Abstract
An attachment for use with a conventional barber's clipper or trimmer includes a base plate having a front edge, a rear edge and a pair of opposing side edges. Extending from the front edge of the base plate is at least one central tooth disposed between and spaced from a pair of outer teeth. In at least one embodiment, the central tooth is wider than the outer tooth to create a unique hairstyle. Formed between each outer tooth and the central tooth is a channel that extends to the clipper's cutting blade. Extending from a distal end of each tooth are a pair of elongated, spaced tines that form a U-shaped slot for collecting and bundling a significant portion of hair to isolate it from the cutting blade.
