What scissors blade length is best for your cutting method?
The control of the scissors is based on the handle that fits your hand comfortably without stress, and you have already made that decision.
Choosing the appropriate blade length is not a matter of hand size or how long your fingers are. Because all aspects of controlling the scissors are correlated to the handle, the length of the blade depends on the various methods of cutting. Not hand size.
Having chosen a suitable handle first, adding the new blade’s length is the next logical option to choose as it determines the overall size of the scissors. Those choices will be a 5.0,” 5.5”, 6.0”, 6.5”.
The handle will always be the same size, regardless of the blade's length, and that is essential for consistent upper hand control.

A blades length provides another function that is equal in importance to its sharp edge. And that is the blades’ ability to reach the hair that’s about to be cut.
That means the distance you will be positioned from your work, the number of closures that will be necessary to cut a section of hair, and how deep the blade reaches into the interior of the hair cut with a single or multiple closures. And let’s not leave out the multiple sliding cut techniques.
All of these cutting methods will have a significant impact on the stability, movement, and the flow of the hair in the finished style. Each of these results will vary depending on the reach of the scissors blade.
Consider all your unique cutting techniques to choose your blades length, as you will likely require more than a few different size scissors.
You must be eager to decide on the type of edge you will desire for those new scissors, as they will complement your many cutting methods.
The six edge types to choose from are the Razor, Convex, Micro-Serrated, Mitsuko Blade Hybrid, & 15T Sculpting, 25T Texture, and a 30T Texture.
