Editorial Reviews:
Do you wear your hair high and tight with a bald fade on the sides? You can maintain your look for less money by trimming your own hair with this corded Metro Baldfader clipper in racy red. These clippers have high-precision surgical steel blades that are excellent for close, smooth cuts, and fades. These blades are precision-ground to stay sharp for the life of the clippers. A powerful motor makes haircuts fairly quick but stays cool in your hand while running. The grip on these clippers is designed for comfort and easy maneuvering at different cutting angles. A comfortably placed thumb lever lets you adjust the height of the blade for trimming to your preferred length. This clipper kit also includes a blade guard, tapered fade comb, fade guide comb, cleaning oil, cleaning brush, and styling instructions. Wahl covers this clipper kit under a five-year limited warranty. --Cristina Vaamonde

Customer Rating: Summary: Great clipper for shaved or fade type hair cuts Comment: I've had these clippers for about two months now and very happy with the hair cuts I get with them. I never had any problems with my clipper, unlike the other comments people have left. If you like a fade, bald or even a military high and tight hair cut, these clippers will perform. It shaves very close and very well made. The only reason I did not give it 5 stars is, it could use some type of carrying case to put everything inside but other than that it's a great buy. Customer Rating: Summary: Good Product Comment: This clipper set seems to work very well for what I need it to do. I use it to keep my head shaved and I wanted something that would work better than what you can get at wal-mart, which is what I was using. It shaves very close and has an adjustable lever to change the closeness. I have cut myself once using it, operator error. The only gripe I would have is that it is very loud and heats up pretty quickly. Customer Rating: Summary: loud and itchy Comment: Compared to the generic clippers I've been using for the past several years, the Baldfader did cut a little closer to the scalp, though it's definitely still a "crew cut" and not a what I'd call a "shave." A bigger concern is that the unit I received is *extremely* loud, to the point of making my ears ring. I wouldn't consider using this in my apartment at night - would upset the neighbors. Last but not least, the Baldfader irritated my scalp, which the previous clippers did not.
Summary: I'll probably keep these around as an emergency backup, but I consider it money wasted. Customer Rating: Summary: Metro Baldfader - Did Not Work Comment: The Baldfader I ordered did not work. I carefully followed the instructions for aligning the blades, contacted Wahl and followed their troubleshooting instructions and still could not get the clippers to cut at all - they just scratched up my scalp. I promptly returned them and just got a small and less expensive beard trimmer at my local pharmacy, which has worked just fine. It may have been anomalous, but my experience was very poor. Customer Rating: Summary: Good choice for a clean shave.... Comment: The Baldfader is a great clipper for those of us that like our hair short. It only has a couple of settings and it lives up to its name, Baldfader.
