5 Tips For Cleaning Hair Clippers At Home

Hair Clippers have become an important haircare essential for men because of how easy they are to use. With an electric hair clipper, you can easily do minor trimming, fading, and blending of your hair at home, without having to visit a barber for every little hair detail.


Being an electric tool, hair clippers need to be maintained to keep their sharpness and accuracy. If you don’t do that, they will become dull with time and could end up hurting your skin.

 

So, you need to properly clean and oil the blades of the clipper at least once or twice a month. If you are a professional barber, then you’d need to do it more often.


Cleaning a hair trimmer is not as complicated as it sounds. In fact, most hair clippers come with a user’s manual that you can follow to clean them. Here are a few tips for you if you own a hair clipper and looking for the best way to clean it at home.

 

✔️ Remove The Hair Bits On Your Clipper With A Brush


First, you’d need to unplug the hair clipper from the electrical outlet. Make sure that it is turned off if it is battery operated. After that, take a simple brush and clean off the air that is stuck between the blades of the clipper. There are always little pieces of hair that get stuck in the blade when doing a clean shave with a trimmer, you’d need to take all these hairs out.

 

✔️ Take Apart The Clipper


The next step is, to disassemble the hair clipper. You’d need to take it apart and separate all its separable pieces. If you don’t know how to go about it, then just go through the user manual provided with the hair clipper. Separate the shaving head, the comb attachment as well as the foil of the clipper.

✔️ Clean The Trimmer And Other Accessories Of Clipper With Some Disinfectant


This is the most important step. You need to thoroughly clean the hair clipper with some sort of disinfectant. The clipper has to come into contact with your skin and scalp. There are infections like bacteria on your skin that could cause serious skin problems to you or the people who use that trimmer aside from you.


You’d need to use a tested, verified and recommended Hair Clipper Spray for disinfecting the hair clippers. We recommend going for the Fast & Furious 3 in 1 Spray for cleaning, cooling and lubricating your hair clipper blades. You’d just need to apply 1-2 to sprays and your clipper blade would be as good as new.

 

✔️ Make Sure To Clean The Comb As Well


Most people forget to clean the comb attachment that comes with the clipper. It also needs to be cleaned and disinfected. You can use the above-mentioned Barber Clipper Spray to do the cleaning job. You can also do with simple soapy water but that won’t do the best job.

 

✔️ Apply The Recommended Oil In The Blades


Once you have disinfected the hair clipper, it is time to prepare it for the next shave. You’d need to apply some sort of oil to the blades for making it run smoother on your skin. Oiling the blades would decrease your chances of getting your face nicked while trimming.


This is all there is. In fact, it can’t get any simple. So, make sure you clean and disinfect your hair clipper on a consistent basis to ensure your skin health and that of the people around you.
