The Ichiro Kawa texturizing shears redefine professional texture creation with their revolutionary Z-Balance handle and lightweight design. Available in two specialized tooth configurations to match your texturizing style.
Built around Ichiro's groundbreaking Z-Balance handle system, these shears cradle your hand in the perfect ergonomic position for detailed texturizing work, dramatically reducing the hand fatigue that plagues stylists during texture-heavy cuts.
The V-shaped teeth are crafted using advanced 2030s laser technology, ensuring clean cutting without pulling or creasing – just beautiful, seamless texture that blends perfectly with your cutting technique.
Significantly lighter than traditional texturizing shears without sacrificing performance, these tools let you create texture for hours without the wrist strain common with heavier designs.
14-Tooth Chunker (35-40% Removal): The bold texture specialist. These create dramatic, visible texture and remove substantial weight in a single pass. Perfect for shags, heavily layered cuts, and removing bulk from thick hair types. Creates noticeable movement and definition – ideal for modern, lived-in styles that demand visible texture.
30-Tooth Blender (20-25% Removal): The versatile all-rounder. These create subtle, natural-looking texture and seamless blending. Perfect for refining layers, softening lines, and creating invisible movement. The sweet spot for most stylists – enough texture to make a difference without removing too much weight. Ideal for everyday salon work across all hair types.
Both feature the same revolutionary Z-Balance handle and premium construction – your choice depends on the type of texturing you do most often. Many professionals keep both on hand for different style needs.
The Kawa's standout feature is its innovative Z-Balance handle design. Unlike traditional offset handles, the Z-shaped ergonomics create multiple contact points that distribute pressure evenly across your hand and wrist.
This unique contour positions your thumb slightly forward and angled for optimal leverage, while the finger ring is precisely positioned to maintain control without straining your knuckles.
For texturizing work, which often requires extended periods of detailed cutting, this ergonomic approach makes a dramatic difference – reducing hand fatigue and allowing for more precise, controlled texture creation.
Stylists who've struggled with wrist pain or hand fatigue find this design revolutionary, particularly during those texture-heavy styles that demand extended detailing work.
"Been using both Kawa texturizers in my studio for about 3 months now. The 14-tooth is my go-to for those trendy shags and heavily textured cuts that are everywhere right now. Takes out serious weight but without that choppy look lesser shears leave behind.
The 30-tooth is my everyday workhorse. Perfect for subtle texture, blending layers, and those lived-in finishes clients can't get enough of. Clean cuts everytime – no snagging or pulling even on curly hair.
That Z handle is something else. I used to get this burning pain in my thumb joint after texture-heavy appointments, but it's completely gone since switching to these. The angle just works with how your hand naturally wants to move.
Love how light they are compared to my old texturizers. Makes those detail-heavy cuts way less tiring. Even my assisstant noticed the difference when I let her try them during her training sessions.
If you're on the fence about which tooth count to get – the 30 is more versatile for everyday use, but if you do a lot of shags and heavily textured cuts, the 14 is a game-changer. Honestly though, I ended up getting both and use them constantly."

Japan Scissors supports customers with clear shipping, return and warranty information. Eligible U.S. orders may ship from the U.S., Japan, Australia or approved supply partners depending on stock and the fastest reliable route.
Returns and exchanges are available within 30 days of delivery with return authorization. Approved U.S. returns are processed through our Laguna Beach, California returns address.
Warranty support is brand and model specific, and applies to confirmed manufacturing defects. Normal dulling, tension adjustment, wear, misuse, chemical damage and improper sharpening are not warranty defects.
Before judging sharpness, check the tension. New professional shears can feel loose or tight after shipping, and a small tension adjustment often fixes hair folding, pushing or uneven cutting.
Clean and dry the blades after use, oil the pivot area, and avoid cutting paper, fabric, plastic, wire or anything other than hair. Use a professional sharpener familiar with hair shears.

Ichiro Premium Series: Tsuki VG10 Black Cutting & Texturizing Shear Set
Love the shears! Sharp blades and light for everyday use. Only issue was the style was not the style I originally purchased. The tensioner was supposed to be green instead of red. Still a great pair of shears and customer service worked with me to make things right! Will definitely purchase another from this company! Thank you! :)
The scissors look very nice, good quality and super sharp!
Why do you have it stated that pre-orders can be made but the button on your site does not work? Why when I write in Direct I don't get a reply about ordering these scissors? Why do you have irresponsible attitude to your work? Will I finally get a reply or not?
They were a bit heavy for my liking but they were so beautiful and sharp
It's amazing! Really happy with the Smooooth haircut's! 🙏
I was thrilled when they arrived to discover that the quality was top notch. I am absolutely in love with my new scissors. Thank you so much.
As a rookie groomer for dogs I can say it makes it mich easier. No hair Pulling! Just gliding!
Really pretty scissors. They fit perfectly in my hand and are really firm, but so light. Feather grip! So lucky I got them on sale! Fast Delivery! Good Service!
I'm in love! These are so cute and I was worried about cutting thick hair and avoid splits. But these are perfect and makes me look like a pro. Thaank you! :)
They are the perfect size and weight! I was worried about the heavy scissors hurting my wrist, and these are perfect! Laurie
I bought these for my granddaughter since she graduated from beauty school and now has a job in a salon. She absolutely loves them! They fit her hands perfectly and cut with ease. I’m so happy I bought them!
Excellent choice!
Love my new chompers! Just what I was l👀king for! The weight the size and the blade all beautiful.
Everything is great
My fingers stick in the shears I’m having a hard time using them
I was disappointed with these scissors. The blades are not sharp enough to make clean, precise cuts. They struggle even with light use and require extra pressure, which makes them uncomfortable to work with. Unfortunately, they did not meet my expectations, and I wouldn’t recommend them.
Amazing shears!!
Great shears , great price
nice scissors doesn't seem like it gave me any split ends
Near the adjuster was scraped, they sound very squeaky .
.good.
Sharp!
Superior packaging. Felt like a katana was being gifted to me. lol
I don’t receive the product
Love the scissors and all the little extras that come in the box but sadly after cutting with them for 6 weeks now my blades are already dull. I have no problem getting them sharpened. I was just disappointed because I thought I finally found a pair that I wouldn’t have to get sharpened all the time. I guess I just do too many haircuts🫤
You fuckin' communication sucks and so does your shipping scam!
Christmas gift for my eldest daughter, a hair stylist.. She loves them..
Packaged well and items arrived safely and as described.
Arrived in a timely manner
Exquisite
Beautiful scissors. Great shopping experience. Shipped promptly. Very happy.
Very sharp. Cut great
Amazing quality, shipping to the US was faster than expected! My partner loves them, they’re starting cosmetology school in march!
