Me and my sons went to Stonecreek for a haircut. I specifically asked the barber not to cut the front of my kids hair because they want to keep it long. The lady cut it anyway right after I told them not to. The lady kept saying it looks good, it looks good and disregarded my request. It seems like the business just cares about getting people in and out versus quality of service and listening to customer.
I have chin length hair, and usually go to a guy in Tustin for my regular cuts. I’ve been maintaining the undercut myself for the last 2 years and I’m tired of it. Im not sure if they just do men’s cuts but Tina had one of her girls do it for me. And she nailed it. Perfect fade! I’ll be coming back every 3-4 weeks to keep it up. So glad I found Tina’s shop!
Just moved to Irvine. Find this hidden germ barbershop from Yelp & google high rated reviews so I try it out. So far this is the best haircut that I got in state with a fairly good value price. I would recommend this barbershop to everyone. Also, Tina - the shop owner- who gave me the great haircut is also a very jubilant going person too. She will brighten up your day.
Excellent cut, made an appointment really easily, cheap for the area ($20 cash only), Tina was great. Definitely going to be a returning customer.
Absolutely great service here, better then other high cost barbers. Small hole in the wall but they give excellent cuts and beard trims.
Very easy walk in. Cheap and a great haircut, could not be recommend more.
I love this barber shop! I always get a great cut (even if I do say so myself) and the wait times havent been to bad during the pandemic.The barbers are always very careful to sanitize the surfaces and customers hands before entering.I recommend calling ahead of time to find out if they are busy or not.The prices are very reasonable as well and a bargain for the quality.
Really nice staff, Chris is a great barber and can fade like no other. The place is a little hard to find but its not impossible. Barber shop is not visible from your car but if you get out and walk, youll see it. Definitely coming back for my next cut!
First time here and definitely will be back. Perfect hair cut, very clean and super friendly. Will be my go-to place going forward.
Affordable and quality haircuts! Also staff is friendly. I enjoy coming here! If youre first time here, they only accept cash so be ready for that.
Im very picky with where i get a haircut or fade. I went in and sat with Chris. Would definitely recommend him. He did a great job with my fade and line up. And its affordable. Will go back to Chris again!
Ive been coming to Stonecreek Barber for just about two years now. Tina and the staff have always been great. Not only theyre skilled, theyre friendly and care about their service. When I first started coming here, they asked multiple questions on hair I want my cut, but it didnt take long for each of them to know what I want. I make the appointment, arrive, get the cut, and Im out. Very timely. Even on walk-ins, they communicate with the customers frequently and update the ones waiting.Well deserved 5 stars .
Clean place, affordable prices and reasonable service.The Chinese lady is friendly and welcoming.
Tina is the best, great with the fades too!
I’ve been coming to this barbershop with my son’s for a long time now about two years. They are good people that do a lot of haircuts during the day and they still manage to make our hair look good.They are standing for long hours at a time so for those people who are nitpicking at the barbershop about their ATM or that they only take cash or that they don’t do haircuts well maybe they should go to a hair salon instead and pay twice or triple as much. At $18 their haircuts here are reasonable quick and clean. Make sure you tell them exactly what you want or show them a picture and they will make it happen. If you are not happy please speak up they are willing to listen and get your hair looking right. These people are genuine. I have gotten comfortable with them and I will not go anywhere else. Give them a try.
Destiny does an incredible cut. I get compliments all the time from strangers. If you are having issues..go to This great place to get a haircut. . Its clean, comfortable, affordable, and welcoming to all. I was visiting Irvine and she helped me instantly on XMas day.Now I am heading back to Seattle with a great smile on my face.
Gotten a haircut from multiple barbers here and every time it was a great cut. Especially for the price I make it a point to drive the 15 minutes here for the haircut. My favorite barber is Chris, been getting a cut from him almost every week or every other week for the past 6 months and never disappoints.
Quick and clean, in the Covid-19 era I really appreciate the precautions they follow and the great job they always do. Call ahead day-of to get a slot.
Good haircuts. Visited during corona so it was outside so dont know their full potential yet
Very good and simple barbershop. The staff is very friendly and charges relatively little for their services. Cash only though, so be prepared for that.
