Professional Thinning Scissors
Get controlled texture and reduced bulk with professional thinning scissors. At Adel Professional, we stock trusted brands including Jaguar, Haito and TRI, giving stylists a reliable tool for texturising, blending and softening every finish.
A Thinner for Every Texture
Our range of thinning scissors covers different tooth counts and blade sizes, giving stylists options suited to how much bulk needs to be removed. You will find:
- Lower tooth-count thinners for stronger, more noticeable texturising
- Higher tooth-count thinners for softer, more subtle blending
- Offset handle thinners for a more relaxed cutting position
- Sizes from 5" to 6.5", suited to different hand sizes and techniques
All chosen to give even, controlled removal of bulk without leaving obvious lines.
Built for Control and Consistency
Choosing a trusted thinner brand like Jaguar or TRI means working with precisely spaced teeth, a stable pivot and a blade that removes a consistent amount of hair with every pass. That consistency is what keeps texturising looking soft and natural rather than patchy.

Whether you're a trainee learning to texturise for the first time or an experienced stylist refining a finishing kit, our range supports every stage of your career.

FAQs
How do thinning scissors differ from cutting scissors?
Thinning scissors have notched, comb-like teeth on one or both blades, designed to remove bulk and add texture without shortening the overall length of the hair.
What does tooth count affect?
A lower tooth count removes more hair per cut for stronger texturising, while a higher tooth count removes less hair per cut for softer, more subtle blending.
Can thinning scissors be used on all hair types?
Yes, though the tooth count and technique should be adjusted to suit the hair's thickness and texture to avoid removing too much or too little bulk.
How much hair should be thinned at once?
It's generally best to work gradually, thinning small sections at a time and checking the result, since removed hair cannot be put back.
How often should thinning scissors be sharpened?
Thinning scissors typically need sharpening less often than cutting scissors, but regular cleaning and oiling of the pivot will help maintain smooth, even performance.
