What’s Your Hairstylist Personality?

The personalities in a hairdressing salon can read like a bookshelf - of Little Miss and Mister Men books. There’s Little Miss Giggles sharing a joke, Miss Chatterbox who never tires of talking, Miss Helpful assisting a senior, Miss Late every Monday morning, and the always smiling Miss Sunshine.

Luckily, there’s a pair of shears to match the personality of every hair stylist. Choosing your own shears is one way of letting your personality shine through. When you’re wearing the uniform and sensible shoes, your identity can be a little hidden. But the shears in your hand can hint at your suppressed individuality.

And if shining a spotlight on your personality at work isn’t important, you can at least choose a pair of special shears that make you smile. We all need a little motivation to help us through a long day.

What are the Best Hairstylist Shears?

The top shears have it all. They need to be functional, durable, comfortable to hold, easy to use and stay sharp for hundreds of hours of cutting. Once you’ve taken care of function, you can focus on the design.

No one wants to hold a pair of boring shears all day when they can have a pair with personality. You might think a funky pair of shears could be fun for the first hour or two but using them for eight might be a different story. Rest assured, Scissor Tech only stocks ergonomic professional hairdressing shears made from the highest quality Japanese and German steels. None of these shears trade funky form over function.