From the time you come close to this establishment, it’s sad and apparent they take COVID19 and YOUR life well enough to grow more hair to come back. I really think that Tina isn’t motivated by money. She just wants all her clients safe. She has imposed such strict measures and guidelines on a white board right out the front door. I should have taken a picture of the sign sitting outside the shop asking people to add their name to a list and don’t disappear. The plaza where they are located has a indoor and outdoor feel and places to sit until Tina or Anjelica who cuts my hair since day 1! The best! I never leave upset with the art form she created on this ugly head. I still go with a face cover and still do a wonderful job. I took some biology classes and can see she’s like a Mom to her clients (Tina). First thing, “would you like something to drink” and the polite and humorous people. I love just going to see my favorite women. Is two haircuts a month too much. I will say this. It’s cleaned daily and with their social disability policy and wearing a mask makes the difference in me having a mullet or getting my hair cut and worry to death I caught the virus. The one place I can promise is if you read the sign and check in with Tina, she’ll get you in and out as fast as she can. Just be patient as this virus isn’t there fault. They are hurting like most businesses. This place gets a Grade A1 for compliance and having a plan in place. Thank you Anjelica for helping my head look a lot better and Tina. Thanks for keeping your clients and family safe. Do yourself a favor and just shoot them a call to see if they can squeeze you in before like it used to be. We live in a different world now. Just be patient like everyone else and you’ll be happy with the choice of coming here on your first time! I hope I covered everything. Please adhere to Tina’s COVID plan.
Tina was amazing took me in last min when they were about to close and took very grate care of me made me look like a new man thank you Tina
Took my son here for the first time. The staff was great! Very friendly and welcoming. They were FAST and efficient with my sons haircut. I was very impressed on how well the stylist cut my sons hair in such a short amount of time. Just told the stylist want I wanted for my son and she got it right the first time. My son was in and out within 15 minutes. I will definitely be back and will recommend this place to my family and friends.
I’ve been here multiple times, during covid-19 which makes this shop one of the best in irvine. Consistently working to give the best haircuts possible. very clean and always crisp
Very skilled staffs, friendly environment, easy parking and great location. I have been a regular since 2016. Walk-in is welcome, but phone appointment is recommended.
Everyone was very nice and accommodating. I got a beard trim and I really enjoyed the outcome. If youre not quite sure what you want, they will help you with suggestions. Very cozy environment and easy to talk to.
I get my hair cut here regularly, about once every month. My hair is difficult to cut and theres a lot of it. Its very thick and wavy and hard to manage. Nonetheless, they always manage to cut my hair perfectly. I always leave looking sharp. Its been about a year of me going here and no complaints on my part. They even have free water and snacks. call ahead and book an appointment, theyre normally really flexible.
Great haircut for a great price.
I’ve always had a fantastic experience as well as the best hair cut here! Tina and Angie are outstanding but my very last experience was the very best customer service experience one could ask for. Tina and Angie went out of their way to correct a mistake I made on my hair. I can’t be anymore appreciative of their prompt service and care. FYI - I come and get my hair cut from the Bay Area!!!!!
Tina God bless your soul! Cheap fast and modern haircuts! Honest and warm service!
We love this place its a great little barber shop that no one really knows about we live walking distance from here and bring the whole family to come get our cuts. The owner is really sweet and its always their happy to help and accommodate whatever you need to accommodate to get the best haircut for you. Their prices are really reasonable and Ive always enjoyed the results Ive gotten from them
Got a haircut for my son and I with Nancy. We had an appointment but while they will write your name when you call, they still operate as first-come first-served. The staff is very friendly. The haircuts were really fast but not great. This is not the place to go for a stylish or fashion haircut. Its a nice place to go if you just want better than do-it-yourself haircut without an appointment. The place cant be seen from the parking lot. Walk past H&R block and it will be on your right.
Their service here is great. I’m really satisfied with the haircut. The price is reasonable too. Definitely gonna come again.
This is a place for quick fast haircut for $18. All the Barbers here very nice and they did a good job. Compare to the others cant go anywhere else.
Great haircut with a great price. The barbers are very quick and they do a great job cutting your hair. Cant go wrong here. It is behind a building so you have to go inside more and look for it.
Tina and Lee are great! I hear the other barbers are great too but I like to stick to what I know. Highly recommended barbers in Irvine.
Most of the reviews are written by barbers and owners.Inside of the shop was so dirty, hairs are everywhere! Customer service does NOT EXIST.They will call you “hi, honey, we’ll be with you right now and ruin your haircut”I would give this place -10 if I could.They only take cash and not giving you a receipt, they forcing you to use the ATM there for paying extra fees. Avoid this barber shop.You say you are a family business, why you avoid taxes then?!
Its a legit local affordable barber shop for man. I took two stars off for the two following reasons:1. I do not think they take appointments seriously. I made an appointment for 2:30 on Saturday. However, when I walked in, they did not ask me if I have an appointment while there is 1 guy in front of me. When I get my service, it was about 2:45. I wish they honor their appointments in the future as suggested on their website.2. The lady who gave me a haircut did a good job on almost everything, except for the communication part. She shaved my neck before I realized what she was doing. My neck felt a serious burn after she shaved it. I wish she could ask me if it is ok before executing.I had a buzz cut around and scissors on top for a total of $18, and I tipped $3.
