Dog Grooming Scissors FAQ

1. What are the different types of dog grooming scissors?
There are several types of dog grooming scissors, each designed for specific tasks:

Thinning Scissors: These have teeth on both blades, designed for thinning out thick coats without removing too much hair at once. They’re perfect for reducing bulk and achieving a natural finish.

Blending Scissors: These are more commonly referred to as thinners and have one solid blade and one toothed blade. They’re used to blend and smooth areas where different coat lengths meet, like around the face and ears.

Chunkers: Recognised by their large T-shaped teeth, chunkers are used to add texture, remove clipper marks, and shape curly or thick coats.

Curved Scissors: Designed for shaping areas that follow the natural contours of a dog’s body, such as legs, heads, ears, or tails.

2. How do I know which scissors are right for my dog?
The type of scissors you choose depends on the texture, length, and thickness of your dog’s coat.

For thick, bulky coats, thinning scissors or chunkers are ideal.

For longer coats or areas where a smooth transition is needed, blending scissors are perfect.

Curved scissors are great for areas where you need to follow the body’s natural lines, like around the tail or legs.

3. How should I care for my grooming scissors?
To keep your scissors in top condition:

Clean them after every use with a dry cloth to remove hair and oils.

Oil the blades regularly to maintain smooth operation.

Sharpen them as needed. We recommend having them professionally sharpened every 6-12 months, depending on usage.

Store them properly, preferably in a protective case or scissor pouch, to avoid any accidental damage.

4. Can I use regular scissors for dog grooming?
No, regular household scissors are not suitable for dog grooming. Dog grooming scissors are designed with specific blade shapes, materials, and safety features that are essential for working with animal fur. Using regular scissors may cause damage to the fur and result in an uneven or messy cut.

5. How do I prevent my scissors from getting damaged?
To avoid damage:

Never force the scissors closed—especially with chunkers—since excessive pressure can lock the blades and cause the cutting edge to dull or chip.

Always use the right scissors for the task, as using them improperly can cause unnecessary wear.

Be mindful when cutting through mats or tangles, as rough handling can damage the blades.

6. Why are some dog grooming scissors more expensive than others?
The price of grooming scissors can vary depending on several factors:

Material quality: High-quality stainless steel or coated blades are more durable and stay sharp longer.

Brand and craftsmanship: Well-known brands that focus on precision engineering and ergonomic design will usually be more expensive.

Design: Specialised scissors, such as curved or chunker blades, require more intricate design and higher manufacturing standards.

7. How can I tell if my scissors need sharpening?
Signs that your scissors need sharpening include:

Pulling or tugging when cutting through the hair.

The blades not cutting evenly or feeling “blunt.”

You have to use more pressure than usual to cut through hair, which can cause the blades to wear faster.

8. Are there any safety tips for using dog grooming scissors?
Yes, safety is essential when using dog grooming scissors. Here are some tips:

Always be gentle with the scissors. Avoid pressing too hard, as this can cause the blades to lock or result in uneven cuts.

Keep scissors away from your dog’s face and eyes to avoid any accidents.

Use the right type of scissors for each task to ensure smooth, precise cuts and minimise any potential for injury to you or your dog.

9. How do I choose the right scissor length for my grooming needs?
Scissor length typically depends on the size of your dog and the areas you're working on.

Shorter scissors (around 6-7 inches) are good for more detailed work, like around the face, ears, and paws.

Longer scissors (8 inches or more) are better for cutting larger areas of fur, like the body or tail.

10. How do I return or exchange dog grooming scissors?
To ensure your satisfaction, we offer a 14-day return policy for unused scissors in the same condition as when sent to you. Please make sure the scissors are not damaged or used before initiating a return. For any faulty or damaged scissors, please contact us immediately with photographic evidence for assistance.
