📌 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 set movement, direction, and layout quickly—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. On finer textures, favor shallow bites and test removal visually 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-size 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.
