Helpful hint: Squeezing from the side to remove the guide comb
I have been cutting my own hair for the past ten years. Other than saving money and time, it is also much cleaner (than go to a barbershop and sharing the clippers with other people - yikes!). Every weekend I go through my hair-cutting routines to trim off before shower - very easy and fast (just need about 3 minutes and I am done).
I used to have a cordless hair clipper a while back but it died. After used a corded hair clipper for a few months I really miss the convenience of the cordless one. Thank God the Amazon provided a wonderful feedback and this one ranked very high with a great price. I bought it and couldn't wait to try it on - all the positive reviews are very true, until I realized that it is very difficult to take the guide comb off the clipper head! It is a very tight fit and hard to remove it, as the same way I remove the guide on other brands I had. I got so frustrated that I was ready to return it, then I realized that it can be easily removed by simply squeeze from the side! The design of these guide combs is different from other brands and quite genius. With this, I give it a solid 5-star!
Hopefully this is a helpful hint to you - and if yes, please don't forget to press the "Yes" vote below :-) so others can benefit from this as well.
[update on April 26, 2014] I fully charged the hair clipper when I first received it in January, and have been using it every week ever since. Today is my first time to recharge it - the battery is really holding up. Would add another star if I can.
