Hair clippers

Hair clippers, an invention of yesterday, today and tomorrow

Due to people's need for haircuts and as a tool to help and speed up the hairdressing work, electric hair clippers appeared to facilitate the hairdresser's work and achieve more precise results.

It was in 1840 that Nikola Bizumic invented the first manually operated hair clipper . And it wasn't until 1911 that a high school student incorporated an electromagnetic vibratory motor to patent the first electric hair clipper.

So, we have had this great invention for over a century.

Features of hair clippers

Before buying a hair clipper , you should know what you want to achieve with it and the features each model offers. Currently, there isn't much difference between a professional hair clipper and one for personal use. Key features include:

• The cable : currently most hair clippers are designed with a battery-powered, cordless motor, but there are other models that still use the traditional cable.
• The battery : wireless machines have a rechargeable battery, and we must check the battery life to ensure it lasts long enough while we are cutting hair.
• Weight and size : both characteristics relate to comfort and handling. Depending on the machine's function and how long it will be used, it's recommended that it be as lightweight as possible. This is especially important for professionals who have to carry it for extended periods throughout the day.
• The blades : they must be high quality and sharp, in order to achieve a faster and safer shave.
• Accessories : Most hair clippers also contain a range of accessories to perform different types of haircuts or to protect the machine.

The technology behind these types of products is constantly evolving, and new improvements appear on the market regularly. We can now find hair clippers that work on wet hair and even underwater. Furthermore, thanks to technological advancements, they barely vibrate or make much noise.

We can find shaving machines on the market that require periodic maintenance, such as oiling. Others already include this maintenance and require no further care beyond cleaning.

Finally, it should be noted that the quality of the product will be a very important factor to consider, since if it does not have the appropriate quality, it can pull our hair, irritate our skin, or not have a very long lifespan.
