Caralee of The Scissor Mall answers the question: what is a true-left handed shear? Many stylists have been told that a right handed shear flipped over, is a left handed shear, but it is not. For a true left handed scissor, the sharp edge of the top blade is on the left-hand side of the blade or points to the left.
