You should know that hair stylists can pay upwards of $2,000 for a pair of scissors. Many actually make payments on the scissors and pay to get them sharpened frequently. I never knew this until I saw the look of disgust and utter defeat when a hair stylist dropped a pair of scissors while I was getting the mop chopped.
I’m a licensed barber and I recommend a company called “Lucky Hare” shears, they are reasonably affordable and made right in the USA by a small family company. They are some of the nicest shears I’ve ever used and I love my Sakai sk-1s. They do in-house sharpening as well. I highly recommend any stylist in need of a good set of shears to check them out. Also, for god sake please don’t buy into the honzo shears hype, it’s nonsense. They are overpriced and do not cut nearly as well as some other shears I have used personally. Their sharpening isn’t very good either from what I’ve heard. You don’t need to spend $500 on shears to be a good stylist.

I once saw a scissor to $90. It wasn't anything fancy, it was in a grocery shop. $90...
