Young Genius Left Handed Hairdressing Scissors

The Young Genius Left-Handed Scissors give left-handed apprentices and students the right tool from their very first day — a genuine left-handed Japanese Cobalt Alloy convex scissor at a price that works for a student wage, built to the same professional standard as every tool in the ShearGenius range. Sharpened by Matt Grumley in Ballarat, because starting with the correct tool builds better habits from the beginning.

Built For

• Left-handed hair apprentices and TAFE students starting their career
• Emerging left-handed stylists who want a proper left-handed scissor, not an adaptation
• Learning all core cutting techniques with the correct ergonomics for the left hand
• Anyone who has been using a right-handed scissor and finally wants the real thing

Specs

• Steel: Japanese Cobalt Alloy — professional-grade steel at a student-accessible price
• Rockwell Hardness: 56–58 HRC — real edge retention, not a step-down student product
• Blade Type: Convex (left-handed) — the same blade profile as the senior range
• Handle: Offset Ergonomic Left-Handed — builds correct left-hand posture and wrist position from day one
