Preserving your Shears

Our Method

It is important to do your research before handing over your precious hairdressing scissors for sharpening. Opting for a cheaper method could prove to be a costly mistake.

At Hello Scissor Co, our customers’ shears are honed (lapped) not ground! Grinding unfortunately destroys fragile convex edges in seconds and gradually weakens or destroys the blade. Our sharpening method of honing uses slower rotating equipment allowing for more targeted and precise sharpening of both convex and beveled edge shears every time. Our process uses premium micron graded mineral particles to produce a super-fine, consistent finish. Hello’s process is like polishing a car, where only the upper layer of oxidization is removed to bring out the shine without removing and wearing through the paint. The end result is less metal removed, leaving a shear that could last you a lifetime!

We are proud to be one of the only companies in Canada that offers full convex hairdressing scissor sharpening and we will ensure that all convex edges are carefully preserved.
