Overview
Misaki is a USA based scissor brand headquartered in Paramount, California. The company operates under its parent entity MISAKI and sells through its own website at misakishears.com as well as through third party retailers.
Product Range
Misaki’s catalog covers cutting scissors, thinning scissors, left handed scissors, and razors. Their specialties lean toward wet to dry cutting, texturizing, thinning, blending, volume control, and texture control. That range of focus suggests a lineup built for stylists who need versatility across multiple services in a single day.
The brand sits in a mid range price tier (price range 3), which positions it alongside many other professional brands targeting working stylists rather than the ultra premium market.
Distribution
Misaki products are available directly from their official site and through Williamsport Bowman’s online store. The company states it has over 40 years of experience in the barbering and styling supply space, though ScissorPedia has not independently verified this claim.
What to Know
According to Misaki, the brand started as a barber and stylist supply shop and expanded into its own line of shears and razors. Their physical location is at 15737 Garfield Ave in Paramount, CA. For stylists in the Southern California area, that means the option to try tools in person before buying, which is always worth doing when picking out new shears.
