Q: How should I clean my tweezers?
A: Wipe the tips with surgical spirit or rubbing alcohol after each use, then let them air dry. Hand-crafted stainless steel will not corrode, so a regular clean keeps them hygienic without dulling the tips.
Q: Why will my tweezers not grab the hair?
A: Nine times out of ten it is residue rather than bluntness. Product build-up on the tips stops them closing cleanly, so wipe them with surgical spirit first. If they still slip, check the tips meet evenly when closed, and make sure you are gripping the hair close to the root rather than mid-strand.
Q: How long should a pair of tweezers last?
A: Years, with a little care. Keep the tips clean and store them somewhere they will not be knocked against harder objects, which is what pushes the points out of line.
