SO - WHERE DO MY SCISSORS REALLY COME FROM?

At HAIR EXPO 08 it appears that we created a few problems for a lot of people selling scissors by forcing them to tell the truth about what they sell.

Even we, were surprised at the reaction from scissor sales people, including those who have been traditionally regarded as those who can be trusted to tell the truth about their scissors. We had a well know Sydney based company aggressively confront us at our stand at Expo and the day after Expo had a very aggressive phone call from the owner of a very well known Melbourne based company.

It seems that our "HOW TO BUY SCISSORS" document has ruffled a few feathers within the scissor sales sector of the industry. It appears there are more people telling lies than we originally thought.

So......what was our original motivation for doing this at Expo?

There are many scissors that carry the word "JAPAN" on them that are quite simply NOT FROM JAPAN!
Japan is just printed there to make you think that's where they come from.

There are also a lot of "cast" scissors being sold as "two-piece" scissors and therefore the price is at least twice what it should be.

We are aware of many scissor sellers that also tell hairdressers their scissors are two-piece or they are from Japan.

Will they put it in writing?

Not unless you make them do it!

Being the largest in the world, we felt we had a responsibility to help

stop hairdressers being ripped-off by scissor sellers

telling blatant lies about the scissors they sell & getting away with it.

Rapid Edge is, by far, the world's largest scissor servicing organisation. Quite simply, Rapid Edge has over 180 outlets Worldwide and that makes us over 20 times the size of anyone in Australia.

We have never felt the need to constantly "tell" anyone how good we are or how much more we know than anyone else - our work speaks for itself. We didn't get to be the biggest in the world by producing anything less than outstanding quality workmanship. We don't need to tell people how good we are - we just show them!

Keep your eyes on this spot......we will continue announce initiatives to bring ALL scissor sellers to account for the things they claim regarding the scissors they sell.
