Although hair clippers have become ubiquitous in all barbershops and salons the world over, there is still a romantic edge to traditional scissor cuts. We would never seek to do away with their electricity powered cousins, but we think shears deserve their day in the sun this summer. Here are seven of our favorite tasteful trims. Just as how you would need different tools for different occasions, you also need different pairs of professional hairdressing scissors depending on the type of haircut. Not all hairdressing tools are the same. They are designed with different materials and features to help you achieve the desired hairstyle with professional results every single time. Let’s check out the different types of scissors that we offer for popular haircutting techniques!
THINNING AND TEXTURISING
As a hairdresser, you will probably encounter a lot of clients with thick and coarse hair that request to thin and texturise their hair. Using your normal tool to cut voluminous hair is a no-go. You’ll need professional hairdressing thinners that are specifically designed for texturising.
Thinner scissors usually have teeth or notches on one side, while the other side is a smooth blade. Using thinners ensure that there is less damage for the hair compared to using razors to thin out the hair. We offer a wide range of thinning and texturizing scissors which are designed to give you a clean and precise haircut every time thanks to the premium grade steel.
It's just I'm not a watcher.
Did you get to 1,000 subscribers?
I did that a long time ago.
It's the 4,000 watch hours that's going to take you a while.
Yeah, the 1,000 subscribers you had
were just those watch hours.
I watch your videos sometimes
because I'm like subscribed to you as well.
Oh, are you?
Yeah, sick.
Alright, this is going to look fire.
Here, look, let's get you straight.
There you go.
Because I want this one to be sick.
Yeah, I got it.
And watch, I'm going to dry them
and then we're still going to texturize them
but they're already dropping much better
than they were.
I pretty much think they're in the right position
but we have to do a lot of double checking
to make sure.
And I know how to keep the back longer
but then to cut down some of this
just to reduce that weight
and have more weight up here
with the blinding texturing.
And then real texturing about here.
This hair has to be cut when it's wet
and then it has to be almost recut dry.
Just saying, that's how this one is.
Well, that's how this hairstyle is.
Yeah, forget dudes.
Stop talking about saying your hair.
Your hair doesn't mean anything.
Like, it's just the hairstyle
that it is.
Your hair will enhance it for sure.
What I'm saying is like it's hard
to be like, oh, I like this
if it's like totally straight
and flat.
Well, your hair is not going to be like that.
And it won't be like that
due to, you know, texture
and due to the way we're cutting it
and also due to how, you know,
how much volume your hair has in it.
Now it can become flat like it is now
but it's not going to.
Once we cut it, it won't be.
I just kind of look like
for Maya, so I can kind of
imagine what it would look like on me.
Just like a better image.
I'm never going to get that.
Yeah.
That's like when I look at a tattoo
and I'm like, oh yeah, I'd like to have that.
I don't look at the tattoo and say,
oh, let me look at it on someone exactly like
it. It's just if you like, you know,
you like it, then you bust it.
If not, then you...
Yeah, you got to just...
It's something you gravitate towards.
Look, put it this way.
Just doing hair for that long, you have very good hair.
Any haircut you did
will look good on you.
Yeah, dude, it's the truth.
You have good hair, dude.
That's why I say I wouldn't...
You're too worried about it.
It's not going to look good on you.
It will. Yours is the type of hair
you don't have to have a haircut on
and your hair still looks good.
That's what I'm saying.
Anyone who could grow their hair out and scissor cut it
has good hair.
This homie in the seat, you...
The only one that doesn't have good hair is me.
Yeah.
Like I couldn't, you know,
I'm bald, but I couldn't grow mine out
and then it would look horrible.
Then I would have to actually worry about
which one you did.
What did it used to look like?
It was thick. It was like...
God, dude, honestly, it looked fuckin' like a bowl of puff.
It was just fuckin' like
real thick
and real fizzy.
Did you have like curly hair?
Yeah.
Oh, it was curly.
As long as I hadn't started off with red hair for some reason.
Yeah, it's been about a year.
Might have been a tiny bit
longer than a year.
