Product Information
Full details
The Eurostil Hair Scissors (Model 01978) are designed for professional unisex adults seeking precision and comfort in their haircutting tools. These scissors offer a reliable cutting experience thanks to their durable plastic handle and balanced design. A potential consideration is that, being plastic-handled, they may not offer the same long-term durability or weight distribution as metal-handled professional shears for extremely heavy daily use.

FAQs
Are these scissors suitable for left-handed stylists?
These scissors are designed with a standard grip configuration and are typically intended for right-handed use. Left-handed specific scissors have a mirrored design.
How often should I oil my scissors?
It is recommended to oil your scissors at least once a week, or more frequently if you use them extensively or in a humid environment.
Can these scissors be used for thinning hair?
These are standard cutting scissors. For thinning hair, you would typically need specialized thinning or texturizing shears.
What is the warranty period for these scissors?
Please refer to the product packaging or the retailer's website for specific warranty information, as warranty terms can vary.
How should I store these scissors when not in use?
Store them in a dry place, ideally in a protective case or sheath, to keep the blades sharp and prevent accidental damage.
Can I sharpen these scissors myself?
While minor blade cleaning is user-friendly, professional sharpening by a qualified technician is recommended to maintain the blade integrity and precision.
Troubleshooting
Scissors are not cutting cleanly.
Ensure the blades are clean and free of debris. Check if the pivot screw is too tight or too loose; adjust slightly if necessary. If the issue persists, the blades may need professional sharpening.
The scissors feel stiff or difficult to open/close.
Clean the blades and pivot area. Apply a drop of professional scissor oil to the pivot screw and work the blades back and forth. Wipe away excess oil. If stiffness remains, the pivot may require professional adjustment.
Handle feels uncomfortable during prolonged use.
Ensure you are holding the scissors with a proper grip. While the plastic handle is designed for comfort, individual hand sizes vary. Consider a finger insert if the handle feels too large, or ensure your technique is not causing undue strain.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These scissors require no specific setup. They are ready for immediate use upon unboxing.
Compatibility: These are general-purpose hair scissors and are compatible with all standard hair types and textures.
Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: After each use, wipe the blades clean with a soft, dry cloth to remove hair and product residue. For a deeper clean, use a disinfectant specifically designed for grooming tools, applied to a cloth, not directly onto the blades.
- Lubrication: Periodically, apply a small drop of professional scissor oil to the pivot screw area. Open and close the scissors a few times to distribute the oil, then wipe away any excess.
- Storage: Store the scissors in a dry place, preferably in a protective case or sheath, to prevent damage to the blades and maintain their sharpness.
- Handling: Avoid dropping the scissors, as this can damage the blades and affect their alignment. Keep them away from harsh chemicals that could corrode the metal.
