Comment on Can I cut my hair with normal scissors? by Kris Kelly

normal scissors for cutting hair is a bad idea. Hair scissors were made to cut hair, regular scissors are meant to cut paper, string, card, things like that.

If you cut your hair with normal scissors you can damage your ends because the blades haven’t been sharpened to cut something as fine as hair. Instead of cutting through hair, you will rip through and the result won’t look very good. I recommend quality hair scissors like the Saki Katana http://www.rylees.co.uk/saki-katana-hairdressing-scissors-set.html they’re ultra sharp and very durable. If you want your hair to look good after cutting it, use scissors that are like the Saki.

I do that all the time, my hair is down to my knees, I SEE no reason why people should spend money or HAIR SCISSORS. Instead I use a 2" embroidery scissors for cutting split ends, even healthy hair like mine have split ends due to normal brushing & styling.

Many people in ASIA where they have the healthiest hair, don’t own HAIR SCISSORS.

No, don’t do it! I bought a top of the line pair of scissors 10 years ago that cost $80 US and I still use them. I cut my own hair, my husbands and friends hair. The key to a good haircut is an excellent pair of scissors. The most precise ones have 5" length blades that grip the hair as you cut, this prevents the hair from sliding as the cut is made. They also will stay shape for a long time, and sharpen up beautifully. If you invest in a good pair you won’t regret it, they will last for decades- and remember the cost of a good haircut is more than 30 euros, right?

Never use your hair-cuttting scissors to cut anything but hair!

I have used normal scissors and it always turns out fine!
I’ve done it at least 20 times at this stage on both mine and my sisters hair

I tried to buy actual hairdressers scissors and some of them were like 200 euro.
I think you are better off just buying a pair out of Boots.
I think mine cost me less than 5 euro.
But normal scissors are just as good.

I always cut it and then thin out the ends by cutting into it horizontally.

If you look on YouTube you’ll get some good tips!

I hope that helps x

Comment on If you cut your Pubic hair with scissors, will the hairs grow back darker and thicker? by Amanda

No, it won’t affect it at all. Shaving won’t make it darker or thicker either, it just looks like it because it will grow back with a blunt end instead of a tapered end.

Comment on Why can’t you use any other types of scissors when cutting your hair at home other than shears? by Miranda

Well for starters, shears are made for cutting hair. They are sharper and a bit thinner than like safety scissors. Safety scissors have a blunt edge and won't give your hair a nice clean cut. It will look kinda choppy and like messy I guess you could say. If you don't care about the possibility of your bangs looking janky them. I'm not saying that safety scissors won't work. They will I know for a fact(: my aunt cut my sisters hair with kitchen scissors once:P but she's a professional hair dresser. Just take your time if your gonna use them!!(:

Yes you can, but it wont be as neat and it may hurt. Also you have to make sure the normal scissors are relatively clean before using them.

Comment on What fate should befall a Gadaffi-hair-wearing stylist who decides to overuse thinning shears? by titou

Congratulations. Your towing company is going to be featured in a cable-TV reality show. Every city in the United States will soon have it’s tow-truck reality show; and a look like your new look sounds perfect. Then you can reconcile with the stylist and even surprise him with a permanent job maintaining your do.

If it doesn’t work out, I suggest revenge. How about waterboarding the stylist then wrapping in sheets? Spray with superglue and install in any New York/Chelsea contemporary art gallery. The camouflage will never be suspected and you’ll get away with murder.

Regular scissors are dull, and won't cut your hair properly.
