Scaredy Cut Silent Clipper and TINY TRIM Scissor Package, Blue

These have arrived sooner than expected and I have to say they have exceeded my expectations. They are great quality and our dog likes me using them. Our dog was ok at the groomer until the last appointment we had before lockdown when he suddenly didn’t like the noise of the dryers etc. I was planning to start taking him again soon but I was worrying about it (and dealing with him hating the groomer on top of everything else in this pandemic just felt like too much) so thought I’d order this for now to trim his beard etc. He wasn’t having it when I tried human electric clippers we already have (maybe he’s associating that with whatever sounds he didn’t like at groomers) and I frankly don’t have the energy right now for long drawn out training. I had tried with regular hair scissors but worried about him moving suddenly and poking him. These are a wonderful alternative! He loved getting brushed and combed so this is very easy to incorporate into that. I just brush him them comb him with the attachment on the scissors then after a minute cut the hair. He doesn’t care at all and sits still. When I stop he asks for more combing ha ha. The little set of scissors included is very useful too for around his eyes and toes etc. Our dog is 3/4 lab and 1/4 poodle and weirdly his hair only grows long on his face, bottom and paws so it feels like this set is going to take the place of the groomer for me - even if things go back to normal. If our dog needed his whole body cut all the time it would maybe be different. Although if I had a dog that needed that and other ways weren’t working I’d definitely give it a go with these, it would just take a while. Just don’t expect it to be as easy as with electric clippers! These are just well made scissors with safety ends and attachable guides. I watched some of the Scaredy cut videos online before the set came and I did feel it gave me simple pointers on what to do. Again, very glad I ordered these. Easy to use, dog likes it, and it will likely save me money. Win-win-win! Update June 2021: This set has been one of my best ever buys. My dog loves it, gets excited when I get it out now, and really seems to ENJOY me giving him a trim with it! I’ve given him a summer cut and he was delighted getting it done and is enjoying being cooler now. I have got better using it over time too. Really pleased.

The concept is wonderful, and the shipping time was pretty much exactly as stated, but the scissors were not adequately sharp to easily trim fur, and while the blades can be separated, only the one side can be sharpened. The welded guard mount prevents sharpening of the serrated blade, and the part with the guard was near the tip, which is where the blade most needed sharpening. However, the mini scissors are wonderful, and worked extremely well for a cat who laid still. Disappointed that the guards cannot be easily used by a single person unless the blades are sharp enough.

I got this product about 2 weeks ago and the scardey cut scissors have been perfect for my anxious dog. It has finally solved the problem of my dog not allowing us to cut his hair with electric clippers. However I also paid extra for the Tiny Trim scissors but on the first use the screw fell out and doesn't stay in, you make 2 cuts and the screw loosens and doesn't work. I have been promised a replacement for the seller but haven't received anything and have not received any answer to my messages. If I were to have a working Tiny Trim scissors for the small areas then this would be a 5 star product

my rescued poodle cross used to rip me apart when being groomed, who knows what horrid experiences he has endured. He will happily sit to be trimmed with this. Thank you from both of us

Our new dog does not mind them at all and they are so easy to use. GREAT product - wish I had learned about them before.
