What We Sharpen
- Convex/hamaguri professional shears (stylist & barber)
- Thinning/Texturizing shears (14–40 tooth, chunkers, notching)
- Left-hand and swivel-thumb models
- Most micro-serrated barber shears (we preserve serration where designed)
- Curved and specialty profiles (case-by-case)
Our Comprehensive Process
- Intake & Inspection – Check edge type, ride line integrity, set, tips, pivot, washers, bumpers, and finger rest.
- Disassembly & Disinfection – Hygienic teardown of both blades; sanitize components.
- Worn Parts Replacement – Replace washers, bumpers, and other wear items as needed to restore performance.
- Edge Restoration (Factory-Matched) – Minimal material removal; restore the original convex profile or micro-serration spec.
- Inside Work (“Seal”) – Re-establish a straight, continuous ride line and inside hollow for proper blade “seal.”
- Set, Balance & Tension – Correct blade set/radius, align tips, and dial in true working tension.
- Reassembly & Lubrication – Proper torque on the pivot; professional scissor oil at the joint.
- Performance Testing – Wet and dry test media to confirm silent glide, no push/fold, and clean snip to the tips.
Turnaround & Guarantee
2–3 day turnaround from the day your shears arrive. Every service is backed by our Satisfaction Guarantee—if your shears aren’t cutting perfectly, contact us and we’ll make it right.
Shipping Instructions (Mail-In)
- Prep Your Shears – Engage the blade guard if you have one. If not, wrap tips with cardboard and tape; then wrap the entire shear in bubble wrap.
- Include Your Details – Name, order number, return address, email/phone, brand/model, and any issues (nicks, pull, push, tension concerns).
