Fixed combs

Clippers and trimmers are often equipped with fixed-height removable combs. The more combs in the kit, the smoother transitions the device can make. The standard set usually includes 3-5 combs, more advanced models may have 7-10 combs of a fixed height in a set.

Power supply

Mains. The clipper is powered by a 230 V electrical network. The benefit of this power source is the unrestricted operational duration (no need for periodic battery recharging). However, drawbacks include the necessity of an available electrical outlet and the limitation imposed by a power cord, which can impede movement and cause operational inconvenience.

Battery. The clipper is powered by its own built-in battery. On the one hand, this gives maximum freedom of movement (since there is no power cord) and battery life — such devices can be used even where there is no electrical network. On the other hand, the battery life is limited, it must be constantly recharged — otherwise there is a risk that the charge is exhausted at the most inopportune moment (for example, during the haircut).

Batteries. The clipper is powered by interchangeable batteries. In terms of its primary pros and cons, this power source resembles battery power (as mentioned earlier). However, in contrast to built-in batteries, replaceable batteries offer less capacity, making them suitable for low-power devices like nose trimmers (see Type) that don't demand prolonged usage. On the positive side, replaceable batteries allow for swift replacement when depleted, whereas a built-in battery would necessitate a lengthier recharging process in such instances.

Additionally included

Scissors. The inclusion of a set of scissors with the hair clipper enhances its value, catering to both experienced enthusiasts and professional hairdressers. This bundled option provides a comprehensive haircutting package, and the scissors serve as a valuable tool for addressing finer details that the clipper may not handle alone.

Comb. Availability in a set of delivery of the clipper of a comb. A comb is one of the most necessary tools for a hairdresser, so when purchasing it together with a typewriter, the user gets rid of the need for a separate purchase.

Charging stand. The stand serves a dual purpose as a charger and storage unit for the machine. It facilitates convenient recharging during quick intervals between cutting sessions, making it ideal for hairdressers to keep the machine on the stand while using scissors or other tools. Additionally, it can double as an accessory stand (see Stand for accessories).

Stand for accessories.The stand is designed to store clipper accessories such as detachable nozzles, cleaning brushes, and oilers. Using this dedicated stand reduces the chances of losing any of these accessories. In cordless clippers, this role is frequently fulfilled by the charging stand, which also serves as a storage solution (refer to Charging Stand).

Case. Cases include all kinds of rigid structures for storing the clipper. Cases in the form of handbags made of thick fabric also fall into this category. In addition to reliable storage of the device, they also elevate the model to the highest class. In low-cost clippers, a much more primitive fabric cover is included in the package.
