Clippers differ in the type of food they eat.

• Network - functioning from the power supply network. They guarantee long-term trouble-free operation. Of the shortcomings, the need for the presence of a power source is noted, as a result of which it will not be possible to take the device, for example, on a long hike.
• Rechargeable - independent work after charging the battery from the power supply, which is convenient outside the house. The downside is the charging time (10 hours or more). Some models only work for 30 minutes without recharging.
• Combined - models combining the possibility of power supply and operation from the network and autonomously. This is the best option with the ability not to stop using the device through the power source after the battery is discharged. Accordingly, the cost of such devices is higher than all others.

In terms of power, devices are of two types.

• Vibrating. Such models of machines operate at low power (from 8 to 15 watts). The power of work in some models can be adjusted using a special screw on the device. These machines are noisy.
• Rotary. They have a power in the range of 20-45 W and an internal cooling system that prevents the motor from overheating. These models have knives of a removable type, which easily and evenly cut off thick hair with a rigid structure. Of course, the price of such devices is much higher.

The disadvantage of such models can be called the high cost, assigned due to the presence of an extensive set of functions. The main features of the professional hair clipper:

• long non-stop work;

• longer wire.

Household cars.They are considered the most suitable for regular use (haircuts for family members, grooming, etc.). This is a budget solution for those who wish to save money on a visit to the hairdresser.

When choosing a device for a haircut, it is important to think over for what purposes it is needed. If you plan to cut your hair frequently in different areas, it is better to purchase a trimmer with additional attachments. The attachments with which the devices are equipped are removable or retractable. The removable version is considered more convenient in the context of cleaning the device, and the second is compact in size. For a beard with a mustache, there are separate attachments for trimming the length and performing haircuts. The value of telescopic attachments lies in the convenience of determining the length of the hair without working with removable parts.

Panasonic models have chiselled knives made from stainless steel alloy with X-shaped sharpened blades at a 45 degree anglethat allows you to cut and trim your hair neatly at home. The blade unit is different in width, with a choice of up to six steps. Rotary-type devices are equipped with removable knives.

Different blade configurations allow you to work with thick and coarse hair, as well as create skillful patterns on the head. In some models, the speed of the blades is set using a switch, while in others it is automatic. Usually, high-speed cars are used by professional craftsmen.

On some machines there are additional functions in the form of a turbo mode, a moisture-resistant case, a backlight, a charging indicator of the device, the presence of thinning, and so on. In the process of selecting a hair clipper, you need to pay attention to what options a particular model has. On the one hand, their presence makes the use of the device more convenient, but at the same time its cost increases, in direct proportion to all additional parameters and functions.

For the first haircut with the device, it is advisable to use the largest attachment so that it is possible to correct the haircut if necessary. The step-by-step application of the machine is as follows.

• Hair must be divided into zones: occipital, temporal and parietal.
• It is essential to use the largest of the tips with the blades facing up (for example, 15 mm - for the correct choice you need to check the instructions, where information about all combs is given). The haircut starts from the back of the head, from the area along the hairline, gradually moving to the temporal zone and completing the process at the crown of the head. It is desirable to drive the typewriter over the head smoothly, periodically combing the strands.
• Then a line of smaller nozzles (for example, 9–12 mm). She is repeated in the area of ​​the temples and crown. For a smooth transition, the device should be pressed closer to the head in the occipital area, and as it approaches the crown, the tilt between the device's attachment and the head should be increased.
• Using a small nozzle (6 mm), treat the bottom of the occipital zone and temples with the device. At the same time, the hair is combed in different directions.
• At the end, the nozzle is removed, and the edging is made with the help of the machine.

If necessary, the bangs are trimmed with scissors. The remaining protruding hairs or missing strands are also cut off with scissors, or you can again walk through these places with a typewriter.
