Real Life Edward Scissorhands

Move over, Johnny Depp. There's a new Edward Scissorhands in town, and he cuts hair. With Clawz. Yep, you read that right. Here's Valentino LoSauro who invented a new way to cut hair:

"The idea came to me in the late 90's," he said.

"I am a pianist as well as a hairdresser and wanted to combine that light fingered touch with my styling. So the 'Clawz' were born as a simple idea to bring a musicality to hair styling. When I cut the hair I use methods I call 'Flight of the Bumblebee and 'Zap'.

Bending his fingers to contract the razor in the fingertip claws, Mr LoSauro had to relearn his hair cutting technique completely.

"It took me a couple of years from the launch of the prototype in around 2001 to become really proficient with them," said Valentino. "Now though I can motor through hair cuts and they are much quicker than usual scissors.

I would actually trust these more than the razors they typically use. It appears that the blades are at least covered.
