When cutting hair extensions we believe that you can get a better haircut with hair cutting scissors rather than your razor. Hair extensions go through an extensive color and chemical process to be colored and the cuticle to be flat and perfect enough to then sell off as hair extensions. When the hair has already been through too much it can easily split or dry out if you do not take the correct steps to look after the hair.
When cutting with a razor this can cause the ends to split and immediately feel dry. Learning the correct way to cut with the best hairdressing scissors, by a professional hairdresser is always the best option. If the tension is correct and your hair scissors are regularly sharpened at least twice a year then, hair scissors will never split or dry out your ends like a razor would.
So what are these Top 3 Best Hair Cutting Scissors we recommend you ask? Well, continue reading and you will find out…

Precision Cutting Scissors
Any woman's hair cutting scissors would be ideal for cutting hair extensions but we think if you're looking for the best style then the Matsui Precision hair cutting scissors are the best hair cutting scissors to cut Hair Extensions and we will tell you why.
When cutting Hair Extensions to get the best blend, it is advised to always point cut the ends and never blunt cut. Precision Hairdressing Scissors are the perfect Hairdressing scissors for precise blunt cutting due to the narrow ended blades. When point cutting Extensions you need to ensure that they are cutting a seamless and even blend to the ends of the Extensions and what better way to do that then with precision shears.
So a narrowed ended blade is better suited to point cutting than a traditional or a thicker ended blade. That's why these shears are called Precision's, because the narrower the blade means the more precise your cutting will be.
Slide Cutting Hairdressing Scissors
If you have never owned or tried a pair of slide cutting scissors then you are missing out!
Slide cutting Scissors are made with a softer steel than traditional hair cutting scissors. Slide cutting scissors also are a lot sharper than a traditional shear which allows you to slide cut with much more ease then any other type of hairdressing scissors.
Now slide cutting extensions to blend in the hair around your clients face and layers, is a game changer! No other Hairdressing Scissors or razor will give you a better blend when slide cutting with those super sharp blades.
Thinning scissors
