Product Range
Vern’s catalog includes cutting scissors, thinning scissors, combined/intelligent scissors, and a Super Curve line. The brand’s most distinctive offering is its patented “Intelligent Combined Scissors” system, which allows up to eight individual scissors to combine via a magnetic bridge system, theoretically enabling 55,778 different cutting combinations. The brand also offers a both-handed cutting system designed for ambidextrous use.
The breadth of cutting techniques Vern supports – from point cutting and fly cuts to geometric cuts and disconnected work – reflects this combination-based approach to tool design.
Distribution
Vern sells through its own website (vern.com.tw) and through Precision Shears in the United States. The company has performed at international hairdressing events including HairWorld in Berlin, Las Vegas, Milan, and London, and reports having been invited to demonstrate in over 60 countries.
