Wahl Lithium Ion Pro Rechargeable Cordless Hair Clippers for Men, Woman, & Children with Smart Charge Technology for Convenient at Home Haircutting - Model 79470

I started cutting my husband's hair since 2020 covid days, when everything closed down. Now I am forever his barber and as someone who cuts hair at home every few weeks for him, I was looking for a reliable clipper that didn’t die halfway through a haircut. The Wahl Lithium Ion Pro totally delivered—it feels like a professional tool without the bulky size or price tag.What I Like:1. Powerful motor – This clipper doesn’t snag or pull. It glides through thick hair easily, even after a few weeks of growth. I’ve used it for full haircuts, fades, and beard touch-ups, and it handles everything smoothly.2. Long battery life – This is the best part for me. A full charge lasts for multiple cuts (Wahl says 2+ hours, and I believe it). I’ve done three full haircuts on one charge and still had juice left. And if I forget to charge, the quick-charge feature gives enough power in just a few minutes.3. Attachments galore – It comes with a full set of guards (from 1/16” to 1”), plus ear tapers, blade oil, a cleaning brush, and a sturdy storage case. Everything you need is included.4. Cordless freedom – Being cordless makes it so much easier to move around and cut from all angles, especially with kids. The clippers also feel well-balanced—not too heavy, not too light.A Few Notes:The clipper is a little louder than I expected, especially when fully charged, but it’s not annoying—just something to note if you’re sensitive to sound.The included scissors aren’t the best quality, but they’re fine for trimming bangs or cleaning up edges.Final Verdict:This Wahl clipper is a must-have for at-home grooming. Whether you’re a beginner or experienced with DIY haircuts, the Lithium Ion Pro gives great results with zero stress. The long battery life, strong motor, and quality build make it well worth the investment. I’ve already recommended it to family and friends.Highly recommend if you want barbershop results without leaving the house!

Update: July 2025The clippers are still working great. The only thing that could be improved is if it had a push down power button. To turn on the clippers you have to pull down the lever on the side which has a good amount of resistance to it, it can be hard to flip it on when you’re maneuvering your arm behind your head for self haircuts.Great quality clippers though everything considered, I’ve owned them for about 2 years now, probably more and I’ve cut my own hair about 10 times.__________________________________Previous Review: 2024I spent around $60 for these clippers, and I’ve cut my own hair maybe 4 or 5 times. It’s been well worth the money considering how expensive haircuts are, at least here in California, $20 the cheapest but barber shops are like $40+. It’s paid for itself already. Cutting your own hair is hard but even then anyone can just put on a 4 or 6 guard and shave their whole head for an easy haircut.They’re great clippers, the charge lasts a long while and it has this matte material around it which helps you get a solid grip. I’ve had mine for over a year already, and it still works great.

I already like this better than the 5 star magic clipper that I bought a few years ago that was almost twice the price at $150. That one broke randomly as it was charging.This one is MUCH lighter and more comfortable to hold and manipulate - don't underestimate that if you are cutting your own hair. There are maybe twice the number of clippers for more accuracy and range, the features are the same and the quality is there for almost half the price. I have both and this one just feels lighter and better but with the same quality in terms of stability and precision. Plus it comes with a nice plastic case. Much better than storing it in a paper box which is what I did with my more expensive WAHL clipper.Definitely get this one for the value, variety, quality and case.

Pretty good quality for the money, but like many other companies, WAHL is not as good as it used to be. The best example is this set are the scissors... which are total JUNK. They remind me of the ones used in elementary schools that can't cut a kid's fingers. Why they even include them is just to make it look like this is a pro kit, which it is not. All in all the clippers do cut well and hold a charge. They are worth it if caught on a deal.

The plastic guards are kind of cheap and warped, but functionally fine. Charge holds well, and they cut wonderfully.

I use this every week since I've bought it and I love the convenience of it being wireless. I charge it and use it once or twice a week for my head and beard and if the battery runs low while im using it I can plug it in while using it. Full kit with useful attachments. Still cuts like new(i make sure I clean it/brush it after every use and lube the blade at least twice a month up to 4 times a month.

Excellent selection of guards. The clipper works well and appears to be well built. Charges quickly and has a long run time.

Another terrific Wahl product! Easy to use, well marked adapter sizes, and cleaning tools. Has a nice cutter shield allowing one to lube it after use without dribbling oil all over by sitting the case upright withe the cutter on the bottom.