Yeah.
But it's been consistent.
Yeah.
Sometimes I like want to chop it all off
and sometimes I let it all go.
Now there's three people working here.
I know.
When I went to book it,
it was like more people.
Yeah, there's your girl now.
Quality.
Yeah.
The best ones on the scissor hookah
are me and Pat.
She's specializing.
She's a hardcore barbering, like razor fades
and her barbering is elite.
I mean, she's good at her scissor hookahs,
but I'm saying that's something
we're really passionate about.
She's really good
at doing men's hair with like a straight blade,
men's hair with...
All right, this looks sick on you.
And then you're right up, brother.
I appreciate you even coming in early, too.
Thank you.
Yeah, I'll check my YouTube.
How did you initially find us? Google?
Yeah, kind of.
Or was it Instagram?
Probably Instagram.
That's my mother.
Sir.
And I'm so adamant on the consultation
of what they want because it has to be
fire.
You know, so it's like it has to
be elite.
Within the realm of these clients aren't, you know,
hairstylists or barbers elite.
This is like...
This is a really good impression of what
we do here, just in the
sense of men's salon.
Where can a guy go to get this kind of haircut?
Nowhere but here.
Because anywhere else you go,
they wouldn't know how to use the scissors like this.
That's what I'm saying. Watch.
I can't wait till you see this.
It's like putting a puzzle together.
And this is something intricate.
So what's nice is when something like
this comes through, this is an
intense puzzle.
This isn't one of those pussy ass puzzles.
It's ******* 300 pieces.
This ************ is like *******
13,000 pieces.
Yeah, it's a masterpiece.
That's what these are.
This is a whole different *******
realm of *******...
See, dude, but this one,
it can't be, you know, hardcore cleaner,
but it's a lot cleaner.
They won't be able to see it, but you'll be able to know it.
Oh yeah, your hair is good.
It stays right where I cut it last time.
What do you mean?
I don't know.
It just...
Okay, the placement of your...
Watch, I'll even let them see so they can know.
The placement of your hair just places
fairly well.
Meaning you don't
have to cut a whole lot off.
Like down here, it doesn't...
It isn't...
It's not like, you know, certain neck hair
where there's an abundance of...
Like this one just, you know...
You can cut it right up to the spot
and not have to
overdo it.
There's something about it.
Yeah, so I make shaving cream every morning
when I just come through.
Like, handmade shaving cream.
Yeah, I see.
You have to dry this in order to
just see.
Yeah, I dry it just to see
just to make sure it's perfectly dry.
I just don't
want it to be, like, too short
on the sides. Yeah, I'm not going any
shorter than this.
These are just the thinning ones, look.
So that's all I'm really doing
Some dry texture.
I think it's already short enough for sure.
Yeah, I see what you're... I love you for that.
Yeah, if you were to go in that deep, that would be
turning into a damn gentleman's cut.
And then now move it around
because I want you to be able to see...
Yeah, exactly.
And see why we didn't go any shorter with the bangs?
Because then it would be too short.
Just because the dry lifts it up.
Yeah, because it's not going to curl
outwards.
Yeah, like when you get out of the shower,
it's not going to curl in.
It's going to pull it out.
Yeah, I kind of see how you did it, like the mullet style.
And what do you think?
Sick? You like it?
Let me see, like, in the mirror.
Watch, Luke, standing up. Watch here.
That way you can see it.
See, watch.
Yeah, just to where
it's cleaned up around the sides and then cut
long in the back still.
And look at the mirror
with the back, watch.
Right over here. That way you can see the back.
Face me, watch. Let me dust you off.
Now watch.
Luke in the mirror there.
And I want you to move around a little bit too, just to see.
Yeah, that's what I wanted you to do.
Don't be afraid to bust it around
and give it, and see how it's
doing that now. Yeah.
I kind of know how I'm going to, like,
be sick, like, when I
shower. Yeah.
I've never, like, had this before.
Yeah, that's ******* nuts.
What do you think? It's good? I like it.
Oh, yeah.
