I’m a salon manager and it’s been very hard to find and keep shear guys. Eric did 4 of my stylist shears and we all love his work. My shears haven’t cut this well in years.

Great work and communication. Eric went the extra mile today to get my shears back same day. Not that I would ask that normally, but it's nice to know he'll come through when I really need him.

I was looking for a shear sharpener everywhere when i stubbled apon him, he more then met my expectations. A quick drop off and he even gave me a pair of loaner shears as mine were being sharpended and when i received my Shears back they were beyond sharp and ready to cut hair. Immaculate service thank you again.

Eric the Scissor Doctor is the best in town! I’ve serviced my (very expensive) shears with his competitors and I always end up going back to him. I’ve had my shears for years and i’ve dropped them many times but he makes them just as good as new! Highly recommended!

Eric is very knowledgeable about shears and answered all my questions about which ones I should get and which ones I should stay away from. My shears always come out super sharp and stay sharp for a very long time. Highly recommended.

Found Eric on google a few weeks back. Drove down to Vegas (I live in St. George) and was very pleased with his work! He'll leave your shears feeling better than brand new! I will definitely be a returning customer. Well worth the drive!

My experience with Eric from Scissor Doctor was one of amazement and 100% satisfaction. I needed servicing on my Japanese metal shears and also a pair of thinning shears. In short, all aspects of the service exceeded my expectations in every way, from the results of the sharpening service, pricing, to turnaround time. Details of each aspect below.Sharpening service - My regular cutting shears came back razor sharp and cut like brand new. Smooth cutting action, quiet and glides like as it was cutting through air while producing results as if cutting for the first time. My thinning shears unfortunately had bent teeth's and were snagging/ripping hair when I brought it in for servicing and Eric attempted to repair/sharpening but due to the amount of damage I had already done to the teeth, it was not repairable but regardless, he still attempted to service it in ever aspect from sharpening, adjustment to the tension and every service that can be done so it can serve as a backup thinning shear.Pricing - While browsing on his website, it did not provide a set pricing and it showed a range pricing, once the specific service was discussed and agreed upon, the quoted price was absolutely reasonable so please do not let his website's "range" pricing discourage you from considering his service. What left even more of a memorable impression was the fact that upon picking up my shears, the pricing was adjusted based on to the actual produced result of the service as to the quoted service. While in my case, it was a better pricing due to my thinning shears being bent, but Eric did still attempt to repair and sharpen the shears, however he adjusted the final pricing as he was not able to sharpen even though it was no fault of his at all. While each person's experience will be unique and dependent upon the circumstances, but a most noteworthy part of my experience and a most definite long lost respectable business practice lost.Turnaround time - provided a 24 hour turnaround time, very very quick and most accommodating to my schedule for pickup time. Absolutely no complaints and extremely satisfied.

Eric did fantastic with my Mizutani Black Smith shear. It fell and chipped a large chunk of the blade. It’s like brand new, fast service! I will definitely continue to see him with all my shears.

Eric, aka Scissor Doctor, restored a pair of work scissors that belonged to my late father.He worked at Pacific Bell. We had a few pairs of these grwoung up in our home. My mom gave me a pair. They would not cut they were a mess. I found Eric online and asked if they could refurbished. He said he would do his best. They came back to me like new. I have an emotional tie to these scissors, not weird, they fill the void of me missing my family. Eric said they should be used but I want to carry them with me everyday. Funny and strange i know. Who knew a pair of scissors could bring you peace and happiness. If you have a special pair of scissors I highly recommend him. His service and craftsmanship was beyond my expectations. THANK YOU ERIC!!!Toni Wilson

As a stylist having sharp shears is a must. As a sharkfin shear owner I have to use someone certified through them to keep my warranty. Well, I’ve been holding off getting my favorite go to swivel shears sharpened because they are my fave and a day without them is a sad day! I contacted Sharkfin and I was referred to Eric. I contacted him immediately and he not only had my shears in his hand less then an hour later, but I had them back the next morning! His professionalism, promptness, and skill set is setting the bar high!!! Thanks Eric for making my favorite shears cut like butter again!!! 100% recommend and will be sharing your info with all my fellow stylists!!!

