You made me CRY G-Whiz and I am a grown man! Thank you for the tips to keep my Wahl shaver like new! I have the trimmer with attachments (shaver is one) but I may just get a full size one after this. I also was mashing it into my face an now I know to keep it light and smooth! Thank you once again for the tips!
I've been considering getting one of these and i must say your video has certainly convinced me. Straight, concise, informative and funny. Wishing you the best of Luck. God Bless!
Love this product. I did a bunch of research before settling on the Wahl 5-Star shaver. Everyone said it was the best shaver for black men. Though I occasionally still get some minor razor bumps, this shaver is far and away the best I've owned. I've had it for like five years now and it still works perfectly - I've replaced the blades maybe once or twice and the foil once. Definitely worth the money.
I had the red one for around 6 months and even though it was good, I thought it could have been better, although I decided to invest in the finale version and it is perfect, it fixed all of the problems and I am really happy with it thanks for improving such an amazing product
This was one of the best and most informative videos ever! Thanks for answering all the questions I had about this shaver. And I hope you get that money they owe you.
I have the Wahl 5-Star Balding Clippers and they're awesome. They're heavy duty, precision made, and durable. They're also worth every penny, though they're actually reasonably priced.
0:45 it only cuts stubble. This is the statement I’ve been looking for to make sure! Need to trim by my beard line without botching up my beard in accident! Thanks!
Great review, first one to state it requires a two step process and is designed to cut stubble in place of a razor. Also the first one that speaks of cleaning with a disinfectant. 😉👍
theory74 I use the Wahl G-Whiz trimmer. The little battery operated one. It's not hard on the skin and it's sharp enough where you can line up your beard.
This comments are blowing my mind. I love the shaver only problem is I'm on my 3rd pair in three years. I use it for shaving my head after I have already cut it down to stubble. I was replacing the foil every few months. The battery went out on my last pair and would only work plugged in. First pair wouldn't hold a charge at all after about 8 months or so. I love the shavers just wish they were better quality. Maybe I wasn't pressing soft enough?
It sounds as though you are pressing too hard! We can also suggest switching to the Finale which has a lithium-ion battery if you are using this tool frequently.
IM A 37 YEAR old female, since I moved to Maryland, from Chicago,,I’ve been growing chin hair🥺😳🤔😫.. I USE BUMP PATROL AFTER THE NAIR.. looks like my skin getting darker, So i decide to purchase the WAHL 5 Star Shaver shaper, and Goodness It’s So smooth ‼️
Just purchased finale on Amazon, I’m sure I’ll love it but I need to know if I should dry shave or hot towel shave for face, I usually put hot towel, Do you know what process or steps I should follow for my skin?
My barber uses this shaver in me and I am impressed. Where can I find it and I'd also like to have some good clippers to trim down longer hairs before I do the close shave. Can you recommend a wahls trimmer?
Man my dad not being around i didnt know we couldn't use razors. I have tried razors and then when that kept breaking me out i went to the hair removal creams. That caused chemical burns. Finally got online did research and found these. They are good for black men who cannot use razors fr. I shave first with my clippers. Then go over my face with these. Cleanest clost shave. And like bruh said dont press down hard on ur face and use a slow smooth rhythm. They work. I would not have wasted my time cosigning for this item.
Mine lasted a little over a year until the solder on the battery broke loose. The charging cable does not hold well so they are retired. Wish they lasted as long as my other clippers/shapers
These would work really well for a head shave if you are looking to go completely bald. It is important to note that all hair must first be down to a stubble before using.
If you want a clean shave, then hair will need to be down to a stubble. If you are looking to clean up the stragglers, you can use this shaver over the top of hair.
I am sure you got paid to do this,( you should, it`s good! ) because the part on disinfecting was worth 100 bucks alone. Most people stop going to the barber because the notice NO disinfecting is taking place between customers. Thanks for putting that out there for the shade-tree barbers.. Your videos are really good....thanks
+10GALLEN81 Thanks! We take pride in taking care of our tools and most importantly our customers. Proper maintenance is essential for this machine to run efficiently.
