Three Chinese astronauts, or taikonauts – Ye Guangfu, Zhai Zhigang and Wang Yaping – used clippers to trim their hair aboard the Tianhe core module. The clippers were specially made for taikonauts and can collect trimmings while cutting hair. 

The taikonauts will stay in orbit for six months, setting a new record for China's crewed space mission duration.
