Professional Opinion
Fifty teeth at roughly a 35 percent cut gives the HML 50 a light, even removal that blends without steps. The 7.0 inch length and crane-style Arc Ergo Offset handle suit stylists who thin through larger sections.
Maintenance Tips
- Wipe blades after each client
- Oil pivot regularly
- Professional sharpening recommended when edge dulls
