My grandfather, uncle and cousin were all barbers. My uncle told me about the senior clippers, I've been and still use the same clipper for over 15 years. They are the only ones I've used.
I own several wahl clippers. I the the Legends are the most underrated Wahl clippers hands down...cut beautifully, further extension on the lever, the stagger teeth cut blade with the surgical blade made this clipper a real heavy hitter, plus the V9000 motor gives it tremendous power. Only wish it came cordless!
Uncle, the distinctive feature of the Wahl models is the motor, and the blade. That being said, most people could buy the different blades for about $20. If you know how to change and align the blades, you can just switch them back and forth. As for the motor units, anyone with mechanical and electrical experience can upgrade to the V9000 motor. You need the field coil, and mating armature. Some people may change the springs and cord, but it's not necessary. Of course, Wahl would never suggest that you can order the parts and upgrade cheap clippers to the strongest motor, and professional blade set.
Legend is a classic for sure!!! I love it! Haven’t used it since I went full cordless but if I ever get a corded clipper it’s definitely the legend for sure
I put that crunch blade on my Seniors and my Babyliss fx880. The cut game did change when I did make that change. It made the Babyliss clippers a million times better.
I have the Icon (exact same thing as the sterling 9), and it's pretty decent. I honestly think it's the same thing as a standard senior, just with a cheaper housing. That's the only thing that bothers me, the body feels a tad flimsy. Other than that, powers through the thickest hair and does decent fades.
Did he say that 5 Star legend costs $55? Where? I checked everywhere i cannot find anything below $120. If anybody knows where i can get it for that price he mentioned please reply
I got the combo with the legend and the hero for 100 bucks and that same local store was selling the legend alone for 50 dollars so idk where you live but in Sallys it goes for 65
Hey everyone , can someone explain the difference of the zero gap vs the normal gap out of the box ? What you sauggest me as a beginner ? Thank you so much !
@@ReggieWinston well for my use it is just a smoother cut no pulling and the size is a little more compact than some others. Its a little more compact than the oyster 76 model. And it is corded which i prefer over cordless as the batteries doesn't seem to last in many cordless clippers. Also i like the removal blades better than the adjustable at lest for my use as i like that smooth to the skin shave which is very easy to switch blades to a #00000 or a outliner blade for that bald shave. Also its nice the oyster and Andis blades are interchangeable with each other. But everyone each to their own.
Great video bro. Thank you! I wanted your opinion since your a fellow Wahl user. I have a pair of the corded magic clips with the surgical blade, and a set of original seniors. I absolutely loved the set of Oster Fast feeds I used because they saved me from running up and down through the guards with the long travel lever. Is this Wahls answer to the fast feeds? Man...the power of the wahl with the lever range of the feeds. Thoughts? Thank you!
Chie Parras I don’t think they are a solid buy. They are repainted cordless designers but cost more money. I would recommend that you buy the cordless magic clips instead
@@ReggieWinston thank you! This lockdown seemed to limit my options for Wahl models. Everyone's buying their own unit, there's few left to choose from 😁
As I post this comment here in COVID quarantined California May 2020 the prices are way higher for the clippers you CAN find but most are unavailable right now since hair salons and barber shops are closed and there's a run on these tools.
Try the crunch surgical blade on the senior ..... It's a beast I have Andis Masters and the Phat Masters with the Wahl senior surgical crunch blade. That change the game ... No guards needed at all .. From balding straight to #2 with no guards ... Fading never felt or look so sweet .. Try it
After watching a lot of reviews on UA-cam I was settling for the Wahl Hero but I heard from that it burns out faster. Now I am having the dilemma of choosing between the hero and the legend. I will like to know which one gives a closer shave between the Hero and the legend and which one lasts longer.
Juan Manuel I switched my 1919 blade and blade slide with the legends. Magic clips have a great blade setup too. You don’t have to switch those out but feel free and experiment
Yes I do. I love having @scissors_clinic zero gapping and tuning my clippers. The legend isn't the flagship model. The senior is the standard. But the legend is the best in my opinion. More bang for the buck
you titled this correctly so can't complain, but video isn't of much use without any type of breakdown by category and ratings etc. I am interested in the Legend now, but hard to quantify "amazing" in any way lol. I did enjoy watching though
@@ReggieWinston you know what I did I place the wedge blade Legend on the cordless magic clip and it works very good you can also install it into the cordless Andis Envy
If i was wahl I would make the legend cordless game changer 👌✔️👌 but I did think about taking that bracket and blade to see if it fit the wahl cordless magic clip hmmmm
Victor Maldonado I took off the blade and this whole thing with lever from my wahl legend and placed it into Magic Clipp Man, this “creature” was god damn the best clipper that I used in my life I know one method to make the «wahl legend madness» (features about wild lever area) from ANY wahl clipper
Clipper companies will NEVER make a perfect product. You can tell how everything is only perfect if it's modified. When they make a perfect product, they lose sales on all the accessories. It's just part of the clipper game lol
@@romannihil987 Was the throw the same as the Legend? I would think you'd have to use the Legend lever with the Legend clipper to take advantage of the longer throw.
@@ReggieWinston Thank you very much for your reply. The purpose of buying my balding clipper was because I have to do more clean shave and equal to hair cutting na. I use this bulding clipper personal at my home.
Great video. You broke down the pros and cons of each clippers very well. Keep up the great work.
Omar Porter thank you very much. I'll strive to get better. Thanks for the feedback ✊🏾
My grandfather, uncle and cousin were all barbers. My uncle told me about the senior clippers, I've been and still use the same clipper for over 15 years. They are the only ones I've used.
Corded?
I just cut my own hair... but my ancient drug store clipper just died so this is a great review and made up my mind. Thanks!!

