Important Features of an Electric Hair Clipper
The global electric hair clipper and trimmer market is estimated at USD 5.3 billion in 2018. Personal grooming is the main factor driving the market growth. Electric clippers are skin-friendly, safe, and easier to use than conventional razors. In addition to improving personal grooming, the advent of innovative products is expected to boost the growth of the market. In June 2019, Chinese technology giant Xiaomi introduced a beard trimmer for men in India.
The main component of an electric hair clipper is a motor that moves the blades. The motor, which is either battery or electricity-powered, is mounted on a piston, which is attached to a blade. The motor moves in a horizontal fashion while making a slight vertical axis movement. The motor forces the blades to rub against each other, cutting hair without ripping it from the scalp. Before using an electric hair clipper, users must brush out the blades and apply lubrication oil every other cut.
Another important feature of an electric hair clipper is its lightweight and compact construction. These characteristics help it to be convenient and attractive to patrons. The blade unit is placed within a temporary space, which allows the barber to complete the haircut while still maintaining the blades at a constant speed. The present invention not only improves the functionality of electric hair clippers, but also provides improved shearing effects. So, if you are looking for a good electric hair clipper, check out the features below:
One advanced feature of an electric hair clipper is its taper lever. A taper lever helps you change the length more precisely than switching combs or shifting the bottom blade. Its position must be secure to avoid accidental movement. The taper lever is an essential feature for finely blending hair of various lengths. So, if you're going to use an electric hair clipper frequently, make sure it has a taper lever to make it easier to adjust.
If you're planning on cutting your own hair, before you start the cutting process, you should make sure you have properly washed your hair. You should also use a mild shampoo and conditioner. A good all-around body wash is recommended, as hair that has not been washed can get clogged up with products and can cause uneven hair cuts. If possible, try not to leave your hair wet during the cutting process. If you can, towel dry your hair afterward and remove any tangles before clipping.
