Professional Opinion
If your wrist or thumb complains after back-to-back clients, the swivel ring here is the point of the shear. The 5.5-inch convex blade takes everyday salon lengths in its stride, and the cobalt alloy build suits a busy column rather than occasional use.
Maintenance Tips
- Wipe blades after each client
- Oil the pivot point regularly
- Professional sharpening when edge dulls
- Store in protective case
