Sutori Kaze 6.0″ pivot and thinning teeth, render

Thinning scissors

Takes out bulk and opens up texture in thick or dense hair. It isn’t made for cutting a line, so it works alongside Shinobi or Zen.

About 30% per cut

Each cut takes about 30% of the hair in the section, so you take weight out a little at a time and check it between passes.

Questions

Which Sutori is for me?

Shinobi 5.0″ for precision and detail work, Zen 5.5″ for everyday cutting, Kaze 6.0″ for texture and weight removal. Kaze is a thinning scissor, so it works alongside one of the other two.

Where do you ship, and how long does it take?

To Portugal and every other EU country. We ship within 1 to 2 working days, and in mainland Portugal it usually arrives 1 to 3 working days later. The cost is shown at checkout, and shipping is free from €350.

Can I return it?

Consumers can withdraw within 14 days of delivery, as the law provides. Professional customers can return unused scissors within 14 days. The full conditions are in the returns policy.

When and where should I sharpen it?

When the blade starts to push the hair instead of cutting it. Take it to a specialist in hair scissors: Shinobi has a convex edge, which needs someone who works on convex edges. Every sharpening removes steel, so only sharpen when it needs it.

What is Lifetime Care?

A maintenance programme for the first 130 units: 50 Shinobi, 50 Zen and 30 Kaze. It covers inspection, cleaning, tension adjustment and sharpening when normal wear makes it necessary. Shipping to and from Sutori is paid by the owner. The full terms are on the warranty page.

Is there a left-handed version?

Not yet. Left-handed Sutori scissors are on the way. Sign up on the left-handed page and we’ll let you know when they arrive.

How do I set the tension?

With the key in the box. Hold the scissors by the finger ring, tip up, open the other blade until it’s level and let it go. It should fall most of the way and stop just before closing. If it closes completely, tighten a little. If it barely moves, loosen it.
