Why Choose the Kyone 480 Cutting Scissors?
The Kyone 480 is a favorite for hairstylists starting their career or in training. Though these belong to Kyone’s entry-range, they are far from basic. The scissors are developed from the foundational student models, upgraded with harder steel and refined grinding, resulting in an enhanced performance ideal for everyday salon tasks.
The ergonomic handle ensures natural hand positioning while reducing fatigue during long sessions. The integrated flat screw adds to the refined construction, providing a smooth, reliable tension system that supports effortless cutting.
Smooth Cutting and Light Slicing
Unlike many entry-level models, the Kyone 480 allows for more than just simple blunt cuts. Thanks to its convex and hollow-ground blade design, it enables a light form of slicing, giving stylists a touch of flexibility in their techniques. Whether you’re shaping layers, trimming fringe, or doing everyday salon maintenance cuts, these scissors will support a consistent, professional result.
Despite their lower price, these scissors outperform many tools in higher ranges, making them the ideal companion for stylists who are learning or need a reliable backup pair.
Designed for Beginners, Built for Daily Use
What makes the 480 stand out is the combination of beginner-friendly construction and professional-grade features:
- Smooth, forgiving motion for easy adaptation
- Comfortable grip that trains proper technique
- Reliable cutting edge with improved blade wear
- Lightweight and balanced for better control
It’s a great first scissor, but also an excellent backup tool for experienced stylists who want precision on a budget.
Left-Handed Option Available
The Kyone 480 is also available in a left-handed version (5.5” and 6.0”). These are not converted models, but specially designed for left-handed professionals, with mirrored ergonomics and reversed blade construction for optimal use.
Maintenance and Care
To ensure your 480 scissors stay in great condition:
-
Wipe the blades clean after each cut
-
Apply a drop of scissors oil weekly to the blades
-
Avoid harsh cleaning chemicals that could harm the steel
-
Always store in a dry padded case or holster
