Anyone who works with shears knows the reality: nicks happen. You don’t always have time to stop, you need something reliable, clean, and always at your station. 🩹 From day one, Scissorsmith was built from behind the chair with real hairstylists and barbers in mind. Our bandaids came from necessity. What started as a simple add-on has now become one of our most talked-about details. Every sharpening goes back with a bandaid, and over the years it’s become a Scissorsmith signature. Swipe through to see stories from stylists and barbers across the country who keep them close by — whether for a quick save behind the chair or just because they love the idea that Scissorsmith actually gets it. #scissorsmith #sharpenedbyexperts #trustedbypros #barbertools #salontools #scissorsharpening #shearsharpening #scissorrepair #hairstylist #hairscissors Scissor sharpening, shear sharpening, scissor repair, barber tools, salon tools, professional shear sharpening, hair scissors, hairstylist tools, barber scissors, trusted by pros, professional sharpening service, edmonton scissor sharpening, calgary scissor sharpening, red deer scissor sharpening, saskatoon scissor sharpening, kelowna scissor sharpening, boston scissor sharpening, canada, usa

HAPPY CANADA DAY 🍁🇨🇦 Canadian Entrepreneur Spotlight! 
Meet Lisa & Justin, husband and wife, founders of @scissorsmithinc & @smithshearco Together, they’re reshaping how the hair industry thinks about its most essential tool: the scissor. Lisa built her career as a professional hairstylist, from salon ownership to cutting hair across Europe. Back in Canada, she ran a busy home salon while raising three boys with Justin, a retired pro hockey player beginning a new career as a firefighter. They didn’t plan to launch a sharpening company. But when Lisa’s shears went dull, she realized stylists still had few trusted options. The tools that power an entire industry were being handed off to just anyone with a bench grinder. That moment sparked the idea and Scissorsmith was born. They created something no one else had: a dedicated shear service center built just for hairstylists and barbers. No knives. No lawn tools. Just professional shears. Justin became a master of Japanese sharpening. Lisa brought insight only a stylist could offer. Together, they created the Scissorsmith Technique, a repeatable system that values more than just sharpness. It’s about control, balance, and how a tool moves through real hair on real heads. Today, Scissorsmith is trusted across North America, with locations in:
🇨🇦 Edmonton, AB (HQ)
🇨🇦 Saskatoon, SK
🇺🇸 Boston, MA
🇨🇦 Kelowna, BC But they didn’t stop there. After servicing every major brand, they saw what held up, and what didn’t. So they launched SMITH Shear Co - a curated line of handcrafted shears made in Canada using premium Japanese steel. Built for artists. Refined, intentional, and made to last. This didn’t happen overnight.
The trust. The reputation. The results.
They were built one edge at a time — one client at a time. This is a Canadian story. 
Of craftsmanship. Of doing things right.
And of raising the standard, together. Follow their journey:

187 scissors. 17 hours. A pile of bandaids. We sharpened, repaired, and reconnected — not just with tools, but with the people who use them every day. We shared conversations, met new faces, caught up with familiar ones, and felt deeply grateful to be part of a community that values craft and care. Thank you to everyone who trusted us with your tools. That trust means everything. We’d do it all over again. @ibsspro #allaboutconnections The crew: Justin – Founder Shawn – Boston Franchise Owner Brennan – Apprentice Sharpener Lisa – Co-Founder #Scissorsmith #InternationalBeauty #SharpenedWithCare #ThankYouForTrustingUs #yeghairstylist #yegbarber #bostonhairstylists #bostonbarber #yychair #yxehairstylist #shearsharpeningdoneright #scissormaintenance
