Remington HC4250 Shortcut Pro Demo: Zero Guard Buzz Cut, Receding Hairline 

I love the old videos they’re so nostalgic for some reason

I have been buzz cutting my head for 30 years. I have the same shaver as in the video and I use it without any guard. It is by far the best shaver I have ever had, I have been using it once a week for the last 2 years and I have never once cut my head. It is brilliant!

I purchased this last week and have been too scared to use it lest I F-up. Your video has given me the confidence to try it early next week (when I can get a professional haircut if I mess up). I HATE spending over $1000/yr on a weekly haircut. The money spent and the time spent pisses me off. Thanks for sharing and giving me the courage to try it.

Nice haircut! I love the feeling of clippers running over my scalp :) I always feel refreshed after a haircut :)

Since i started watching your videos last month.. i decided ti shave my hair off... im not going bald.. i was just so self conscious that my hair defined who I was.. and by shaving my hair off.. I learned so much about myself and who I am.. so thank you :)

I bought one of these a while ago because I wanted something similar to your scc-100 which had been discontinued. Remington really is a great brand. I’ve never been disappointed in any of their products.

Your videos make me so happy. I'm struggling with self-confidence as I lose my hair and I'm terrified to buzz it off because it seems like such a commitment, but to see how happy it makes you and how great you look with a buzzcut gives me hope that I may be able to rock the chrome-dome with confidence. Thanks!

Agreed, it's the best clipper out there. I've had 3 and with the first one, when the battery died, I was able to use it with the mains lead for ages, till the motor finally packed in. The other 2 haven't been quite so reliable and the present one "sounds" as if it's on its last legs. But, it's a unique product, even though I'm tempted to by an "all in 1" beard/hair trimmer!

I like your enthusiasm. I have ordered this item and used it once so far. I really liked its performance. I'm about to use it again. Don't want to go zero guard all the time. So, I hope to learn how to use it for slightly more complex cuts or trims. Just looking for some pointers. Thanks for your video.

just bought mine using the link and a great discount! thanks so much for the review!

Oustanding demo, will be buying these clippers. I like how the clippers are angled for easy zero guard buzz cuts. Lol the eyebrow warning

Good Job! I have both versions too and what I really am going to miss with the older 100 design is the wheel adjustment saving the hassle of all those 12(?) clips. At 64YO I don't know if I can carry the near-bald look. But then again - at 64 YO - who cares what I look like!?

You should make a comparison of the remington hc4250 vs the philips qc5580

This is well-demonstrated. The zero style really cannot be bettered on the ideal-shaped head, which certainly is the case in this instance.

This is what I use and it is truly the fastest way to buzz your head

I bought this device last week and returned it before seeing your video. It was pulling my hair too much. But that was when my hair was at about a #3. So perhaps if I buzz my head with other clippers with a #1 guard and then use this as a zero guard, I might have the same results as you. I hate to buy it again just to test this theory.

Try putting a comb on it and see what size makes more sense! You will find out very quickly!

If you like the beard at the length it is at the end if the week, how come do you dont just fine a daurd that suits you instead of shaving?

Purchased my first pair of clippers today mate, my hair is looking way too thin on top. Just need to get up the courage to shave it off now!

Wow. Those are some fat passes it's taking off. Interesting! Thanks for the great shots so we could really see it in action ... without a guard!

Just a note to you: It doesn't come fully charged. When the LED blinks, it's charging - When it's solid, it's fully charged. Other than that, nice video :) just bought the thing myself.

Great video. Well done!

Does it hurt without the comb? Blade seems pretty sharp

How often should you cut your hair to keep it at a 2 guard?

I have HCT7565RLIC Even Cut by Conair. How would you compare the Conair one and yours? Yours looks to be earlier to use but free hand which I am not confident.

Nick you were saying "Oh man this is great, I love this" after 5 seconds lol.

It comes with a zero guard instead of using it without a guard at all. Less risk of catching the skin.

Awesome video brother. I was looking at this product and wanted to see it in action and after watching you I'm sold. Cheers!

LOOKS GOOD!

Is it still working good?

I have one but I find it just isn’t powerful enough, maybe I got a duff one I dunno. It doesn’t give a good cut especially using guards, so if I’m using a number 2 it will leave a lot of hairs at random despite going over and over. I just think all these battery ones are ok for no guard but anything else they just don’t seem to cope.

Just went and bought this product. They should sponsor you. Thanks.

I heard bad reviews about da battery on this

I buy it! Its great!👍🏻

Thnx for the demo.

