When a straight shear removes too much and a comb alone isn't enough, the Annie Ice Tempered Stainless Steel Hair Thinning Shears are the professional stylist's and barber's answer for removing bulk, blending layers, and adding natural texture without sacrificing length. The 7-inch thinning shear is the salon standard for softening blunt lines, eliminating weight from thick and coily hair, and creating seamless transitions between sections — delivering the kind of lived-in, effortless finish that clients come back for. Engineered for Type 1 through Type 4C hair, these shears give every stylist the control to thin, blend, and texturize with confidence.

• Ice Tempered Stainless Steel Blades: Precision-ground, ice tempered stainless steel construction delivers lasting sharpness and corrosion resistance — thinning teeth stay clean and sharp through heavy daily professional use, ensuring consistent, snag-free results on every pass.
• Comfortable Finger Rest for Controlled Thinning: The built-in finger rest provides a stable, ergonomic grip that gives stylists and barbers the precise hand control needed for thinning and blending work — reducing fatigue during detailed, repetitive texturizing sessions.
• 7-Inch Professional Thinning Blade: The 7" thinning shear length is the salon professional standard for bulk removal, layer blending, and texturizing — long enough to move efficiently through thick sections, precise enough for seamless transitions and soft finishing work on all hair textures.
• Removes Bulk Across All Hair Types: Engineered for Type 1 through Type 4C hair — straight, wavy, curly, coily, and textured — making these thinning shears the go-to blending tool for multicultural salons and stylists working with diverse hair densities and curl patterns.

Pro Stylist Tip: On thick or high-density Type 3–4C hair, work the thinning shears in a downward motion through the mid-shaft of the section — never at the root or ends — and make no more than 2–3 passes per section. This removes bulk evenly without creating holes or uneven weight distribution, keeping the curl pattern intact and the finish looking natural.
