After weeks at home, many are beginning to miss some of the routine parts of our lives, like grabbing a coffee or scheduling a haircut.

While it’s best to let professionals take care of more complicated requests, if you’re willing to attempt a simple at-home version of your usual services, there are tools that can help get the job done until shops begin to reopen.

For gentlemen looking to trim back their beards and hair, the Wahl Canada Home Pro Haircutting Kit might be just the tool needed.

What is it?

The Wahl Home Haircutting Kit is a multifunctional trimmer that comes with 22 pieces to tackle any home haircut. Along with a multi-cut trimmer, the kit comes with a selection of combs and clips, scissors and a storage case to keep everything safe.

It includes guide combs that range from 1/8” to 1” in length, meaning you can tailor your cut to your desired hair length. Self-sharpening blades stay in top form longer, and an ergonomic clipper shape makes it easy to hold and cut at different angles.

What shoppers are saying

Retailing for just $25, it’s quickly become an Amazon bestseller with a 4.3 star rating on over 1,500 reviews.

“This is an amazing hair clipper. It has a very good build quality and is pretty easy to handle,” said one reviewer. “While using this clipper, I was able to shave the sides of my hair with ease even though it was my first time doing this.”

“I cut my own hair, and this makes the task very simple and straightforward,” added another. “The blades are sharp, the guides are accurate, and with a little time, you too can become your own barber. I have even cut my friend's hair with this, and had very good, professional looking results.”

Some shoppers have noted that the clippers are on the loud side when running and that they can become jammed if not cleaned out between uses, but making sure that you properly disassemble and clean out all parts between uses should help keep it running properly.

The verdict

While not recommended for professional use, if you’re looking for a quick and easy way to trim hair, this affordable trimmer kit is a solid choice. Nor only does it work for human hair, if you have a pet that’s in need of grooming, it also works well to keep fur looking its best.
