I went to Ulta a beauty supply store, and the most expensive scissors they sold were around $30.00. I was expecting to pay much more. They didn't begin to compare with some older hair cutting scissors I had, and wondered where I could buy them locally. I like the longer shears, for trimming around the face, and these don't work that well, so I still using my old scissors. By the way, Carol, I'm a fan of good scissors, and if yours ever do dull, Joanne's fabric store has a scissor sharpening service that is around 10-15 dollars a pair. I just don't believe that cheap scissors, even new, work near as well as good scissors, maybe for cutting paper, but not for hair, you get a much smoother, less choppy look with really good scissors. The way a stylist holds hair, between the fingers, you don't really need super sharp scissors, but if you are cutting the angle of the face without holding the hair, good scissor are a must.
