Lockdown is the perfect time to cut yourself the hair !
Not only does it occupy, but it also boosts the morale of taking care of yourself.
The problem is that maintaining your hair like a pro is not done in a hurry...
...but, above all, it can't be done with just any material.
To avoid a catastrophic result, precautions must be taken.
The mistake everyone makes when cutting their hair at home is using the wrong pair of scissors . Explanations:
Unhappy! Never use your old kitchen scissors, those used to cut paper or plastic.
Why ? Because they are absolutely not suitable for your fragile tips.
Unlike a pair of professional barber scissors, their blades are not sharp enough.
But that's not all, because the grip of the kitchen scissors is more than bad...
Well-known professional hairstylist Garret Bryant explains that it's down to the difference in blade sizes:
"Kitchen scissors have wider blades, so they make it more difficult to be precise in cutting the hair.
On the contrary, the scissors designed for this have thinner blades" .
In addition, a pair of kitchen scissors has a wide handle that makes it difficult to hold it properly.
On the contrary, the hairdresser's scissors are more compact and therefore more ergonomic.
The movements of the hand are then freer and the haircut is done with fluidity.
You wouldn't think of cooking with a bad knife, would you? Well, it's the same with cutting your hair.
The quality of the blade is essential:"When you try to cut hair with kitchen shears, the dull edge will push the hair to the side, because it's not as sharp" .
The result is then inevitably disappointing:an uneven cut, damaged tips, cut unevenly with the addition of new split ends.
If you don't have hairdressing scissors yet, now is the time to equip yourself!
Why ? Because with a little practice, you will be able to make great savings throughout the year.
Yes, it is (very) expensive to go to the hairdresser all year round. Especially when the whole family goes...
I haven't been going there for more than 10 years! It saves money, I can tell you.
So if you cut your own hair at home, it's time to invest in professional scissors!
So which hairdressing scissors to choose? I recommend those that I have been using for 3 years.
But if you're looking for less, this pair of professional scissors is more affordable and just as effective.
