Before You Choose — High Removal & Groove Design
• High removal rate: With 50–55%, keep passes conservative on fine hair and build shape gradually.
• 10 oblique, wave-like grooves at each tooth tip support slide texturizing
(similar motion to slide cutting with a straight shear). Use light pressure and controlled angles, especially on dry hair.
• Thinners/Texturizers often serve for 10–15+ years. Investing in quality pays off over time.
Michiko Select M T1010 — 6.0″ 10T/10-Groove Offset Texturizer (50–55%)
M T1010 delivers maximum texture with control. The 10T/10-groove architecture creates a bold, even bite that seasoned stylists use to quickly set movement, direction, and layout—while preserving silhouette integrity.
Slide Texturizing — 10 Wave Grooves
The wave-tip grooves reduce drag and stabilize the bite during a light, controlled glide. Start on mid-lengths to tune section size, angle, and bite depth. For finer textures, favor shallow bites and visually check removal after each pass.
Cutting Applications — Layout · Debulk · High-Texture Finish
• Layout & direction control: set movement and flow efficiently.
• Fast interior debulking: reduce visual weight while preserving shape.
• High-texture finishing (dry): create airy diffusion and selective disconnection as needed.
Tip: Removal varies by section size, angle (0–45°), and bite depth—check weight visually between passes.
Offset Handle — Relaxed Wrist, Confident Control
The Offset geometry positions the thumb naturally to reduce wrist torque and squeeze during long services. A medium-sized thumb ring and permanent finger rest stabilize the grip for precise, repeatable passes in tight zones.
Premium Japanese Cobalt Alloy
Forged in Japan from Premium Japanese Cobalt Alloy for long edge life and a silky glide.
The true Convex Edge ensures clean entry and controlled exit with minimal push—ideal for repeatable texturizing passes.
Hardware includes an Adjustable Countersunk Screw and a Screw-in Bumper.
