Wahl Premium Cutting Guide Comb #1 with Metal Clip The Wahl Premium Cutting Guide Comb #1 leaves approximately 3/16-inch of hair and is the go-to attachment for tight fades, short tapers, and clean blends. Reinforced with a sturdy metal clip, this Wahl guide comb locks securely onto your clipper blade so your guide length stays consistent stroke after stroke.
Designed for professional barbers, the #1 guide comb is engineered to fit Wahl full-size clippers and offers smoother glide than basic plastic guards. The metal clip resists flex during heavy cutting, preventing the comb from popping off mid-pass and keeping your lines crisp.

- Premium #1 cutting guide leaves about 3/16-inch (4.5mm) of hair

How to Use
Snap the Wahl Premium #1 guide comb onto a clean, oiled clipper blade and confirm the metal clip is fully seated. Move the clipper against the grain in slow, steady strokes, keeping the flat of the comb in contact with the head. Use the #1 as a transition between your skin or zero-gap work and longer guards higher up the head. After the cut, remove the comb, brush out any trapped hair, and store it with the rest of your guard set to keep your kit organized.
Best For
- Tight low fades and short tapers
- Blending zero-gap work into longer guard lengths
- Barbers using Wahl full-size professional clippers
