Wahl Helps Ease the Pain of Holiday Shopping

Holiday products lineup supports new study on what people want

STERLING, Ill., Nov. 23, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Wahl, a grooming products leader, is doing its part to help holiday shoppers reverse a trend of unwanted and unneeded gifts this year.  Unnecessary gifts accounted for almost 50 percent of purchases last year. The company's holiday lineup includes new and powerful therapeutic massagers and grooming tools for the practical, budget-friendly demands of gift givers while also fitting what new research says those on the receiving end want this year.

Practically speaking, money talks and family matters.

Those expecting gifts this holiday season have two things in mind--their futures and families. According to a national consumer study commissioned by Wahl in November, 35 percent of people wish for gifts to help them save money this holiday season. Furthermore, nearly a third of those receiving gifts would most appreciate one the entire family can use.
To support this trend, Wahl's holiday line-up includes family gifts that save money with every use. The new Lithium Ion Clipper, the most advanced home haircutting system on the market,  features superior power and run time plus a cordless option for anywhere use. For dog lovers, the new Pro Series Pet Clipper makes cutting pet care costs more convenient with a cordless and contoured design. 
Fit in. Lifestyle Trend Expert and TV Personality Laura Dellutri states, "With more people concerned about their health these days, gifts that promote healthy and active living should do well this year." Given the choice of one gift, one in five people would agree. This particularly appeals to boomer generation and 30-somethings, according to Wahl's holiday study. For the active people on the list, Wahl's holiday lineup features a new line of pain management tools. The Deep-Tissue Percussion Massager, in particular, alleviates muscle pain, even deep down, thanks to a powerful motor and variable intensity control. Four custom attachments allow for all-around or targeted pain relief. Look good. Feel good. "Given the times, most people will appreciate a gift that helps them look and feel good," said Dellutri.  This particularly appeals to 20-somethings according to Wahl's holiday study. In fact, both men and women 18 to 29 rank appearance over health as far as gifts they would most appreciate--although looking good was secondary to money and family. To help gift givers and receivers look and feel good this year, Wahl has expanded its line of Lithium Ion grooming tools. The Lithium Ion Trimmer, the most advanced on the market, helps guys keep facial hair in check via precision blade technology plus more power, longer run times and quick-charge capabilities. For relief, the new Heat Therapy Massager combines power and heat plus variable intensity control to create a truly customized massage.Wahl products are available at retailers nationwide.
