Description
Kiepe's entry-level Italian stainless steel cutting scissors for students and trainees entering salon work.
Where this sits
In Kiepe's cutting scissors lineup the Kiepe Academy Hairdressing Scissors occupies the budget tier, priced between the Kiepe Sensation Cut Razor Edge Scissors and the Kiepe Regular. Manufactured in Italy.
The Kiepe Academy series (models 2117, 2118, 206) is Kiepe’s entry point for students and early-career professionals. Built from Italian stainless steel with a classic even handle, the scissors are designed to be durable under daily training conditions while remaining accessible in price.
Available in 5.5” and 6.0”, the Academy covers the two most common student lengths. The classic handle suits stylists who are still establishing their grip preference before moving to an offset or semi-offset design. A thinning variant (model 2119) is listed separately as the Kiepe Academy Thinning.
