Which one should you buy?

For most families the Wahl Clipper Lithium Pro 22-piece set at around $98 is the best hair clipper overall, pairing self-sharpening blades, a two-hour cordless runtime and a taper lever for blends with an Amazon best-seller review base in the thousands. Buy the $37 Philips Series 5000 if you want the cheapest washable clipper for grade-2 buzz cuts, the $55 Philips Series 3000 multigroom if you want one tool that also does beard, stubble and body, the $88 Wahl Rapid Clip if you want Wahl quality with ten combs in a slimmer body, or the $99 Remington Rapid Ultimate kit if its curved 70mm blade and straight-edge detailer appeal. Only step up to the $316 BaBylissPRO SilverFX+ if you are an enthusiast or barber chasing crisp skin fades with an exposed T-blade - it is a beautiful tool, but it is overkill for a normal family haircut.
