# Haircutting Clawz Scissorhands-Like Razor Clad Fingertips Style and Cut Coifs Quickly By Katie Cordrey | Published 2009-12-31 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/haircutting-clawz References: [whatsonxiamen](http://www.whatsonxiamen.com/news8957.html) & [clawz4hair](http://clawz4hair.com/index.html) Valentino LoSauro is called, “the real-life Edward Scissorhands,” but 'Razorfingers' might be more accurate. The hairdresser/pianist has invented 'Clawz by Valentino,' a set of razor-loaded fingertip devices that cut hair. The Clawz cut tool allows stylists to work directly with their fingers to mold and layer hair. Valentino claims that Clawz fingers give a more precise and stylish cut than is possible with conventional hairstyling tools. **Implications** - The featured video shows LoSauro using his haircutting Clawz on his clients' hair. The Clawz are the first of their kind in the entire world. LoSauro says, "the ‘Clawz’ were born as a simple idea to bring a musicality to hair styling." They must get the job done extremely well because people are starting to flock to LoSauro's salon. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.0/10 - Popularity: 78% | Activity: 93% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Hair](https://www.trendhunter.com/hair) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Razor-loaded Fingertip Tools:** The invention of Clawz by Valentino showcases the trend of using razor-loaded fingertip devices for precise and stylish haircuts. - **Direct Finger Styling:** The ability to mold and layer hair directly with fingers is a disruptive innovation opportunity for hairstylists. - **Music-inspired Hair Styling:** Valentino's Clawz bring a musicality to hair styling, reflecting a trend of combining music and fashion. ### Where This Applies - **Hair and Beauty:** The hair and beauty industry can benefit from the introduction of Clawz, providing stylists with a unique tool for creative and precise haircuts. - **Fashion and Accessories:** The fashion and accessories industry can explore partnerships with Valentino to create stylish and functional razor-loaded fingertip devices. - **Inventive Tools and Gadgets:** The invention of Clawz by Valentino highlights the trend of innovative and specialized tools in various industries, including hairstyling. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Self-Haircutting Clippers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wahl-self-cut-pro.md) - [Adventure-Focused Hair Clippers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hair-clipper.md) - [Precise Angular Nail Clippers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rotating-nail-clipper.md) - [Rotating Ergonomic Nail Clippers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rotating-clipper.md) - [Guitar-Shaped Cutting Scissors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nikken-cutlery.md) - [Lever-Integrated Nail Clippers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/klhip.md) - [Pro-Grade Hair Clippers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wahl-professional-kuno-clipper.md) - [Balding Blade Clippers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/5star-vapor.md) - [Bag-Shaped Hair Clips](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tresemm-x-luar.md)
