I do not like beltgrinders 
My tools can sharpen scissors, both flat and convex edges - thins soon 20 years back in time. I even hade a special tool, EdgePal Barber, just for scissors.
In my opinion, the convex sphere must be fully controled in the angles. That means that there must be a starting point and. Stop point dor tye convex sphere - and in my way of thinking, this two points have both degrees.
Also on scissors the convex sphere are different, some holds 6 degrees ore more, others hold 2 degrees - or less. This means that the tool must have a function that can be adjusted to any wanted convex sphere - with. Startpoint and stop point in known and wanted degrees.
With this function tye edge, and the convex sphere, can be maintained without any change of the convex sphere and the degrees there is on the cutting edge.
It is also possible with a tool like this to make micro serrations so that free hanging hair can be cutted without hair move between the scissors edges - and that also this micro serrations can be maintained.
Also, in my mind, a pro barber is the person that shall test the function of the edge that have been sharpened. Scissor works like ice drill edges - that must be tested on ice. There is no other way to test ice drill edges. They will work - or not work at all. The edge must be perfect for just ice. It can be perfectly sharp - but not drill at all in ice...
When I constructed EdgePal Barber I work together with barbers that tested the scissor I had sharpened.
i acted from the barbers opinion, experiances and thoughts about the scissor worked and change the edge from that - and let the batbers test the edge again. That was a good way to go in my opinion.
Many barbers use very expensive scissors. I have sharpen scissors that cost more then 1500 USD - and I am responsible for the scissor - and the function of the scissor = i cannot destroy the scissor becosue then I must by a new scissor to the barber...
Today we also have another thing to ttink about...ceramic scissors with convex edge - and how to sharpen them...
