Scissor sharpening for Sydney hairdressers and barbers. Get your scissors sharpened by Matt Grumley — a Scissorsmith with over 35 years in the industry, and over 100,000 scissors sharpened across Australia.
How it works
- Mail your scissors in. Pop them in a padded envelope or small box and post to ShearGenius. Address details on the booking page.
- We sharpen. Each scissor is dismantled, cleaned, the edge re-set, then reassembled and tension-checked.
- We post them back. Australia-wide return shipping is free.

FAQ
How much does scissor sharpening cost in Sydney?
Pricing is on the sharpening service product page — flat rate per pair, including return shipping anywhere in Australia.
How long does it take?
Once we receive your scissors, turnaround is typically a few business days. Total time end-to-end depends on Australia Post transit between Sydney and ShearGenius.
Do you sharpen all brands?
Yes — every brand of professional hairdressing and barbering scissor, including thinning scissors and texturisers. Damascus, Japanese steel, German steel, generic stainless — all serviced by hand.
Should I get my scissors sharpened or replaced?
If the steel is sound, sharpening restores them. If the metal is worn beyond the convex edge or the pivot is loose past adjustment, a new pair makes more sense. Email a photo and we'll tell you honestly.
