BLENDING & THINNING SHEARS INFORMATION

A thinning shear has teeth on both blades and
A Blending Shear has teeth on one blade and a solid cutting edge on the other.

A Thinning or Blending shear can make or break your finished coat!

"KEY_HOLE" BLENDING SHEARS.

With a regular blending shear you constantly have to clear hair that has become jammed in between the teeth.
uncut hair is jammed in between the teeth by a sharp blade.
The hair is bruised and damaged.  In two or three days, the hair will split.  leaving the hair rough to the touch, limp & lifeless.  You the Stylist, despite your skills, will get the blame.

The 'Key-Hole" Blender has 'Y' shaped teeth and holes at the base that allow the un-cut hair to slide through .......  ................ un-harmed.

Both blades on TALYN Shears are concave, giving a Clean Precise cut with no splitting, bruising or damage.
 
These Blenders are sharpened at 50 degrees, which is 4 times sharper than regular blades. 
The steel on these shears is uncommonly hard as they would crumble at regular hardness.

And that's why they have a 'Lifetime Warranty'

This design took us 4 years to perfect and is another proud "TALYN" first.

"TALYNER"  THINNING SHEAR

The "TALYNER" is unique and is designed for zero damage to the hair.

With thinners, there is a circular motion of the blades, while closing. This is not as pronounced from the middle towards the tips, but excessive near the screw and on a regular Thinner, will crunch or rip the hair and damage it. 
Once hair is bruised, it will split 2 hours to 2 days later causing a "Frizz" and a "Flop" to the coat.

The teeth on the TALYNER start off straight at the tips and as they near the pivot area, they become more and more curved. This is to follow the curved movement when you open or close the blades.

The teeth on one blade are lengthened to 'comb-up' the hair and let the coat fall through without damage. The teeth on the other blade have been shortened to come in and just clip the hair, without crossing the teeth on the other blade. No Bruising!

These Thinners are sharpened at 50 degrees, which is 4 times sharper than regular blades. 
The steel on these shears is uncommonly hard as they would crumble at regular hardness.

And that's why they have a 'Lifetime Warranty'

The pivot is a unique Ball-Bearing arrangement which flexes and brings the blades in precisely. Again, No Bruising! 

This design took us 9 years to perfect and is another proud "TALYN" first.

The different uses for a Blending Shear and a Thinning Shear.

Blending Shears (One toothed blade and one solid blade) are used for blending hair and finishing.  A Blender is usually not used more than 1/2 to 3/4 of an inch from the tips of the hair. This shear is not for getting rid of bulk or volume and not for working deep into the hair.

Thinning Shears (Have teeth on both blades) are usually used for thinning out and reducing bulk. They can be used in longer hair and generally are not used for finishing.

Texturizing Shears have larger teeth or teeth skipped or grouped in patterns and will give different design effects on the hair, depending on the layout of the teeth.
