Where this sits
In Verne's thinning scissors lineup the Verne Air Back VIII Thinning Scissors occupies the premium tier, priced above the Verne Yume TYB Thinning Scissors.
The Verne Air Back VIII carries a 37-tooth thinning blade — the tooth count Verne publishes for this model. At 37 teeth the scissor removes a small proportion of hair per pass, making it suited to light texturising, soft blending on fine hair, and finishing detail where heavy removal would create visible lines. The offset handle keeps the hand position consistent with the Air Back cutting range.
Within the Air Back thinning pair, the Air Back VIII at 37 teeth handles the lighter end while the Air Back II at 23 teeth handles heavier bulk removal. Stainless steel is the published material without a specific grade designation.

Professional Opinion
Thirty-seven teeth means very little hair comes out per pass, which is exactly what you want for light texturising and soft blending on fine or thin hair. It also works well for finishing and separation detail where heavier removal would show lines.
Maintenance Tips
- Wipe blades after each client
- Oil the pivot point regularly
- Professional sharpening when edge dulls
