A Salon Owner’s Win: XSTRIM XS PRIME Cuts Replacement Costs by 60% for Javier’s Chain

Javier manages three barbershops across the city, and tool replacement was a constant headache. “We’d go through 2-3 clippers per station yearly—motors burned out, blades dulled fast, and batteries died mid-shift,” he explains. The cost added up: $500+ annually per shop in replacements.

After switching to the XSTRIM XS PRIME, Javier saw immediate results. The outer rotor motor’s heat-dissipating design and 3000+ hour lifespan meant clippers lasted 2-3x longer. “In 18 months, we’ve replaced only 2 clippers across all locations—down from 15 in the same period before,” he notes.

The durable DLC-coated blades also held their sharpness longer, reducing the need for frequent replacements. “We used to buy 10 blade sets monthly; now it’s 3,” Javier says. Combined with the 150-minute battery life (no more mid-appointment charges), the XS PRIME cut operational costs by 60%—funds he’s reinvested in training and client perks.
