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 pivot daily
  • Use a sharpener experienced with Japanese convex edges
