Professional Opinion
Channels milled into its 30 V-shaped teeth help hair release smoothly, so thinning lines stay soft and hard to spot. A good fit for texturizing medium to thick hair without harsh marks.
Maintenance Tips
- Wipe blades after each client
- Oil the pivot as the maker directs
- Use a sharpener experienced with Japanese convex edges
