The Roseline Left-Handed Thinning Scissors are designed for left-handed professional dog groomers needing to remove bulk from coats or perform fine blending. Their key benefit is precision control and comfort for intricate grooming tasks, though they require careful handling due to their micro-serrated blades.

While designed for professionals, beginners who are left-handed and willing to learn the specific technique for thinning shears can use them. Patience and practice are key.
Micro-serrated blades have tiny ridges that grip the hair, preventing it from slipping as easily. This allows for more efficient removal of bulk and helps to hold the hair in place for precise blending.
Yes, these shears can be used on cats, particularly for managing thicker coats or for blending. However, always ensure the pet is comfortable and calm, and use gentle techniques.
The adjustable tension screw allows you to customize how easily the scissors open and close. A tighter tension can offer more control for fine work, while a looser tension may feel smoother for bulk removal.
For professional use, it's generally recommended to have them sharpened every 6 to 12 months, or whenever you notice a decrease in cutting performance. Regular professional sharpening maintains their precision and longevity.
The scissors are made from premium stainless steel, which offers durability, corrosion resistance, and good value for commercial use in busy grooming salons.
Check the tension screw. If too tight, loosen it slightly. If too loose, tighten it. Ensure the pivot area is clean and oiled.
The tension may need adjustment. If the issue persists, the blades may require professional sharpening. Ensure you are holding the hair correctly with the micro-serrated teeth.
Try using the scissors without the inserts, or test different insert sizes if available. Ensure the finger rest is adjusted for your comfort.
Clean the blades immediately with a rust remover designed for scissors. Ensure the scissors are dried thoroughly after cleaning and oil them to prevent further rusting. Store in a dry environment.
Setup:
These scissors are ready for immediate use. Ensure the tension screw is set to your preference before your first use. You can adjust it using a scissor tension key (sold separately) or a small flathead screwdriver. Turn clockwise to tighten and counter-clockwise to loosen. Removable rubber finger inserts can be added or removed to suit your grip comfort.
