten years of use, those clippers died and needed replacing. Needing to purchase a new set, I learned about these clippers, specifically designed for balding purposes. I was hesitant because several reviews spoke of receiving used clippers. Well, I can't speak for them, but I can report that I was sent a brand new, in original packaging, set of clippers.After examining them closely, I plugged in and went to work. Let me just say... WOW. What a difference. If you've only been using regular clippers at their lowest setting, this is night and day different. First of all, these have more power than standard Wahl clippers meant for regular haircuts (even the heavy duty ones used in salons.) They glide through hair of varying length and thickness. Since I had been waiting a few days for these to arrive my hair was a little longer than usual. These clippers just sailed through the hair, mowing it down quickly, without hesitation. Secondly, they absolutely cut closer. It's not as close as using a razor blade, but so close that if you're using a razor blade or standard clippers, you'll never go back.Now, because they are so sharp and heavy, using them does require a learning curve. Their weight is sufficient that you need not press down into your scalp while cutting, but that results in their being a little awkward to hold. If you're new to all of this, you'll just want to take your time until you get a real feel for it. Also, they are a little more pricey than other models available. Let me say, this is a case of, "you get what you pay for." If you want a set of heavy duty, professional clippers designed specifically for balding your head, then you're going to need to spend a little more. Otherwise, you'll end up with something under-powered because it's battery powered, or something that doesn't cut as well because it's not actually designed for balding purposes.Hopefully this review will help those who are on the fence, as I was before this purchase. As an aside, I should mention that I am a real person, who purchased these clippers with my own money, and I am not employed or compensated by Amazon or Wahl in any way. I'm just a guy who is happy with his balding clipper purchase and wanted to write a review to help anyone in a similar situation weighing their options. Cheers.

The best for lowest possible shaved head look without going as low as a razor. I wish I night these a long time ago instead of my pricy andi master series

Bought this 13 years ago here on Amazon and it is still working perfectly. I use it every 7-10 days and it takes me about 5-7 minutes to get to stubble. I changed the blade about 3 years ago and I oil it maybe once a month. I have looked for one of those palm shavers but they bald you. I do not wanna be completely bald and the blade on this one does that for me.

Great clippers. Cuts very close to skin.
