How to use

The offset thumb ring sits closer to the pivot than the finger ring, so opening and closing asks for less thumb travel than a level-ring handle. How the wrist and arm settle also depends on grip, technique and station.

If hair folds or pushes away, first consider the tension and cleanliness of the pivot rather than assuming the edge needs sharpening. Clean, oil and check the action before arranging service.

Sharpening & Care

Lift colour or developer from the mirror-polished surface promptly instead of leaving it until the client is finished. Follow the chemical product's directions for rinsing and drying; prolonged contact can stain the steel.

Chlorine bleach and other hypochlorite disinfectants pit stainless steel, especially with prolonged contact and in the crevices around the pivot; pitting is lost metal, not a stain. If one touches the scissors, rinse with water, dry completely, oil as the maker directs and inspect without touching the edge.

Keep the closed, dry scissors in their storage box or travel case, separate from other metal tools. Blade-on-metal contact can chip an edge. For transport, secure each closed pair so it cannot move about, and keep the case out of direct sunlight.
