The Hair Stylist Scissors I Recommend You Purchase
No one knows better than hair stylists exactly how important good hair products are. From the type of shampoo one purchases to the styling tools used to create outrageous and elegant looks, you get what you pay for with quality.
When it comes to hair stylist scissors, the best shears can cost a pretty penny, but instead of thinking about that money as wasted, consider the money you spend on a quality pair of shears to be an investment in your future. If you buy scissors that are made cheaply, then you will have to replace them much more often, and thus, lose the money that you might have saved.
Instead of “replacing” your first pair of hair stylist scissors, add to them. If you buy a good pair of scissors that are made to last, you can keep growing your collection of scissors one piece at a time until you have a set that can tackle any type of hair.
What are the qualities to look for in a pair of good hair shears?
Hardness
You want scissors that will not rust, chip, or become dull easily. The sharper the blade, the more even the haircut and the more your clients will be impressed. Dull blades can actually cause damage to hair by creating split ends--something no client wants from a visit to her local salon.
The Rockwell scale is a scale that is used to measure the hardness of materials such as metal, and in our case, hair stylist scissors. You want scissors that are hard and durable enough to withstand the normal wear and tear of use, but scissors that are not so hard or heavy that they are difficult for a stylist to use for a long period of time.
Most experts agree that 440 stainless steel, also called Japanese steel, is the best base for hair stylist shears.
Design
Comfort is in the hand of the stylist when it comes to hair scissors. You will want to select something that you will feel comfortable using for a long period of time without making your hand tired. Most people find the offset design, with the two handles at a slight offset that fits the shape of the hand, to be most comfortable, but there are a wide variety of scissor designs.
A great pair of scissors that even the new stylist can afford are Hattori Hanzo Shears. They are of very high quality and their payment plans make them very accessible.
