How to Care for Hairdressing Scissors - Maintenance Tips for Professional Hair Shears

Hairdressing scissors and professional hair shears need regular maintenance to maintain their efficiency and increase their life. Any styling tool works well when it is brand new but with regular usage, it starts to become less efficient and without proper care, it can deteriorate to the extent of being of no use.

Taking proper care of hairdressing scissors is very important. Merely purchasing expensive hair shears doesn't mean they don't need maintenance. I've seen how some hairstylists don't care for their scissors until they go blunt. They then try to look for sharpening services and realize that not only have their shears lost their sharpness but because of sticking of debris and hair under junction point, there is less variance in shear tension.

It should be noted that regardless of the quality of your scissors, maintenance of hair shears is essential. Regular care for hairdressing scissors ensures their high performance and reliability. Also, hairstylists can expect shears to perform 2 to 3 times longer if they are taken care of regularly.

While there are different types of haircutting scissors, they all require proper care and maintenance. Every pair of hair shears should be cleaned, dried and lubricated at the end of every haircutting session. They should also be oiled daily.

While cutting hair, unwanted hair and debris gets stuck under junction point, so make sure you clean pivot point of your professional hair shears clean. Never try to bang your scissors to remove dirt – it will cause more damage. Also try to avoid dropping your hair shears because that can disturb balance of blades and cause damage to sharp edges.

Choosing the right type of hairstyling tools also plays an important role in their longevity and efficiency. For professional hairstylists, it is imperative to choose good quality hairdressing scissors because they will always perform better than cheap quality scissors.
