Where this sits
In STR's thinning scissors lineup the STR Pro Black Thinning occupies the entry-level tier, priced above the STR H Series Thinning.
The Pro Black Thinning shares the titanium black coating, offset handle, and stainless steel construction of the Pro Black Offset, in a 6.0” thinning configuration. Tooth count is not confirmed by the brand — check the retailer listing for current specification.
Designed as the thinning complement to STR’s Pro Black cutting range, allowing a matched set for stylists who prefer consistent handle geometry across their cutting and thinning tools.
At the same price point as the Pro Black Offset, the pair represents a budget-conscious matched set with a consistent visual identity.
