When people ask me which scissors are the best, what size, and which brand to choose, my answer is always the same: the ones that fit your hand. Brand and price are secondary if the tool does not follow your anatomy. Buying scissors online is almost an impossible mission because until you hold them in your hand, you do not know how they will “sit” in your grip. The technique of dog grooming begins with ergonomics, not with a catalog.
Handle Anatomy: The Key to Superior Technique
The most important aspect of scissors is the construction of the handle. Proper dog grooming technique means that only one blade moves, while the other remains static and serves as a limiter. The more stable that static blade is, the cleaner and flatter the surface you are cutting will be.
You will not need to pass over the same spot a hundred times if your tool supports the proper movement of your thumb.
A Patented Design for Perfect Balance
Our Sasha Riess patent, which will enter the market this autumn, focuses on keeping the hand in the most natural position possible. When you close your fingers, the upper part of the scissors should remain as flat as possible. In our models, the finger rests are stepped so that when you hold them, your hand forms a flat surface. This reduces fatigue and allows maximum precision.
The size of the scissors must allow your hand to remain flat. Only then can the finger move freely while the hand stays stable. A tool must serve your biology, not the other way around.
At Sasha Riess, we design equipment that honors your physiology. Choosing dog grooming scissors engineered around natural hand ergonomics eliminates fatigue and unlocks effortless, artistic precision, bringing true pureloveandharmony to your craft. Explore anatomical mastery: Linktree Sasha Riess
