HOW WE SHARPEN

We provide mail in scissor and clipper blade sharpening services using professional grade machines and tools that have been specifically designed for sharpening scissors and clipper blades. Sharpening by mail is a convenient and reliable way to get your scissors and clippers working again quickly.

Sharpen By Mail technicians have been certified by the National Beauty Tool Sharpeners Guild (NBTSG) and multiple shear manufacturers.

Sharpening is performed using one of our professional sharpening systems depending on the type of scissors to be sharpened: Ez-Vex, Hira-To, or Twice As Sharp with the inside ride on convex shears sharpened by hand using Japanese style waterstones. Corrugations and serrations are created using the Corru-gator system or by hand using special tooling jigs and diamond coated files.
