Blades bent out of shape. Cuts skin not hair.
Mine had blades bent out of shape exactly like in the photo someone else here shared. As a result, it was about as effective at cutting my hair as safety scissors. As in, it didn’t cut anything. However, the blades are still sharp. So it WILL cut your skin; it just wont cut hair. Couldn’t be bothered to return it so I use it to cut tags and packaging. Do not use it on hair.

The worst
These scissors were so dull they barely cut air. Very disappointing and a waste of money.

Great For Personal Use
I Bought These Because I Was Over Paying $80+ For A Haircut. I Used Them For The Second Time Today And They're Perfect For At Home Trims/Cuts. If I Could Change Anything, I'd Make Them Sharper.

The Most Ineffective Scissors
I've Tried Several Haircutting Scissors From Different Brands And Retailers, And These Are The Worst. They Look Sleek, But They Don't Cut. Not Even Tiny Buts Of Hair At A Time. The Hair Just Goes Between The Blades And The Blades Don't Cut The Hair.

We use on the dogs
We use these to trim the hair around our dogs’ eyes between grooming sessions. They work great, are sharp enough and have held up well.

HORRIBLE
These are absolutely horrible. As you can see in the photo, there is a large gap between the blades causing the hair to bend around instead of getting cut. I didn’t expected a whole lot from $13 shears, but I did expect more from Japonesque. What a pain in the….

Almost useless
Finger holes are small. They will only cut a few hairs at a time, and actually pull hairs instead of cut them. Definitely not useful for barbering or a full hair cut.

It works really well
A bit pricey but worth it. Since the pandemic, i cut my hair at home. I doubt I'll ever go back to a salon!!

Nice
Good heft, appear well made. Not light or flimsy. Some friction between the blades, but I think due to being built strongly. Has a cool black finish to them. Finger holes aren’t huge: so if you have large fingers your may have a tougher time with these
