Wahl Magic Clip 5 Stars Series, Type STX - Professional electric shaver for hair
Full review — Wahl Magic Clip 5 Stars Series, Type STX — Professional electric shaver for hair
Wahl: a name, a guarantee for fans of haircuts, beard styling and, in general, personal care. It is one of the most famous manufacturers in the sector, chosen as a supplier by many professional barbers as well. One of those brands, in short, of which those who become attached can no longer do without. Wahl also deals with bringing its professional products to the general public, meeting the needs of the most common users. Let’s see, in this review, the strengths and weaknesses of one of the most successful products: the Magic Clip electric hair clipper from the 5 Stars series, model STX.
Cutting and blades
The hair clipper is equipped with ceramic blades, model 2191, with the possibility of setting eight different lengths.
Supply
This hair clipper is powered by a cable, to be inserted directly into a common socket. The cable is two and a half meters long and is resistant to chemicals. There is no possibility to load the hair clipper through a special dock, as is the case for other appliances, and then be used wirelessly. If you prefer this feature you will have to turn to other products, some offered by the same Wahl, which however adopts a different policy for its models closer to those used in the professional environment.
Dimensions
With 590 grams of weight, the Wahl Magic Clip 5 Stars Series is in the «heavyweight» category. Again, it is clear that Wahl is thinking of users who want to get closer to professional reality. A heavier hair clipper certainly requires a good «workout» to be handled, but it is also extremely practical and solid, with materials that do not give that impression of durable plastic that characterizes other models. The greater weight will also be your ally to achieve precise cuts even on hard and very thick hair.
Functions and accessories
The Wahl Magic Clip will come in a pack containing all the accessories needed for maintenance. An oil to lubricate the system, the precision combs to be installed above the blade, a brush to clean the appliance after each use.
Quality price
This Magic Clip clipper proposed by Wahl, now we have guessed it, is not a product designed for everyone, but is instead addressed to the most demanding customers, looking for a professional product. For this reason the price may discourage some buyers; however, there is the certainty that every euro spent will be well invested in a quality hair clipper, specialized in its task.

What are hair cut machines?
The hair cutting machines are tools designed to take care of the cutting and care of your hair in the comfort of your home. So these are tools that allow you to cut and style your hair according to your needs. These hair-cutting machines have more or less a very similar structure and design; the characteristics of these instruments are of various types and make these machines extremely practical and functional. Depending on your needs and the type of hair, you will be able to find hair-cutting machines that have the right characteristics to adapt to your needs. Between hair cut machines, electric razors and automatic machines, you will not be spoiled for choice!
What are these tools for?
Hair cutting machines are small electrical appliances that are used to take care of cutting and defining your hair. So the main function of these tools is really related to hair cutting. In fact these machines resemble a lot, and in some cases they are exactly the same, to those used in the studios of professional hairdressers. Furthermore, hair cutting machines can be used not only to simply cut hair; you can use them, varying the various accessories that you will find in the package, also to carry out operations such as shearing, climbing, removing and finishing the hair. So we can say that, by buying a hair cut machine, you will go to buy a really complete tool that will allow you to take care of your hair in a rather efficient manner. There are also some hairdressers who exclusively use the hair-cutting machine for their work; so understand that this is a really great tool to take care of your hair. Thanks to the many functions of these tools, and often also to the accessories that you will find included in the package, you can make a hair cut that will be really beautiful aesthetically.
How to use hair cutting machines?
The hair cut machines are tools usually characterized by a certain practicality of use. Often those who are not used to cutting their hair by themselves may think that using these tools could be really difficult and therefore not suitable for everyone. In reality, hair cut machines are tools made to be simple enough to use. It is obvious that you will need to do some practice, especially if you have never used them, but eventually you will learn to use them without problems! How should these hair cutting machines be used? First of all you will have to start by choosing the right machine for your needs, especially choosing the right cutting size based on your needs. Obviously you will have to start with wet hair, so shampoo before you start. But do not leave your hair completely wet, otherwise you risk creating machine problems. Then rub them well with a towel. Then insert the tool that is the length that fits the cut you want to make. Keep the hair cutter so that the blades are facing downwards. Begin to pass the machine in a regular manner over the entire scalp and without being in a hurry. Haste could lead you to make mistakes that you won’t be able to fix. A useful tip for using the hair-cutting machine is to divide the head into sections of the same size and pass the machine following this scheme. By applying this technique you will be able to make a smooth and uniform cut. After cutting the hair on the nape, finish trimming the sideburns and shaping the hair at the base of the neck. At this point you will have finished and, if you followed these simple instructions, you will have achieved a perfect haircut!
