Don't let your clippers dull; quickly sharpen them with a sharpening stone.
Clippers are scissors generally used to cut hair. If the clippers are dulled, they can make the hair look jagged and split, rather than a straight cut. Cutting wet hair, using the clippers daily or getting the clippers wet can make the blades dull. To keep them working at their best, they should be sharpened--and sharpened often. Sharpening the clippers only takes a few minutes and will instantly make the clippers work to their full potential.
Instructions
1. Hold the scissors in your dominant hand. Hold your sharpening stone in your other hand.
2. Slide the sharpening stone from the pivot (where the two blades intersect) to the point of the blade. Do this about 10 times down the first blade.
3. Turn the blade around so the second blade's point is resting on the table. Repeat Step 3 with the blade. Apply 10 strokes of the sharpening stone to the second blade as well.
4. Open and close the clippers quickly. Doing so will knock off burrs and/or shavings from the blades.
