Professional Opinion
Thirty teeth puts this firmly in finishing territory: it takes a little hair per pass and leaves a soft, blended result rather than visible texture. A good match for refining ends and diffusing weight lines on the final pass.
Maintenance Tips
- Wipe blades after each client
- Oil the pivot point regularly
- Professional sharpening when edge dulls
- Store in protective case
