What Is A Blender, Texturizer and Thinner?

The blending or tapering shear has teeth ground or milled very deep into ONE blade. The extreme end of each tooth has a tiny V-notch to prevent hair from slipping. Generally there are 18 teeth per linear inch. Each tooth .01 (1/32) wide with .020 (.5mm) gap in between. These shears are mostly used for finishing a haircut, cutting approximately within to from the hair tips. The thinning shear has teeth cut deep in both blades. One blade is edged, the other again has the V-notch on the extreme end of each tooth. There are 13 teeth per linear inch. Each tooth .045 (3/64) wide with .030 (1/32) gap. These shears are used for thinning thick hair with the cut made close to the skin. Another application is to cut near the hair ends to texture the hair for a more natural look. A Texturizing shear has fewer teeth or wider gaps to create texture. So in effect, the fewer the teeth, the more dramatic the cut will be. We are often asked, Which of the two shears cut out more hair? The thinning shear
