Leo J. Wahl’s groundbreaking invention of the first electromagnetic motor led to the world’s first-ever electric hair trimmer. In 1919, he established the Wahl Clipper Corporation, forever changing the landscape of men’s styling and grooming. Today, from its humble beginnings with a single patent and a small factory in the US, Wahl has grown to seven manufacturing facilities across four continents, and is the preferred choice among professional and home stylists in 165 countries across the globe.
