Which scissors to buy?

[Ellechopchop]

Hi, I have just finished my level 3 nvq and am looking to get some new scissors

Ideally offset or semi offset, and about 5 inch - I ordered the joewell s2 but they were too heavy I thought

I don't really want to spend over about £150 for now until I start making some money
I am considering the jay ones?

Any reccomendations?

Thanks so much

Elle

Cutting edge scissors are the best

I have three; Hakari, Jowell and Passion. The one's by Passion were my least expensive, they are much lighter than the other two and have been a great set of shears.

Edited to add... They can be viewed at Hair & Beauty Salon Supplies, Hairdressing Scissors & Professional Salon Equipment @ CoolBlades Hair & Beauty Wholesalers

When I was in the exact same situation I opted for the Jay 2. They were a mid range and the size and feel suited me. I haven't had any major problems but they have needed sharpening more often than I expected. I like them though. I wanted Joewells but just couldn't get on with the feel of them. X
