I wasn’t sure at first, but gave these a two day trial period. Now I am super glad to have them and happy that I didn’t let my initial feelings get in the way.They have an excellent slight curve PERFECT for faces. They are sharp and the grips that came with are cute. The initial unsure feeling I believe came from how much heavier they felt in my hand compared to some of my other scissors. Not a huge difference, but noticeable. Despite that I would absolutely purchase again.
