Wahl Professional, the leading and trusted brand in professional grooming and styling, has launched the industry's first adjustable balding blade — the F32 Fadeout Blade — with the 5-Star Vapor. Offering rapid precision and a powerful cut, the Vapor is designed for barbers to achieve picture perfect bald fades by comfortably transitioning from bald to fade around the scalp area.
The Vapor will be a part of Wahl’s 5-Star line of products, which includes the two of the highest selling clippers globally, the 5-Star Magic Clip and the 5-Star Senior. These tools and cordless counterparts have become the most trusted, dependable clippers on a barber’s station, and the addition of the Vapor will further solidify Wahl Pro as the global leader in barbering.
“The Vapor is the culmination of Wahl Pro’s world-class innovation and engineering. Vapor offers a unique solution to the tedious processes of cutting to scalp and blending bald fades,” says Lance Wahl, Global SVP of Sales & Marketing for Wahl Professional. “Aside from sharper precision and improved control through new designs, The Vapor’s revolutionary adjusting balding blade will simplify and create a more comfortable experience for those in the chair and behind it.”
The F32 Fadeout Blade has deeper, finer and 50% more ball-pointed teeth that are six grams lighter than Wahl Pro’s standard blade, so it can move quickly and smoothly over pores, preventing nicks and scrapes. The high-carbon steel blades with PVD chrome and black DLC coatings keep the blades cool, are ultra-strong, rust resistant and remain sharp up to four times longer compared to standard steel blades. For the closest cut, the F32 Fadeout Blade can be adjusted for zero gap.
In addition to the new blade, the Vapor has more power without the weight. Its high-speed brushless motor with Adaptive Speed Control provides consistent power of 8000 RPMs through all hair types and textures, while only weighing 275g, for a lighter hold. For more control, the Vapor has a rubberized no-slip grip material, and the new metal taper lever and housing are shaped to align with natural hand and finger placement for unmatched comfort.
The 5-Star Vapor is just one of Wahl Pro's most recent launches alongside the brand's new Make it With Wahl campaign, which aims to equip professionals with the tools to accomplish remarkable feats, shape culture, change lives and foster meaningful careers.
