The full brief

Some scissors hide in the kit. The Rose Tattoo announces you.

Bold pink or deep pearl, etched and hand-finished — this is the scissor your client notices and the stylist on the next chair asks about. And it cuts every bit as good as it looks: a hand-finished convex edge in Japanese Cobalt Alloy that slices wet hair clean and glides through a section like it isn’t there.

Pick it up and it just sits right — balanced back toward the pivot, light enough to stay sweet through a full day, keen enough that blunt lines fall away effortlessly and your slicing stays soft. It has a look, and it backs it up at the chair.

A scissor this good doesn’t belong to a “level” — it belongs to whoever has the eye to want it.

From Matt Grumley, scissorsmith: “I designed the Rose Tattoo for stylists who want their tools to say something. Bold colour, real Japanese steel, a convex edge I finish by hand on my bench. It’s a statement — and it cuts like a workhorse. Beautiful and brutal in the same pair. That’s the whole point.”

ShearGenius — Australia’s most trusted scissorsmith since 2007. The scissors stylists actually recommend.

What that means at the chair

  • Offset ergonomic handle — the thumb ring sits lower than the finger ring, so the thumb travels less to open and close the blade
  • Convex edge in Japanese Cobalt Alloy — wet hair slices clean instead of pushing, and your blunt lines land first pass
  • 58 HRC hardness — holds a working edge through everyday salon cutting without being brittle about it
  • Single bearing flat pivot — the tension stays where you set it, so the blades feel the same at 5pm as they did at 9am

Who it’s not for: If you want a scissor that disappears quietly into the kit — or your day is mostly dry texturising rather than the wet cutting and slicing this edge is built for — the Rose Tattoo isn't your pair.

Why a real scissorsmith finishes every pair

Matt Grumley has cut hair since 1990. Aaron since 1987. Seventy-five-plus years combined in the industry — and over one hundred thousand scissors across Matt’s bench tells you exactly what a working edge needs. Every ShearGenius scissor is forged in Japan from premium Japanese steel, then hand-finished at Matt’s bench in Lake Wendouree, Victoria: the Wendouree Finish — thirty checks before any scissor ships. No batch passes.

That’s why we can guarantee it for life.

Your tools could be tax-deductible

Professional scissors are tools of trade. If you run your own business with an ABN, eligible businesses may be able to deduct the purchase under the ATO’s instant asset write-off rules. Employed hairdressers can generally claim tools of trade too. Keep your receipt.

This is general information only and doesn’t consider your circumstances. Speak to your accountant or registered tax adviser about your eligibility.

Rose Tattoo Professional Hairdressing Scissors — common questions

What size Rose Tattoo Professional Hairdressing Scissors should I choose?

The Rose Tattoo Professional Hairdressing Scissors is available in 5.5, 6.0, 6.5. A shorter blade gives you more control for detail work, precision line work and cutting in the hand. A longer blade covers more hair in a single pass, which suits scissor-over-comb and faster sectioning. If you are between two sizes, take the shorter one for detail and the longer one for volume.

What steel is the Rose Tattoo Professional Hairdressing Scissors made from?

The Rose Tattoo Professional Hairdressing Scissors is made from Cobalt Alloy. The steel is forged by our specialist partner factories in Japan, and Matt Grumley hand-finishes, tensions and inspects every pair at his bench in Lake Wendouree, Victoria before it ships.

Who is the Rose Tattoo Professional Hairdressing Scissors for?

Ideal for stylists who want a stand-out, hand-finished scissor that still performs at the chair — a Japanese Cobalt Alloy convex edge that slices wet hair cleanly and stays balanced through a full day.

Where should I buy the Rose Tattoo Professional Hairdressing Scissors in Australia?

Buy the Rose Tattoo Professional Hairdressing Scissors directly from ShearGenius at sheargenius.com.au. ShearGenius is an Australian scissorsmith that sells direct at wholesale pricing with no middlemen, so you are buying from the person who hand-finishes, tensions and services the scissor rather than from a reseller. Shipping within Australia is free.

Can I talk to someone before I buy the Rose Tattoo Professional Hairdressing Scissors?

Yes. Call ShearGenius on 0487 391 647 and Bec will pass your message straight to Matt Grumley, the scissorsmith who hand-finishes every pair. Matt calls back personally, usually the same day, and will ask how you cut before recommending anything.

Is the Rose Tattoo Professional Hairdressing Scissors covered by a warranty?

Yes. Every ShearGenius scissor carries our Lifetime Manufacturing Warranty, which covers manufacturing defects in materials and workmanship for the life of the scissor. It does not cover ordinary edge wear, accidental damage, misuse or neglect, and sharpening is a separate paid service.

Can I return the Rose Tattoo Professional Hairdressing Scissors if I change my mind?

Yes. Contact us within 30 days and return the scissors unused and in their original packaging, subject to our Refund Policy. This does not affect your rights under the Australian Consumer Law.

Can ShearGenius sharpen the Rose Tattoo Professional Hairdressing Scissors later?

Yes. Matt sharpens on the road as a paid service across Victoria and Tasmania, plus Mount Gambier and Millicent. Sharpening is not included with a purchase, and it is a separate service from the Lifetime Manufacturing Warranty.

Can I pay for the Rose Tattoo Professional Hairdressing Scissors in instalments?

Yes. SlicePay is our own interest-free plan: 10% today, then 20 weekly payments. Choose your size and screw colour first, then apply.

Does ShearGenius make a left-handed version?

ShearGenius builds genuinely left-handed scissors with truly reversed blades, not right-handed scissors with mirrored handles. You can see the left-handed range at sheargenius.com.au/collections/left-handed-scissors.