Family style barbershop. Irvine is bombarded with corporate BS businesses. Its refreshing to go to Mom and Pop type establishments.
Cant say more positive things about this place. Tina was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and proficient.This place is a little hard to find, as its inside a plaza within a shopping center. You cant see the store from the parking lot -- you have to walk past the Stone Creek Plaza sign and look to your right on the first floor.Tina explained to me all the mistakes my last barber made -- spoiler alert: there was a lot. Thats what I get for going to a really cheap, $8 place.She corrected it the best she could and explained to me the best way to cut my thick, coarse, Asian hair. She was disappointed in my prior cut, which just shows how much she cares about her craft. Really cool to see. She said that they would love to have me back in the future, which was also very nice.She even recommended a nearby Tiawanese place Im going to try. And then to top it off, she gave me a tub of gel to aid my reeling, recovering hair.Best barber Ive ever had, by far. I know you read that in pretty much 40% of barber reviews -- seriously, do the math -- but this place its actually true. Ill be back again!
My boyfriend got a really great service here. Price is really good. I recommend it! 👍👍
I have been going here for as long as I can remember. I moved here from the east coast and had a hard time finding a new barber. I stumbled upon this baber shop by accident after getting lunch in this plaza. Tina is very nice and meticulous on how you want your hair. She will not let you go until you are satisfied. Prices are awesome considering the fact that they are in Irvine and this place gets pretty packed (I can see why). So make sure you make an appointment to avoid waiting. I get me haircut here by Tina every 2 weeks and never had a problem with my hair or time waiting. I recently moved to Mission Viejo and still make the trip to Irvine to see Tina!
I have been going here for a couple years. Tina, Li, Cathy, and the crew are great. Best to call ahead for appointment.
Tina is the most precise barber I have ever had the pleasure to have cut my hair (whats left of it is mostly gray now). She really takes pride in the work she does. When I leave her shop no one ever notices I have just had a haircut but it always looks neat. That is exactly what a quality haircut should be.Prices are great - Tip generously!
I have been going to this barbershop for more than 6 months and whenever I am there although they are busy, two ladies always greet and welcome me. They are polite and humorous that always make me laugh. In Irvine, I believe 18 bucks for a mans haircut is cheapest one and they have better skills than any other barbers in Irvine that I went to. I will keep going to this barbershop.
Been coming to this place for roughly a year now. Staff is great and friendly. Only place I come to now. Quick and speedy cuts for $18.
Came in today for haircut, they’re super busy due to holidays, they told me it take 30 minutes wait, oh well no appointment so what can I say but at least they let you know time waiting. Great haircut and $18 bucks not bad at all. Look good for holidays thanks to the barbers.
I was looking for a new barbershop and I was so glad I came across this hidden gem. The staff here is extremely friendly and skilled at what they do. Being Active Duty in the Air Force and a Realtor, it was imperative that I have a clean cut. Oh boy, were my expectations exceeded by large margins. If I kept writing about this place you would have a novel and I am sure you get the point by now... All in all, this place is a must go. I know I can come here and get a cut with confidence.Deguzman, Alexander
Tina is the best ever! Not only is she extremely professional, but I can trust her with my hair and it always looks more amazing than I could imagine.She knows what shes doing and my hair cut and color always come out perfect...Thanks and will see her soon again.
When you come to this shop, ask for Tina, otherwise go home. She is the only legit barber here that is worth trying out.Ive been going to see her for a haircut for years, so make sure you dont just jump into a random hair stylists chair, as she is a true barber.
Good little locally owned business with good prices. Ive been looking for a local alternative to one of the big hair cutting chains and I think Ive found it. Its a small shop that you cant see from the street but the service was great and the price very reasonable. I will be a regular.
Tina is awesome! Real barber shop feel and also a family friendly environment in Woodbridge!Anyone in Irvine area should definitely try this place.Great barber that takes her time and makes sure you get what you want.Sun
Great cuts at a good price with an amazing staff! I always leave satisfied regardless who cuts my hair, and I recommend this barber shop to anyone.
Ive been going to Tina for several years so clearly, I like how she cuts my hair. I always make an appointment which is easy by text and she is very good at keeping those appointments. She listens and has worked with me as Ive slightly changed my haircut preferences on occasion. I recommend Tina to anyone in search of a good barber.
My Dad was absolutely thrilled to discover his barber, Jim, came out of retirement (pictured right.) With a new location, a relaxed & friendly atmosphere and the best prices in town, who wouldnt be!The shop is thankfully a little closer to home and nestled in a picturesque courtyard - the ideal spot for me to read my book while Dad & Jim chat away.

