from an amateur's perspective-they're great!
I'm not a stylist but I have five kids ages 11 months to 9 years and I like to save money however I can.  Cutting their hair by myself is definitely one thing I can do!  I still have lots of learning to do and this was my first time with thinning shears, but overall I'm happy with the finished product. I don't think most people are going to be looking closely enough to know I did a not-so-professional job. I'm looking forward to learning how to use these better as time goes on! They seem to be of great quality and I love that they come with a little storage container; that's really helpful to me!
