Product range
Two DH models are catalogued, both thinning shears at $140: the Offset Grip 24-Tooth and the Opposing Ergo Grip SW40S. Both are texturising tools. The 24-tooth model delivers medium-weight blending across most hair types; the SW40S uses an opposing ergonomic grip design and is built for stylists who prioritise hand position comfort during extended thinning sessions. For current specifications and availability, the authoritative source is the Direct Hairdressing Scissors storefront, which carries the DH line for the UK professional market.
Buying context
DH scissors are positioned as professional blending tools at the accessible end of the thinning-only specialist market. At $140 each, the two confirmed models offer a practical entry point for stylists adding dedicated thinners to their kit without committing to premium pricing.
