SlicePay: How Hairdressers and Barbers Can Own Premium Scissors Without the Upfront Cost

One of the most common things I hear from hairdressers is that they want better scissors but can't justify the upfront spend — especially apprentices, newer stylists, or anyone coming off a quiet period. It's a genuine barrier, and I understand it.

That's why we created SlicePay.

What Is SlicePay?

SlicePay is ShearGenius's own payment plan — interest-free, no credit checks, no finance company involved. It's a simple weekly payment arrangement made directly with us.

Here's how it works:

Choose your scissors. Pick any ShearGenius model from our full range.

Pay 10% upfront. A small deposit to get started — that's it.

Pay the rest weekly over 20 weeks. The remaining balance is split into 20 equal weekly payments. No interest. No fees. No surprises.

Get your scissors immediately. Once your SlicePay plan is set up, we express post your scissors straight away. You don't wait — you start cutting with better tools from day one.

Why We Do It This Way

We don't use a third-party finance provider because we don't want to. Those companies charge you interest, charge us fees, and add friction to a process that should be simple. SlicePay is a direct arrangement between you and ShearGenius — the same way everything we do is direct.

I've been selling scissors directly to hairdressers for over 35 years. I know the industry runs on trust and relationships. SlicePay is an extension of that — we front you the scissors because we stand behind the product and the people we sell to.

Who SlicePay Is For

SlicePay works particularly well for:

Apprentices moving from entry-level scissors into something that will actually support their development and last them through their career.

Experienced stylists who want to upgrade their main pair, add a specialist scissor for texture work, or replace a pair that's beyond repair.

Barbers building out their kit with quality tools across different lengths and styles.

Salon owners equipping a team member or adding to their house kit.
