safety scissors are as advertised

The safety scissors arrived in a timely fashion, despite challenges caused by the California wildfires. As with all products, I wish they were not packaged in plastic. Our (almost) 3 year old can cut paper easily. We adults confirmed they don't cut hair or cloth.

Safety Scissors

These safety scissors cut paper really well. It is much easier doing crafts even with my littlest kids since I do not have to worry as much. My daughter is left-handed and says they are comfortable.

Magic!

These scissors are like magic! They truly will not cut clothes or hair! Coworker and I tried several items (including her hair - she's so brave!). I was amazed! I figured if it would not cut the other items, it would just tear or give a super-rough cut to the paper. Nope these cut beautifully and with ease! So Impressed that I bought more!!! Great for littles and no worries from adults.
