Fantastic

By Ann (argos.co.uk) Read the full review

These clippers were recommended by a friend because I wanted to cut down on trips to the barbers/hairdressers due to lack of time. These were a fantastic purchase. Highly recommended. These are so easy to use. Great buy.

Philips QC5170 DIY Hair Clippers review

By Stuart Miles (pocket-lint.com)

Philips believe they has solved the age old problem of shaving your own hair with the creation the DIY hair clippers. The trick, it says, is that the head rotates through 180 degrees so you can literarily cut your hair as if you were combing it. Sound...
