Using Scissors to Save Stylists’ Wrists

Wrist problems strike stylists at many different stages in their career. Sometimes, students in cosmetology school notice pain right away, while some stylists cut for 30 years before they start to notice tension. Still others never experience ergonomic pain.

Ergonomic hair shears typically have a bent thumb ring to make them more ergonomic, so that your thumb goes in at a more natural angle. This way, you’re not tweaking your thumb when holding your scissors.

All scissors should feel like this – they should be comfortable, and there should be no pain in your wrist when cutting with them or even simply when holding them!

If you’re noticing pain when you cut and hold your scissors, you need to switch to something more ergonomic right away! And if you’re one of those lucky people that hasn’t had wrist problems, it’s still a good idea to invest in a good pair of ergonomic scissors so you can continue to be pain-free!

How do I instruct a barber on what kind of scissors to use to create a spikey hair style? I’m away from my regular hairstylist yet i need a haircut without anyone messing it up. How do i make sure that they cut exactly what i want?

show them a picture. and tell them that the picture is what you want (it shouldn’t be that hard to find one somewhere on the internet)

Barbers/Hairstylists: Help me with a men’s haircut?

admin — Sat, 08 May 2010 22:18:53 +0000

Is it normal for men to get a haircut with different lengths on their sides?

Since I was a teenager, I’ve had my hairdresser do the following: on the sides/back I have her start out at a 4 guard on the clippers, and then blend it up into a 5… (she then does a scissor-cut on top, but this is inconsequencial to the question).

So is this normal, or do most men get just one length on their sides? Will it look better if I got my entire sides/back trimmed to a 4, or is it natural to do the 4 up to a 5 that I have now?

I certainly won’t take offense to any criticism, so please let me know. Just looking for guidance. (And I know this question is written kind of confusing, so let me know if I need to clarify anything).
yes, like a fade i guess. it starts as a 4 and blends up to a 5 on the clipper. if wondering if it’s more common and stylish to just have one length (i.e. a 4 on the clipper) for the entire sides/back? I’ve had the old style since I was a teen, and seeing if I should change it.

well it all depends on what look you are going for. what exactly do you mean about different lengths on sides? do you mean like a fade?
