Frequently Asked Questions
Why is a left-handed barber scissor important?
Left-handed barbers using right-handed scissors are cutting against the blade orientation, which causes pushing, bending, and folding of hair rather than clean cuts. True left-handed construction ensures the upper blade is on the correct side.
Are there other left-handed Joewell models for salon use?
Yes. The Joewell LC LEFTY is available in 5.0 and 5.5 inch sizes for salon haircutting. The LSF is specifically designed for barbering with its longer 6.5 and 7.0 inch lengths.
