Hair Clipper for Shaved Head?

Hi, I shave my own head at home.
Have used budget big w clippers for a while but it’s starting to get old and wear.
Whats a recommendation for easy use home clippers?
Non oil blades preferred, budget <100$, tx

  • For metal blades anything designed to last will use oil. I have had some ceramic blade clippers once, still have them over 14 years on, still good, but they were WAYYYY over you budget.

    Bit over your budget but something like this will last many many years and only $134.10 on sale now, https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/133831672105?chn=ps&_ul=AU&mkevt…

    From a fellow follicl'y challenged/clippered headed person
    Remington Rapid Cut Turbo
    https://www.remington-products.com.au/products/rapid-cut-tur…

    Been using one for years, and works so well even bought a spare for the cupboard a couple years back when they had a sale…

    Way easier and ergonomic to use than any straight blade clippers.
    Should be obtainable under $100

    • This is an excellent clipper if you do your own hair. Tried pretty much everything and this is by far the best one. Yes Wahl have better blade quality but this one leaves any Wahl I've used for dead. I use a combo of the 1.5, 2 and 2.5mm combs that come with it

      The downside is that you cannot find replacement combs.

      If you want a generic brand of what I think is the same thing but with less comb options:

      • How close does that Temu one cut without a comb? Temu website unhelpful.

          If it's same blades as rapid cut it's less than 1mm

    A bit more than your budget - $129 but it's currently on sale Pitbull Silver PRO Head Shaver. My brother got it last year & recommends.

    • depends if they want 'shaved' or 'clipper' results. Good option for 'shaved'

      • OP mentioned both

      I've been using this for 6 months, its good.
      May save a bit more at their eBay shop

  • I use the Remington Rapid Cut.

  • My preferred is Skull Shaver Beast Clipper Pro. It gives the shortest clip out of any I have tried without going full bald.

    Got mine on sale for $40 from Shaver Shop. Deal comes around a few times a year. Cheapest atm seems to be MyDeal for $50.

  • If you're happy with a clipped look rather than a smooth shave I've been using a Vidal Sassoon Crew Cut for years. Does need oiling and is just over budget at ~$120 but being able to shave in any direction means you're done in less than a minute.

    Shaved or clipped?

    if you're wanting shaved then go with a foil shaver, so good. I got the $40 one from Aldi and it's going strong.

  • clipped but on the lowest setting, mostly i use Big w unit with no attachment so the clip is less than 1mm and close to shaved
