The invention relates to a thinning tool ( 1 ) for a hair clipper ( 2 ) containing lower and top shearing knives ( 3, 4 ), each of which is provided with a row of teeth ( 5, 6 ). Said top knife ( 4 ) is actuated by alternating oscillation motion in a parallel direction to said rows of teeth ( 5, 6 ), the inventive thinning tool ( 1 ) being shaped in such a way that it is arrangeable on the lower knife (3). Said thinning tool ( 1 ) comprises a row of tines ( 7 ) which forms an extension (L) of the teeth ( 8 ) of the row of teeth ( 5 ) of the lower knife ( 3 ). The row of tines ( 7 ) is provided with fine slots ( 11 ) which have a conical extension (V) on the free ends thereof for holding and guiding hairs ( 10 ). The width (B) of tine slots ( 11 ) on the side of the shearing knives ( 3, 4 ) corresponds to a hair diameter and is used for guiding the hairs ( 10 ) towards said shearing knives ( 3, 4 ). In this way, the hairs ( 10 ) are cut one by one instead of being simultaneously cut in such a way that a fine graded hair thinning is obtainable without striates by said simple means.
