Professional Opinion
The Luxor sits at mid-price in the Washi range and earns its keep on daily salon work. Japanese steel, an offset handle, and a convex edge in 5.5 or 6.0 inches make a tidy, no-fuss package for a working stylist.
Maintenance Tips
- Wipe blades after each client
- Oil the pivot as the maker directs
- Professional sharpening recommended when cutting performance decreases
