About TITAN

TITAN is a UK based professional hair scissor brand distributed by Emboss Products International, a family owned business headquartered in Birmingham, England. The brand trades under the name Titan 1918 and serves clients in the UK, USA, Canada, and Europe. The company notes that it is not affiliated with other distributors selling the Titan name, including those on AliExpress.

Heritage

The Titan 1918 name references a founding year of 1918, making it one of the older brand names in the professional scissor space. The current distributor, Emboss Products International, has roots in hairdressing going back to the early 1990s, when a family member trained at a Vidal Sassoon course in London and went on to work on photoshoots with stylists including Beverley Cobella, Jennifer Cheynes, and Mark Hill.

Product Range

TITAN offers cutting scissors, thinning scissors, and left-handed scissors. Their specialties cover a broad set of techniques: blunt cut, slide cut, point cut, precision cutting, scissors over comb, wet cutting, dry cutting, thinning, volume control, and texture control (up to 30% removal). They also produce combination cut and thinning models.

According to the company, they regularly attend hair exhibitions across Europe to stay current with cutting techniques, then develop scissors adapted for those styles.

Market Positioning

TITAN positions itself in the affordable professional tier. Its range includes dedicated models for several cutting techniques at entry-level guide prices.

The brand was selected from over 600 companies that Emboss Products reviewed when sourcing scissors, according to the distributor.
