What type of hair are these scissors best suited for?
The Artero One 6.5in Scissor is ideal for stylists working with medium to fine hair densities. They are versatile enough for various cutting and texturizing techniques on these hair types.
Can I remove the finger rest?
No, the Artero One 6.5in Scissor features a fixed finger support and it cannot be removed.
How do I adjust the blade tension?

What material are the blades made of?

How often should I oil my scissors?
It is recommended to oil the pivot point of the scissors regularly, ideally daily or at least weekly, depending on how frequently you use them. This ensures smooth operation and prevents rust.
Can these scissors be used for thinning or texturizing?
Yes, the sharp razor edge allows for effective texturizing and gliding cuts, making them suitable for adding shape and movement to hair.
What is the primary benefit of the concave blades?
Concave blades help achieve a smoother cut, facilitate easier maintenance, reduce friction between the blades, and prevent intermediate jams.
Troubleshooting
Scissor feels stiff or difficult to open/close
Check the adjustable screw. It may be too tight. Loosen it slightly using a scissor screw key. Also, ensure the pivot point is clean and oiled.
Hair is getting snagged or cut unevenly
The blade tension might be too loose, or the blades may require sharpening. Adjust the screw for proper tension. If the issue persists, professional sharpening is recommended.
Scissor is not cutting cleanly
Ensure the blades are clean and properly aligned. Check the screw tension. If the blades are dull, they will need professional sharpening.
Rust spots on blades
