FAQs
Are these scissors suitable for thinning hair?
While these are primarily designed for cutting, the sharpness of the convex blades can be used for basic texturizing. For dedicated thinning, consider scissors specifically designed for that purpose.
How often should I oil my scissors?
It's recommended to oil the pivot point at least weekly, or more frequently if you use them extensively or notice any stiffness.
Can I sharpen these scissors myself?
It is generally not recommended for users to sharpen professional hair scissors themselves, as improper sharpening can damage the blade's edge. Professional sharpening services are advised.
What is the best way to clean these scissors?
Wipe them with a soft, dry cloth after each use. For disinfection, use a mild disinfectant wipe or solution and dry thoroughly.
Are these scissors heavy?
The scissors are designed with balanced weight for smooth handling and comfort during use, which typically makes them feel well-proportioned rather than heavy.
What material are the scissors made from?
They are crafted from high-grade stainless steel for durability and sharpness.
Troubleshooting
Scissors feel stiff or difficult to open/close.
Apply a small amount of scissor oil to the pivot screw and work the blades back and forth to loosen. Ensure no debris is caught in the pivot.
Hair is being pulled or cut unevenly.
Ensure the blades are clean and properly aligned. Check if the pivot screw needs tightening. For significant issues, the blades may require professional sharpening.
Rust spots appearing on blades.
Wipe the blades immediately with a soft cloth and apply a light coat of oil. Ensure the scissors are always dried completely after cleaning and stored in a dry environment.
