Many left handed dog groomers learn to use dog grooming scissors by using a right handed pair of shears, upside down. This means that in order to make the scissors cut, they have to apply a lot of pressure. Over time, the scissoring hand will develop muscle memory and this can affect the way a left handed groomer uses a left handed dog grooming scissor. As a result, more pressure is applied to the scissor, causing the hair to fold rather than cut.
If this applies to you, please contact us for advice on scissors exercises which may help you change to using left handed scissors or help you use the right handed scissors in a way that you will use them more effectively.
