Best $200 I've ever spent

I love these shears! The finger placement is perfect for me, and the slightly elongated thumb hole makes it easy and comfortable to rotate the cutting position as needed. They are also incredibly sharp, though time will tell if the sharpness holds up. I purchased them for $200 at 60% off, and I feel it's the best $200 I've spent so far in my new hairstyling career.

Your support and the kind words you’ve shared in this five-star review mean the world to us. We’re truly honored to have you as a valued customer. Thank you for choosing Sam Villa!