I the the Legends are the most underrated Wahl clippers hands down...cut beautifully, further extension on the lever, the stagger teeth cut blade with the surgical blade made this clipper a real heavy hitter, plus the V9000 motor gives it tremendous power.

Mack Wash I hope they make it cordless too
@@ReggieWinston they did and peoplr dont seem to like it that much
I make these ❤❤❤❤❤🔥 seeing videos like this makes me feel what I do is important. Thanks so much
Reggie I loved your review you are such a good fun but professional too. Enjoy life. Saluti from Italy
The corded Magic Clips are amazing. They don't come with the crunch blade but in typical Wahl fashion, the blades can be interchanged.
Uncle, the distinctive feature of the Wahl models is the motor, and the blade. That being said, most people could buy the different blades for about $20. If you know how to change and align the blades, you can just switch them back and forth. As for the motor units, anyone with mechanical and electrical experience can upgrade to the V9000 motor.

if you a barber and you use wahl legend, you will love to barb all day, because it is outstanding
Legend is a classic for sure!!! I love it! Haven’t used it since I went full cordless but if I ever get a corded clipper it’s definitely the legend for sure
Thank you great video. Keep them coming
Hey Reggie, I enjoyed the video, you came across as very passionate and informative. Thanks
So it's the Wahl legends ,. Alright then🤘💯
Nice video Reggie.
Going try a legend out.
Karmin is my preference😎💈
I put that crunch blade on my Seniors and my Babyliss fx880. The cut game did change when I did make that change. It made the Babyliss clippers a million times better.
Kevin Siebert yo that's too dope! If you are on IG you got to tag me in a pic of that modification. @reggie_winston
Helpful ❤️
I'm so glad I found this channel, amazing content
I just wanna get a home made Buzz cut. The Designer will be fine? Or should I go for a better model?

Love your review!
Thank you for sharing sir! Good video :)
Just in the box? I would have liked to see them outside.

Danielle How does Icon compare to Super Taper 2000?
The first one was good

fahim khandoker yes! eBay sellers aren’t jacking the prices up ridiculously. Go to Amazon or Atlantabarber.com
Reggie Winston thank you! I ordered one.
Lindsey Stump no problem. I ordered 2 myself lol
I got the combo with the legend and the hero for 100 bucks and that same local store was selling the legend alone for 50 dollars so idk where you live but in Sallys it goes for 65
Hey everyone , can someone explain the difference of the zero gap vs the normal gap out of the box ? What you sauggest me as a beginner ? Thank you so much !
I have used conair,wahl,and several others but my oster model 10 is my favorite. I will never use another clipper.
Kenneth Pollard nice! What makes that your favorite?

Just bought the wahl elite pro 3145 for $70, any good? Still time to cancel.
I am a Wahl Fan, Congratulations Bro you nail it whit this video very good, hands down 👏👏👏👐👐👐👐
Pablo Lumbsden thank you! I'm a fan too ✊🏾
Senior clippers my choice 🤙
isn't it heavy?
@@whg1504 That's what she said.
I wish I saw your review before I bought my Wahl Magic clipper.
Magic clip is better
Magic clips are the most useful ones. They are fun to use also
I gave the sterling 9 a try that thing gets hotter then a pan how do i fix it
Willy Romo you cannot use them for long periods are a time

What do u think about the Wahl cordless super taper?
Joel Sarabia I’ve yet to see them sold here in North Carolina
Gd am sir can i asked if u are sellings ur brand WHAL clippers
I just picked up the wahl legends the black ones with the hero. Any different from the ones you showed
J Mejia nice! Only difference is the lid
No difference. Just the lid
what do you think of Cordless Sterling 4 sir? thanks in advance!
Chie Parras I don’t think they are a solid buy. They are repainted cordless designers but cost more money. I would recommend that you buy the cordless magic clips instead
@@ReggieWinston thank you! This lockdown seemed to limit my options for Wahl models. Everyone's buying their own unit, there's few left to choose from 😁

