Vanish

I have used a Series 9 for 10 years, purely for shaving my head. Recently I have realised how expensive they are to maintain and then replace when the head is blunt, I bought a third party head and it basically pulled my hair out, so I went on the hunt for a new shaver, after a quick look at the closest shave with an electric razor, I came across this. I have just received it, with a 2 day stubble on my head, straight out of the box it has given me not only a much closer shave, but in far fewer passes too. I was sceptical of a 0.05mm length claimed by Wahl, and imagined it to be a typo, but I can honestly say it is the closest shave I have ever had without using a razor. Graned it has some features the Series 9 has, the head doesn't tilt, there is no retractable clipper, but with results this impressive I don't need any of that. I cannot comment on the longevity, but seeing as it is intended to be used by working barbers on a daily basis, then I can't imagine it being sub par in that respect. The biggest question I have is, why hasn't Wahl rolled out this technology to consumer products, as they are on an absolute winner. If you've made it this far into my review, then buy it now.

Ive tried several lecky razors cheap crap and gone back too wet shaves. But getting a shave in a freezing bathroom is terrible.I decided to lash out and go for the Wahl vanish. Its brilliant I really recommend it, good smooth shave ,I should have done it yonks ago.

Excellent! Exactly what i needed. Gets a very close shave and good battery life.

Cuts better than, Braun Series 9. If you push too hard you can get a skin irritation. because it cuts that good as sometimes blades can touch your skin. Bought it and the wireless whal precision trimmer after my braun series 9 died because some moist got inside. i hope it will last. well at least the trimmer will

Incredible product. Didn't want to review straight away, to get a better look at it first. Got it after looking at multiple reviews on YouTube where got the impression that this was an upgrade of what I already had. It is. Love the battery since runs for months on a single charge! It is very robust by design, easy to clean and shaves very well. There might be upgrades to even better but might? This shaves like I want. Reviewed by people who use in barbers as in where they do high volume and want something that does the job. Again and again and again! Delighted with my purchase 👍

Loved it

Second one I’ve had to return 😡 first one came with broken blades , the second one came and it would not charge. I’m going to order it again and see if it’s 3rd time lucky. Really disappointed from wahl !!

Close shave but takes about 20 passes to remove a section of hair. Retuned as for the price I don’t think this is good enough.

Ragazzi è il top, acquistato per ripassare quasi ogni giorno la mia barba dalla ricrescita (non essendo un amante della barba) si comporta benissimo, lascia una pelle super liscia + può essere usato pure per i capelli, quindi top, super consigliato!

Muy buena

Den bästa rakapparat som jag haft i mitt långa liv! Ger en snygg och effektiv rakning på kort tid! Har provat många rakapparater under mer än 50 år - den här är oslagbar!

Crazy razor burn. Even without pushing or forcing things. Leaves a lot of thic beard hairs randomly scattered. You have to do the same area multiple times so the razor burn gets even worse. Maybe better for regular hair, not beard

Comfortable and most effective. This is my 2nd Wahl shaver. I use it for beard shaving only and I am a regular shaver. A little practice and it will give a clean shave more than Gillet 5 blade which I was using since decade. The only down side is under chin which requires a little more effort. You can ask Gemini or download from Google regarding tips and tricks of using Wahl professional 5 star shaver and get idea to use the shaver effectively. Regarding battery 5 days of 10 minutes use has consume one bar out of 3 which I think can last for 12 to 15 days on a single charge which is more than sufficient. During my search the other online stores showing higher prices but only Amazon made it to a reasonable price band. It is definitely an original product. Amazon is doing great. Definitely this is an investment with the price. But one should carefully use and maintain regularly as the the foils are thin.
