Professional Opinion
The Rosebud keeps the price friendly while staying with 440C steel and a convex edge, so everyday cutting still feels clean. The distinctive handle design stands out, and 5.5 or 6.0 inch lengths cover standard salon work.
Maintenance Tips
- Wipe blades after each client
- Oil the pivot as the maker directs
- Professional sharpening recommended when cutting performance decreases
