DOES YOUR CLIPPER HAVE A TAPER LEVER?
Not all clippers will have a taper lever, if they do it will look like this:
The taper lever allows you to change the closeness of your cut between guide comb lengths. Moving the lever up for a closer cut, and down for a longer cut. This is particularly useful for fading and blending as you can be more precise with your cutting lengths.
ATTACHMENT COMBS
Your clipper kit will usually come with a number of attachment combs. Placing these on the blade will enable you to cut to different lengths.
The standard attachment comb lengths are:
#0.5 |
#1 |
#1.5 |
#2 |
#3 |
#4 |
#5 |
#6 |
#7 |
#8 |
#12 |
1.5mm |
3mm |
4.5mm |
6mm |
10mm |
13mm |
16mm |
19mm |
22mm |
25mm |
38mm |
For example, if your clipper comes with #1-4 attachment combs, you will be able to cut from 3mm to 13mm. Without the combs, the blade gives a much shorter cutting length (our standard blade will cut to 0.8mm).
If your kit doesn’t come with a comb length that you are looking for, they can be purchased separately
here.
If you’re not sure which combs will fit your clipper, find the right combs through the Spares & Accessories tab on the product page.
