6" Hair Cutting Shears - Ascent

Every kit needs a reliable daily driver, and the Intelio Steel Ascent is built to be exactly that. The blades are 440C stainless steel — an alloy we recommend often because it balances real hardness with corrosion resistance, taking an ultra-sharp edge and keeping it through week after week of salon work.

The detail that sets the Ascent apart at its level is the ball-bearing tension screw. Tension is the most overlooked variable in how a shear cuts; a ball-bearing system keeps the pivot smooth and consistent, and makes fine adjustment effortless — so the action stays controlled even through intricate work.

The frame is balanced and ergonomic with a comfort-rest finger tang, spreading the workload so your hand finishes the day as fresh as it started. A genuine leather carrying case comes standard, keeping the edge protected between chairs and on the move.
