Shears were in use a few centuries earlier, but it was later that the cutting tools included a place for fingers to slide through. Clippers and scissors can seem like simple tools, but they are in nearly every home and are vital for many trades. Keeping scissors sharp is a fantastic way to ensure the convenient tool remains as functional as possible.

Scissor Sharpening for Hair Stylists and Babers
Rarely do people walk into a hair salon or a barbershop and tell the professionals to do whatever they want. Most clients have specific ideas regarding how they want to look. Dull clippers and scissors cannot produce precise hairstyles. Instead, poorly maintained tools can break or pull the hair. Broken hair may need an additional cut to make it appear healthy again. Very few people will return to a salon or visit a barber who damaged their hair so much takes months to grow it back to the length they wanted.
Dull cutting tools can also make a haircut uncomfortable. The scissors can tug the hair as the stylist works. People that feel pain during a styling session or have a sore scalp when leaving a salon may look elsewhere when they need another haircut. The fast and easy task of having scissors sharpened can avoid these negative results.
Paying a professional to sharpen quality shears and clippers costs a fraction of what professional scissors cost. It makes sense to retain more profit by improving existing tools with a simple maintenance visit to a sharpening pro than to spend money on new scissors or clipping blades.

Sharpening at Beauty Schools on Location
Schools do not need to worry about customer retention, but they need to provide their students with expert guidance. Accurate judging of the styling skills of a student cannot happen if the student must use poorly maintained equipment. Schools build reputations based on the quality of the people who receive their degrees. The use of dull scissors or other tools will not train the students to take care of their equipment when on their own.
Schools must consider sharpening services as a part of their upkeep. Most of the tools within the building will receive nearly constant use while classes are in session. Connecting with a sharpening service like ProChef NY can allow the school to develop a maintenance schedule to keep all their blades in perfect condition.
Sharpening for Seamstresses and Fabric Artists
Anyone who works with fabric knows how easy it is to dull the blades on their scissors. The tools lose their edge quickly when they come into contact with sewing pins or are used to cut paper (like a sewing pattern). Once dulled, it is impossible to cut a clean edge in cloth. Dull fabric scissors may not work on anything. It is common to see references to DIY sharpening tricks like cutting aluminum foil to sharpen scissors. In some instances, the tip may help, but it is also equally possible that the process will ruin the scissors. Anyone relying on their tools to help them earn a living cannot take the chance. Professional sharpening takes only a few minutes and is an affordable service.
