Designed Specifically for Left-Handed Professionals

Unlike standard right-handed scissors, the Washi Black Titanium Left-Handed Thinning Scissors are specifically designed for left-handed users.

This dedicated configuration provides a more natural working position for left-handed hairdressers and barbers, supporting improved visibility, control and comfort when carrying out detailed thinning and blending techniques.

35 V-Shaped Teeth for Seamless Results

The scissors feature 35 precision V-shaped teeth designed to create a softer, more seamless result when reducing density.

The shape of the teeth helps guide selected strands during the cutting action, allowing professionals to blend sections and soften visible weight lines without creating an unnecessarily harsh or stepped finish.

Removes Approximately 15–25% of Hair

Washi states that the V-shaped teeth are designed to remove approximately 15–25% of the hair during suitable thinning techniques.

This level of removal makes the scissors useful for controlled refinement, allowing the stylist to gradually adjust density while regularly checking the finished shape.

Ideal for Blending & Softening Lines

Thinning scissors can be invaluable when a finished haircut contains visible weight lines or areas that require a softer transition.

The 35-tooth design allows left-handed professionals to gently blend these sections, helping produce a more natural flow through the haircut.

Controlled Weight Reduction

For thicker or denser hair, carefully reducing selected internal weight can improve movement and manageability without dramatically changing the overall length.

The Washi Black Titanium Left-Handed Thinning Scissors allow professionals to work progressively, removing only the amount of density required for the desired result.

Compact 5.55-Inch Size

The 5.55-inch size provides a compact and manoeuvrable feel, making these scissors particularly useful for detailed texturising and finishing work.

Stylists who prefer a shorter thinning scissor may appreciate the additional sense of control this size provides around smaller or more precise sections.

Semi-Offset Ergonomic Design

The semi-offset handle configuration is designed to support a comfortable hand position during professional cutting.

Combined with the ergonomic handle shape and dedicated left-handed construction, it helps create a more natural working setup for repeated salon use.

Convex Blade Design

The Washi Black Titanium Left-Handed Thinning Scissors feature convex blades designed for smooth, precise cutting performance.

Consistent interaction between the cutting blade and thinning teeth is particularly important when carrying out detailed texturising work, helping support cleaner and more controlled results.

Mixed Japanese 440C Stainless Steel

These professional scissors are made using mixed Japanese 440C stainless steel, selected for its combination of sharpness and durability.

When properly maintained, quality steel helps professional scissors retain reliable cutting performance through regular salon and barbering use.

Excellent Sharpness & Durability

Washi describes these thinning scissors as offering excellent sharpness and durability, helping them meet the demands of professional cutting environments.

Regular cleaning, correct tension and suitable lubrication will help maintain smooth movement and support the longevity of the cutting edges.

Diamond Adjustable Tension Screw System

The scissors include a diamond adjustable tension screw system, allowing professionals to fine-tune the operating tension as required.

Appropriate tension helps the blades and teeth move smoothly together without feeling excessively loose or tight.

Detachable Finger Rest

A detachable finger rest allows the handle setup to be adapted according to individual preference.

This provides additional flexibility for left-handed stylists who like to personalise the feel and balance of their cutting tools.

Long-Lasting Black Titanium Finish

The sleek black titanium colouring provides a distinctive professional finish that complements modern salon and barbering kits.

Washi describes the titanium colouring as long lasting, combining practical professional performance with an understated premium appearance.

Supplied with Professional Accessories

The Washi Black Titanium Left-Handed Thinning Scissors are supplied with a gift box, cleaning cloth and oil tube.

These useful accessories support routine care and provide a convenient way to keep the scissors protected when they are not in use.

Ideal for Professional Finishing Work

These scissors are particularly useful during the finishing stages of a haircut, when the main shape has already been established and the stylist wants to refine density, blend sections or soften the overall finish.

Working gradually allows the effect of each cut to be assessed before more hair is removed.

Suitable for Hairdressers & Barbers

The combination of 35 teeth, a compact size and dedicated left-handed construction makes these scissors a versatile option across salon and barbering environments.

They can be used for suitable thinning, blending, weight reduction and texture refinement techniques where controlled removal is required.

How to Use Washi Black Titanium 5.55" Left Handed Thinning Scissors

1. Complete the main haircut and assess where additional blending or weight reduction is required.
2. Comb and section the hair according to the chosen thinning technique.
3. Hold the scissors naturally in the left hand using the ergonomic semi-offset handles.
4. Position the scissors only in areas where controlled density reduction is required.
5. Use small, deliberate cutting actions rather than repeatedly thinning the same section.
6. Comb through the hair regularly to assess how much weight has been removed.
7. Continue progressively until the desired blend and movement are achieved.
8. After use, remove loose hair from the blades and V-shaped teeth.
9. Wipe the scissors with the supplied cleaning cloth.
10. Apply suitable scissor oil as required and periodically check the tension.
11. Store the scissors safely in the supplied gift box when not in use.

Important: These are sharp professional left-handed hairdressing scissors and should be handled carefully. They are intended specifically for cutting and thinning hair. Work progressively when reducing density, as excessive thinning can permanently alter the balance and shape of a haircut. Avoid dropping the scissors or allowing the cutting surfaces to strike hard objects. Maintain appropriate cleaning, lubrication and tension according to professional scissor-care guidance.
