Artero Black Symmetric 5.5″ 28T Thinning Scissors

Artero Black Symmetric 5.5-inch thinning scissors with 28 teeth and black aluminium handles; explore 4030 steel, a removable finger rest and 20–30% removal.

Black Symmetric T48355 is a 5.5-inch thinning model with 28 teeth and symmetric black aluminium handles. A removable finger rest is included in its construction. This combination of length, tooth count and handle layout distinguishes it from the larger or offset Artero thinning models.

The listed steel is 4030, with a hardness of 57 HRC ±1. The stated origin is Spain and the removal range is 20–30%. Review the symmetric handle layout alongside your preferred working grip rather than selecting the model solely for its black finish.

Technical details

Selection and controlled use

Choose thinning scissors by the complete specification: length, tooth arrangement, handle layout and removal figure. The percentage is a published comparison figure, not a guaranteed result on every head of hair. Section size, hair type and technique affect the amount actually removed. Work gradually, comb the section and inspect the result before repeating a pass, particularly when comparing models with different removal ranges.

General care guidance

Remove hair residue after use and keep the tool clean and dry. Follow the instructions supplied with the scissors for cleaning, lubrication and tension adjustment. Do not apply one model’s adjustment procedure to a different mechanism. Handle the cutting edges carefully and store the scissors so that the teeth and blades are protected from knocks.

Choosing the model

Review the technical table and the selected code before ordering. If you need help comparing the handle arrangement or tooth configuration, contact Viva Cosmetics with the model code so the discussion refers to the correct scissors.
