WAHL VAPOR REVIEW|2024

Introduction

Yo, what's up, YouTube! Today, we're diving into a quick review of the latest offering from Wahl - the Wahl Vapor Clipper. As an avid fan of Wahl, which I personally consider the original brand for barbers, I'm excited to share my thoughts on this new product. My go-to has always been the Magic Clip, which I prefer over the Seniors due to its lightweight feel and durability. For me, the differences between the two are minimal, with the Magic Clip offering a more manageable weight.

Unboxing the Wahl Vapor

Let’s get straight into it! The Wahl Vapor comes in a sleek, simple box that features a clear image of the clipper along with detailed specifications on the sides. Inside, you’ll find a variety of guards and important details about its performance—specifically, its two and a half hour runtime with just a 60-minute charge.

While the Wahl Vapor's charging time is similar to that of the JRL clippers, JRL has the edge with a four-hour run time. However, if you're like me and use multiple clippers throughout the day, you can manage it pretty well.

Now, let's take a closer look at the clipper itself. Right out of the box, the Wahl Vapor feels good in your hands, sporting a light, ergonomic design—perfect for all-day use. It also features a new F32 Fade Out blade, which I haven't used before, so I’m curious about its performance compared to the Masters.

Wahl has included their classic charger along with some premium guards, including the half guard, which I often find essential for my cuts.

Performance Review

I’ll put the Wahl Vapor to the test by cutting one of my clients, giving my impressions based on three categories: bulk removal, fading ability, and durability.

Bulk Removal: This clipper breezed through coarse hair without any pulling, earning an 8 out of 10.
Fading Ability: When working with straight hair, it blended well, despite a slight moment of struggle. Overall, I’d rate the fading performance a solid 9 out of 10.
Durability and Ease of Use: The lightweight design makes it easy to maneuver, ensuring smooth cuts without tiring the wrist. For durability, I’d give this clipper a perfect score of 10.

Overall, I’m quite impressed with the Wahl Vapor and can confidently say it's a valuable addition to my collection.
