Care
Caring for your scissors
Common questions from professionals using Ichiro scissors day to day.
How often should I oil my Ichiro scissors?
Clean and dry the scissors after use. Add a small amount of oil specifically described as compatible with professional scissors when the pivot needs it or when the model instructions recommend it, then wipe away any excess.
Can I sharpen convex-edge scissors myself?
Do not attempt to sharpen professional scissors yourself. Ask a technician who is experienced with the blade geometry of your exact model; unsuitable equipment or technique can alter the edge and cutting feel. See our sharpening guidance before arranging service.
How do I know when my scissors need professional sharpening?
You often feel it before you see it: the scissor may start to fold or push hair rather than cut cleanly. Service timing varies with use, technique, material, and daily care, so ask a technician experienced with the exact model's blade geometry to assess it when the cutting feel changes.
What oil should I use?
Use an oil or care product specifically described as compatible with professional scissors and the model's finish. If the product instructions are unclear, confirm with the seller before applying it. Do not improvise with cooking oil or penetrating spray.
Do Ichiro scissors come with a warranty?
Terms vary by product, seller, and market. Keep the written terms and proof of purchase, then ask the original seller to confirm eligibility. You can also submit product details on the registration page; registration itself does not confirm or extend coverage.
