Philips Norelco Kids Clipper Review

ABOUT:

The Philips Kids Clipper is the first hair clipper that is really designed for kids and made for moms. For both small children and their parents, getting a haircut can be a very stressful experience, both at a hair dresser and at home. The Kids Clipper is designed to make the child feel at ease, while giving maximum control to the mother. With specially rounded comb tips and blades, the clipper will not scratch the child’s skin. Small and lightweight, it is easy to maneuver and less tiring for the mom. The clipper has a powerful Lithium Ion battery that charges in 8 hours and delivers enough power for over 3 haircuts (45 minutes of running time). Even if the battery is drained, the clipper can still be used corded. As with all Philips hair clippers, there aren’t extra pieces to juggle: this clipper has simply two integrated guide combs that adjust to cover all hair lengths up to 1.65in. Once selected, the guide comb is locked to ensure a clean and even haircut. The Kids Clipper comes with an extensive accessory pack, consisting of a storage pouch, styling comb and scissors, a cape and a How To DVD that shows mom everything she needs to know to create the most popular haircuts.

Features:

Ultra Quiet. Reassures and calms kids (and moms) during the haircut. No loud motors here.
Kid friendly designed hair clipper comb tips. Rounded tips protect skin and ensure a comfortable cutting experience.
More compact and lighter than average clippers. Made for women’s hands and easier maneuvering around your child’s head.
Easy maintenance to save you time. Self sharpening blades need no oil or other care.
All kinds of styles (buzzcut, long sports cut, the fade and curly hair)

MY THOUGHTS:

I have two boys (3 and 4) and not only do they grow like weeds but so does their hair. I feel like we have been going to the hair dresser at least once a month and even that is stretching it. Now yes we do go with coupons or to the cheap hair dressers, but still the costs add up with two kids.

I have never cut anyone’s hair before but with the Philips Kids Hair Clippers I found it super easy. Since there are no extra pieces there is no confusion on which piece to use. I actually just picked up the clippers and buzzed away at my boys hair, mainly by their ears where the hair grows like weeds! The cape is definitely a huge plus, my boys thought it was so cool to sit under the cape, like a superhero! Using the clippers was super easy, but I will say it helps to read the instructions and watch the included DVD if you are hair clueless like me! I didn’t even need to use the scissors either. The clippers are pretty quiet and didn’t frighten my boys at all like some adult clippers do. I love that I was able to trim their hair at home at our convenience. No rushing out to a salon or paying constantly for hair cuts. For less than $40 this is definitely a good investment, especially for multiple kids and you can even use it on your husband! Oh and the plastic blue pieces are just guides and don’t have to be used, they snap on/off easily.
