Can someone tell me the number system of cutting hair when you go to the barbershop?

I am assuming you are speaking of clipper guards. They vary depending on what company made the clippers so this is not all the time, but generally the most popular brand is wahl. They start at the lowest being a number one, which equates to approximately 1/8". The next would be a two=1/4", then 3=3/8", and finally a 4=1/2". Some times the guards will have the actual measurements on them and not the numbers. There are higher numbers then four but the basic kit would be these four.
