I used to play guitar. I have always possessed flaxen ribbons of golden hair trailing across my neck, shoulders and face. When I played power chords, I convulsed my neck so my hair flailed around like the windswept tail of a majestic box kite. Years of thrashing my neck for several hours at a time has caused multiple aural hematomas (a condition common in dogs) in which pockets of blood have accumulated behind my ear flaps causing dizziness, confusion and intense eye-withering pain as I now try and perform even the most mundane tasks like toothbrushing or combing my long beautiful tresses. No longer able to perform anything more than a simple ballad in my robust neck brace while carefully perched dead still on a specially constructed high-backed stool, I have opted to cut the fore curtain of hair fanning across my forehead and waterfalling down my pallid face. These scissors worked awesome. Read more

I am an ex-cosmetologist/hair stylist. I have been cutting my own hair for years. These scissors cut like a knife through butter. Be careful when face framing! The blades are better than you think. At this price I expected less. Also, why are the other reviewers complaining about them being packed in water? This is not tuna or sardines. The scissors come packed in oil, as they should. Water. really people? Read more

When I received these scissors in the mail I could tell immediately that they were knock-offs without even opening the package. As you can see in the first picture the genuine pair is pretty slick looking: really clean cut sharp edges, small pointed tips, sharp black logo with the correct proportions and font type along the center of the blades, the lotus flower has wide black bold petals that have a super fine line barely separating the petals, and tension adjuster and screw is all gold toned and pretty flat across the top.The second picture is the pair I received: the tension adjuster dial is silver and slightly domed and the screw head rounded (even though the plate and tension screw is gold toned), the blades are wider and slightly curved/domed on the top, the edges don't have those sharp clean lines, The tips are wide and flat. The logo has a slightly different font and proportions, the ink is a faded/sketchy gray/black, and the lotus flower has a lot of space between the petals with lots of empty space/thicker line separating the petals.The 3rd picture is of a genuine pair with the finger pads a sharp black with glitter specks in them, the bumper guard/stopper that separates the handles has a black rubber tip that is a little smaller than the nub that it sits on, the nub the rubber stopper sits on has a unique curve and angle setting that is sort of a domed square (hard to describe). The gold finger rest/rod that sticks out the top of the handle has a flat top with a small rectangular notch and a small rubber circle at the bottom where it attaches to the handle, the shape is like 2 funnels (the top 1 larger than the bottom 1) attached at the small ends creating a smooth hourglass shape that has a clearly defined angle where the top and bottom meet about 2/3 of the way down, with completely smooth clean-lined sides.The last 4 pics of the fake pair show that the finger pads are a plain flat black, with the bumper guard a clear/pale dome sitting on a totally flat topped circular base with the sides matching up. The finger rest has a domed top and a gently curvy hourglass shape with the skinniest part of the curve about halfway down the length.I hope that helps you guys. Thankfully Amazon has their satisfaction guarantee. I will be ordering another pair to replace these. Read more

Like many of us, I found my bangs getting a little shaggy during coronavirus quarantine and was no longer looking my best on Zoom calls. These scissors were a lifesaver. They are sharp and precise with a good grip, and I was easily able to follow the instructions in an article/video I found on DIY bang-trimming. Cuts are clean and you really can’t tell it wasn’t done at the salon. Bonus: I can see again!By the way, I paid full price for these and got nothing for the review... seems like so many products here have scam paid-for reviews these days, so know this isn’t one of them.

Awful, terrible scissors. I could barely cut my Shih Tzu’s hair with these, let alone any human member of my family! The rest of these reviewers have either been a. Created by a computer program b. Paid for their endorsement or c. Using Crayola scissors for 3yr olds because these won’t cut anything. SAVE YOUR MONEY! Read more

These scissors have nothing to do with Japan other than the claim that the material is from there.They are in fact manufactured in China.Also, they are not eligible for return. Read more

These scissors may look decent, but after only using them once I'm left with the worst split ends I've ever had. It's too bad I waited long enough to see the affect it would have on my hair, because now it's too late to return them. Don't waste your money on these! Read more

So I got a Corona Cut and my husband cut my hair. Be careful with the scissors as they are really sharp. My husband cut himself not badly but just a warning to be careful. The scissors cut really well. They didn't have any kind of holder so if you store them be careful when reaching for them. Definitely keep them out of reach of children. Read more

At first looked good, further inspection i.coils feel the blades have been used before and very slight scratches on the handles... but I will use them for home haircuts. Read more
