I'd forgotten that I created this blog a couple years ago when I was doing marketing for Diamond Rose Shears. As I was moving all my "stuff" online I came across this and thought how interesting. I have since purchased a Diamond Rose Shears Distributorship and have been working it for over a year now. I love the Musashi Shears product line. I've sold well over 100 shears in the last year and all my clients love them. Without a doubt they are the finest shears available in the country and with the new Interest free finance plan they become affordable for any working stylist. We just finished up a training class for 4 new distributors, one of whom I hired to take over part of my territory. In that class we were trained in the proper use of our thumb swivel shears. These are incredibly useful tools for the professional stylist. They not only reduce the strain on the thumb and wrist thought to contribute to carpal tunnel syndrome but also allow the stylist to work with her arm down and her shoulder in a very natural and relaxed position. This advantage (given by our three dimensional thumb swivel) reduces overall fatigue at the end of the day, and of course our unique sharpening system keeps those tools in perfect operating condition. If you'd like to hear more about how you can launch your own professional scissors consulting and sharpening business drop me a line at phil@frontrangesharpening.com I'll be happy to talk about this business.
