2) The shear are then disassembled and the movement parts are inspected.
3) The inner ride surface of each blade is cleaned with a soft polishing to remove any buildup of hair or chemical residue.
4) Each blade is fine wet-honed and polished to the correct cutting angle consistent with the design of the blade.
5) Worn movement parts such as the set washer and rubber bumber/silencer are replace as needed.
6) Each blade is cleaned and the blades are re-assembled.
7) The tips are then checked for appropriate overlap engagement and rounded smooth as needed.
8) The set of the blades are checked for appropriate spring contact.
9) The tension is set and adjusted.
10) A 'cut test' is performed on both dry hair and wet hair for slippage or pushing of hair.
