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. If the issue persists, check if the pivot screw is too tight or too loose and adjust slightly.
Cutting is uneven or snagging hair.
Ensure the blades are clean and properly oiled. Check for any visible damage or misalignment. If the blades are dull, they may require professional sharpening.
Hand or wrist discomfort during prolonged use.
Review your grip technique to ensure it is relaxed and ergonomic. The hammer stopper is designed to reduce vibration; ensure you are utilizing its benefit by allowing for a natural hand position.
