WAU HIGE PRO 6-in-1 Trimmer
An editorial profile of WAU’s HIGE PRO 6-in-1 trimmer, covering the six attachments it ships with, its stainless-steel blades and 7000 RPM figure, the IPX6 rating that allows wet use, and the battery and charging numbers WAU publishes.
At a glance
This is the most plainly specified product in the WAU range and the least dependent on claims. The six attachments are listed individually, so the "6-in-1" name can be checked rather than taken on trust, and the electrical figures - 1200 mAh, 200 minutes, 2 hours to charge, 5W - are all published. Two gaps stand out for a trimmer specifically. The four comb guards are the part that determines the haircut, and their lengths are never given in millimetres, so there is no way to tell from the listing whether the range suits you. And IPX6 is quoted as a headline without the detail that makes it usable: which parts may be rinsed, whether the head detaches, how the blades are cleaned. A South African price, availability and warranty position still need to be established.
- Useful for
- Readers comparing attachment counts, battery figures and water-resistance ratings across home trimmers.
- Not ideal for
- Anyone who needs specific cutting lengths, or a hands-on assessment of blade quality and comfort.

- Current image rights
- verified — checked 2026-09-08. Hero is the advertiser’s own packshot from the Awin datafeed we are approved on; gallery images are commissioned AI lifestyle scenes, disclosed as such. AI studio packshots and baked-text infographics were withheld. Recorded on the operator’s attestation of the programme creative terms; written advertiser confirmation of image reuse remains outstanding. This is the same basis the 7 September 2026 review withdrew these images over, and it has not yet changed.
- Hands-on testing
- not tested. Publisher confirmed 6 September 2026 that none of the listed products has been personally tested.
- Product identity
- verified — checked 2026-09-08. WAU Global official product page https://wauglobal.com/products/hige-pro-universal-6-in-1-trimmer read 2026-09-08; exact product-title match. JSON-LD Product schema on that page gives GTIN-13 4673728150294, SKU TRM-4 and variant 51157969830195. Imported from Awin WAU programme, advertiser 124878, datafeed 114261; publisher account 3062097. Programme approval recorded 2026-08-31 09:46 (approval email from no-reply@awin.com), merchant profile https://ui.awin.com/affiliate/3062097/merchant-profile/124878/overview.

The workbook’s "Website Functions / Features" field is truncated at 1200 characters, so the complete feature list, directions and any contraindications were read from the live product page rather than from the intake row.
- South African market
- verified — checked 2026-09-09. Checked against WAU Global's own published pages on 2026-09-09. DELIVERY: ships to most countries worldwide; South Africa appears in the site's country/region selector. International delivery quoted at 7-14 business days, after 1-2 business days' processing, via UPS, FedEx, DHL or USPS at WAU's discretion. Orders over USD 50 ship free; otherwise the charge is shown only at checkout. CURRENCY: the selector lists 'South Africa (USD $)' - WAU prices South African buyers in US dollars and does not offer rand. TAX AND DUTIES - WAU'S PAGES CONFLICT: the Shipping Policy states 'For the tax: WAU Global Will pay for the tax, we will not charge the tax fee from our customers', while the Terms of Service state 'posted prices do not include taxes, shipping, handling, customs or import charges' and that the customer 'will pay ... all applicable taxes'. Both cannot hold for an import into South Africa. Recorded as unresolved; the profile tells readers to expect to pay South African VAT, customs duty and courier clearance fees, which is the Terms position and the safe assumption. Written confirmation is being sought. RETURNS: 30 days from receipt, unused and undamaged, in original packaging with proof of purchase. The buyer must contact info@wauglobal.com first - 'items sent back to us without first requesting a return will not be accepted'. WAU says it will send a return shipping label if the return is accepted, but does not state whether that label is prepaid for international customers; returning a device from South Africa could be costly, so this is recorded as an open ambiguity rather than assumed either way. Refunds are issued to the original payment method within 10 business days of inspection. WARRANTY: WAU's FAQ says 'most products come with a manufacturer's warranty. Check the product description for details.' None of the 23 WAU product descriptions read for this catalogue states a warranty duration or its coverage, so at product level the warranty terms are a checked absence. WAU separately undertakes to replace a defective product free of charge, but does not say who pays international shipping, customs or VAT on a warranty claim.
- Safety documentation
- verified — checked 2026-09-09. Official WAU user guide (HIGE Pro Trimmer Set, model TRM-4) obtained and read 2026-09-09 from wau.ru; English section used. The model number matches this record's sourceSku, and it settles an ambiguity: wau.ru carries two HIGE pages, a compact shaver and this trimmer set, and only the manual printed TRM-4 belongs to this product. Specifications given as 7000 rpm blade rotation, IPX6, 1200 mAh, 2 hours' charge for 120 minutes' use, six attachments. PRECAUTIONS as written - never leave the device charging unattended; keep the charging cable away from heat sources; prevent water reaching the charging cable; do not insert or remove the plug with wet hands; do not use a damaged charging cable; charge, use and store between 15 C and 35 C; always switch the device off before cleaning; keep out of reach of children. Blades are to be lubricated only with the light-grade oil supplied or sewing machine oil, and cleaned only with a soft brush - no corrosive agents. This is a grooming appliance with no electrical-stimulation or light-emitting function, so the manual publishes no medical contraindications. Warranty stated as 1 year.