Right. my old Wahl stopped working and was searching for a replacement. shocking to see the for these are selling now a day.
What u think about the new wahl colour pro clippers?
Jerry Marc I don’t have any experience with them
How much about price?
Love the 5 🌟 senior.. A beast!!$$$
Lj Didit fasho
What a same opinion!
The link to your Amazon store is not working...............DW.
I have wahl legend i love it's
Wanted V.I.P the most underrated clippers out
Try the crunch surgical blade on the senior .....
It's a beast
I have Andis Masters and the Phat Masters with the Wahl senior surgical crunch blade.
That change the game ...
No guards needed at all ..
From balding straight to #2 with no guards ...
Fading never felt or look so sweet ..
Try it
Great video
I am thinking of going for Wahl 1411.001 trimmer for purely home application just avoid going to barber during the lockdown period. Is the machine OK?
what do you think about Kemei magic clip ?
akram laklasse cheap price. Promising performance. Not aware of any warranty however. I don’t think it will last long
What about wahl deluxe?
If you like those legends you really need to get your hands on the original magic clips.
ThomasFit253 I’ve been looking at them a lot lately. They even put a stronger motor in them now
After watching a lot of reviews on UA-cam I was settling for the Wahl Hero but I heard from that it burns out faster. Now I am having the dilemma of choosing between the hero and the legend. I will like to know which one gives a closer shave between the Hero and the legend and which one lasts longer.
Which did you get, I'm thinking of getting the legends?
@@quatie I got the Hero and it is a good clipper
Where can i get the wahl 5 star legend for 55?????
Can somebody tell me the name of the negative song running on background?
I wanna know too
What do you think about the 100th anniversary edition Wahl clipper?
Scott Benson solid tool but I swapped my blades and blade slide with the legends
hahaha. i pushed the like button from 999 to 1k 😂😂😂
Where we can orde wahl clipper 300 with wire.....i need wite coulor
How about wahl elite pro 7960 ?
My legends overheat lately... any tips?
I have three legend I love I have a magic cordless blade so you recommend put the smoother to the blade with the wedge blade only the cutting blade?
Juan Manuel I switched my 1919 blade and blade slide with the legends. Magic clips have a great blade setup too. You don’t have to switch those out but feel free and experiment
Reggie, two questions. Do you zero gap your clippers, specifically your Legends?
And number 2, why do the Seniors cost more than the Legend?
Yes I do. I love having @scissors_clinic zero gapping and tuning my clippers. The legend isn't the flagship model. The senior is the standard. But the legend is the best in my opinion. More bang for the buck
Yo I tried calling via Facebook a min ago but bro them legends are amazing! Great video bro
joey wiggins wassup bro! Thanks a lot
And The Number 0 (zero) goes to! Drum roll please! Give it up for "Edward Scissorhands" Yeah Yeah Yeah!
Bro can you do a review of the legend and hero combo clipper set
Norman Freeman I’m not big fan of the hero. It’s ok. The cord is too short for my liking
you titled this correctly so can't complain, but video isn't of much use without any type of breakdown by category and ratings etc. I am interested in the Legend now, but hard to quantify "amazing" in any way lol. I did enjoy watching though
I did add another like to the count btw :
Im using panasonic clipper rechargeble hm wahl i wish i have one thing clipper
Put that crunch blade from the cordless magic clip on the cordless senior and you have a marriage made in heaven
Please review wahl classic pro
Is the magic clip cordless the same as the magic clip corded
The same blades but different motors
Everyone is sleep on the wahl vintage that might be the best clipper I own.
Hey yo thanks man!
I just wish the Legend housing was more solid & won't break /crack
Eli The Barber cape coral the originals used a foil strip that would crack and cut your thumbs lol. I took it completely off
@@ReggieWinston you know what I did I place the wedge blade Legend on the cordless magic clip and it works very good you can also install it into the cordless Andis Envy
@@34789199 NICE!
Iam a barber i need one give one for my part time barber thank u very much
If i was wahl I would make the legend cordless game changer 👌✔️👌 but I did think about taking that bracket and blade to see if it fit the wahl cordless magic clip hmmmm
Victor Maldonado I said the same thing! If you pull that off let me know

Relax
Please stay awesome! ok thanks
Thanks bro
Top... show... tambem tenho uma legend que é show... manda um salve para Brasilian.
you have a great days
What is the idea about your balding clipper.......?
they are great for preserving your trimmers. However, if you have a detachable clipper consider purchasing a outliner blade from Andis
@@ReggieWinston Thank you very much for your reply. The purpose of buying my balding clipper was because I have to do more clean shave and equal to hair cutting na. I use this bulding clipper personal at my home.
Can you use number 2 up on legend??
Fazel Razai yes a #2 guard can be used
You should be in witness protection for those choices. Jk jk
What you think about the Super taper bro? Great piece of video!
Wheres the wahl color pro
What about the combo set with the hero trimmers included
Samuel Jackson not a fan of the hero but it’s a solid offer if you’re in need of liners too. They trim very well but the cord is short
When you mean surgical blade do you mean flat blade???
Name of the background music ?
Cordless is dumb. Too loud. Not as powerful and reliable
Would a ceramic blade work with the legend ! Peace
chucky chucky I’m not sure. I’ve never tried it
Ever try the Wahl ultimate pro? I’m curious about it
video video video video video
Wahl taper 2000 anyone?
Great video! Next time use a good mic and you could be legend
Nyeah ehhhhhhhhh
Is this the “5-Guys, dayum dayum DAYUM!” guy????
Flowerdoodle2 lol tough crowd
