MICHIKO® scissors are manufactured in the world's best forging factory in Japan. We use hot forged Hitachi ATS 314 steel, which has long-lasting durability that cannot be compared with other hair scissors.

Our trade secret lies in the unique heat treatment process, in a vacuum furnace dedicated to MICHIKO® scissors to enhance durability further. We are proud of our advanced heat treatment technology, developed by a Japanese scientist with a PhD. in Metallurgy.

To produce the original 3D handle we are known for, we communicate and collaborate directly with the hairdressers themselves. No matter how many dozens of molds it takes, we never stop working to give you the excellent grip, sharp snip, and precise cutting action you desire.

Professional hair cutting scissors are not instruments open to creative expression. They are tools that MUST feature the most precise measurements that never let you down. MICHIKO® scissors use the latest technology and cutting-edge machines to make more precise scissors.
