Wahl has announced it is accepting applications to its Select Barber program.
Geared to attract top barbering talent, last year's participant Corina Reyes (@corina_ladybarber) received widespread attention and was eventually promoted to the elite Wahl Education and Artistic Team (W.E.A.T.).
To commemorate Wahl Clipper's centennial anniversary, the company released the 100 Year Clipper. The item features metal housing and a taper lever, an advanced rotary motor, a high-quality lithium-ion battery with 70 minutes of runtime, cord or cordless capabilities and a beautiful, vintage look. “The 100 Year Clipper represents Wahl from 1919 to present. There is so much feeling evoked from the 100 Year Clipper: pride, joy dedication and longevity,” says Tracy Vock, senior product manager for Wahl.

Building on the success of its Wahl Professional Ambassador Initiative, Wahl Clipper Corporation has announced the new Wahl Select Barbers program, which seeks to reward members of the Wahl Professional Ambassador program for brand loyalty, product expertise, social media presence and a desire to educate other stylists. Since inventing the first practical electric hair clipper in 1919, Wahl Clipper Corporation has been a leader in the professional and home grooming category.
One of Wahl's most popular clippers is now available in a cordless style! The Wahl Cordless Designer is fit for barbers and salon professionals—equipped with a lithium-ion battery-powered rotary motor that can run for over 90 minutes, and an ergonomic, lightweight design (10.2 ounces) that fits snuggly in the hand. The cord/cordless feature allows barbers to roam free while trimming wet or dry hair.

Wahl's Beret trimmer, the latest offering from Wahl Professional, was unveiled at Premiere Orlando earlier this month. To make styling convenient for barbers and stylists, the trimmer can be used with the cord or cordless (with a two-hour run time). Lightweight and designed with ergonomics in mind, the Beret includes an automatic charging stand to recharge its lithium-ion battery, a recharging transformer, four trimming guides, oil, a cleaning brush, a styling comb and more. Its rich copper color and sleek design make it eye-catching.
