Shear Care & Troubleshooting
If your toothed shears catch, become difficult to close, or remain stuck open, stop using them and do not force the blades closed. Repeated pressure may damage the teeth or cutting edge.
Toothed shears—especially curved thinners, chunkers, blenders, fluffers, and erasers—require very precise alignment between the teeth and cutting blade. Because of their curvature, tooth structure, and close working tolerance, they can be more sensitive to blade tension, trapped hair or debris, insufficient lubrication, opening the blades too widely, or sideways pressure from the thumb.
This can occasionally happen with a new pair or during the first few uses. In many cases, the blades can be released safely without sharpening or repair. Please follow our step-by-step guide before making further adjustments:
Why Toothed Grooming Shears Get Stuck Open — Causes, Fixes, and Prevention
If the shears repeatedly catch at the same point, make an unusual scraping sound, have been dropped, or show a bent, chipped, or damaged tooth, stop using them and contact us before attempting further adjustments.
Hair folding or being pushed between the blades does not always mean that the cutting edge is dull. It may be caused by loose blade tension, excess hair or residue between the blades, an unsuitable cutting angle, taking too large a section, or working on coat that is damp, tangled, or not fully brushed through.
Before testing again:
- Make sure the coat is clean, dry, and completely free of tangles.
- Remove any trapped hair or residue from the blades and teeth.
- Check that the tension screw has not become loose.
- Work with a smaller section of coat and avoid pushing the shears through resistance.
- Do not test the shears on paper, cardboard, fabric, or other non-grooming materials.
If the issue continues, stop using the shears and contact us with a short video showing the cutting issue on a small section of clean, fully brushed coat.
If the blades feel loose or the hair folds between them, the tension may need a small adjustment. Turn the tension adjuster slightly clockwise to tighten it, making only a very small adjustment at a time.
After each adjustment, open and close the shears slowly without forcing them. The movement should feel smooth and controlled—not loose, excessively tight, or difficult to close.
Do not remove the screw, separate the tension assembly, or make a large adjustment at once. If resistance increases, the blades begin to catch, or you are unsure whether the tension is correct, stop and contact us before continuing.
After each grooming session:
- Remove loose hair from the blades, teeth, and pivot area using a soft cloth or suitable cleaning brush.
- Wipe the shears clean and make sure they are completely dry.
- Apply one small drop of shear oil near the pivot point.
- Open and close the blades slowly several times to distribute the oil.
- Wipe away any excess oil before the next use.
If disinfecting the shears, use a product suitable for professional grooming tools and follow its instructions carefully. Do not soak the shears or expose them to bleach, harsh chemicals, or prolonged moisture.
Store the shears closed in their protective case, away from humidity and other metal tools. Avoid dropping them or allowing the blade edges and teeth to strike hard surfaces.
