How to properly handle and store hairdressing scissors to protect the cutting edge, avoid damage, and extend the lifespan of the tool.
Hairdressing scissors require careful handling.
Always place scissors on the table in a closed position to avoid damaging the cutting edge.
It is best to place them on a soft cloth or towel rather than on a hard work surface.
Extra care should be taken when using new scissors or immediately after sharpening.
During this period, the cutting edge is extremely sharp and requires a short break-in period.
For the first 1–2 weeks after purchase or sharpening, it is not recommended to perform heavy or rough work.
Also, do not squeeze the scissors too tightly, as this may damage the cutting edge.
Store scissors in protective cases to prevent damage.
Do not keep the tool in humid environments or near a sterilizer, as this may lead to corrosion and faster dulling.