Pros and cons
Pros
- The attachment list is specific and countable, so the "6-in-1" description can be checked against it
- Battery capacity, runtime, charge time and rated power are all published as numbers
- A 200-minute runtime is long for the category and is stated rather than implied
Cons
- The four comb guards are described only as adjustable, with no cutting lengths in millimetres
- IPX6 is quoted without saying which parts may be rinsed or detached for cleaning
- No contraindications or safety guidance are published for the nose and ear attachment
What to examine
- Merchant listing title
- HIGE PRO - UNIVERSAL 6-IN-1 TRIMMER. Quoted as published by WAU.
- Attachments
- Six: a standard hair-cutting head, a beard and moustache detailing head, a shaver head, a styling shaver head, a nose and ear trimmer, and a body head. Four comb guards set the cutting length.
- Blades
- Stainless steel, which WAU cites for durability rather than for a measured cutting result.
- Motor
- Blade rotation quoted at 7000 RPM.
- Water resistance
- IPX6, which WAU says allows both dry and wet shaving.
- Display
- A digital display. WAU does not say which values it shows.
- Battery
- 1200 mAh, quoted at up to 200 minutes per charge with a 2-hour charge time. Input 5V 1A, rated power 5W.
- Storage
- A stand for the handset and the main attachments is included.
- What WAU does not publish
- No cutting-length range in millimetres for the four comb guards, no blade-replacement or sharpening guidance, no noise figure, and no statement of which parts are washable under the IPX6 rating.
- Manufacturer documentation
- WAU user guide for model TRM-4, obtained 9 September 2026 from WAU's Russian site: https://wau.ru/upload/iblock/eed/yv62vv85pjd8gnnfx4ts4onjwy798apu.pdf . It is more specific than the English product listing, and this profile's figures and cautions are taken from it where the two differ.
How to use
Fit the attachment for the job and, where a length is being set, the matching comb guard. Follow the instructions supplied with the device.
Limitations and cautions
PowderedPurple has not tested this trimmer. It is a grooming appliance, and WAU's own user manual (model TRM-4) lists electrical and handling precautions rather than medical ones: never leave it charging unattended, keep the cable away from heat and water, do not handle the plug with wet hands, do not use a damaged cable, and charge, use and store it between 15 C and 35 C. Always switch it off before cleaning, and keep it out of reach of children. The blades run at 7000 rpm: keep them clean, lubricate them only with the oil supplied or sewing machine oil, and replace an attachment whose blade or comb is chipped rather than running it against skin. The ear and nose attachment is for trimming visible hair at the opening only - do not push it into the ear canal or nostril.