Yes this foil head is easily replaceable. The foil heads are sold at your local Sally Beauty Supply store. The link here shows how to replace and clean your foil head and cutter bars. ruclips.net/video/AJ5u637Qu5A/видео.html
It does not need to be oiled as frequently as many of our other products. These essentially need to be oiled after using a disinfectant because they will oxidize the blades.
702beastside All Wahl Professional products come with a one year warranty. If it has been longer than a year the charge will be approximately $25. Give our customer service a call at 815-625-6525 and they will get the Shaver running good as new.
Question, can a black guy use this on their face without fear of razor bumps or burns? I’m contemplating on getting this shaver but I never seen a black dude use it on his face before
When I got it out of the box after using it a few times it died out so I charged it for about an hour and it only lasted bout 30 seconds. Now when I charge it, it won't even turn on! Is there supposed to be a light on it when it's on charge? I've only have it for a day.... What do I do
Antonino Sarullo send it back but from what you said out of the box an you used it a few times did you charge it the correct amount of hours I believe it's to be charged for 8 or 12 hours before usage it's not a full charge when purchased.
can anyone tell me if cosmetologists can purchase this and use this legally under our license? or do we have to have a barber license since it's a shaver? thanks :)
you can get them at most barber/cosmo supply chain's. I would think anyone could use it because it's not a blade so there shouldn't be any restrictions on it
Cydnie Baldwin The beauty of this tool is that anyone can use it! There are zero restrictions for cosmetologists on using this tool. This could be a great new feature for your male clients.
+Wahlpro Stubble. I tried it out on my beard, following the same technique as used in the video, but no hair came off. I had to revert back to my Walgreens razor to get the job done.
This will not cut down hair on a beard. You will need to sue a trimmer first to take the hair all the way down, then the Shaver will finish the job for you.
I JUST ordered these. I've been using my Panasonic Arc 3 for five years. My fiancée hasn't been impressed. She's been begging me to get the Wahl Profesional for a while, now. Meanwhile, I've been seeing them pop up at several barber shops. I must be something to them. I hope they do a good job.
Bought this shavers today to help me keep my head shaved. Using a razor everyday gets to be a bit much. I'm unimpressed with it. The shaver can't even get the little amount of stubble that I have on my head. 1 out 5 stars.
I know this is really random but the Wahl team should really, really change the Cliniclip, Blade Ice, and Blade Oil packaging and I guarantee they will sell 5 times more then they are now. They look real bad in terms of design take a look at Andis Cool Care, Blade Oil, and Blade Care real nice and clean fonts designs etc just something to consider.
Moh The Barber Hi Moh, we just changed our packaging to a vintage blue look to make them all look like a family (finally!). Thank you for your suggestion, we appreciate all feedback from our customers.
Have you tried the 5 Star Finale? This tool has an upgraded lithium ion battery, enhanced cutter bar that better protects foil vibration, and the closest cutting foils on the market!
Make sure that you cutter bars are well oiled and in good condition. A dent or missing tooth in the cutter bar can cause harm to those you are cutting.
Improve the foil. Its too thin and flimsy, it constantly ends up with holes. Also improve the battery life. I notice my red wahl 5 star shaver sometimes nicks the skin and it hurts, ive felt it on my skin amd clients have told me. Great shaver but can be improved, and i dont see why it hasnt yet, especially with everybody has the exact same problems with it. All in all it does the job and gets skin close
Hi Gene, Have you used the Finale shaver? This has an improved lithium-ion battery and an hanced cutter bar that reduces foil vibration. It is important to note that in order to get this skin close cut, these foils must be made in this style. A light touch should be used and the foils should never be pressed into the skin.
Wahlpro hello, I my 5 star shaver stopped working today. It started slowly losing power like usual, but after charging it, it was very weak and completely died within a few seconds. I bought it sometime in 2016 or 2017, i do not have the recipt or box anymore so I don't remember. Can I get it repaired or replaced? Its really going to affect my bussiness as this is the only shaver I own.

