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.

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.
