My name is Carrie Long. I attended the Long Beach Hair Show in January 2010 and Randy Ferman sold me my first pair of Shark Fin Shears. I was very reluctant to make the change to a swivel thumb, plus I have been a Stylist for 25 years and cutting with my middle finger! This meant "double whammy" .............. But, Randy had fitted my hand and fingers with the shears and it was so comfortable I thought I would give it a try. Well, here I am one month later and I absolutely "LOVE" my new Shark Fin Shears. Almost from the first day. Thanks to Randy and the 30 day guarantee (meaning I could make a change if needed) I am a Happy stylist!

I just wanted to say thank you very much for the amazing product that you have!! I have been in the industry for 10 years, and purchased my Shark Fin Swivel's about one year ago. My hand was pretty close to crippled before so when I saw them in a magazine I figured that I would try them, and maybe they could help a bit. Well I just want to make it known that they have totally changed my life. Within one week of using them my hand had absolutely no pain or weakness. I own my own salon so they get used very often and I have never once had an issue with fatigue since my purchase. For those of you in the business this will change your life -- I can even play a game of bowling!! Also, once I received my shears the customer service made sure they fit properly. They took their time to help teach me how to best use them. They are very personable and friendly.

I was at the Calgary, Alberta ABA a few months ago and got talking with a sales person about the Shark Fin swivel shears. I took the plunge an bought a pair and have not looked back since. I was beginning to have some wrist and elbow pain and these shears have virtually got rid of all the pain. My clients think it is neat the way I move my thumb to cut and the girls at work are jealous. Thank you so much for these shears. You have a customer for life now!

I was at a hairshow in Columbus, Ohio and I have been looking at these shears for months now. My friend that was with me told me it was stupid to pay that much money, but I walked away from him before I changed my mind. Let me tell you that was the best decision I ever made. I used them for the first time and I really didn't have a problem using them but when I was done cutting my husbands hair my wrist did not hurt. Don't let money stand in your way of getting these shears they are wonderful and you won't regret buying them. I will end up buying some more from them so I can get rid of all my other shears.

I didn't think you could teach an old dog new tricks, but you did! The shears are great, the way they feel in your hand is wonderful. No more hurting in your shoulder or neck. I didn't know that the way I was cutting hair was hurting me but I could feel the pain. Looking forward to NO MORE PAIN!!! Can't wait to get my students using SharkFin shears. They loved the way my feel.

Just wanted to send a note about how amazing these shears are! I got the rainbow swivel shears 2-3 years ago and am so happy I gave them a try. Until meeting you at the show, I did not realize my shears never fit me properly and I was gripping onto them. After being fitted and switching to the shark fin swivels, my arm, wrist, and hand stopped aching. All of my clients talk about my "pretty shears" too. Also, I just had to send them in for the first time and customer service was really great! Thank you!

Hi, Cynthia here...I have been a hair stylist for five years and finally last year I purchased my first set of Shark Fin Swivel Thumb Shears and Swivel Thinners! I want to say I absolutely love them! I cannot and will not ever use a regular pair of shears! They are so comfortable. I can't believe what a differance they have made every single day! And on top of that, my customers love them too because they are so different and unique! This was absolutly the best investment that I made thus far in my career. Also, customer service is great...I love the fact that they come with an unlimited lifetime warranty!..Who does that!

Thank you for your wonderful shears. I am able to work again! I have been a hair stylist for over 30 years and cutting caused such cramps, numbness and pain that ran all the way up to my elbow, that I had to stop working. I saw your ad and ordered the twister 5.5" rainbow. What a difference. My hand does not cramp and the tingles are gone. After using your shears, I find I can not use my old ones anymore. Just trying to cut with them causes cramps almost immediately.
Again, thanks for a great product!

Best Regards

I followed your instructions and left my old shears at home so I couldn't fall back on them. My God I love my new Shark Fin shears. However you were wrong....... It didn't take me 30 days to get use to them, it took me about 2 weeks. Since using my new shears, WITH the swivel thumb and scissor fitting, I no longer have the cramping in my forearm and the pain in my wrist. I have to admit I was a little skeptical at first but now I am a believer and a user. Thank you Randy - Thank You Shark Fin!!! If anyone needs to talk to an actual user for a testimony. please use my name.