Stoned Stone lol seriously
This shaver is life ♡ worth every dollar. I had to get this as Christmas gifts for EVERYONE!
+Brenda Salcedo We're glad you love it!
"I think a few people still owe me 2 or 3 dollars.... And I still want it" hahaha
Pure motivation bruhh!

Thank you for the demo getting a set for hubby for Xmas
He's going to love it!
Grabbed this and it definitely helps make tapers and bald fades look extra crisp.
Love to hear it!
This shaved my life! thank you
Ha!
can wahl please sponsor this dude so professional 10 outta 10
Already is!
For being in the academy for a law enforcement officer this is the best thing ever for keeping my head shaved!
I've recently started getting my head shaved bald and my barber uses this razor on me,liked it so much after two cuts,I bought it myself
Love your explanation on how to keep it clean, thank you 💖💖💖
So glad I got this for Christmas. I can't use razors so this was a must have.
Looks like a great product. Great presentation, thanks for your back story ! Congratulations on your success!
We appreciate the kind words Bill!
Great review, first one to state it requires a two step process and is designed to cut stubble in place of a razor. Also the first one that speaks of cleaning with a disinfectant. 😉👍
Which trimmer do you recommend to trim down facial/beard hair close enough, in order to gain optimal performance from the 5 Star Shaver?
theory74 Either the Hero or Detailer!

MaeSekou Sold at your local Sally Beauty Supply! The Hero or Detailers would be great trimmers to help get hair down to a close stubble.
I purchased one of these and it didn’t shave at all!!! Is there something I’m doing wrong.
Make sure that you trim the hair down to a short stubble before using the shaver to finish it off.
Works like a charm... best spent dollars of 2020 thank you for this review 👌🏾
My heart beat for wahl
Can I use it on my head? To make it bald?
Yes, you will need to make sure hair is down to a stubble first before using though. It cannot be long hair.
Man my dad not being around i didnt know we couldn't use razors. I have tried razors and then when that kept breaking me out i went to the hair removal creams. That caused chemical burns. Finally got online did research and found these. They are good for black men who cannot use razors fr. I shave first with my clippers. Then go over my face with these. Cleanest clost shave.

How does this shaver compare to the Braun series 7's?
im about to buy one myself i been cutting hair for about 10 years and to be honest i never used one before hope it work
Thanks Edwin, we think you will love the results! Just be sure to use a light touch and do not apply too much pressure.
Ok thanks again...
how do i take apart a super shaver
Do you have to oil it before you use it for the first time
No you do not
@@Wahlpro okay thank you
Can I use it to bring the hair on my head to a smooth bald without the bumps on the back of my neck?
Yes you should be able to, no problem.
Mine lasted a little over a year until the solder on the battery broke loose. The charging cable does not hold well so they are retired. Wish they lasted as long as my other clippers/shapers
Dave,
Give us a call ASAP at 815-625-6525 and we will get these repaired for you!
Great video. Thanks for the information.
How are you sir?.. Would you recommend these for shaving my head bald or do you have a recommendation besides a razor or magic shave?
These would work really well for a head shave if you are looking to go completely bald. It is important to note that all hair must first be down to a stubble before using.
If you want a clean shave, then hair will need to be down to a stubble. If you are looking to clean up the stragglers, you can use this shaver over the top of hair.

