STERLING, Ill. (April 21, 2022) – When it comes to grooming, African American men are looking for more — more precision, simplicity and comfort. And thanks men’s grooming leader Wahl, they’re getting it with the new Wahl Edge Pro Lithium-Ion+ Trimmer. The new tool features powerful lithium-ion technology, and a unique blade coating to address the specific grooming issues faced by African American men, including razor bumps and in-grown hairs.

“This new trimmer will help African American guys take their grooming routine to the next level,” said Steven Yde, division vice president for Wahl. “Not only does it provide the closest, and most comfortable, shave guys can get with a trimmer, but it will cut down on grooming time without sacrificing style.”   

Just a few highlights of the new Wahl Edge Pro Lithium-Ion+ Trimmer include:

• Diamond Coating – Wahl’s new proprietary process bonds diamond-hard carbon molecules directly to the trimmer’s precision ground stainless steel blades. This important step allows the blades to cut smoother and stay cooler, alleviating skin irritation.
• Super Close T-Blade – The trimmer’s blade has as a near-zero set back, which delivers a cut that’s four times closer than typical trimmer blades. What’s more, the extra wide T-blade comes with eight premium guide combs making this an all-in-one grooming tool for detailing, shaving and haircutting
• Lithium-Ion Power – Backed by advanced lithium-ion technology, the trimmer boasts a 6-hour runtime. And its powerful, heavy-duty rotary motor ensures no-snag cutting through all hair-types.
