Shear Splurge

From left to right: 1. Fromm Forever Collection 2. Joewell Shears 3. Kamisori Shears
I'm in the market for new hair shears. I came across these and they were intriguing. The Fromm Forever Shear Collection are made of Japenese steel. With the Forever Sharp Warranty you never have to sharpen your Forever Shear. Just give Fromm your used Forever Shear for a brand new one for only $40. This Forever Shear Collection is a limited edition set that includes not only a Forever Shear but also a FREE Thinner, Razor, Shear Case, Spray Bottle and Neck Duster. The set retails for $149.99. Then I saw the $419 shears by Joewell. Their major selling point: they are made of a cobalt based alloy and are hand honed by master engineers. Then there were these $2,802 Kamisori Venom hair cutting shears. Unless you're a stylist and you specialize in cutting, I can't really see why anyone would pay that much for a pair of scissors.


HOW MUCH ARE YOU WILLING TO PAY FOR A GOOD PAIR OF HAIR SHEARS?
Ummm, $0. That's what hair salons are for.
No more than $25
No more than $50
No more than $100
No more than $200
No more than $500
No more than $1000
Over $1000, money is no object where my hair is concerned

  1. When I bought my shears, I think I got them from either Sally or the drug store and though I can't remember exactly how much they were, they had to be around $20. And I'm pretty satisfied with them. Of course, I know little of the quality of hair shears. When I used to cut my hair in high school and college, I used a pair of office scissors, and a coworker told me that I was going to ruin my hair.

  2. There is an obvious difference in the results of a $25 pair of shears and $100 pair of shears. You'd have to try it for yourself to really see the results, but if you're happy with yours... you can't miss what you don't know.