wat do i do wen the cage or wateva it is tht covers the razors rips? is it replacable n how?
Yes this foil head is easily replaceable. The foil heads are sold at your local Sally Beauty Supply store. The link here shows how to replace and clean your foil head and cutter bars.
ruclips.net/video/AJ5u637Qu5A/видео.html
Great Inspirational Video!
if i shave with it at least twice a week how long until i need to replace the blades and the foil?
Once a year as long as you are using a light touch
8
Ok I’m sold.
I don't do it but can this be used with an electric shave gel or splash?
It would work fine with an electric shave splash, a gel may be too thick for the holes of this tool.
wahlpro gotcha. that's what I was thinking. thanks for the info.
Tell me do you need oil on shavers
Occasionally you can oil the cutter bars (not the foils).
I just got mine about 2 weeks ago or less and it keeps cutting my clients lower back neck area. What can I do to prevent the cutting?
Hmmm that is a bit unusual. Perhaps a pre-shave powder would be a good option for you.
Can i use this on my legs and arms?
GUSTAVOPINGPONG Yes you can! Hair must be down to a stubble first though. If hair is too long, it will pull.
The blades need to be oiled? It doesnt come with a little oil bottle like the trimmer...
It does not need to be oiled as frequently as many of our other products. These essentially need to be oiled after using a disinfectant because they will oxidize the blades.
How often are you supposed to clean and disinfect the shaver?
+LilCrazyMan Between every client!
How much to repair the shaver?

is it only for shaving or does it also do outlines?
+Abs Yusuf You can shaver, clean up lines and edges, go over the top of the head, clean up designs, etc... This really is the Ultimate Finishing Tool!
can you use this shaver as a regular daily face shaver, or is it just a "finishing" tool? What is the difference?
Yes, you can absolutely use this as an every day tool for shaving!
@@Wahlpro Thank you. Most of these shavers are promoted as "finishing" tools
@@robertkushner156 Correct because you can do more than just shave with them!
@@Wahlpro Oh, I see. I thought it was about how the hairs are caught in the foils (?) Thank you.
Sound ?
When I got it out of the box after using it a few times it died out so I charged it for about an hour and it only lasted bout 30 seconds. Now when I charge it, it won't even turn on! Is there supposed to be a light on it when it's on charge? I've only have it for a day.... What do I do
+Antonino Sarullo Give our customer service a call ASAP at 815-625-6525 and we can get this fixed.
Antonino Sarullo send it back but from what you said out of the box an you used it a few times did you charge it the correct amount of hours I believe it's to be charged for 8 or 12 hours before usage it's not a full charge when purchased.
thumbs ☝ great video i love this shaver so does everyone at home
are you supposed to use any oil on your face before using this shaver?
We do not recommend it as the oils can fill the holes in the foils causing it to work inefficiently.
Hello, I'm from chile, and let me know which is better and why... wahl shaver or andis shaver???
The Wahl Shaver of course! It is made in the USA, has closer cutting foils, and is easier to clean and maintain.
+wahlpro Okay, but what has to voltage model 220? the finale? or the other?
Finale is available in 220v
+wahlpro thank you
My purple friend will really like this!
Thank you Mr. Lyons!
How long does the shaver take to charge?
8 hours
Wahlpro Thanks! That’s the first charge or ever time for recharge?
@@supadigga for every recharge. If you are looking for a quicker recharge we would recommend the Finale Shaver.
This saved my life!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! OH MY GOD
Here in 2022🔥
Why does he call it the shaver shaver? Is that what it's called correct me if I'm wrong thanks:-)
He is referring to the machine as the Shaver Shaper!
I don't know if this is a dumb question, but can a "5 Star" clipper be suitably used for asian hair? :X
Thinking of getting a Magic Clip Cordless.
+Anthony Tan The Cordless Magic Clip would be a good choice for your hair texture!
+wahlpro Even specifically the "5 Star" Magic Clip Cordless?
Actually the Cordless Designers would be better suited for straight hair.
+wahlpro I read somewhere that that the Magic Clipper is better for fades than the Designer because of the blade?
Correct, it is better for tighter fades (i.e. bald fade) because the blade lies to closer to the skin.
this is the best shaver ever..you dont need anything else
Agreed, we are glad you like it so much!
Great video, great product. 5 Star Finale is the newer version.
from a homeless man to a rich man.
0:32 what's that little boy gonna do with a shaver?
Shaver can be used for fading, cleaning up stragglers, etc... This is not just a tool for shaving the face and neck it is an all-around finishing tool
can anyone tell me if cosmetologists can purchase this and use this legally under our license? or do we have to have a barber license since it's a shaver? thanks :)
you can get them at most barber/cosmo supply chain's. I would think anyone could use it because it's not a blade so there shouldn't be any restrictions on it
+onlineprof13 thanks

