Maintain shears to prevent nicks
Keep shears cleaned by wiping them down with a microfiber cloth and alcohol.
Keep them stored in a closed position so the edges are not exposed.
Only cut the things the shears are intended for i.e. Hair for hair shears, fabric for fabric shears.
Have your shears sharpened by a professional when they start to dull.
How can you tell if shears are sharp?
Shears are sharp when they cut smoothly with little resistance.
How long do shears last?
Shears should last many years when properly maintained.
