Have you ever used a curling iron or hair wand and then accidentally burned your fingers while using it? Or have you ever cut yourself using a sharp scissor when haircutting? If you’re a hairstylist or barber that answer is a definite ‘yes.’ And if you’re a home user that answer is likely a ‘yes.’ Just a slip of the hand or a slip of the tool can lead to annoying pain and discomfort for your hands. Then, for a few days you’ll have to use a bandage to keep it clean and safe. What a pain (no pun intended)! If only you could prevent that from happening.
Well, luckily for you, Jatai Shield products can do the trick. Jatai Heat Shields and Jatai Snip Shields are two essential products for hair professionals and home users alike. They are designed to protect the skin while haircutting and hair styling while maintaining the maneuverability of the fingers and hands.
Jatai Heat Shields are specially designed to protect the skin from the heat generated by hair styling tools such as wands, curling irons and flat irons. They are made of high-quality material that’s heat resistant and durable. The bottom layer is thicker and more resistant to heat than the top side. In fact, the bottom side can handle 450 degrees F. They are latex-free and machine washable. They stretch and stay snug all day and have closed tips to ensure the heat does not burn the fingertips! Jatai Heat Shields are available in two different sizes (S/M and M/L) to fit different size fingers and come in black only.
Jatai Heat Shields come with 3 shields that fit on the opposite hand holding the tool. Meant for the thumb, index and middle finger, they can be used on different fingers as long as they stay snug. While gloves can hinder the dexterity and movement of the hands, finger shields allow for maximum finger flexibility to be able to perform as desired.
Jatai Snip Shields, on the other hand, are designed to protect the skin while hair snipping. They are made of durable material that’s easy to clean and maintain. The shields are designed to fit comfortably over the fingers, providing a barrier between the skin and cutting tool, protecting the skin from accidental cuts and nicks. Whether you’re cutting other’s hair or your own, they will aid in preventing painful cuts from scissors especially when point cutting. They are also heat resistant, latex-free and machine washable. They stretch and stay snug all day.
Included are 2 finger Snip Shields made for the index and middle finger. The S/M only comes in red while the M/L only comes in grey. The fingertips are open to maintain a sense of touch and feel. They even provide extra protection over bandages.
Both Jatai Heat Shields and Jatai Snip Shields are designed with comfort and safety in mind. They are lightweight, easy to use, and provide a barrier between the skin and hair styling or cutting tools, ensuring the skin is protected from accidental cuts, burns, and heat damage.
Jatai Heat Shields and Jatai Snip Shields are essential for stylists, barbers and home users, providing protection and comfort during haircutting and styling processes. You can check them out here as individual products or combo pack.
