Mehaz ProfessionalDepil a Tweez Pointed Tip Nipper

I purchased this pair (fine tipped) along with another Mehaz pair (angled-tipped) after hearing about this brand from local beauty/grooming shops (I don't work in cosmetics or professional grooming, so my use of these tweezers will be limited to first aid or personal grooming purposes). Those accustomed to cheap tweezers will find the price disconcerting since these are marketed towards professional users. Since these tools will be in contact with the body, it is safer to use reputable tools.This pair of tweezers is made out of stainless steel that can be sanitized (autoclave?); it is about 3.75" in length and includes a plastic tip cover due to the pointy tip. The metal is a brush-finish and has an imprinted logo and model number. Packaging is a hinged plastic case that can be re-used to store and protect the tweezers. I'll go over the pros and cons...Pros:- Good construction and steel- Fine, pointy tip allows precision handling for delicate plucking- Functional, easy to open packaging- Tip cover helps prevent pokingCons:- Fine tip is more fragile (don't drop these tweezers!)- Less gripping power than larger tipped tweezersThey are overall good tweezers. These didn't see much use previously (other than plucking lint, small hairs, and threads off clothing), but they recently removed a very, very fine wood splinter from under my fingernail, so the fine tip is definitely handy for hard-to-reach particles.

I have purchased many of these tweezers in the past (6+) over the years. I like the shape of the tip which has a raised pad on the grabbing surface that allows me to pluck small hidden gray hairs without snagging a bunch of other hairs nearby. However, there is a serious problem with quality control. I recently purchased two sets of tweezers, and they came shipped together and in identical packaging. They had the same model number on the package, however they were not produced of the same metal thickness nor shaped identically. I have always needed to hone or reshape the tips to a better shape for my needs, I am just surprised at the lack of consistency with which they are produced. One set took .1 pound of force to close the other is set much wider and made of a thicker stiffer material that takes .5 pounds of force (on the tip) to close. I have included photos, and the last photo is a "tuned" freezer after my considerable modification.

So far this tweezer is amazing. I've been searching for a tweezer for my eyebrows that will not loose its grasp or point. This grabs even ingrown hairs, hairs just about to emerge, and even those fine, thin ones that you can never get out.

This tweezer was not what I expected. I have always used Mehaz tweezers and this one did not have the pointed and sharp tip that I am accustomed to from other Mehaz tweezers. It was like a cheap imitation and the tweezer did not grab any hair. It had a thickening of the metal near the point just like the cheap tweezers have. Very disappointing. Needless to say I cannot use it.

I bought this pair to replace a thirty year old pair of Mehaz tweezers; mind you, these tweezers are built to last!! Great seller, too!!! I received my order quickly. :)

I've always loved Mehaz tweezers. I've returned two recently. The tips are thicker than before, and they're not sharp at all. So disappointed.
