Hair clippers
Hair clippers are essential if you want to touch up your hair yourself, maintain a sharp cut, or easily groom your beard and neckline. Whether you’re going for a buzzcut, a fade, or just want to keep your look tidy between hairdresser visits: a good hair clipper helps you work quickly, precisely and comfortably. Thanks to the various guide combs and adjustable lengths, hair clippers are suitable for both beginners and experienced (home) hairdressers.
At Haarspullen.nl you’ll find different hair clippers suited to a variety of hair types and needs. From powerful professional models to user-friendly clippers for home use: there’s always a clipper that fits your routine.
How do you use a hair clipper?
Using a hair clipper is easier than many people think. With the right preparation and technique you can create a neat result at home.
Follow these steps for the best result:
-
Make sure your hair is clean and dry.
-
Choose the desired cutting length with an attachment and close the device.
-
Start at the sides and work calmly upwards.
-
Always move the clipper against the direction of hair growth.
-
Work gradually from a longer to a shorter setting if you want more control.
-
Check afterwards for any uneven spots and touch these up with an open clipper and the appropriate attachments.
-
Style your hair however you like with your favourite styling products.
If you want to create a fade or smooth transition, you can combine different guide combs. Take your time and work in small steps for a natural result. Allow two finger widths per attachment to create a gradual fade. Use the open clipper setting and a guide comb of the right length to blend the edges created by different lengths.
What is the difference between a hair clipper and a trimmer?
Although the terms are often used interchangeably, a hair clipper and a trimmer have different functions.
A hair clipper is designed to cut larger amounts of hair. The blades are wider and more powerful, making a clipper ideal for shaving the head, touching up hairstyles, and creating different hair lengths.
A trimmer is intended for precision work. Think of sharply finishing contours, touching up a beard line, or removing stray hairs around ears and neck.
In short:
-
Hair clipper: for cutting and shortening hair.
-
Trimmer: for detail work and sharp finishing.
Many people choose to use both devices for a completely groomed look.
How to get the best results
A quality hair clipper takes you far, but a few smart tips really make a difference.
Always use a clean hair clipper
Remove hair from the blades with a dry cloth or a special cleaning Spray after each cut. This keeps the clipper running smoothly and lasting longer.
Regularly maintain the blades
Many clippers come with maintenance oil. By regularly lubricating the blades you keep them sharp and prevent unnecessary wear.
Choose the right length
Unsure between two settings? Always start with the longest length. You can always go shorter; sticking it on is harder.
Work in good light
A good mirror and adequate lighting help you see every detail and avoid mistakes.
Take your time
Especially if you’re using a clipper for the first time, working slowly is key to a great result.
Aftercare
Once you’ve trimmed or shaved your hair or beard, it’s important to keep your hair looking good with the right hair and beard care. Choose a good shampoo for your hair and treat your beard with quality beard oil.
