Professional Opinion
"Finally, shears for stylists who prefer substance over flash. I've been using the Jay II 6.0" for four months now. The satin finish is genius. No glare means no squinting during precision work.
But what really sold me? That tension system. Set it once, forget it exists. No hair getting caught in exposed screws. No mid-cut adjustments. Just smooth, consistent cutting every single time.
The SUS440C steel is legit too. Still cutting like day one. These are working shears for working stylists. No unnecessary bling. Just quality that speaks for itself."

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.
Shipping was a breeze and the scissors are everything I had hoped for - they're sharp, cut well, and feel good in hand. They are sturdy and well-built, and adjusting tension with the provided tool is very easy. I had tried much cheaper scissors (~$12) that tugged and felt like they could cause more harm than good. I saw a review for Mina scissors and thought it was worth the splurge. Verdict: they absolutely are worth the price. You do not always get what you pay for, but in the case of this item, you're getting a top-tier product.
I was lied to buy customer care. They stated that they would send me the correct thinning shear and I have yet to receive or hear back from this company. I’m also not sure why my first review was not posted. Maybe this one will be in hopes that no one will buy from them.
I have to give this rating because I was sent the wrong pair of shears. However, my rating will improve if I ever receive the thinning shears that I ordered. Customer care did reach out to me, but I have not received anything nor a tracking number to track the items.
I ordered a pair of scissors and received a completely different product that had absolutely nothing to do with what was advertised. I contacted customer service the same day, and I was clearly assured that the issue would definitely be fixed.
After two weeks of silence, I finally received a message saying that the correct scissors had supposedly been shipped and that I should expect them last week. Of course, nothing arrived.
And now the final insult: today I was informed that the goods had already been delivered on December 8. This is simply untrue. I received nothing — no package, no delivery notice, no proof of delivery whatsoever.
This feels like deliberate deception. They took my money, admitted their mistake, promised a replacement, and then tried to close the case by claiming a fake delivery.
Nicely balanced, they came almost perfectly adjusted and I appreciated the videos you made available to learn "The Drop Test" to determine the correct tension!
Beautiful scissors! Great Price!
The only thing that I'd like to say is on is the fact that shipping was delayed for some time. I fully understand that it could be a policy of the flight department within Hong Kong.
I love my new shears exactly what I wanted, and they included great tips on caring for the shears. Excellent customer service, I would highly recommend Japan Scissors… I’m super happy and will be order Another pair soon.
My first purchase of hairdressing sheers. Have been using the whal in the kit sheers with mediocre results and satisfaction. The product I purchased was delivered as advertised. Shipping and delivery were days, not weeks... I am fully satisfied and no regrets.
Scissors are of great quality and arrived within expected delivery date. The set came with a care kit that included a microfiber cloth, pivot oil, tension tool, and instructions card. All great for a newbie like me. I expect to keep this set for quite a few many years. The website UI did make me a little nervous as a first time buyer, but really everything turned out fine.
A beautiful pair of Shears and thinning shears from the Brand Mina. The shears are much more professional than any American brands I've seen or used and ive been doing hair professionally for nearly 20 years. The packaging and warranty is also very nice. Thank you very much!!! I love them!.
Great selection available on Japan scissors. This pair is perfect for my needs as a beginner. Discount available as first time customer and shipping was very fast from Japan to US! highly recommend this site. Scissors are quality came with sharpener and cleaning cloth and information on manufacturing process
I’m a novice with no training and have been cutting my husband’s hair for 10 years. I just used my Mina scissors for the first time—what an amazing difference. I only cut once with no pushing of hair for an uneven cut. Outstanding! Highly recommend and worth the investment.
