[United Kingdom, 11/4/2018] - The hairdressing profession benefits from the usage of tools that promote comfort and usability. Using comfortable barber scissors reduces strain on the wrist, hand and elbow. With reduced strain, hairdressers and barbers experience lower risk of developing repetitive strain injury (RSI) or carpal tunnel syndrome.

Using offset scissors enables hairdressers to work in a more natural position due to the thumbhole moved inwards towards the scissor’s screw. UK-based supplier Scissor Tech UK offers Yasaka offset convex-edged scissors for hairdressers and barbers.

Japanese Style Scissors

Offset scissors have a convex blade, which is also known as ‘Japanese Style’ blades. Convex-edged scissors are hollow on the inside allowing for a smooth cutting action. Suitable for more experienced hairdressers, they can be used for almost all cutting techniques and have impressive slicing capability due to their extra sharp edge.

The convex-edged scissor’s manufacturing process is similar to crafting a Samurai sword because it is a long process done by a skilled bladesmith. They also require special sharpening. With regular servicing and proper care, a pair of convex-edged scissors will deliver excellent performance throughout its lifetime.

Use Yasaka Scissors

A good example of a convex blade is Scissor Tech UK’s Yasaka scissors. The shears are manufactured from high purity stainless steel in Japan and have exceptional durability, corrosion resistance and wear and abrasion resistance. The Yasaka’s blades are hardened and then annealed in a vacuum.

The Yasaka brand is the result of years of bladesmith mastery, state-of-the-art manufacturing equipment and a high level of quality control measures. Committed to product excellence, Scissor Tech UK delivers a wide range of Yasaka scissors as well as other brands to meet the needs of hairdressers everywhere.