Great video good (& funny) advice thanks

The older model cuts closer than the newer model, that zero guard you're speaking of is actually more headspace than the older model allows which is really annoying when you're attempting to achieve a close cut. I didn't get the blue colored pro version, I got the red and black version so maybe I'm mistaken about the headspace achievable (zero guard) on this blue version you're showing. If it actually cuts to zero, I'd buy one. The main improvement from the old model is just power, the new one is lithium. I don't think you can use any of these in the shower, but why would you want to, water causes problems. I know from experience that using whale oil on the blades or a better machine oil saves your motor along with cleaning after every use. The old model's motor if not cleaned and oiled would die/degrade along with the power supply if not taken care of. The curved blade market is pretty slim, there's not a lot of competition, I wish there was. It would be nice to get a German engineered lithium battery trimmer that doesn't get clogged up with hair, is powerful, and precise. Half ass razors, shavers, and other grooming equipment are annoying as fk and don't serve any purpose other than to piss you off. I'm willing to spend the extra dollars to get a superior item that won't turn to crap after 6 months. One thing I noticed about the newer short cut model is that there are plastic areas that invite shave stubble to get in and underneath, located near the blade assembly, I can tell eventually these plastic areas will fracture to assist the break down of the unit. I would rather pay 50 bucks more for an aluminum frame that will last than something that will likely break. It's just too bad that in this modern age, this is all our engineers can come up with. If anyone has found a better curved blade system that doesn't suck with annoying fragile parts, please list it here.

I sure wish you could use it on my hair, the 1/16 inch on top and, the back and sides without a guard.

i had the same trimmer it was on sale at a target store ,best purchase ever made .use to cut my hair at least once a week never had a problem with it ran like a beast ,till my gf decided to use it on my dogs hair and almost at the end of the haircut my favorite trimmers died, i went to every store never found em again . and even online can t find em

does this have a .5 guard like on a wahl?

STRONG look for you dude. A-male all the way.

What's the difference between this and the HC4300?

I just bought this thing on Amazon based on your review, and I used your link, so I hope you get a little money from your review. That been said, it better be all that you state it is, or I will hunt you down and use it on your nether regions. I kid... I bought the one blade thinking it would do the job, but what little I have of my hair left is so thick, it sucks butt.

What is the lowest it will go? I want 00000 or 0000 in hair stylist lingo.

Had this one too. Battery gave out after 6 months. Just ordered another one, hoping I was just unwillingly mistreating the lithium battery. I’ll be using it either once a week or once every two weeks. Any advice on how often I should charge it? And would it be better to charge it after every use? My haircuts take about 10 to 15 minutes tops. Thank you!

When they have more i will buy one. I just checked they ran out. I use. My phillips. Trimmer or other ones. Then i use. My Gillette glide razor. To make it smooth bald head. Im going to shave my head with my micro touch solo. Trimmer. Or just try. Rogaine. Im losing it. Im 24. I should grow a beard with the bald head. Im not shaving my head im going to try a derma roller. Rogaine. Hair skin and nails vitamin. And my hair product. Thats helps not show. Bald spots. Its a dark hair gel its called softee hair gel that helps with thin hair i think its not bad idea. Try those 4 things and watch my hair grow

it looks like you already cut your right eyebrow a bit

Hmmm.. are these different than the Remington Quick Cut which is also very small and curved ? Ive just watched a few reviews and the reviewers called it the Remington QuickCut .... Looks the same but different colour ...

Nick and his new toy. Unfirtunately, you'll just get to look at for the next 'year' until you're done with your 'mane' event. Max

Chapo hair cut looks good.

Can you trim you body hair with this hair clipper ? the curve won’t effect on the performance

Do you think it's possible to fade with this?

Why you use it easily? When I use it to upslide on my head like you in video. It's stuck, it's pulling hair. Everything is very good but almost blade pull my hair.

Good tips shave first!

Congrats, you've made a cue-ball 😂

If your bald this is perfect , don’t think for regular cuts it would work as good

I noticed your loseing your hair. Sorry nick i just buzzed my hair last week my hair grows fast. I use a zero on the sides and back of my hair. I normally leave my hair longer on top. I change up my hair each month. Keep the beard. Its good on you my hair grows fast too. Ok Nicholas take care

This Remington works good but about 2 years in the battery will start to fail. There is no way to replace it without taking it apart and doing some MacGyver soldering which will be dangerous. It's unfortunate but looks like Remington did this on purpose so that you will go buy another one. Really sucks.

I'm going to put that thing down my pants.

Stop messing about and just cut your hair.

Dang you still have thick hair.. Grow that hair out and leave the buzz cuts to us baldys.

Brah. Do it from bottom up in full motion, you shave all your hair in 30 seconds, why do it in small 5 cm strokes all over the place? Makes no sense

If you are a man and never sheved your hair of that is a bit strange. Especially if you do not like your hair and take care of it a lot like many guys dont. I would say insted of a bad hair day go shave!

lmfao-needs to be held flat to the head-NOT blades down or you run risk of uneven cut and bald lines. You were doing it right the first few cuts until you questioned your technique. ALL clippers are held face/flat down. And do long cuts not quick passes.

Do you miss to do this? :-D

Dude why shave your head you know how many bald men would KILL to have your hair!
