@@soevasive one can dream. Haha! 🤣 💈

@@BobaDavis more people use the cordless Magic Clip than the cordless Senior. I agree the Senior is better, but this video is about how bad the Magic Clip is even though people keep buying it.

@@FutureBarber Where are you getting that information from? If any barber cuts thicker hair, they're probably using anything but a Magic Clip. Maybe, if the shop provides clippers but even then, that's just a budget move, in which case, that isn't going to change.

@@simonwestra9532 I haven’t tried it personally but it looks okay! I didn’t like the original Babyliss FX clippers, but I think they made improvements. I’d still rather use a JRL or a Machete/Rebel 💈

@@MB-vk8cv I agree! 💈

@@everydaybarberlondon never heard of them! I’ll have to check them out. 💈

True, but if we are going to do it anyway, why use a tool that isn’t as good? Seems pretty insane to me. I could use a crappy Conair clipper from Walmart and do a good fade, but I choose not to punish myself. 🤷‍♂️

It is my personal opinion that the clipper I mentioned in the video is better and cheaper than a Wahl Magic Clip, based on using them. That clipper isn’t even available anymore which is unfortunate. The Stylecraft Rebel is the same and still a better option, but I think the price is way too high, which is another reason I made the video. I am nobody’s rival. I am making videos to show people good value. Not everything has to be dramatic lol.

Soon! Thanks for watching! 😀

I used Wahl for years, but the reality is some of these new clipper companies are making better machines. I own like 6 cordless Wahl Seniors, but they sit in storage because they can’t keep up.

⁠@@FutureBarbercan I have one? lol I want to start cutting my own hair, I just need a clipper.

Well this video is about how the Machete was a better and more affordable option than the Magic Clip (even the new one tbh) but unfortunately it has been discontinued anyway. If someone comes out with another super good clipper for a great price I’ll make a video about that. 👌

Hi there! Unfortunately it has been discontinued! I still use mine every day and picked up a couple spares while I could. If another company ever makes one as good as that for a decent price I will definitely make a video on it. Until then, the Stylecraft Rebel is the same machine, it’s just a little more money. If you don’t mind paying for it, I would recommend getting it!

The JRL Onyx is very good. I use one every day on my station. My two mains are the JRL Onyx and the TPOB Machete. 👌

Thanks for watching! So bad news.. it seems the Machete is no more. Luckily I stocked up for myself! I am going to try to test some more and find an affordable professional grade trimmer that people can reasonably afford for home use and make a video sometime soon. Stay tuned! 💈

@@FutureBarber: Hey, doing a review of good clippers for home use would be amazing. I'm curious about which clippers have power for regular clips, are forgiving for those of us who are not pros, and maybe an idea of what's best at different price ranges. Thanks again!

Hey, thanks for the kind words! Yes, unfortunately the Machete seems to not be available anymore. I’m lucky I stocked up and bought a few! The Magic Clip wouldn’t be a horrible clipper for home use, but I wouldn’t call it affordable at all. If you were gonna spend that amount I’d recommend the cordless senior over that. As far as other TPOB clippers, I can’t speak to their quality. I got a Troll and I didn’t like it at all, but I think he has one that is similar to the magic clip in power and performance. I think it’s the Slime but don’t quote me on that. Those are very inexpensive on Amazon, but again I haven’t used one so I can’t totally vouch for it. I think the reality is that most professional clippers are expensive for a reason. Since I don’t really buy anything but what I think might be good, I’m not sure I can give you a good recommendation at this time. The Machete was totally the answer to that question before, which is one of the reasons I made the video, but I will have to keep my eye out for the next great deal! The TPOB Play shows a lot of promise to be one of the best clippers yet, but if I recommend that company too much everybody thinks I’m doing paid content for them lol. I won’t be doing a TPOB tool review for quite a while after all the cheesy backlash in the comments lol. If you can get a deal on a Magic Clip or Cordless Senior I say go for it, but I would never pay retail price for those. Sorry if this doesn’t help much! I appreciate you watching. 💈

Having an affiliate link to earn money based on my effort to make a video that happens to have a product I like in it is different than being paid to make it. I made this video before I had the link, which is why it’s not in the video. If you think $36 of affiliate link money in a few months is worth the 3 days I spent editing this video you are sadly mistaken lol. Secondly, I like Wahl clippers too. I have many Wahl clippers but only keep the good ones. The cordless Magic Clip is overrated and underpowered, that’s what this video is about. I’ve done more haircuts with Wahl clippers than you probably ever will. This video is an opinion, and is meant to inform people of a better option. The Machete isn’t even an original TPOB designed clipper, it just happens to be the least expensive version of a clipper I believe is way better than the Magic Clip for the money. Believe it or not, not everyone is trying to swindle you. Relax.

Or just stop buying Magic Clips altogether because they are trash lol

@@FutureBarber nah amma still buy it 🤣😭

Im thinking of buying Billpro Bl800 for bulking.Its a replica of JRLtrimmer.Seems nice enough from the videos.Its not for detailing but got the cordless detailer for that

Wouldn’t be a horrible backup! 🤙💈

Just ordered mine how do you like them

If you think I’d have to be sponsored by TPOB to say the Magic Clip is garbage, I cannot help you. Showing people a good clipper at a good price, not all TPOB stuff is good.

