TweezermanStainless Steel Ingrown Hair Splintertweeze for Women and Men

These are great! Best tweezers I’ve purchased so far. Great for my daily hair splinters!

These tweezers are the best that I've ever used. They are sharp and close tightly. Most others on the market are misaligned and dull.

It pulls hair out, who knew?

Amazing tweezers, but I have to say the edges are not very smooth when I’m using them a bit on the sharp side

Living in a 100 year old building with old wood floors, I got these tweezers specifically for splinter removal. I thought they'd be extremely sharp, needle-nose tweezers, much like biomedical tweezers. Unfortunately, that is not the case. You can press them firmly against your skin without feeling a sharp sensation.Ironically, the *regular* Tweezerman slant-angle tweezers are sharper. I got both at the same time, and I ended up using the regular tweezers to remove a splinter than I could not successfully remove with the Splintertweeze.

I accidently bent my previous needle nose tweezers so they wouldn't grasp fine hairs anymore. I bought these as a replacement. Apparently my previous ones were not "ingrown" hair tweezers so the end of the points were a little more blunt. These are good and they do grasp the fine hairs but I have to be a little more care with them as the points are quite sharp.

I was looking for a set of solid, quality tweezers that I could depend on. Tweezerman seemed to have a good reputation so I ordered 3 different pairs in Classic Stainless. (1) Slant Tweezer (2) Point Tweezer (3) Ingrown Hair / Splinter Tweezer. My initial reaction after receiving them is that they seem nice with tips that form a tight grip. Upon closer inspection, I noticed that the edges along the handle on all three pairs were not “finished” well and had metal shavings / metal splinters. See attached photos. I had to sand the handle edges with 400 grit sandpaper to remove the metal splinters on all three pairs of tweezers.Pros:o Tips grip well and meet flusho Stainless steel material of good qualityCons:o Poor manufacturing process for handleso Poor quality control of handleso Relatively expensiveConclusion:I decided to keep all three pairs after sanding the handle edges to remove metal shavings and metal splinters. If I were to purchase Tweezerman again, I would buy the “coated” ones as the coating may eliminate this problem with the rough handle edges. Also, I probably wouldn’t purchase the “Ingrown Hair / Splinter Tweezer” since the tip seems almost identical to their “Point Tweezer”. Tweezermans are expensive. The regular 3.69” tweezers needed to be purchased separately and were not sold in sets at time of purchase (only the mini/petite size seemed to be sold in paired sets). Tweezer Guru sells a nice set of four tweezers which I also own – the tips aren’t quite as precise as the Tweezerman, but you get a set of 4 different tweezers for about half the price of just one Tweezerman tweezer.Country of Manufacture:All three pairs were made in India by Tweezerman India.

After purchasing a pair of Tweezerman slant tweezers and finding them excellent, I decided to buy this pair of "needle point" tweezers to deal with fine wood or metal splinters.Their overall length is 4 and 5/16 inches. Their tips are definitely pointy, but not as sharp as a needle. I would ballpark them at around half a millimeter. So, for deeply buried splinters or hairs, you may still need to use a needle. That said, the tips are extremely precisely aligned. How good are they? Well, as I was measuring the tweezers for this review, I noticed a hair that measured about a millimeter long lying flat on the piece of paper in front of me. I tried picking it up with the tweezers, and had no problem. I tried five more times, turning the tweezers over to be sure that one side did not grip better than the other, and it worked each time. Now that's a good tweezer!Keep in mind that these are probably not a good 'all purpose' tweezer. Depending on how hard you squeeze them together, the contact area measures anywhere from hard-to-see-with-the-naked-eye to about a millimeter. That's not enough surface area to give a strong grip on anything but hairs and fine splinters. For larger objects, you'll want the slant tip style, which contacts across a much wider tip, therefore giving you a better grip. (Incidentally, Tweezerman's slant tip tweezers also have relatively sharp tips on them.)These come with a rubber tip protector. It's a good idea to keep them in this when you're not using them. With tips so fine, I'm sure that accidentally dropping them tip first would bend them out of alignment.For most tweezer tasks, Tweezerman's Slant Tip Tweezers will do just fine. But if you have some work to do that's a little more delicate, buy these with confidence!
