    "The PARAGON II is hands down the best scissor I have ever used. Ideal for someone who loves to cut hair dry, the design of these shears is much more streamlined and efficient compared to the bulky size of other dry cutters. They are my go-to scissor I can use on wet or dry hair, are perfectly balanced and stay sharp for months.” @chrisjones_hair

     

    “The 6” Paragon II is smooth and easy to control for dry cutting & precision work. The thin, lightweight design is perfect for all types of line work, texturizing and detailing and the blade design works well for cutting hair both wet and dry. Amazing all-around scissor.” @matt.swinney

    "I would feel lost without my PARAGON II scissors! They're my go to scissors for both wet and dry cutting. I love their slender body for precision cutting. I can get so close and tight to my cutting lines and I don't have to worry about anything bulky getting in the way of a clean perfect line. They are the sexiest, sharpest scissors I've owned. I love them!" @brianaciseros

    After not working in a salon for almost 8 years, when I decided to get behind the chair again I knew I wanted to get a new pair of shears. Once I found a high end salon to work in, I knew I needed shears that would reflect the craftsmanship of my haircuts and the Paragon II by Arc have completely fit the bill and exceeded my expectations. I feel confident charging my worth knowing my skills and tools are top notch.

    World's best shears

    In my opinion, these shears are totally worth the money. Even the highest quality shears (my backup pair is a mizutani blacksmith) don't come close in quality. This thing really does cut like a sword, effortlessly gliding through any head of hair and very suitable for texturizing techniques and dry cutting. I'd recommend these shears to anyone and everyone who wants to improve their craft.

    Like a hot knife through butter…

    I wish I would have pulled the trigger years ago, but I’m so glad I have them now. My 6.5 Paragon II shears navigate wet and dry hair with ease. I cut wet to dry, and I do dry cuts often so these scissors can do it all. They handle all of the dry texturizing and personalizing with ease. I’m so happy with my purchase!
