The hair clipper is an accessory that is gaining more and more popularity. Such a machine allows you not to waste time and money on trips to the hairdresser, and in some cases replaces the electric shaver.
Sometimes there is not enough time to go to the hairdresser or banal forgetfulness can lead to too rich hair. And men eventually began to acquire hair clippers. Modern cars are so easy to operate that even a child can handle them.
Types of cars
- Rechargeable type of machine. These models are available with removable knives. The batteries for this type of machines are nickel-metal hydride or nickel-cadmium. But this is also their disadvantage. Such a battery can only be recharged when it is completely discharged. If you do not adhere to this condition, the battery capacity will decrease over time.
- Vibrating type of machine. These are low-power hair clippers. Their disadvantage is also the difficulty of leaving. In order to clean, lubricate or sharpen the knives, you will have to completely unscrew the parts from the body, which is quite problematic.
- Rotary type of machine. They are the most powerful and withstand long-term work. The disadvantage is the heating of the case during prolonged operation.
Power supply
- Battery clippers. They are convenient because they give freedom of movement. The machines can work up to 60 minutes and charge up to 7 hours. With use over time, the battery capacity decreases, which is also displayed on the operating time of the machine.
- Electric clippers are quite reliable and easy to use. But at the same time, it is not very convenient to work with them because of the cord that gets in the way under the hands.
- Battery-powered hair clippers are the most convenient to use. They can operate both on a battery and on a power cord.
Power
Low power clippers can "slip" in coarse hair and leave hairs or clumps of hair uncut. The average power is considered to be about 12w, and such a clipper is suitable for those who are not very experienced in haircuts. And for those who are good at using this technique, you can buy more powerful models.
Nozzles
- Removable nozzles do not clog, but take up more space. The size of such nozzles is about 12-17 mm.
- Retractable nozzles clog the retractable mechanism, which has to be cleaned from time to time.
Cleaning
When cutting, the hair will always remain in the clipper, and it is very good if it is easy and simple to clean it.
