Thad’s March 2025 Route – Keep Your Shears Sharp & Ready!


March is here, and that means Thad is hitting the road once again to keep your shears performing at their best! If you’re a stylist or barber in Green Bay, Fond du Lac, Waupun, or Oshkosh, mark your calendars—Thad will be stopping by your area this month to sharpen and tune up your shears.

March Route Schedule:

📍 March 4 – Green Bay
📍 March 11 – Green Bay
📍 March 18 – Fond du Lac & Waupun
📍 March 25 – Oshkosh

Thad doesn’t schedule appointments—he simply stops in at salons and barbershops along his route, collects shears that need sharpening or tune-ups, and returns them the very next day, ready to perform at their peak. No hassle, no downtime—just sharp shears when you need them.

Why Regular Sharpening Matters

Dull shears don’t just make cutting harder—they can lead to split ends, imprecise cuts, and even hand fatigue from extra strain. Keeping your shears professionally sharpened helps:
✅ Maintain clean, precise cuts
✅ Extend the life of your shears
✅ Reduce stress on your hands and wrists
✅ Ensure a better experience for your clients

Bonus: Looking for New Shears?

In addition to sharpening, Thad also sells Washi brand professional shears and offers a try-before-you-buy opportunity! Whether you’re looking for ergonomic comfort, precision edges, or a stylish upgrade, he has options to fit your needs.

Be Ready When Thad Stops By!

If you’re on this month’s route, make sure your shears are ready when Thad drops in. Whether they need a simple tune-up or a full sharpening, he’s got you covered! Have questions? Reach out anytime—Thad is always happy to help.

Stay sharp, and see you soon!

Common Mistakes That Can Shorten the Life of Your Blades

Image
As a stylist or barber, your shears are your most valuable tool. Keeping them in top condition ensures precision, efficiency, and comfort. However, many professionals unknowingly make mistakes that can prematurely wear down their blades. Here are some common missteps to avoid so your shears stay sharper for longer. 1. Cutting the Wrong Materials Your shears are designed specifically for cutting hair—nothing else. Using them to cut foil, plastic, paper, or even combs can quickly dull the blades and cause nicks that impact performance. Keep a separate pair of utility scissors for non-hair cutting tasks. 2. Improper Cleaning and Maintenance Hair, moisture, and product buildup can corrode metal and cause shears to lose their edge. To prevent this: Wipe your shears clean after every use. Use a soft cloth with a small amount of shear oil to prevent rust and buildup. Deep clean them regularly, especially around the pivot point. 3. Dropping Your Shears Accidents happen, but dropping your shear...

If you’re part-time or in a specialty role (like dry cutting or barbering), you might stretch to 6 months. Factors That Affect How Often You Need Sharpening 1. Frequency of Use Daily use naturally dulls blades faster. If you're cutting all day, every day, your shears are get...
