This shaver is made with black and silver plastic. It’s tapered in toward the middle, so you can grip it more easily in your hand. It has some fine lines as part of the front of its design. The entire shaver also curves backwards, which not only better enables it to be held in the hands but also places the cutter at the top of the shaver at the perfect angle for trimming hair.

The Philips Norelco HC7452/41 7100 Hair Clipper is made with DualCut technology so that its blades cut twice as faster as other brands. The cutting element has been doubly sharpened. This enables it to reduce friction while trimming.

Men can also use this hair trimmer for other parts of their body too, to keep hair neat and tidy, or to stay cool in the summer.

There is one plastic comb attachment which expands the usefulness of this shaver. You only need the one, as this has twenty-three different length settings. The settings start at 1/64th of an inch and go all the way up to 7/8th in length. The combs will move up or down depending on which length you turn the dial to. The dial turns left or right. There is less hassle when you only have to deal with one comb, and fewer chances of losing one in the drawer. The comb locks into position so you won’t have to worry about it coming loose when you’re shaving. If you don’t want to use it with the comb, the trimmer will shave down to .5 mm or 1/32nd of an inch.

The on/off button is located on the bottom three quarters of the clipper. Under that is the Turbo logo. This clipper is rechargeable, and runs on a lithium-ion battery. It takes a one hour charge which will give you up to two hours of shaving time. This is quite impressive, as often hair clippers only have a forty-five minute to one hour charge. This also makes them perfect for taking on an overseas trip where the outlets and the plugs differ.
