The Braun hair clipper

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got this product for free from Braun to try it out and I love it. First off the brand Braun has never let me down. I have used their electrical shavers to body trimmers and now the new Braun hair clipper. It comes with two different size combs for you to choose from depending on your hair length. You are able to adjust it by swiping up and it locks great on the size you select. I trimmed my nephews hair from the sides with the 6mm hair comb and it came out great. I got a bit curious and decided to take off the hair comb once I finished with my nephew and trimmed my legs lol it's sensitive on the skin and gets a nice close shave :) love it over all

Almost perfect...

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] PROS: First off, the product is great. Slick design, easy to use, simple charging options with a nice sleek charging base that barely takes up any room. The clipper itself is very lightweight and easy to hold and control. The blades are indeed sharp, just as advertised on the box. The machine also works while it is plugged into the wire, which is a plus, especially if you're in a hurry and forgot to charge it. Major pro: battery comes fully charged and ready to use.
CONS: Hair gets caught under the blade. When you open it up to clean, you'll find a large majority of hair in the blade pocket. The blade cap is also easily opened (could be good or bad, your preference). My main disappointment came from the battery. Although better than most clippers I have tried, this one says that it lasts for 50 minutes of non-stop usage...false. The battery weakened after 20 minutes of use and starting blinking red. 30 minutes into using it, it died completely.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] First off I received this hair clipper free with no charge to me just for writing a honest reveiw. I really like that when your fading your hair it's adjustable guard is great.It's nice not to have to change guards all the time. I also like that its rechargeable, and when its dead you can plug it in and it will run.It comes with a brush to make cleaning easy.Has a bag to keep everything together.The blades are very sharp,and cut evenly.I really like the way it was boxed very easy to open.Unlike those blister packs that are hard to open. I have recommended this to my friends,and family,and will in the future.Thanks BRAUN you made a great product.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Braun's Hairclipper works great. I like the size of it and it feels comfortable in the hand. It comes with a charging station and rechargeable batteries which is convenient. Easy to use and makes a clean cut. It comes with a lot of length settings so it can be used by anyone. I plan to use this on myself and my kids!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received the HC5090 free from Braun in exchange for an honest review. Having 3 males in the house, a decent hair clipper is almost a requirement or you'll be spending a lot of money at the barber shop. The timing of this product's arrival was great as my two boys and I were sorely in need of a trim. The unit comes with a convenient charging stand so it stores upright as not to take up too much room in the corner of the bathroom sink area. Included are two comb attachments (3-24mm and 14-35mm), a cleaning brush, oil bottle and a travel bag. Right off the bat I liked the idea of having to work with just two adjustable comb attachments instead of fumbling through a big box of ten like I had using an old product made by a different company. The combs hold secure with their memory SafetyLock system. It remembers the last length setting used and there's no risk of the accidental pop-off leaving you with the infamous bald patch.
My youngest wears his hair short. I started with the longer comb till I had an idea of how the length system worked. The HC5090 worked just as it's supposed to. After a few passes, the hair was trimmed down to the length we wanted. The unit did struggle a bit more with my older son as he has some very thick hair. I found that a slower hand remedied this but the extra work did cut into the advertised charge holding time of 50 minutes. I found actual working time was closer to the rage of 35-40 minutes which is still not bad considering what I put it through. As far as my own usage, the HC5090 was fast and easy. No need for switching back and forth between my old size 4, 6, 8 and sideburn combs. This unit did it all with just a slide of my thumb.
I think the best feature of all about this product is it's ability to get razor close. The areas such as the front hairline, sideburns and especially along the back of the neck were so easy to manage because the HC5090 cuts extremely close and accurate without the combs. There are no renegade hairs hanging in the back, no peach fuzz on the neck and the front of my boy's haircut was so straight that it looks like I did it with a ruler.
Overall, this is a solid unit. I'd recommend the Braun HC5090 to anyone who cuts their own hair, has kids or is simply looking to save a little money by cutting out the trip to the barber. You can do it all yourself with this clipper and it works great.

Braun Hair Clipper

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Let me just start out by saying wow, just wow. I was waiting for this in the mail since it told me about it and was actually thinking of getting a haircut, but then this made me wait. I used it on my hair and let me just tell you, it was like a professional did it. I made my hair look exactly like my regular stylist does it, but for free. I love this thing. Since it has memory profiles, it knows exactly what to do for my next haircut too. I recommend this to anyone who is tired of paying money for a haircut and is able to do it themselves. I am so glad I got this in the mail. Thank you BzzAgent!

Very Impressed

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Braun Hair Clipper HC5090 is everything it says it is. I really enjoy the wireless feature and how well it cuts hair. I see why it is the hair clipper for the NFL. The reason why I give this 4 stars in stead of 5 is because for those of you who are used to the standard 1, 2, 3, etc shave...this is not like that at all. The lengths go by millimeters. So unless you know how long you want your hair in MM....it takes a little getting used to to find "your look". The only other thing is when you oil the blades it is a little confusing on where you are exactly supposed to put the oil, according to the instructions. Regardless, I love that it is rechargeable (comes with a convenient charging stand) and like I said before it cuts very well. I would recommend this hair clipper just be aware of how long you want your hair to be in millimeters.
