When it comes to haircutting, the most popular tool is the scissor. Scissors are the basic tool to cut hair, create layers, style bangs and create a desirable look. They are likely the first tool you are introduced to in beauty school and they will forever be in your tool kit until you retire. Most hair professionals are familiar with a scissor that is composed of 2 parts. Each part consists of a finger hole and a blade. When you notch two of these together you get a pair of scissors. There are many different scissor styles, sizes and qualities but the best quality scissors are made of stainless steel and have placed careful attention to the scissor performance as well as the sharpness of the blade. Stylists and barbers usually have more than one scissor. They can have different sizes, different brands and different functions such as texturizing scissors or thinning scissors. But over time and depending on how much any individual scissor is used, the scissor will need to be sharpened by a professional to bring back the cutting quality it once had. When frequently used, the blades lose some of their sharpness and it's possible the hinge (where the two blades meet) needs to be fine-tuned. With special care and attention, a quality scissor can last a lifetime. While maintenance is necessary, it is also inconvenient to have to send in scissors for repair. Scissors could be out of commission for a couple weeks or more depending on the location of the service and turnaround time. Furthermore, it's important to do due diligence when deciding who should service your scissors. Because if left in the wrong hands, the scissors could get ruined, and heaven forbid unusable. There's also a possibility the scissors could get damaged or lost in the mail when shipping to and from the service provider. Scissors are worthy investments that can cost a lot of money and the maintenance paired with downtime reveals some undesirable situations. Fortunately, there is an alternative. Feather Switch Blade Shears are innovative haircutting scissors that eliminate the hassle of sending in your scissors for maintenance, reduces costs, and saves you money in the long term.

With every product it offers, JATAI honors the craft of hairstyling - the creativity, skill and artistry that goes into each and every cut. JATAI understands the tools stylists use, particularly scissors, are essential to not just their success, but their creativity. When it comes to tools, quality counts. That's why JATAI has partnered with leading scissors manufacturer BMAC to launch a new line of scissors exclusive to the brand: JATAI Scissors by BMAC. The JATAI Scissors by BMAC line includes four unique styles in select sizes: the JATAI Tokyo Scissors, JATAI Tokyo Thinning Scissors, JATAI Osaka Scissors and JATAI Kyoto Scissors. Handcrafted in Japan with the strictest attention to detail, the six scissors in the collection are forged from VG-10 grade stainless steel - the highest carbon grade steel available - to provide the sharpest and longest lasting edge possible for a traditionally made scissor.   THE DIFFERENT JATAI SCISSORS BY BMAC As a tribute to the origin of the scissors (and to the founders of JATAI), the scissors are each named after cities in Japan renowned for their artistic, cultural and spiritual significance:   Tokyo Scissors Tokyo is regarded as the most popular city in Japan. A cultural hub attracting visitors from all over the world, the bustling city has everything needed all in one place to get a flavor for the country. The JATAI Tokyo Scissors encompass Tokyo's well-regarded popularity and versatility. Ideal for new stylists and barbers just starting out and building their tool assortment. The most popular and affordable high-performance scissor by BMAC, the JATAI Tokyo Scissors features a top-grade metal offset handle with a single, detachable finger rest and convex blade. The custom streamlined flat contact point creates unobstructed, smooth and balanced pivot action. Available in 5.5" ($360.00) and 6.0" ($380.00).   Texturize, remove weight, volumize, layer, shape and add movement with one tool. Measuring 6", the JATAI Tokyo Thinning Scissors give a 30% cut with 29 teeth to texturize hair. Each tooth has three teeth for added softness, making it easier to create texture and layers. Featuring a top-grade metal straight handle with two detachable finger rests and convex blade, plus a flat contact point for smooth and balanced pivot action. ($375.00) Osaka Scissors While not as popular as Tokyo, Osaka is the second largest city in Japan and has strong traditional values and rich culture, but a slightly more relaxed and care-free vibe than found in other parts of the country. The strong traditional values can be best observed in the attention to detail in Osaka cuisine which is rich and nuanced.  Like the food, JATAI Osaka Scissors exemplify the traditional scissor look with a rich feel and subtle nuances that make handling it comfortable and easy to use. Featuring a slightly offset anatomically designed handle with molded tang and convex blade for a natural fit in the hand. Professional-use pivot action means unobstructed, smooth and balanced cutting and handling. Available in 5.5" ($475.00) and 6.5" ($575.00).   Kyoto Scissors Visitors to Kyoto are mesmerized by its spirituality, delicate and refined nature, and cultural charm. To experience Kyoto is to experience true artistic expression. Refined and experienced artists will immediately notice and appreciate how the JATAI Kyoto Scissors enhance their skills and creativity. This design features the utmost attention to detail, the perfect balance, the smoothest movement. The slightly offset, anatomically designed handle and single detachable finger rest create a natural fit for the hand.
