Wahl Blade Replacement - Clipper Blades and Wahl Hair Clipper Oil
The key to keeping your clipper system in top shape - Wahl clipper blade replacements. Worn blades give uneven cuts. Missed hairs require you to go back over sections to ensure every hair is properly trimmed. The longer you spend cutting your hair, the more wear and tear on the clipper's motor.
The other essential ingredient to long lasting clippers is Wahl hair clipper oil. Most clipper kits require lubrication to keep the blades in top shape. If you fail to oil the blades, they heat up due to friction, again putting more strain on the motor. Plus, hot blades may snap during use or burn your skin.
Purchasing Replacement Wahl Clipper Blades
When purchasing Wahl Clipper Blade replacements, make sure you have your clipper's model number available. It's important you get the right blades, whether they are standard or T-blades. Each blade fits onto the clipper or trimmer differently, so purchasing the correct blade is important.
A Wahl clipper blade set is very reasonably priced. Most sets are priced (2009) at $10 a set. Far less than purchasing a new clipper kit. In addition, you can purchase kits that mix clipper blade sets with replacement trimmer attachments. This is especially handy for having spares in case of breakage or loss.
Importance of Wahl Hair Clipper Oil
Wahl hair clipper oil keeps blades cooler while you use the clippers. In addition, the Wahl formulation includes a cleaner that disinfects and sanitizes.
There are other lubricants on the market, but the Wahl Hair Clipper Oil is the only one to cool, lubricate and sanitize every time you use it.
Keep Your Clippers/Trimmers Clean
The final step to a long lasting set of clippers or trimmers is routine maintenance. You should clean your trimmers or clippers after every use. If you allow hair to build up behind the blades, they will drag while cutting causing wear and tear on both the blades and the motor.
Use canned air to remove all cut hairs. If necessary, remove the blades and give the trimmer's head a full clean out before putting the blades back on. If your blades show any sign of deterioration, replace them.
