Where this sits
In Yoi's cutting scissors lineup the Yoi Control occupies the entry-level tier, priced between the Yoi Black Gloss Offset and the Yoi Chopper.
The Yoi Control is a 6-inch offset cutting scissor made from Japanese 440C steel, available direct from Yoi at £99 (ex-VAT). The flat tension screw sits flush against the handle for quick adjustment without tools, and the offset handle positions the thumb lower than the finger ring to reduce wrist elevation during cuts.
The set configuration includes a matching 30-tooth soft-cut texturiser, a Japanese-made comb, hair clips, and a protective case — making the Control a full starter kit at a single price point. The blades have a convex grind suited to a range of cutting techniques.