Great job and very reasonable prices.Eric took my shears on a weekend, had me drop them off at his home and had them ready the next day.I've been waiting to post a review as I haven't really put them to work since I picked them up for more than snipping thread. I just used them to trim 4 layers of salvage from the edge of a blanket that I was squaring up and they handled it effortlessly!!!These technically are not even that great a set of scissors, but are one of my favorite as they are so comfortable in the hand, so I'm doubly thrilled that Eric was able to extend their life for me!!! 😁

I will definitely be trusting SD with all my shears. I was nervous at first about sending them off in the mail. But I saw that they are accredited by the BBB & had awesome reviews which made me feel better about it. Very personal interaction- both email & Instagram. My shears cut better than the day I bought them. Can’t thank you enough! 😊😭🙏🏼

Wonderful experience! Highly recommend Scissor Doctor. I live 150 miles from any major city. I mailed out my shears to the Scissor Doctor on a Tuesday and received them back that Friday. Super fast turn around time. Shears arrived in great shape & the packaging was efficient!

Eric not only has great skills and services, he also has amazing customer support. He made me feel confident in his ability to properly sharpen my shears and he gave me a lot of great information about longterm care for my tool, that was not taught to me in hair school. He was able to get my shears sharpened within 30 min. I will be going back to him for future sharpening.

I am thrilled with Eric’s level of service AND his expertise. We are from out of town and we’re only in Vegas for the night and Eric was kind enough to meet us on a Saturday to have my wife’s grooming shears sharpened. She is a new groomer and didn’t know much about the process and Eric took the time to explain and teach her about what to look for. He went above and beyond and the scissors were sharper than when they were new. We have found the ONLY person we will trust with all of her shears in the future. You won’t find someone that will do a better job!

If you want impeccable service and razor-sharp shears, you need to have Eric sharpen your scissors. Indeed his business name describes him perfectly. He is the scissor doctor. He brought seven pairs of scissors back to factory specs. In the future, I wouldn’t let anyone else touch my shears.

I have upholstery shears .A few months back I tried getting them sharpened by a shop and got them back but they wouldn’t cut tried another guy to fix them still turned out bad $86 later I made one more attempt and called the scissor doctor. I have never had an edge on my shears like this before, not even when they were new! The Best ever he even brought the tips together that nobody else could do. Eric is a magician the best ever

Best scissor doctor ever !!! Not only sharpening, he knows the scissors in and out. Finds what's wrong with sheers and fixed them. My scissors are now better than when I bought them as new. Also, he knows how to sharpen the curved scissors, not many do, but he does. And his service is fast, not like taking several days. I can say he is the best!.

I had a great experience with Eric, my shears are doing great after he sharpened them about 4 months ago. I was using Rocky ( he sharpened Shears for a lot of stylist in Vegas) but he retired and I was very happy to get a referral to the Scissor Doctor. Very please with Eric work! Thanks again Scissor Doctor.!! I’ll definitely use you again!

Eric is fantastic! So happy I found him. Im a groomer and work at a vet hospital. He made my shears cut like a dream, better now then when I first purchased them! He also did all the scissors for the hospital and did everything in 1 night. He picked them all up Friday night and by Saturday morning he showed up to bring our stuff back. He really knows what he's talking about. Not only is he good at what he does but he's such a pleasure to work with and will text back and forth. How he treated me was exceptional 👏

I got two pairs of shears sharpened a few days ago by Eric. He was extremely professional and let me know exactly what needed to be done for them. One of my pairs was completely bent at the tips and he made them like brand new again! I would highly recommend him for any of your shear needs.

I bought a pair of Mizutani Acro type Z2 shears from Eric and am so impressed by the company and the man I’ve done business with. I called him multiple times debating which shears to go with, he explained the sharpening process and gave me loads of information. So happy I went local.

We do dog grooming, for 25 years plus!! If you groom pets, I do not recommend. He charges premium price and has VERY LITTLE experience with pet blades. He told me this AFTER I had to call back. Blades are not clean, still dirt and rust, not oiled and are not sharp.
