The scissors emoji shows a standard pair of scissors with either a red, purple or dark grey handle. In some versions – such as on Apple’s iOS and Samsung – the scissors have sharp edges, while other platforms show the scissors as blunt, craft scissors, similar to those used by children. The emoji can be used both literally and figuratively to represent scissors and anything which requires cutting. It can be used to suggest someone is about to get their hair cut, though the person getting hair cut emoji would be more specific. It can also represent the phrasal verbal “cut it out”, meaning to stop or desist.