Thanks again,

In my opinion, Shark-Fin swivel thumb shears are one of the best inventions ever made. They are not comparable to any other shear. My whole salon has these shears and are very pleased with the performance. The staff is also very helpful and friendly with any questions that I have. I would recommend Shark Fin Shears to any stylist wanting the best shears possible. These shears are a great investment for your career.

Your company and staff is truly the best! I LOVE MY SHEARS!

I love my shears so much that maybe it would be fun to be a distributor. I have been a cosmetologist for 22 years. I gave up doing hair for 2 years because it was unbearable on my hands and carpel tunnel syndrom, that was until I saw an ad in a beauty magazine for your Shark Fin Swivel Thumb shears. I purchased the shears and texturizing shears. I can't tell you how much I love my shears, as they have let me continue to do the work I love, being a Hair Stylist. Sincerely,

- Susan Ziegler, Z Salon Washington State

Thank you so much for helping me pick out the perfect shears! I have been a stylist for 20 something years and have used some of the best shears in the industry. With the job, came the infamous carpal tunnel syndrome. Even after surgery, I still have aches and pains by the end of the work day. I knew my shears were partially to blame and started a three month long process of researching the best shears for the money. I kept coming back to the Shark Fins. I decided to give you a call and you had me sold in the first minute! I am so glad you did, too!
These shears are the smoothest I have ever used. They took a little adjusting at first, but once I got the hang of them, I fell in love with them. I can say that for the first time in a year, my hands didn't hurt at the end of my day.
I can't thank you enough. I can't wait to get my second pair. This time it will be the chunking shears! I will definitely recommend your company to all of my coworkers and anyone else I come across in the industry! Thanks again and I look forward to speaking with you in the future,

Over the years I have owned several different brands and styles of scissors, including two that were swivel thumb. When I attended a hair show in Reno, I looked at several scissors. I tried the Shark Fin scissors and they felt like they were made for my hand. I purchased the 6¼ inch titanium rainbow swivel-thumb scissors and they were custom fitted to my hand. I didn't think I would notice much difference between my old swivel thumb and the new Shark Fin swivel thumb scissors. I was wrong. My thumb and hand doesn't get tired and sore like it did with my old scissors. I am very happy with my new scissors, and look forward to purchasing more from Shark Fin.

I'm so impressed with your Shark Fin Shears and your concern for keeping your clients happy. When I first spoke to you over the phone, I was actually trying to send my shears back and get a refund. I honestly had not used my Shark Fin enough to know how wonderful they work and was feeling guilty about the money I had spent. You convinced me to put away my other pair and give my shark fins a fair chance. Now I can't imagine using any other brand! One day I had forgotten to take my shears to work and asked a few clients to come back the next day when I had my Shark Fins. I'm more than happy to tell others about my shears because of their comfort and ease they allow me to cut with due to their beautiful design. I'm ready for another pair! You have earned a life-long client. Thanks for everything!

I have been a hairdresser for more than 13 years. Using normal scissors on a regular basis I developed carpal tunnel problems to finger deformation making it very painful for me to cut hair.
After learning about the Shark Fin Scissors, I thought I would give it a try. The first week was very hard because I was not used to scissors that were not perfectly straight. After the first week they became, without me realizing it, my best friend. The shape of the scissors perfectly hugs the natrual position of the fingers, releasing the tension and the stress that regular scissors put on your fingers and writst.
I highly recommend them to all hairdressers and in particular beginners so that they will never develop problems like I have. Sincerely,

- Sandra Capoccia

I went to the 2005 Long Beach Show... I never really knew what the difference was between shear companies. I bought them if they looked good... No one had ever explained to me the difference in size and shape for my hand. I asked Budd what the difference was between Shark Fin swivel shears and others, so he put another pair of shears in my hand. I felt the difference. The ones that were measured for my hand and fingers, the Shark Fin shears, were completely secure. I have used these shears and don't like using any other. I love, love, love, them... a very happy customer!
