History
KYONE was founded in 1999 by two Dutch entrepreneurs with the vision of creating premium-quality tools for professional hairdressers. One of the founders had already established a strong reputation in the Netherlands as an expert scissor sharpener, giving the company a unique understanding of blade geometry, cutting performance, balance, and long-term durability. This technical expertise became the foundation of the KYONE brand. [1]
The company’s first products focused primarily on:
- Professional scissors
- Hair styling tools
- Electrical salon equipment
Over time, KYONE earned recognition across Europe for delivering reliable products backed by strong customer service and technical support. [1]
Expansion into Barber Equipment
A major milestone came in 2015, when KYONE expanded into professional barber equipment after years of research and development. The company introduced its own line of hair clippers, detail trimmers, and electric shavers. These products significantly broadened KYONE’s portfolio and strengthened its position within the professional barber industry. The expansion reflected changing trends in men’s grooming and the growing demand for precision barbering tools. [1]

KYONE emphasizes several core principles:
- Professional performance
- Precision engineering
- High-quality materials
- Ergonomic design

According to the company, every product is designed, tested, and refined specifically for professional use rather than the consumer market. [1]
