The Philips Norelco QC5580 Do-It-Yourself Hair Clipper has rapidly become the most successful self-cutting hair clipper on the market.
And for good reason..
.. cutting your own hair has never been so easy!
Features:
- Easy Reach 180° rotating head. Makes light work of reaching the back of your head
- 14 built-in length settings from 0 inch to 19/32 inch
- 60 mins cordless use after just 1 hour charge
- Head shave attachment – perfect for the nearly bald look
- High quality stainless steel, self sharpening trimmer blades
- Fully washable for easy cleaning
180° Rotating Head For Easy Reach
The rotating head gives you total control over the clipper’s angle, so you can turn the head to reach even the most difficult areas with ease.
It also means you don’t have to twist your arm into uncomfortable positions to get the angle you need.
This feature is far more useful than it looks and gives it the edge over similar models.
Head Shave Attachment
Okay so you’ll not achieve a complete bald finish, and it’s not as close as the Whal Balding Clippper, but it does a great job if you just need that nearly bald look.
Reassuringly, the blade does well not to nick or cut the skin.
Simply clip on the head shave attachment and away you go!
14 Easy Lock-In Length Settings From 0 to 15 mm
Turn the integrated zoom wheel beneath the clipper’s head to select and lock in the length setting you want.
Two combs provide length settings from 1mm to 15mm, with precisely 2mm between each length.
Use the special precision comb for buzz cut…or use the clipper without a comb for a close 0.5mm trim.
Precision Comb For A Short Buzz Style
Extra precision for the extra short hairstyles with a dedicated comb (lengths setting from 0.5mm to 3mm, with 0.5 mm steps).
Ideal for touching up sideburns and around the ears.
Or you could have a slightly longer length on top and nice and tight around the sides and back.
It only takes a few minutes to touch up your hair so you can keep that nice, sharp look all the time.
Rounded Tips And Combs Prevent Skin Irritation
The rounded edges on the blades and combs are designed to avoid scratching the skin for a more comfortable trim.
Corded And Cordless Use
It’s always beneficial to have a cordless option.
It makes cutting hair far easier.
Self-Sharpening Blades
Who really wants to spend their time oiling or greasing a hair clipper?
The self-sharpening, stainless steel blades stay sharp longer and ensure top cutting performance.
No oil or grease needed! Happy Days!
Up To 60 Min Of Cordless Power After 1 Hour Quick-Charge
The powerful lithium ion battery lasts for up to 60 minutes after a 1 hour charge.
A quick 10 minute charge gives you 10 minutes of clipping time, so it’s always ready when you are.
Battery Light Shows The Battery Status
The battery light glows white when full and blinks orange when 10 minutes remain.
A nice little feature letting you know when you need to re-charge it.
Fully Washable For Easy Cleaning
Conveniently washes under the tap for a thorough clean.
It’s all about making life simple.
If the only maintenance you really need is to wash it under a tap once you’re done, then that’s a real bonus.
2-Year Guarantee, Worldwide Voltage
A 2-year worldwide guarantee is not to be sniffed at. Plus it can be used safely using any worldwide voltage.
