Troubleshooting
Scissors feel stiff or difficult to open/close.
Apply a small amount of scissor oil to the pivot point and work the blades back and forth to loosen them. Ensure no hair is caught in the pivot.
Hair is getting caught or pulled during cutting.
Ensure the blades are properly aligned and that the tension screw is correctly adjusted. Clean the blades thoroughly; hair residue can cause pulling. For very thick sections, try cutting smaller portions.
Blades are not cutting cleanly.
Clean the blades thoroughly. If the issue persists, the blades may need professional sharpening. Avoid cutting materials other than hair, which can dull the blades.
Discoloration on the blades.
This may be due to residual product or moisture. Clean the blades immediately with a soft cloth. If it's a persistent issue, ensure they are completely dry after cleaning and consider if any harsh chemicals were used.
