Review: These hair clippers are very easy to cut your own hair with I tried them for the1st time today; the rotating head really makes the difference. I usually get a 1.5 grade at the barbershop but with these settings I had to use a number 3 so maybe you just have to double the setting number of grade you take. I used 2 mirrors to cut my hair, that was easy enough but an extra 1 or 2 would have made things easier. The 1st time was easier than I thought but now I'm used to it the next time will be straightforward. It was a lot easier than I thought and I got just as good a job as going to the barbers, this will save me a fortune not having to go to the barbers now. I am really delighted with the product. Great for single people and worth the money.
