35 V-Shaped Teeth for Seamless Results
The Washi Black Titanium Thinning Scissors feature 35 precision V-shaped teeth designed to deliver smooth, controlled thinning and blending.
The tooth design helps guide and grip selected sections of hair as the scissors close, allowing the stylist to reduce density while creating a softer transition through the haircut.
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 provides a useful level of controlled weight reduction, allowing professionals to refine density progressively rather than removing too much hair at once.
Ideal for Blending & Softening
Visible weight lines can sometimes remain after the main shape of a haircut has been established. Thinning scissors allow the stylist to soften these areas and create a more natural-looking transition.
The 35-tooth configuration makes the Washi Black Titanium Thinning Scissors particularly useful for detailed finishing and seamless blending work.
Controlled Bulk Reduction
For clients with thicker or denser hair, removing selected internal weight can help improve movement and manageability while maintaining the overall length and shape.
These scissors give professionals greater control over how much hair is removed, making them useful for subtle refinement rather than aggressive thinning.
Compact 5.55-Inch Size
The 5.55-inch length provides a compact, manoeuvrable feel suited to detailed professional work.
This size can be particularly appealing to stylists who prefer a slightly shorter thinning scissor for greater precision and control around specific areas of the haircut.
Semi-Offset Ergonomic Handles
The semi-offset handle design is created to support a more natural hand position during professional cutting.
Combined with the ergonomic handle shape, it helps provide comfortable control during repeated use throughout busy salon appointments.
Convex Blade Design
The scissors feature convex blades, designed to produce a smooth, precise cutting action.
In professional thinning scissors, accurate interaction between the cutting blade and the toothed side is important for consistent performance and a cleaner finish.
Mixed Japanese 440C Stainless Steel
The Washi Black Titanium Thinning Scissors are made using mixed Japanese 440C stainless steel.
This steel is selected to provide the combination of sharpness and durability required from a professional cutting tool when correctly cared for and maintained.
Excellent Sharpness & Durability
Professional scissors need to maintain smooth, reliable performance through frequent salon use. Washi describes these scissors as providing excellent sharpness and durability, supporting accurate thinning and blending across regular appointments.
Routine maintenance remains important to preserve their cutting action and overall condition.
Diamond Adjustable Tension Screw
A diamond adjustable tension screw system allows the scissor tension to be adjusted as required.
Correct tension helps the blades and teeth move together smoothly and efficiently, while also allowing the stylist to adapt the feel of the scissors to their preference.
Detachable Finger Rest
The scissors include a detachable finger rest, allowing professionals to personalise the handle configuration according to their preferred cutting style.
This small adjustment can help improve comfort and control for stylists who use thinning scissors extensively throughout the working day.
Long-Lasting Black Titanium Finish
The sleek black titanium colouring gives these scissors a distinctive, understated professional appearance.
Washi describes the finish as long lasting, making it a stylish choice for hairdressers who prefer modern black tools within their cutting kit.
Supplied with Professional Accessories
The Washi Black Titanium 5.55" Thinning Scissors include a gift box, cleaning cloth and oil tube.
These accessories provide a convenient starting point for storage and routine care, helping keep the scissors clean and operating smoothly between uses.
Ideal for Salon Finishing Work
These thinning scissors are particularly useful towards the final stages of a haircut, when the overall shape has been established and the stylist is refining density, movement and blend.
Working gradually allows the stylist to assess the effect after each section and avoid unnecessary over-thinning.
Suitable for Hairdressers & Barbers
The versatile 35-tooth configuration makes the Washi Black Titanium Thinning Scissors suitable for a range of professional cutting environments.
Whether used for salon cutting, barbering, blending or finishing work, they provide controlled texture reduction in a compact professional format.

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