In any hairdressing business, the right scissors for cutting are important. In general, there are a huge number of such scissors - they are selected both for the angle of inclination of the haircut, and for different types of hair, even the type of hairstyle matters. You can see for yourself that there are many varieties of such devices by going to the nearest hairdresser or specialized store. How do hairdressers choose the right and high-quality scissors for cutting?
Before paying attention to details, professionals make a general inspection of scissors. Professional and high-quality scissors for cutting should be perfectly even, without any extra curly cutouts and similar “decorations”. The scissors should ideally lie on the hand and be comfortable with any turn of the hand, but if any discomfort is felt, it is better to put this “tool” back on the counter, since the hairdresser can simply bring his hand together during the procedure with an unsuccessful swing.
The second point that the professional buyer relies on is the material from which the scissors are made. Ideally, if the composition will includehigh-quality steel marked from 58 to 62 Rockwell units. If this figure is greater, then such scissors may turn out to be fragile and it will not be so convenient to work with them. The material covering the handles can be anything: metal, plastic, and rubber - it will already depend only on you and the structure of your brush.
Another important parameter by which scissors for cutting hair are selected is, as already mentioned, the type of hairstyle and the angle of the blade. Here you can already guess that the larger the angle of inclination, the sharper the scissors will cut and the less painstaking work the hairdresser will have to do. And vice versa, the straighter the sharpening angle, the more “brutal” the hairstyle will look. These haircut scissors are perfect for men's classic haircuts.
These parameters are key for ordinary scissors, but what if the choice falls on thinning scissors?
Knowing that thinning is trimming the ends of the hair, putting them in order and flattening their shape, we can say that the main thing to do when choosing is the type and material of the teeth of such scissors.
The teeth are made from the same material as the scissors themselves - steel, but their location, frequency and thickness depend on how professional you are a hairdresser, what skills you have and how you were taught the lessons of the master. We only note that the thicker the teeth, the more volume of hair they will capture. The cloves can be arranged in two rows (for such you needtime to get used to), and in one - from above or below, the choice depends on your preferences and skills.
That's all, it remains to summarize: choose high-quality shears for cutting, do not skimp on this, and the client will not skimp on paying for your work. Choose each tool for a particular type of hairstyle, if you do not have great professional skills, and when choosing scissors with teeth, rely on how you feel comfortable and in what order you usually cut the strands.
