Dog Grooming Scissors

Scissors do the work clippers cannot: faces, feet, sanitary areas and any finish where a blade would be unsafe or too uniform. A sharp pair used briefly causes far less stress than repeated clipper passes. Pet Corner Dubai stocks dog grooming scissors from Andis, Four Paws and ButterCut.

What makes our dog grooming scissor range stand out

1. Straight, curved and thinning types

Straight for length, curved for following body contours, and thinning shears for blending clipper lines so a groom does not look stepped.

2. Rounded safety tips for faces and feet

Blunt-tipped scissors are what make working near eyes and between pads safe on a dog that may move suddenly.

3. Japanese steel that holds an edge

Sharpness is what makes scissoring safe. A dull pair pulls hair and pushes the groomer to use force.

4. Adjustable tension and ergonomic handles

Offset handles and correct tension prevent the hand and wrist strain that comes with a full day of scissoring.

Frequently asked questions

Which scissors do I actually need?

For home use, one straight pair with rounded tips covers faces, feet and sanitary trims, which is most of what an owner needs between salon visits. Add thinning shears if you also clipper, since they blend the lines.

How do I safely trim around the eyes?

Use rounded-tip scissors only, hold them parallel to the face rather than pointing at the eye, rest your hand against the dog head so you move together if they do, and take small amounts. If your dog will not hold still, stop and let a groomer do it.

How often do scissors need sharpening?

For daily professional use, every few months. You will notice it as hair folding or pushing away rather than cutting cleanly. Never use grooming scissors on anything but hair, since one cut through a mat with grit in it will ruin the edge.

Can I use kitchen or craft scissors instead?

No. They have pointed tips, the wrong blade geometry and they crush rather than cut hair. Pointed scissors near a moving dog are how most home grooming injuries happen.
