Wahl Professional Premium Black Cutting Guides #3171-500 - 1/8 to 1 - Fits All Full Size Wahl Clippers (Excludes Detachable Blade Clippers) 8 Pack

If you have the guards that come with your Wahl clippers, donate them to your local beauty school. These are game changers! Fit like a glove. Smooth glide. Sturdy. The stand they come in convinced me immediately. Searching through a bag of guards just looks messy to clients and is frustrating. I do recommend getting the extra 1 1/2 & 1/2 guards. They’re sold separately. Absolutely worth it!!

Ugh. I love these clips for my pro series Wahl but they are a pain to cart around. The case that carries them doesn’t have a lid or securing mechanism so the clips fall out super easy. Every time I move them around I have to spend time sorting and placing them back in their proper spot. That said, the clips themselves work great. Offer a range of sizes not included with the base clippers. They are much sturdier than the standard plastic clips included with the Wahl. Overall I’d still recommend, but if you’re traveling with them prepare for them to fall out. I also wish they included one size smaller but if you have the originals you’ll be good.

Are solid

These Wahl cutting guides are worths every cent, day and night difference from the cheap ones you get with your clippers. 5 starts for quality! When in use they feel more secure and durable.

My wife cuts my hair and has been using the wahl color coded ones, which after awhile the secure clip broke on a few of them. We replaced them with these and not only do they secure better and very less likely to break they actually feel way better when she cuts my hair and theyre much more accurate when going up or down in sizes. Dont hesitate and buy these if you have a wahl shaver.

These are great guides for the Wahl clippers. I love how the carrier makes it easier to organize and keep track of the clippers. The only downside is the 1/2 guide (1/16) and the 1 1/2 guide (3/16) are not included or at least a space is not left for them, since a professional pair of Wahls will come with them.

Well worth the wait premium high quality I was kinda nervous because I seen other reviews saying no number 1 guard mine came with all the guards worth the price

These are so much better than the ones included with the clippers. Everyone mentioned the same but no one explained exactly why. Unlike others, I experienced a much easier time taking these in and out, much easier than the full plastic ones. The metal click gives you a premium feel. These guides are made of a much stronger plastic. Curiously, the plastic is slightly thinner, but once you get to play with them, youll see that they flex less, so you will be getting a much better haircut, with less mistakes. The big problem with the included guides is that they flex with a minimal change in pressure, producing worse results. No problem with these. The metal has nothing to do with the sturdiness as others mentioned, the metal is only for the looks and also to attach them to the clipper, but what makes these ones so much better is the way stronger plastic. I also like the design. At the very little top end of the guides these have a little curve pointing up that allows for better grip of your hair, especially if you are cutting long hair. Very happy with the purchase!

Works much better than the clips that came with my trimmer, they seem to be a much better made with the piece of metal in each clip for added strength to stop any flexing

Nice quality. Snaps onto my Whal trimmer without issues. Only minor gripe is that it didnt come with ear trimmers like some other sets do. But I got exactly what I ordered so I cant fault them.
