Tool caring
One of the most important aspects of your job will be caring for the tools that you use each day. Hair shears are sturdy, but they need to be maintained well in order to last for years. The last thing you want is to have to replace a beloved pair of shears because you weren’t careful with them.
The good news is that keeping the shears in top shape is fairly simple, as long as you follow a few important guidelines. You should always be aware of what you are using these shears for and how well they are doing their job.
Here are some tips to help you out:
- Adjust the tension: The shears need to have enough tension to cut hair well. At the end of each shift you should check the tension and make any necessary adjustments to get them ready for the next day.
- Keep them closed: When your hair shears are not being used and are set aside, you need to make sure that they are left closed and not open. This will allow the blades to protect each other, as any possible nick or dent will require them to be sharpened.
- Sharpen with a service center: If your shears need to be sharpened, make sure that you only send them to a manufacturer’s recommended service center. These places will provide the best possible results and ensure your shears are sent back in great shape.
