Even high-quality hairdressing scissors require regular care.
Regular maintenance helps:
• maintain smooth movement
• preserve cutting performance
• reduce tool wear
📌 Proper care does not replace professional sharpening, but it significantly extends the lifespan of the scissors.
Cleaning After Work
After each use, it is
recommended to:
• remove hair from the blades and tension area
• wipe the scissors with a dry cloth
• remove moisture and cosmetic residue
📌 It is especially important not to leave moisture inside the pivot area.
Oiling the Scissors
Regular oiling helps maintain smooth movement and reduce friction.
Apply oil:
• to the tension screw area
• between the blades
Then slowly open and close the scissors several times so the oil spreads evenly.
Proper Storage
It is recommended to:
• store scissors in a dry place
• use a case or separate compartment
• avoid contact with other metal tools
📌 Even small impacts can damage the cutting edges.
What Is Important to Remember

on:
• the condition of the cutting edge
• proper tension adjustment
• cleanliness of the pivot area
• regular maintenance
