Abstract: A split end cutting device (20.2) is embodied as an attachment (15.2), which can be detachably connected to a hair cutting machine (21), where the attachment (15.2) has first and second deflecting sections (41, 42), which are disposed parallel to and spaced apart from each other by a distance (X). By means of a hinge (14.2), a third deflecting section (43) can be moved from a first position (A) passing between the first and second deflecting sections (41, 42) into a second position (B) parallel to the first and second deflecting sections (41, 42), in such a way that a lock of hair (28) placed underneath the first and second deflecting sections (41, 42) is engaged from underneath by the third deflecting section (43) and essentially constitutes an upside down U-shape.
