The Best Concept Scissors

The Concept range

Concept is a professional hair shear line available through Takano Canada, a Canadian specialty scissor retailer. The catalogue covers 4.5 and 5.0 inch cutting models at a consistent $150 price point. Pricing is available through Takano Canada.

Concept is carried exclusively through Takano Canada. The CP-45 and CP-50 differ only in blade length — 4.5 and 5.0 inches respectively — at the same price. The shorter 4.5-inch blade suits detail and precision work; the 5.0-inch is a standard general-purpose length.
