Everyone's head is shaped slightly differently, and your hair follows these natural curves. This means that ordinary hair clippers with fixed combs have difficulty following the curves of your head, often resulting in an uneven and patchy shave. Featuring flexing 2D combs, Philips QC5530 gently follows the contours of your head for a smooth, even and comfortable hair cut. The flexible guide 2-D comb automatically follows every curve of your head and neck to achieve an even trim easily and comfortably.

Skin friendly blades and comb

The Philips QC5530 is designed to make the whole grooming experience is kind to your skin. That's why this clipper has been designed with rounded edges on the blades and combs. By avoiding sharp edges, the clipper reduces scratching the skin for a more comfortable experience, allowing you to use the clipper as often as you want, maintaining your style without irritating your skin.

    Usually I let my hair get quite long before going and getting a short cut at the local barbers (about £10 a time). As my hair on top is getting slightly thinner and more noticeable when my hair is longer I wanted to be able to keep it short regularly trimming it back.
    I used the "medium" comb on its longest setting to achieve the length I wanted. I were pleasantly surprised when the end result was a great even cut all over. Trimming loose hairs at the back of your head is hard but the rotating head and hand mirror makes it easier.

    The quality is great and Phillips seem to have put a lot of research into the development of this product to make it as easy as possible for the end user to operate.

    4 Stars because even though it is a great product, for the price I think it should have included a case/ bag of some sort for storage.

    I bought a pair of these clippers from another website because there was a four week wait for Amazon's £29.99 bargain pair and I needed them quickly. I had an old pair of Babyliss clippers that were getting increasingly hotter every time I used them and the grade one comb guide I used had begun to melt.

    I was always quite happy with my Babyliss clippers until I started to use these. They are nice and light without being too light and plasticy and glide over my head so smoothly that it takes half the time to cut my hair. The clippers come with three comb guides, a precision trimmer, a cleaning brush and a handheld mirror. The mirror has an elastic hand strap so you can use it with one hand and not worry about dropping it. There is no hairdresser's cape or carry case included with this item which is a slight negative but can be forgiven for the quality of the items you do get.

    I normally cut my hair down to grade one (3mm), and was worried when I bought these that they wouldn't cut as short as I like, but using the shortest of the comb guides (1-3mm) I got a perfect cut at 3mm. I even went a bit shorter to 2mm and will use this setting from now on - but beware - 1mm doesn't sound like a big difference but it's quite significant, especially, if like me you are blonde haired. I now look completely bald!

    The rotating head on the clippers is a great idea but does take some getting used to - persevere and you'll get there in the end!

    All in all, I would highly recommend this item and am so glad I bought them myself - any doubters should take the plunge and wouldn't regret it!

    By Alison
    Reading previous reviews I was looking forward to trying these out - being wary of pushing to hard and getting an uneven cut. The first problem you encounter is the fact that the cut hair just jams up the clippers and you have to dismantle it every 1 - 2 strokes just to clear the blade. This quickly becomes very annoying and ruins the flow of the cut. The main problem when using these however is the fact that it just doesn't cut the hair smoothly and consistently. After the first attempt it looked like someone had attacked my husband with a pair of shears! The hair was completely uneven and had tufts sticking up everywhere. I am experienced with using clippers so know that it was not just my technique thats at fault. I am relieved that we did not pay full price for these - they have gone straight in the bin! We will return to using Remington which have served us well over the years!
