Where this sits
In Hepike's thinning scissors lineup the Hepike 30-Tooth Thinning Scissors occupies the mid-range band.
The Hepike 30-Tooth Thinning Scissors remove more weight per pass than higher tooth-count thinners. With 30 teeth, each close leaves visible gaps in the section — useful for tackling dense or coarse hair where a 40- or 46-tooth thinner would need too many passes to achieve the same reduction. The offset handle keeps the wrist in a lower position during blending work.
Steel is Hitachi 440 at 59.5 HRC, the same grade across the Hepike range. The serrated blade holds its edge through regular thinning use and re-sharpens cleanly.

Professional Opinion
Thirty teeth leave wider gaps between cuts, so each close takes out visible weight. That is what you want for thick or coarse hair, where finer thinners need pass after pass. The offset grip keeps your wrist low during blending work.
Maintenance Tips
- Wipe blades after each client
- Oil the pivot point regularly
- Professional sharpening when edge dulls
- Store in protective case
