The Feather Texturizing Blade is unique in that it cuts hair in small sections, and only removes half of the hair, which creates volume and texture. The blade fits snugly into the handle and does not chatter or move when cutting. Although surgically sharp, these blades are very safe for you and your client with its patented blade guard, which prevents the guard from moving and exposing the blade. This also prevents hair from clogging between the guard and the blade.
