Why buy professional hair shears?
What are the benefits and reasons as to why you should invest in a pair of professional hair shears as opposed to the cheaper variety? Is there really any difference in quality or is it just another way of getting more money out of people?
Professional vs standard
The cost difference between the professional and the standard pair of shears is quite considerable, so it is no wonder that people who are looking at cutting or trimming their own hair may have well decided to go for the cheaper option. After all, you only want to trim it, and not re-style it. However, using cheap kitchen scissors instead of proper hair cutting scissors can lead to disaster. Not only are they shaped differently, but the cutting edge of such cutting instruments is not designed to manage the delicate strands of hair. This can lead to damage, which only a professional or trained stylist can repair. If you want to learn how to trim your own hair, whether it be just the fringe or more you should also invest in a pair of hair cutting shears. There are many types on the market and you do not have to opt for the most expensive, for the purpose of simple trims a cheaper pair of haircutting scissors will suffice.
Which brand?
There are many brands and types of hair cutting shears on the market today such as Kamisori and Kissaki. Many other effective ones are found in local supermarkets and other outlets. Although these are a fraction of the cost of the big name branded ones, they will do the job as they are shaped and designed strictly for the purpose of cutting hair instead of boxes, tape and wrapping paper. If, however, you are looking at starting a college course or have done so and are looking to set-up your own business as a mobile hair stylist, then you really do need to part with a significant sum of money and buy a good quality pair of shears. It is one thing to use cheaper products on your own hair to trim it, but it is not practical if you are going to be charging other people for the privilege.
