Why do we test the using performance of our hair scissors by cutting flexible facial tissues?

As a reliable manufacturer of stainless steel scissors, all of our stainless steel scissors must pass performance testing before being packaged and delivered to clients. Usually, we test the using performance of our stainless steel scissors by cutting cotton fabric. However, for our plastic handle stainless steel hair cutting scissors; we test their performance by cutting flexible facial tissues. It stemmed from a feedback from a client.

We always attach great importance to the user experience of our stainless steel scissors. A client had ever reported to us that their downstream customers had reported that our stainless steel plastic handle hair scissors is sometimes not very smooth in use. Let’s find the reason. As is well known, all of our plastic handle stainless steel hair cutting scissors must pass performance testing by cutting cotton fabric before leaving the factory. Cotton fabric is harder and more resilient than hair, and our plastic handle stainless steel hair cutting scissors can cut off cotton denim fabric neatly, how come cutting hair is not very smooth? We attach great importance to this issue, then we organized relevant technical and quality inspection personnel to study and discuss about this issue.

By studied the dynamics of cutting hair with plastic handle stainless steel hair cutting scissors; we understood the reasons behind it. The hair is relatively light and hanging, and it feels a bit floating when cut. It is not fixed there like fabric and can be manipulated by you. In response to the unique requirement of cutting hair, we had made moderate adjustments to our plastic handle stainless steel hair cutting scissors. 1) Slightly adjust the angle of the blade cutting wedge. 2) Make slight modifications to the tip of the scissors. 3) Changing the assembly process from machine assembly of scissors to manual assembly, the plastic handle stainless steel hair cutting scissors assembled by skilled workers can ensure better fit between the two cutting blades. After making slight improvements to the plastic handle stainless steel hair cutting scissors, the expected effect was achieved through cutting real hair samples.

The issue with the manufacturing process had been resolved, but how should the testing of the finished product before packaging the stainless steel handle hair cutting scissors be made? Every plastic handle stainless steel hair cutting scissors we produced must pass a shearing test. Cutting fabric cannot objectively reflect the true performance of plastic handle stainless steel hair cutting scissors, but cutting artificial hair not only increases much cost, and also is not available work in practice. Our quality inspection team conducted repeated research and tested various materials using plastic handle stainless steel hair cutting scissors. Finally, we selected flexible facial tissues as the cutting test material for our plastic handle stainless steel hair cutting scissors. The hanging facial tissue is light and airy, while the facial tissue itself is flexible. When the plastic handle stainless steel hair cutting scissors cut the hanging flexible facial tissue, the dynamic is very similar to that of a hairdresser trimming hair. So, the test of cutting hanging flexible facial tissues can intuitively reflect the performance of plastic handle stainless steel hair cutting scissors. We also shared our approach about this testing to the client, and got recognition from them. After this process improvement and the use of the new shear testing methods to inspect the plastic handle stainless steel hair cutting scissors, the client has not mentioned any using performance of the plastic handle stainless steel hair cutting scissors complaints again.

Plastic handle stainless steel hair cutting scissors belong to economy hair scissors, which are not as luxurious and durable as full stainless steel hair cutting scissors. However, if the plastic handle stainless steel hair cutting scissors themselves have good usability and combine with the affordable price of this type of hair cutting scissors, the plastic handle stainless steel hair cutting scissors can still be favored by consumers, and can help buyers who deal in stainless steel scissors gain considerable market share and good profit margins.
