Why is it necessary to have all three types of clippers (i.e. detachable blade, adjustable blade, and a trimmer)?
Each type of clipper is designed to do a specific job. Using the right tool for the right job will produce better and quicker results. The detachable blade clipper is built with a rotary motor that’s powerful and designed to withstand continuous use. This clipper, along with it’s detachable blades will be used for cutting the majority of hair. The adjustable blade clipper is generally built with a magnetic or pivot motor. The blade will adjust from a #000 to a #1. This clipper will be used for fading or diminishing lines of a tapered haircut. With it’s smooth action, this clipper works great for “fine tuning” flat tops, crew cuts, etc. once they have been roughed in with a detachable blade clipper. The trimmer is used for nothing more than edging and trimming fine hair on the neck, ears, nose, brows, etc. Cutting the interior of a beard or haircut will rapidly dull the fine blade of a trimmer.
