6-Inch Hairdressing Scissors
6 inch hairdressing scissors (about 15 cm) are the most versatile length: long enough for wide sections and perimeters, agile enough for point cutting and detailing. In 6″ you will find TL PRO and TK MASTER for cutting, and the DENTATA FLOW, TEU630 PRO and TUX625 ELITE thinning and texturizing shears.
Why 6 inches is the most used length
6″ is the balance between control and reach: it cuts medium sections in one pass, follows perimeters and stays precise in the details. That is why it is often a hairdresser's first professional pair and the standard length for toothed shears. If you cut women's and men's hair, wet and dry, a 6″ covers most of your daily work.

| TL PRO | 6″ (also 5.5″) | Straight, fine tip | Point cutting, detailing, clean perimeters |
| TK MASTER | 6″ (also 5.5″) | Very flat, fine tip | Geometric cuts and clean lines |
6″ thinning and texturizing shears

6 inch cutting scissors: TL PRO or TK MASTER?
The 6″ TL PRO has a straight handle and a fine tip: the versatile pair for outlines, wet cutting and finishing. The 6″ TK MASTER has a very flat blade designed for geometric shapes and clean lines. Both are in steel and also available in 5.5″ (see the 5.5 inch scissors).
6 inch thinning and texturizing shears
All TOUCH toothed shears are 6″. DENTATA FLOW and TEU630 PRO are two 30-tooth thinning shears with a semi-offset handle and ball bearing, for removing bulk and lightening heavy hair. The double-tooth TUX625 ELITE is for texture, blending and seamless transitions. To find out which suits you, read thinning shears or texturizing shears and see all the professional thinning shears.
When to choose a different length
If you do a lot of slide cutting on long hair, fades or scissor over comb, a 6.5 inch or 6.8 and 7 inch blade covers more. If you mainly work on detailing, consider 5.5″. The TOUCH Cutting system combines several lengths and functions in one kit.
