I just got my scissor back from being serviced and it doesn't cut right - What's wrong?
First... don't panic; we stand behind all of our work. Review the 'Care and Maintenance" information that is on the back of the technical report enclosed with your scissor. Check the tension adjustment of your scissor; often, parts are replaced during service and some of the parts may 'settle' or 'seat' during shipping.
Also, be aware that your scissors will most likely feel different than when you sent them in - they're balanced and sharp now!
OK, I've confirmed the tension and checked my cutting technique, what if I'm unhappy with my sharpening?
Contact us for assistance. We stand behind our work and offer an exclusive '90Day Guarantee' on all scissors we service.
The 90Day Guarantee covers ALL the 'Real Life' stuff that can happen to your scissor in salon.
This includes dropping, nicking, accidental damage.
Does not cover abuse - i.e. cutting electrical cords, chemical damage, scissors altered, modified, serviced elsewhere or Acts of "The Other Guy".
Within the United States, simply send the scissor(s) back with a copy of your service invoice or service invoice number with a cashiers check, money order, credit or debit card information for $20.00 to cover the return shipping, handling and insurance; there are no additional charges.
