Electric clippers utilize different-sized detachable blades or plastic guard attachments to cut hair to a uniform length. They can also be used with special tapering attachments or combs for blending. Clipper blades and attachments are usually categorized by numbers. Generally, the smaller the number of a blade, the shorter the cut; when blades and attachments are labeled "0" (zero), the more zeros, the shorter the cut (i.e., a 00000 blade cuts shorter than a 000 blade). The exact length of hair left by a clipper blade will depend on the manufacturer and model number of the clippers. Three very common clipper manufacturers used by barbers are Andis, Oster, and Wahl; some of their common blade numbers are shown below.
Old-style hand clippers are also available in numerous blade lengths, but electric clippers are far more commonly used.
