How to Attach Universal Comb Attachments to Your Clippers (plus videos)

Even though many clipper comb attachments are labeled "universal," they don’t all attach the same way. Different brands and types have slightly different mechanisms, so it's important to follow the correct method for your specific comb attachment. We'll cover each type below. 

Why Propper Attachment Matters

Before turning on your clippers, always check that the comb attachment is fitted securely. If it’s loose or installed incorrectly, it may damage your blade or lead to an uneven cut.

If you're unsure which comb you have or how it should work, start by checking our Comb Attachments Guide for helpful info.
