Grace 4.5". The detail blade for finishing, point work and close-in cutting.
The Grace is the shortest blade in the line. 4.5" Cobalt Alloy with a mountain blade profile — the micro-serrated convex grind that grips fine, slippery, or coloured hair where standard convex blades push and fold. Built for stylists who specialise in detail work, finishing, fringe cutting and close-in technical work where reach is a hindrance.
Best For
- Fringe cutting, ear and neckline detail, fine finishing work
- Close-in technical cutting on fine, slippery or coloured hair
- Stylists specialising in cuts where blade length over 5.0" gets in the way
Who is this scissor for?
Senior stylists with established detail technique. Stylists building a specialist kit alongside a daily 5.5" or 6.0". Educators teaching fringe and detail work. Curly-hair specialists doing close-in finishing.
Aaron's Professional Verdict
From Aaron Davis — Master Hairdresser, 35+ years behind the chair, the face of ShearGenius in salons:
“The Grace is the scissor I hand a stylist who's been forcing a 5.5” to do detail work it doesn't want to do. 4.5” gives you reach control on fringes, ear lines, and finishing — you're not fighting the blade length, you're working WITH it. The mountain profile grips fine hair the way a serrated edge grips, but cuts clean. If detail work is part of your daily, this is the second scissor in your kit.”
