FAQ - JW Shears Right Handed RGS Series

Q: What is the JW RGS Series used for?
A: The JW RGS Series is a professional hairdressing shear designed for precision cutting across all hair types. It features a lightweight design with an offset/slight crane handle that reduces hand fatigue, making it suitable for detailed work, soft cutting techniques, and all-purpose styling. "RGS" refers to the distinctive Rose Gold Titanium finish of this series .

Q: What are the key features of the JW RGS Series?
A: Key features include :

• Premium Japanese Stainless Steel – Forged from high-quality steel for strength, durability, and long-lasting edge retention

• Titanium Rose Gold Finish – Distinctive, elegant finish with superior corrosion resistance

• Convex Edge – Provides an exceptionally sharp, durable cutting edge with reduced friction

• Offset/Slight Crane Handle – Ergonomic design promotes natural hand position, reducing wrist, elbow, and shoulder strain

• Counter-Sunk Locking Tension Control – Allows easy tension adjustment; flat design won't interfere with combing

• Screw-In Bumper – Adds additional comfort during use

• Permanent Tang – Inset and contoured to relieve stress on the pinky finger

• Lifetime Warranty – Backed by JW Shears

Q: What is unique about the handle design of the RGS Series?
A: The RGS Series features sculptured handles that are wider and curved downward to allow more comfort and control. The permanent tang is inset and contoured to relieve stress on the pinky finger, a common pain point during extended cutting sessions. The contoured, funnel-shaped finger holes allow your fingers to pivot and rotate, giving you maximum comfort with less fatigue in your hand and wrist .

Q: What sizes are available for the RGS Series?
A: The JW RGS Series is available in 5.75 inches and 6.25 inches . The 5.75-inch size is ideal for detailed work and smaller hands, while the 6.25-inch size offers more coverage for larger sections and scissor-over-comb techniques.

Q: Is the RGS Series lightweight?
A: Yes. The JW RGS Series is described as a lightweight scissor, making it comfortable for extended use and reducing hand fatigue during long cutting sessions .

Q: Is there a matching thinner available for the RGS Series?
A: Yes. The JW RGS Shear & Thinner Kit includes the RGS cutting shear and a matching TS40 Black Blender (40 teeth / 18% cut ratio) packaged for savings . For a more advanced texturizing option, the RGS-40 Blending Series features a 180-degree swivel handle with 40 teeth and an 18% cut ratio .

Q: Does the RGS Series have a removable finger rest?
A: No. The RGS Series features a permanent tang (finger rest) that is inset and contoured to relieve stress on the pinky finger . Unlike some JW models with removable finger rests, the RGS Series tang is fixed in place.

Q: Is the tension adjustable on the RGS Series?
A: Yes. The RGS Series features a counter-sunk locking tension control system that allows for easy adjustment. The flat screw design ensures it won't interfere when combing through hair during cutting .

Q: What do professional stylists say about the RGS Series?
A: Professional stylists rate the RGS Series highly. One verified reviewer gave it 5 out of 5 stars, stating: "They feel great in my hand and cut really well. Smooth and effortless" . The series is praised for its comfort, smooth cutting action, and lightweight design.
