Balding Blade Clippers

The 5-Star Vapor Features the Industry's First Adjustable Balding Blade

Grooming and styling brand Wahl Professional launched the 5-Star Vapor with the New F32 Fadeout Blade—the industry's first adjustable balding blade. The innovative F32 Fadeout Blade sets itself apart with deeper, finer and 50% more ball-pointed teeth that are six grams lighter than Wahl Pro's standard blade.

Created for barbers who need to achieve perfect bald fades and quickly yet comfortably maneuver around the scalp without causing nicks or scrapes, the design allows for sharper precision and greater control. And for the closest cut, the F32 Fadeout Blade can be adjusted for zero gap.

The Vapor joins Wahl's 5-Star line of products, which includes two of the highest-selling clippers globally, the 5-Star Magic Clip and the 5-Star Senior.
