Abstract
The hair trimming apparatus disclosed herein is particularly adapted for trimming beards, mustaches and the like. It includes a hair clipper and a one-piece adjustable comb attachment. The comb attachment is slidably secured to the hair clipper by rails or the like which surround part of the clipper, such as the side edges of a stationary blade. The position of the comb attachment with respect to the blades is determined by placing any one of a plurality of indentations in the attachment over a protruding part of the clipper, such as one or more screw heads which secure one or more of the blades to the clipper. The position may be easily changed by merely moving the attachment to a different indentation. In this manner, the comb attachment may be easily secured to the clipper in any one of a number of positions, without manipulating other parts of the apparatus. In addition, fins on the comb attachment are recessed behind the clipper blades so that the clipper may more easily reach and trim mustache hair by cutting it in the direction of hair growth.
