FC Professional 6" Shear Set vs Nixcer Professional Sharp Series Arc Hair Scissors

Buy the FC set if you want both a cutting and a thinning shear in one purchase, and you cut mostly fine to medium hair. Buy the Nixcer if you want a single longer shear with a convex edge for thick or coarse hair and blunt cutting. The FC set has the broader kit and a left-handed option, and its 130 ratings average 4.9. The Nixcer is one shear only, with a longer 6.25-inch blade and a lighter 2.18 oz body. Owners of the FC set report clean cuts on normal hair but folding and dullness on thick, coarse or curly hair out of the case.

• Choose the FC Professional 6" Shear Set if you need a cutting and thinning shear together, cut both wet and dry hair, or cut left-handed.
• Choose the Nixcer Sharp Series Arc if you want one longer, lighter shear with a convex edge for thick or coarse hair and do not need a thinning shear.
