 Hey guys Matt Beck from free salon education comm and we're gonna go over a quick tip on how to palm your scissors now The first thing I want to point out is that it's not always legal in state board to do this on your test So make sure if you're in school that you check on that before you get too comfortable doing this now If you're out of school go ahead have fun with it So what we're gonna do is we're gonna go over what palming your scissors is all about so for me I love this because it gets my scissor out of the way for me to go in And then comb the hair and then I can get the scissor back out and cut So it's just basically for me putting the scissor away getting the sharp point away from the person's head and then Continuing on with my hair cut now What we're gonna do is I'm gonna show you guys how to do it So you're gonna start off with your scissor in your hand just like this So normally just like you would be cutting I'm gonna take my thumb out I'm gonna move my pinky over and then I'm gonna push the scissor back into my pinky And then I'm gonna catch it just like this so your pinky should wrap around it And then you're gonna grab the comb with these three fingers here Then you can go in comb your hair lift it however you want to do it And then you can go back bring the scissor back out So when you go to bring the scissor back out what you're gonna do is you're gonna take your thumb You're gonna reach underneath here and pull the scissor back into your hand. So it's that easy So push it back pull it back up With your hand now the difference of what I do and some other people that I've seen do is I push it back into my pinky and then when I want the scissor back in my hand I release my pinky so I let my pinky go and I swing the scissor back out So into my pinky and I swing it back around for me. This is easier because If you look at this trying to reach back grab this here or just kind of kicking it around This is a little simpler for me So whatever is easier for you guys definitely go for it, but I would definitely I would recommend Palming your scissor so that you can comb and then go back in and cut so you're gonna palm the scissor comb Go back in and cut it just makes it a lot easier gets a scissor out of the way and it looks more professional So hope you guys enjoyed this tip definitely practice it leave your comments below We have free tips coming out Monday through Friday right here on YouTube and on free salon education comm So we'll see you guys on the next video.