Are they really useful?
One of the most common issues concerning haircutting machines is their real usefulness. In fact, many think that the results that can be obtained with these instruments are not comparable to those of the hairdresser; or others still think that the use of these machines is not suitable for everyone. These are indeed questions and questions that should be considered before going to buy one of these tools. A hair-cutting machine is a device almost identical to the machines used by hairdressers. It is true that those who use them at home cannot compare their technique to that of a professional, but these machines still allow you to save time and money by making a haircut of all respect. So, however, these are really very useful tools and quite comfortable to use. Keep in mind though that maybe, before getting a good result, you will have to do some practice. If you have no patience and you are frightened by the idea of cutting your own hair, perhaps using a hair-cutting machine is not very suitable for you. But, if you have a sense of initiative and are ready to learn and test yourself, you could try your hand at using a haircut.
Why should you buy a haircut?
The answer to this question we have already given in part in the preceding paragraphs. Buying a hair cutting machine could be a good investment for the future. Once you learn how to use it, you can personally take care of cutting your hair. In this way you will avoid going to the hairdresser continuously and you will save both time and money. A hair cutting machine is practical and useful especially for men. Since they cut their hair much more often than women, it will be for men that buying a hair-cutting machine will prove to be excellent. Moreover, above all those who have little time to go to the hairdresser; having a hair-cutting machine always available and therefore being able to take care of the cut when and how you want it, is certainly a big advantage.
Difference between hair cutting machine and electric razor
How does a hair-cutting machine differ from a normal electric razor? Well, while it seems that these two tools can be used for the same purpose, in reality they have very different characteristics. Hair cutting machine and electric razor are used for two very different purposes. The hair cutting machine is essentially used to go and cut hair. With these machines it is also possible to finish the cut and choose the length of cut you want to make. Instead the electric razor is a device that has been designed especially to take care of shaving. So, whether it’s hair or beard, the razor will completely shave the area of your choice.
To summarize then, the hair cutting machine is dedicated to cutting and finishing the hair, instead the razor serves only to perform a shaving process.
How much does an electric haircut cost?
Let’s now move on to one of the most important questions concerning the hair cutting machine: the price. When approaching the purchase and use of a hair-cutting machine, most people wonder how much these tools cost and if the costs associated with buying haircuts are excessive. Well, you can rest assured in this respect, most haircutting machines are quite affordable. In addition, there are many hair cut models on the market that have very different prices and are therefore also adaptable to different pocket needs. We can start from a sale price of around € 18 up to the most expensive products that can cost around € 100 or even more. In this case we are talking about hair-cutting machines and keep in mind that, when we talk about prices higher than € 100, we mean professional-type machines. As for electric razors, these products are also characterized by different prices. We start from a minimum of € 15 up to the most professional razors that can cost around € 100 or more. The same goes for beard rule machines that have more or less the same costs.
Which parts is a hair-cutting machine made of?
Let’s move on to a slightly more technical topic. What are the characteristics of the hair cutting machine, or rather, specifically, from which and how many parts are these products made up? Well, like any small appliance, even hair-cutting machines are composed of an external casing that contains the motor, the fulcrum of the product’s action. In principle, however, we can divide the components of the hair cutting machines in this way:
- External structure. The structure of an electric hair cutter is made up of a single piece, usually of plastic and metal. The shape of the structure is quite thin and is usually equipped with a comfortable and ergonomic handle which is very simple to use. On the upper side of the structure the blades are positioned which will then provide the actual cut.
