Abstract

A hair trimmer or other attachment can be secured to a conventional hair clipper. The attachment has a stationary blade and a moving blade that cut hair when the moving blade reciprocates. The moving blade of the attachment is driven by a moving blade of the hair clipper, which also reciprocates. The attachment has a housing which secures the attachment to the stationary blade or other part of the hair clipper. A drive member engages the moving blade of the hair clipper when the attachment is secured to the hair clipper, and the drive member in turn drives the moving blade of the hair trimmer attachment to cut hair. The attachment can be easily detached so that the hair clipper blades can be used to cut hair in the usual manner.
