The Veevus I have, in sizes 6 & 8, is not GPS. They might make a GPS...don't know. The few times I have used UTC GPS it was difficult to cut with the tip of the scissors. It is strong. Guess I'll try it some more in the future and use wax as suggested. By the way, I bought the size 100 denier to spin hair. Probably should have gotten a smaller size given the strength.
