When were the scissors for cutting hair invented??For Men's hair??

Scissors have been around for so long, I think they were never invented specifically to cut hair. Hair cutting became just another use for the already very useful scissors. :-)





%26lt;%26lt;Scissors were likely invented in 1500 BC in ancient Egypt. [1] These were likely shears with the joint at the far end. [2] Cross-bladed scissors were invented by Romans around AD 100.





An immense stride in perfecting scissors was taken in 1761 when Robert Hinchliffe produced the first pair of modern-day scissors made of hardened and polished cast steel. He lived in Cheney Square, London and was reputed to be the first person who put out a signboard proclaiming himself ';fine scissor manufacturer';.[3]





In a part of Sweden (now in Finland) an ironworks was started 1649 in the hamlet ';Fiskars'; between Helsingfors and 脜bo. In 1830 a new owner started the first cutlery works in Finland, making among others scissors with the trade mark Fiskars. Fiskars Corporation introduced new methods in the manufacturing of scissors in 1967.[4].%26gt;%26gt;
