Operating Instructions

The JW S2 Shear and TS40 Blender are precision tools designed for professional hair cutting. Proper technique is essential for optimal performance and longevity of the tools.

Using the S2 Shear (Convex Edge)

The S2 Shear features a convex edge, which provides a very sharp and smooth cutting action, ideal for slide cutting, point cutting, and general hair cutting. The offset handle design is ergonomically crafted to reduce strain on the hand and wrist during extended use. Ensure the hair is clean and properly sectioned before cutting. Hold the shear with a comfortable grip, utilizing the removable finger rest for added stability and control. Make clean, precise cuts, avoiding bending or forcing the blades through the hair.

Using the TS40 Blender (Thinning Shear)

The TS40 Blender is equipped with 40 teeth and provides an 18% cut ratio, making it suitable for blending, texturizing, and removing bulk from hair without creating harsh lines. Use the blender on dry or damp hair, depending on the desired effect. Insert the hair into the teeth and close the blades gently. Avoid over-thinning a section. The blender is excellent for softening blunt lines, adding volume, or creating seamless transitions in hairstyles.

Maintenance

Proper maintenance is crucial for preserving the performance and lifespan of your JW Shears. Follow these guidelines to keep your tools in excellent condition:

• Cleaning: After each use, wipe the blades clean with a soft, dry cloth to remove any hair, moisture, or product residue. For a deeper clean, use a shear cleaning spray specifically designed for professional shears.
• Oiling: Apply a small drop of shear oil to the pivot screw area daily or as needed, especially if the shears feel stiff. Open and close the shears several times to distribute the oil evenly, then wipe off any excess.
• Storage: Always store your shears and blender in the provided zipper shear case. This protects the blades from damage, dust, and moisture, and prevents accidental drops.
• Handling: Handle your shears with care. Avoid dropping them or using them to cut anything other than hair, as this can dull or damage the blades.
• Sharpening: Professional shears require professional sharpening. Do not attempt to sharpen them yourself, as this can ruin the blade edge. Consult a reputable shear sharpener when your shears begin to feel dull or pull hair.