- Lame. The blades are certainly the most important part of an electric haircut. The blades should always be in stainless steel, which is therefore stainless and durable. Stainless steel blades will guarantee you a better and more uniform cut and at the same time will have a better life.
- Interchangeable combs. Interchangeable combs are additional accessories that can be placed on the blades. Their purpose is to adjust the cut and adapt it to your needs. Then using these combs you can decide the length of the cut you are going to make.
- Supply. The type of power supply most used for hair cutting machines is certainly the use of a battery. Bacteria usually have an autonomy of about 1 hour and can be recharged very easily; in fact in most cases in the purchase package you will also find a convenient charging station for the hair cutting machine.
Main features
What are the essential and most important features that characterize hair cut machines? Before starting to talk about these characteristics, let’s go to indicate precisely what we mean when we talk about these characteristics. By main features we mean the elements or functions that are an integral part of the structure of these machines or that are necessary for them to work in the right way. Let’s examine them together:
- Materials and structure. The construction materials are very important, good materials guarantee a more robust and resistant structure. Furthermore, thanks to good materials, the structure of the hair cutting machines will last much longer and will therefore ensure the correct functioning of this instrument.
- Power and autonomy. In most cases, hair cut machines work through the use of rechargeable batteries. This is a good type of power supply that fits quite well with the use of these tools. Using a battery power supply, the hair-cutting machines usually manage a life of about 1 hour.
- Blades and cutting. The blades are certainly the main feature of any hair cutting machine. It is the blades that allow you to use these tools in order to get good results on your hair. The blades can have different shapes and sizes, which is why you should choose a machine that has blades and cutting functions that suit your needs.
- Functions. As for the functions, most of the hair cutting machines on the market are equipped with various customizable cutting levels. Besides, besides being able to cut, you will also have the possibility to adjust the length, remove or shave.
- Accessories. The accessories included in the sales package of a hair-cutting machine are a very interesting feature; this is because they allow you to go and use these tools in a versatile way.
Advantages of these tools
What are the main advantages of using a hair cut machine? We have already anticipated some in the initial paragraphs, but we will examine others that will make you understand the real utility of these tools. The main advantage that derives from the use of a hair-cutting machine is certainly the possibility of dealing personally with one’s own haircut. You can then cut your hair comfortably at home and without having to go to the hairdresser. In addition to being an advantage in terms of saving time, using a hair clipper can also help you save money. Especially men who need to cut their hair more often will certainly find it advantageous to buy and use a haircut machine. Furthermore, another advantage of these tools is certainly the possibility of using them as and when you want. You will not need to make appointments or even to organize your commitments according to the hairdresser. You can simply decide the best time for you to dedicate yourself to cutting and caring for your hair. Furthermore, these tools designed for hair cutting are also quite simple to use. Just do a little practice and eventually you will develop the right dexterity that will get you good results in a fairly short time.
Possible disadvantages
What about the disadvantages presented by some hair cut machines? Well, if we really want to talk about some negative features of these tools, we can certainly mention the fact that these are tools that are not suitable for everyone. It takes patience to learn how to use them and, who doesn’t have a certain manual ability, could be in difficulty. Or maybe those who do not want to create chance and disorder at home, could find these tools impractical. Keep in mind that it is always a haircut and that, when you use these machines, you will irreparably make dirt around. Your hair, no matter how careful you are, still risks going around the house. So if you have little patience and no intention of messing up at home, hair cut machines are not for you!
Essential technical features of the hair cutters
We talked about the main components and the most useful functions of hair cut machines, but what about technical features of these tools? Which are, from the technical point of view, those elements to which you should pay the most attention when buying a hair-cutting machine? Let’s analyze them together:
- Lame. As we have already mentioned above, blades are probably the essential component of hair cutting machines. The blades of a good haircut should be made of stainless steel, titanium or ceramic. These 3 materials are durable, precise and guarantee high quality performance. The type of result you will get also depends on the blades; so it is important that they have a width of 40 to 45 mm. In this way you will cover a larger surface and the cut will be more uniform and precise.
