Why are Yasaka shears the best!
Yasaka shears were first introduced to American hairdressers over 30 years ago by Geri Cusenza, the visionary founder of Sebastian International. Tens of thousands of pairs were sold, and they quickly became the industry standard for performance, durability, and outstanding value.
What truly sets Yasaka apart is their unique two-part design — a masterful blend of traditional Japanese forging techniques, precision modern machining, and skilled hand craftsmanship.
Today, the company is still family-owned and operated by the founder’s grandson. Even in its third generation, every pair of Yasaka shears is still proudly made in Nara, Japan. The boutique-style ownership continues to use premium ATS-314 cobalt stainless steel for the blades, ensuring exceptional edge retention and performance.
The result? A timeless design that has remained virtually unchanged for decades. Many of the original Yasaka shears sold over 30 years ago are still in daily use and deeply loved by their owners.
