Customer Reviews of Remington Short Cut Clipper Rechargeable, Cordless, Haircut Kit
Customer Review: An OK Clipper, Especially for Touch-ups
Summary: 3 Stars
Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program (What's this?)
I've been cutting my husband's hair at home for over 14 years now. He has fine, soft, silky hair on the sides and the back but unfortunately has a very deep receding hairline and not much hair on top (male pattern baldness).
His hair was getting shaggy around his ears and the back of his neck so I decided to test the Remington Short Cut Clipper by giving him a touch-up haircut. As per the instructions, I removed the balding comb that was attached and replaced it with the normal clipper comb. Then I dialed the length to setting 4 and started in. The Clipper's curved blade worked easily and smoothly but I couldn't see much difference in the hair length. I dialed the setting to 2 and went over the back and sides of his head again. It was quite easy and light to use and I really liked that it operated smoothly and fairly quietly. His hair was evened out and looked really nice. The only problem was that he still had a lot of little neck hairs and the hairline at the back of his neck needed to be evened up.
I pushed the button to bring out the little detail blade and tried it on the back of his neck. That did not work well at all. I really couldn't see that it was doing much good. As a matter of fact, it seemed to be pulling rather than shaving. We tried it a bit longer but it just wasn't working well there and Dave was losing patience with all the pulling...even though, I swear, I was trying to be very gentle.
I pushed the button again to retract the little detail blade and pulled off the comb attachment from the shaver. That worked superbly! Dave said it felt fine and there was no pulling or gouging. It shaved the little neck hairs very closely and the back of his neck looked and felt great. It only took about 30 seconds to even up the neck line and clean up the neck hairs. Success!
As I said earlier, there is not a lot on top to work with and since this was just a touchup haircut, anyway, I didn't need to cut anything there today. He prefers to keep his comb-over hair on top and since the balding comb actually gives a very close buzz cut I doubt that we will ever be using that particular attachment.
This haircutter was lightweight and felt good in my hand. The curved blade made it very easy to cut hair evenly. I also like the fact that it is much less noisy than the electric Vidal Sasson VSCL802 10-Piece Haircutting Kit that we have been using for several years now. It was very nice not having a cord to drag around, too. The Remington Short Cut Clipper comes with a handy little brush so the clipper clean-up was easy. I just brushed the cut hair away from the blade. It also comes with a small bottle of oil so re-lubing the blade is easy.
The whole shaver can be rinsed under water. The directions recommend re-lubing the blade after doing that. I felt that for this first haircut just brushing off the blade worked just fine.
My biggest pet peeve about Remington Short Cut Clipper is that once you unpack it from the box there is no easy way to keep all the pieces organized and together. I think a plastic storage case where all the pieces had a place would have been wonderful. At the least, I think some sort of a soft cloth storage bag with a draw string opening should have been included. I currently have mine stored in a freezer zip lock bag. It is fine for now but I am careful with it since there is no added protection for the shaver or accessories. The other thing that disappointed me was that it takes 14-16 hours to get a full charge into the unit. It will not operate while it is charging, either. The charge light is quite a bright blue. While it was charging on the bathroom counter it really did double as a quite bright nightlight.
Overall, I give this product 3 stars. In summary,it's easy to use and cuts hair evenly and smoothly but I do not like the detail blade - it pulled rather than shaved and I think it could easily cut tender ears or the skin on the back of the neck. The curvature of the main blade worked very well and made it very easy to trim hair. It's relatively quiet to operate but there is nothing provided in the box to keep all the pieces and parts organized and together. And finally, it takes a long time to charge up.
