About Haircrane
Unlike a traditional straight hairdressing scissor, Haircrane is designed with a patented angle. This keeps the wrist in a natural position while cutting, resulting in less tension and more control, noticeable throughout your entire body. With a traditional straight scissor, the wrist often bends unconsciously, which over time can lead to strain in the wrist, shoulder, neck, and back.
Yes. Many hairdressers switch to Haircrane after experiencing complaints from prolonged use of a traditional straight hairdressing scissor. The ergonomic design helps reduce tension in the wrist, arm, and shoulder.
