    Default Trimming jigs


    I just want to share something I do. I use a lot of crystal flash and similar products. I usually need to trim the ends down. I found scissors like barbers use to thin hair. They both shorten the crystal flash and chop the ends making them irregular, and not looking like a paint brush. Walmart have them at a cheap price. Pop

    You must be using that for a tail huh? I don't use it for more than flash, so I want mine close to same length and don't need that kind of scissors, but I have some anyway. I don't use them much really.

    I don't either and really why I don't use synthetics for a tail unless it's like that Craft Fur, just don't care for that kind of paint brush look. Also guess my favorite is marabou, but it's not near awn tough as hair, but the action is unmatched.

    I have some of the scissors you talked about for the same purpose, but I only used it a few times and then just didn't tie things I need them for since that.