- Battery. Most of the hair cutters are powered by rechargeable batteries. Batteries, often lithium, are complemented by the presence of charging stations that guarantee fast charging. This type of power supply will allow you to have a cutting range that goes from a minimum of 30 minutes to a maximum of about 90 minutes of continuous use.
- Customizable functions. If you want to get a haircut different from the usual shaving, then you should buy a haircut machine that has customizable cutting features. This means that it should be possible to adjust the length of the cut using special interchangeable combs that can be mounted according to need.
- Autonomy. As we mentioned earlier, hair cut machines usually have a range that can range from a minimum of 30 minutes to a maximum of 90 minutes. If you want to cut your hair without constantly worrying about running out of battery, you should choose products that have more autonomy.
Main functions of these products
What can I do with a hair cut machine? The main function of these machines is precisely to cut the hair. In addition to cutting, however, you can also take advantage of some additional features of these tools. For example, you can use the various interchangeable combs to change the length of the cut. Or you can also take advantage of the functions that allow you to go to pull out, shave or even climb your hair. Furthermore, if you buy a tool that also includes beard care, you can even take care of beards and mustaches with just one product.
Process of using an electric hair cutter
Those who have never used a haircut machine may find it difficult to approach this tool for the first time. It is precisely in this case that our guide helps you. Using a haircut machine is not at all complicated; obviously those who have never used one will have to do some practice, but in the end you can do it. First of all you should start by choosing the comb or spacer that best suits the type of cut you want to make and the length you want to get. Once the spacer has been chosen and assembled, proceed with washing and drying the hair. Drying your hair is important because in this way you will avoid having the blades rust with water. At this point you can start with the actual cut. Use the machine by positioning it with the blades facing down and preferably against the skin. Move calmly and carefully without rushing; in this way you will be able to obtain a more regular and uniform cut. Moreover, especially if you are a beginner, it could also help you divide your hair into various sections and proceed following this pattern. Once the cut has been made, remove the spacer and proceed to outline the edges, both on the nape and on the sideburns. Also arrange the edges along the ears and clean the entire section at the base of the neck. Once the cut is finished, remember to clean the hair cutting machine so as to remove all hair residues and store it until the next use.
Maintenance and use
The hair cut machines are tools that do not require special maintenance. In fact, these are tools that, in addition to being simple to use, are also comfortable as they are not very complicated to keep in good condition. In fact, in addition to paying attention to small details when you use them, hair cutting machines do not require any particular maintenance. You just need to avoid using them on wet hair, especially if they have steel blades, because you risk getting them rusted. Also, if you notice that the blades start to be less fluid, you could use suitable oil to lubricate them. A further precaution is to always clean the machine after having used it, in doing so you will avoid having it clogged with cut hair.
Differences between the various models
On the market there are many models of hair cutting machines, each characterized by different functions that make them suitable for different needs. The choice between these different models depends very much on the use you make of the hair cutting machine and above all on the purpose for which you use it. The main difference between the various haircut models lies in the purpose for which they are designed and in the way they can be used. But let’s examine in detail the most common and popular hair cut models.
Hair cut machine
The haircut machine is the most classic of the available models of these instruments. It is a machine dedicated essentially to cutting and finishing hair. The models of classic hair cut machines are characterized by fairly basic functions and a series of customizable features. They are definitely the right tools for those looking for a good quality haircut that is not overly modern. The functions of these instruments are in fact more suitable for making cuts only, they cannot be used as razors to fix even the beard.
Rasa hair machine
The hair-straightening machines, on the other hand, are special tools that in some ways look a lot like normal hair-cutting machines. However, these tools are used exclusively to completely shave the hair. It is therefore a fusion between a hair-cutting machine and an electric razor. The structure and design is that of a normal hair-cutting machine, but the purpose for which they are made is practically identical to that of electric razors.
Razor for hair
The hair razor is a hair cutting machine dedicated exclusively to the total or partial shaving of your hair. The razor, however, differs from the hair-cutting machines because it is often equipped with a single cutting length or even with different cutting lengths, which however always require shaving. So these are tools for you if you just want to shave your hair and you don’t need a tool that allows you to make a real cut.