where's your barbershop?
G-Whiz cuts hair in Joliet, IL!
am getting it hate shaveing
Am I missing something? I'm shaving in a slow steady manner like the guy said but no hair is coming off???
Billy, are you shaving longer hair or stubble? This machine will only cut stubble.
+Wahlpro Stubble. I tried it out on my beard, following the same technique as used in the video, but no hair came off. I had to revert back to my Walgreens razor to get the job done.
+Billy McMahon I must be doing something wrong as this shaver is getting an abundance of positive reviews.
This will not cut down hair on a beard. You will need to sue a trimmer first to take the hair all the way down, then the Shaver will finish the job for you.
Good Video, funny keep it up thanks
nice story, you desserve those 3 dollars man, inspiring!
I'm getting one ...tired of the the bumps on the back of neck
I JUST ordered these. I've been using my Panasonic Arc 3 for five years. My fiancée hasn't been impressed. She's been begging me to get the Wahl Profesional for a while, now. Meanwhile, I've been seeing them pop up at several barber shops. I must be something to them. I hope they do a good job.
We hope you like them! Reminder hair must be down to a stubble and to use a light touch!
This video was dope
how much are they?
Standard Retail Price= $76
Thank you for sharing this review here.
Bought this shavers today to help me keep my head shaved. Using a razor everyday gets to be a bit much. I'm unimpressed with it. The shaver can't even get the little amount of stubble that I have on my head. 1 out 5 stars.
good Enough for my barber to use then it's good enough for me. time for me to buy one
Clean great video! Nuff said.
I takes practice being a barber I cut my own hair sometimes I go to a barber and learn how to cut hair and trim beard.
lol wow they still owing u 2 or 3 dollars i still want mine to bro from many years ago love it lol good video.
I know this is really random but the Wahl team should really, really change the Cliniclip, Blade Ice, and Blade Oil packaging and I guarantee they will sell 5 times more then they are now. They look real bad in terms of design take a look at Andis Cool Care, Blade Oil, and Blade Care real nice and clean fonts designs etc just something to consider.

That's awesome news, where can I see the new packaging?
It's up on our website!
Good shaver but honestly the Andis lithium shavers stays charged longer and the foils don't break as easy.Gotta go with Andis on this one
Have you tried the 5 Star Finale? This tool has an upgraded lithium ion battery, enhanced cutter bar that better protects foil vibration, and the closest cutting foils on the market!
marcello kendall it's also almost impossible to properly clean.
My wahl shavers r cutting people and the foil isn’t even broken it’s sounds excessively loud
Make sure that you cutter bars are well oiled and in good condition. A dent or missing tooth in the cutter bar can cause harm to those you are cutting.
Perfect
Damn that white man's lineup was on fleek.
JzawitaJ haha yeah, it was enhanced tho, or "painted on"
JzawitaJ his haircut made no sense tho.

Improve the foil. Its too thin and flimsy, it constantly ends up with holes. Also improve the battery life. I notice my red wahl 5 star shaver sometimes nicks the skin and it hurts, ive felt it on my skin amd clients have told me. Great shaver but can be improved, and i dont see why it hasnt yet, especially with everybody has the exact same problems with it. All in all it does the job and gets skin close
Hi Gene,
Have you used the Finale shaver? This has an improved lithium-ion battery and an hanced cutter bar that reduces foil vibration.
It is important to note that in order to get this skin close cut, these foils must be made in this style. A light touch should be used and the foils should never be pressed into the skin.
