parts pf
scissors are called hair shapes. The modern razor llike hair shapes has a
replaceable blade and a protective handle. With the opened handle. The
back of the guarded blade is held by the thumb between the pivot and
the tang. The two middle fingers rest and the tang, an either side of the
handle.

Thinning scissors. May be held in the same way as cutting scissors
Clippers. Hand clippers are operated by pushing the handles together while
electric clippers are operated by a motor. The distance between the blade
points and the spacing of the teeth determines how closely the hair can be cut.
Combs. Suitable for cutting are thin and pliable comb, with both fine and
coarse teeth. Fine teeth allow the hair to be controlled and closely cut. Coarse
teeth allow for repeated combing and positioning of the hair.
Mirrors. These are useful while cutting the patron’s hair so that the shape can
clearly be seen over the shoulder around the neck and remain firmly in
position

firmly in position.