Even if it’s true that it won’t last as long, I’d rather use a better performing tool and buy it more often. Wahl and Andis definitely have better build quality for sure, but I haven’t had one of these cheap ones go bad on me in a short enough time that it wasn’t worth the price. Also, Wahl and Andis have been around for so long because there weren’t any other clippers worth buying. Times have changed, it’s time for those companies to change too.

En Argentina no nos podemos dar el gusto de comprar maquinas tan cara q duran poco

Nice! Definitely worth trying out new things. I haven’t tried the Slime 2 yet. Thanks for watching! 💈

Thanks a lot! Things have been busy lately, but there should be a couple more videos on the way shortly. I appreciate you watching and the kind words. 🤙💈

Haven’t tried it! I definitely want to try the new Stylecraft Instinct X, but not sure when it will be available in my suppliers. 🤙

JRL and TPOB Machete are my current two favourites. 🤙

Imma try the machete.... but the instinct reminds me of the original master once the blade is swapped.... im all magnetic again... lol

If it’s for home use and you can get it for that price you should definitely do it! It’s a great clipper for home use, just bad for professional use compared to many others. 🤙

You’re not the only one! Mine is pretty loud too, but still works so well that it’s a shame about the noise. He’s released a newer version already, but I haven’t heard any reviews yet and I haven’t bought one. I’d be curious too. Still using this one every day though, despite the noise, as I still think it’s the best I’ve used so far.

You have to oil the trimmer regularly in between the blade on top of the blade to make it quiet. Cause remember is metal rubbing on metal try it see the difference..

excellent video tho excited to see what else you provide the industry!

Thanks man, I appreciate it! Yeah the build quality is always good on the professional Wahl stuff. The Instinct has a lot of hype but they have notoriously bad motors. I wouldn’t recommend anyone get one until they fix the motor issues.

Looking forward to hearing about it! 🤙💈

Not hold them really but how you rock it out. I think uall know what I mean can't explain it

Not sure what that means, but thanks for watching! 💈

For a trimmer? Definitely these. JRL’s trimmer is really good for kids and elderly clients because it’s quiet but it doesn’t do nice crispy lines like this one. 💈

The Gold Magic Clip was upgraded to a 6500rpm motor, while the Machete advertises 7200rpm. Trust me, it still beats the new one. Not to mention the price is wayyy lower. In case you disagree, I just googled them both to be sure. If it was better I would have included it in the video. Trust me, I am not here to promote one brand over another, just value for viewers. Machete still wins.

@@FutureBarber will the wahl premium guards fit on the machete tho?

@@thedanwriter1 Yes, I use the Wahl premium guards on my Machete every day. 🤙💈

this tpob are shit. cheap stuff that break very fast. stop lying@@FutureBarber

Yes I would recommend the TPOB Machete from the video! Go to thepissedoffbarber.com and use code FUTUREBARBER at checkout for a discount. If you wanna try something with a different shape I would recommend the JRL 2020C. I don’t have a code for that one yet and it costs more but they are both great. They’re the two I currently run at my station. 🤙

Not an ad at all, Magic Clips suck, and I’m letting people know that if they want an alternative that’s better and cheaper, they should get a Machete. If a company comes out with a better option, I would recommend that. In fact, I would personally make some improvements to make it even better but I don’t have my own clipper company. If I include an affiliate link for any company and get a kickback for making a sale that’s me being paid for my effort leading to a sale. For the record I’ve made $9 from my affiliate link to date and I promise you that’s not worth the time I put into this video. The entire reason I started this channel is because a lot of the ones I used to watch are all sponsored now and I don’t trust them. Believe me, this channel will never be bought. Affiliate links are absolutely nothing like sponsored ads. lol

Thanks for watching! They don’t sell the Goblin anymore because the vector motor used in that style of clipper is notoriously faulty. I think he plans on having it again one day once the problems are worked out. A lot of people are into that clipper but I’ve yet to use it. The Stylecraft Instinct (same clipper) is way overpriced where I live so it will probably be a while before I get my hands on one. I’d definitely rather pay TPOB prices for it, especially if it’s just to make a CZcams video on it. 🤙💈

Not sure exactly what the total costs is when you order in Europe but in North America it ends up costing significantly less, especially when you use a discount code. If you can get the gamma boosted for less where you are it’s probably worth it to get that instead. 🤙

Did you order TPOB?

@@florintirla6193 yeah they are okay for like back ups, they feel extremely cheap. But you can still do what you gotta do. Def good for back ups. But honestly better grabbing the babyliss pro fx870, used my boys pair other day for a haircut and they are super smooth and nice, beats the magic clip.

Thanks a lot! I’ve been meant to try the Wez Tech. Hopefully I’ll get one soon. Thanks for watching! 💈

Yeah there’s definitely been tools that are the same with his branding, like the Goblin(Instinct), but a few of the newer ones he actually upgraded the internals and blades to make them better. At the end of the day the quality is either the same or better and the prices are lower, which is the point of the video. I’ve had customer service issues with all the brands, including TPOB, it’s kind of just luck of the draw. Also, you can’t order clippers fully customized with packaging from factories without first building a relationship and putting down a big deposit, that’s just the way it works. You gotta remember this is just a regular guy building a clipper company and not one of the big brands, and there’s gonna be some hiccups. He rage blocked me a couple years ago for the same reason, but I don’t take it personally. 😂 Thanks for watching man! 🤙

@@FutureBarbershitty customer service is okay bc he did it to me as well 😂. Wow what a fuckin shill this channel is.

You can definitely zero gap the Troll, I’ve done it to mine. Honestly the Machete is better though. I’m not a fan of the Troll.
