Hairdressing scissors are an important tool for every stylist. A great style cannot be achieved without the help of professional hair shears.

The manufacturing process and blade material of hairdressing scissors play an important role in determining the quality of shears. In fact, blade material is the most critical and important factor when deciding which hairdressing scissor to buy .

If the blade material is of good quality, it will enhance the performance of your hair shears. The most commonly used materials in hairdressing scissors are:

  • Nickel And Cobalt Alloys
  • Triple Tempered 440 Stainless Steel
  • Molybdenum Alloy
  • Cobalt/Molybdenum Alloy
  • Japanese Hitachi steel (Super Steel)

Hairdressing scissors that are manufactured from Japanese Hitachi steel give your shears an edge that stay sharper, longer. They will give you many MORE years of life than the steel used in most modern shears. This alone could save you $70 or more per year in sharpening expenses.

Hair Shears or Clippers for haircut...

Posted at 3:38 AM • No Comments

Each one of us needs a haircut and mostly we visit a salon to get a new hairdo. While cutting hair, some stylists use professional hair shears while some use clippers.

Hair shears and clippers are a good tool to cut hair. Haircutting is fast while working with clippers and stylists use them when a client wants a simple haircut. However, when a new style has to be achieved, haircutting scissors prove to be more helpful.

The primary reason why stylists love using haircutting scissors is because it allows them more flexibility to cut hair in tight places. Hair shears also allows more dynamic range of motion and cutting angles which is not possible with clippers.

One of the common misconceptions amongst many of us is that clippers can’t be used to cut women’s hair. However, this is not the case. Just like hair shears, clippers too can be used to cut hair for men as well as women.

Ivan Zoot, popularly known as the Clipper guy had shown women’s haircut using clippers when he was featured on ScissorBoy’s online cosmetology program. Ivan had shown how a stylist can use various clipper adjustments to achieve different styles while working on different hair textures.

Haircutting scissors are still widely used by stylists for various barbering actions. The availability of different scissors like Thinning shears, Lefty scissors, Yoko scissors, etc. makes them popular over clippers. Each of these scissors is used for specific actions, like Thinning shears are used for reducing the volume.

In the end, a client would always want to feel happy about his style while stepping out of the salon. To ensure a happy client, stylists have to make sure that they use only good quality haircutting scissors or clippers and use them intelligently to achieve a desired style for the client.

Dolly Parton hairstyles with hair s...

Posted at 10:51 AM • No Comments

Dolly Parton hairstyles have always been a center of attraction for many people. This singer, author, actress, philanthropist has become a fashion and style icon with her amazing hairstyles by using hair shears. Dolly has big blonde hair and is one of the most famous blondes in America.

Dolly Parton’s stunning blonde hair is iconic in the music world, but do you know that she has been wearing wigs since she was 19. She herself admits using wigs for improving her looks when she was young. I think she was never able to find a professional hairstylist and hence became dependent on wigs instead of hair shears. Dolly’s wigs are impeccably styled and well-suited to her facial structure, complexion, and personality.

One of the secrets of Dolly Parton’s natural hair is that it is light brunette, and not completely blonde. She always had a fascination for bright whitish blonde with various highlights, and therefore started to use wigs. Regular usage of wigs has also brought an end to the lengthy visits to salons for the endless styling sessions with hair shears. Dolly can now change her hairstyle at a moment’s notice and achieve whatever appearance she desires.

Dolly Parton hair is not original but she has sported various classic blonde hairstyles which include:

  • All lengths, from short layered bobs to long hair with sultry waves.
  • Featured layers for body, texture, and height.
  • Bangs to complement the layers and coordinate with the hair length.
  • Assorted hair highlight colors, typically ash or beige tones to complement her skin tone.

Most of Dolly’s styles works best if hair has a loose natural wave or soft body perm. A similar style can also be achieved with a quick blow dry and roller or curling iron. Since Dolly uses wigs and not her original hair, the usage of hair shears is limited and hence there are hardly any Dolly Parton Hairstyles with hair shears.
