Kansai grades its texture tools by tooth count: a 33-tooth thinner, a 15-tooth texturizer, and a 5-tooth chunker, each removing a different amount of hair per pass. The value-tier line is carried in the US by Scissor Mall and Dynamic Sharpening, with cutting shears from 5.0 to 7.0 inches in right- or left-hand builds. The four models run $149 to $169 at guide prices.
About
