1. Look at the steel of hairdressing scissors. The first condition of good hairdressing scissors is of course good steel. At present, hairdressing scissors usually use 440 C steel with a hardness of 58-60, especially domestic hairdressing scissors. How to judge the quality of steel? If you carefully observe the gloss of the blade, you can compare it with poor scissors (made of ordinary stainless steel). You will find that the gloss of a good steel blade is soft green, while ordinary stainless steel will give off slightly dazzling White luster. Some people will say that the gloss of the scissors has been polished. This is true. But no matter how polished, the color of the light emitted by the different materials of the steel itself cannot be changed, it is just brighter.
2. Look at the workmanship. The quality of hairdressing scissors depends on the fine workmanship. Pay attention to workmanship. First, check whether the inner edge line (that is, a white ray on the inside of the blade, which is the trajectory line that the two blades of the scissors touch) is even and smooth. If possible, open the scissors and close it gently to feel whether the cut is flat; the second is to see whether the guide rail is smooth. Most of the scissors guide rails are now “U”-shaped. Japanese scissors tend to be “V”-shaped, but the ends must be smooth; the third is to see whether the handle is ergonomically designed, whether the scissors feel comfortable in the hand, and the fingers are in the ring Whether it is uncomfortable inside, whether the edge of the ring is smooth and round, whether the position of the silencer is correct, whether the tail nail is firm, whether the knife tip is tight when closing.
3. Try the feel. Of course, if the hair clipper meets the above standards, there will be no big problem in the hand feel, but the hair clippers are all handmade, and there is no guarantee that the quality of each hair clip is perfect. Regardless of its quality, you should always feel comfortable when using it, because the shape and thickness of each person’s fingers are different, and the feel of each person with the same pair of scissors will also be slightly different. We want to make sure that we feel good when we use it. But when trying to feel, you must pay attention to opening and closing gently, because too fast speed will cause empty shears, which will cause great damage to the knife edge, and most vendors are not allowed to do this.
4. Try the sharpness. There are two simple methods here: First, take a single-layered tissue, spray it with water, and cut an opening with scissors. If the cut is smooth, it means sharp, and the scissors are rough, which means uncomfortable; second, take a thin cotton thread (the cotton thread on the towel is fine) and cut it with the tip of scissors. If you can cut it, it means that the scissors are sharp. However, no matter which method you try, you must get the seller’s consent before trying, otherwise unpleasant things will happen.
The above are all in terms of quality. In addition, we have to analyze the differences in each person’s economic situation and usage habits, including the brand, price, size, and hand shape of the scissors.
