Professional Opinion

For stylists who find a 30-tooth thinner too polite. 16 wide teeth carve out chunkier texture and shift bulk fast. Keep it for the texturizing pass and let your cutting scissor do the shaping.

Maintenance Tips

  • Wipe blades after each client
  • Oil pivot daily
  • Use a sharpener experienced with Japanese convex edges
