Clipper cutting is the most traditional, tried-and-true method of barbering, and a standard technique that must be mastered. Being able to confidently use a pair of clippers and create the most classic men’s cut is essential to any hair cutting practice. With a pair of clippers, you can create almost any cut from skin fades and classic tapers, to some of the most advanced cuts such as the South of France cut or a FroHawk.

A haircut is called fading when it goes all the way around the head. The taper cut is longer on the top and tapers off on the sides and the back. Both tapering and fading can either be more dramatically styled or worn with a subtle blending. Tapering and fading can be done high, medium, or low.
Blending techniques with clippers are used on almost every men’s cut to minimize harsh lines and at ensure that hair fades or tapers evenly.
The t-trimmer is great for finishing cuts. It’s called the t-trimmer because the corners of the blade are shaped like a "t". It’s best used to shave around ears, the nape of the neck, or for the beard or neck area. The t-trimmer doesn’t have different lengths of blades, but it does have a stationary blade and a mobile blade.
The adjustable clipper doesn’t work by switching out blades, but you can change the blade length as you’re using the clipper to seamlessly blend the different lengths of the cut. The blade adjusts from 3/8 of an inch to 1/16 of an inch, allowing a lot of versatility in the cuts you create with the clippers. Clipper guards can also be used to achieve the desired haircut.