This is THE SPOT. Especially for those with the ever so troublesome Asian straight and thick hair. Tina is like the Asian hair GURU. Tina was SO much fun to listen too and chat with. Small little setup, perfect for what she is doing. She saw my hair and noticed all the things my previous barber screwed up on and did her best to fix it all and I cant complain about the end product. Shes got a customer for life with me. Wishing you all the best Tina!Best thing Tina said to me, Dont worry, its the holidays. Im going to make sure you look good.
Honestly one of the coolest people I’ve ever met. Quality haircut and great service. Quick fast and did what I’m asking for. For sure I will come here again.
I walk into the door, both haircut ladies are in Justins barber room eating, neither notice me. I stand there looking around and finally one lady asks with a mouthful of food, whats your name. I reply with my name and ask if they are taking walk ins. They go back to eating their food and do NOT respond or reply to my question. I then say ok, thanks and walk out. Worst haircut experience and I couldnt even get my haircut.
I was in Orange County, I wanted to give it a try, they ruined my hair!!!THE WORST HAIRCUT I’ve ever got in my life.Very shady place!
Best barber shop I have ever tried. Everyone is really friendly and the cuts are prime.
This place is great. Haircuts are really clean, cheap, and fast. Tina and Angelica are awesome.
Im blown away by Tina, the owner of the shop, she accepted to give me a haircut even though it was 20 minutes before her closing hours. Shes very friendly and took her time to give the best haircut experience Ive ever had. I would definitely come here again!
Just went to the new StoneCreek Plaza location that a few of the gang from the old University Park Barber Stylists just opened/relocated to. Nice to see some of them back together in this nice cozy spot along Barranca. Saw Tina as she is my go to barber. She knows what to do to give me a hair cut that I want.
Eh. Did not really enjoy my haircut here; felt like I was being rushed out the whole time even though I had called in previously to ask when the next available appointment was. In the end I also didnt like my haircut, which I thought was too short. I had asked for it shorter on top. At first the person didnt shorten it up top at all; then when I asked again for it to be shorter up top she ended up buzzing it with clippers that were shorter than Id liked. It really felt like a rush job, especially because I had asked if she could go shorter with scissors and initially said I didnt want clippers up top. They have water and it seemed like she squeezed me in though. Everything but the haircut was nice.
$18 cuts with the best fades in OC. Can’t go wrong here with any of the barbers.
I love it here they know my name, type of haircut I want. Fast and efficient plan on going back again. Also offers Veterans a discount.
Justin gave me a great fade at an excellent price. Hes hilarious and talented. The owner Tina was there as well. She introduced herself and was very welcoming. For sure going here from now on.
Awful barber shop. Not clean, they can’t perform haircut properly. As mentioned in other reviews, they just bulldozing with har clippers. I wish I would give 0 star to this place
Price is so reasonable and i like their service!!! You should try this guys!! Recommended!!
Nice little place, the haircut was nice, Ill know for sure after my 2nd visit. Its only cash payment so be prepared and if not quickly ask her for mobile pay which nobody will let you know about, instead they will point you to the nearest atm or bank and youll keep running here n there. The mobile pay will charge you $1 extra but will save you a lot of mental stress!Employees try their best to be nice and 1 time that I went the haircut was pretty decent!
Tina, New customer today, and I will be a returning customer. Best haircut experience Ive had in my life thus far. The shop is inside the courtyards to the right, little bit hard to find if you dont know the area. Make sure to call ahead and make an appointment.
Just moved to Irvine, looking for a barbershop to cut my husband hair. Found this barbershop and we went there, first thing very impressed nice and clean, owner offer soft drink, after that she asked how would John like the haircut, they listened and did how he wants, hair came out so perfect and the price only $18, cant beat that deal. Thanks barbers, for sure we will come back.👍👍👍
I first met Tina when she joined Jim in the barber shop in the University Park Center. When Jim decided to retire, I followed Tina to a little shop on Main Street near to the OC airport. When I learned that Tiina was opening her own shop in Stonecreek Plaza, I followed her there too. Tina has been cutting my hair for several years - it continues to grow and I continue to see Tina. As somebody else mentioned, the stylists in her Tinas shop do a fantastic job and they do it swiftly. Tina has been very successful - she has added stylists and chairs - and it is no surprise to me! Thanks Tina!!
Tina is sooo sweet. Very welcoming. I was treated like a king. All this, plus she gave me an awesome cut.Since Ive never had a shave in a barber shop, I wanted my beard shaved off, I went for the full treatment. Justin was da man!! He did a great job and even better than the shave was his pampering.A very nice experience on a rotten day. Just what I needed.
I was apprehensive at first but I was in the neighborhood. This spot caught my eye and I knew I needed a cut anyway so I thought Yolo! and handled. Got a classy taper fade from Tina! First time getting a cut by a woman too but this spot did it so crisp!! Im coming back for sure. Thanks Tina!
Hard to find tough to beat. Park in front of H&R block and walk into a cove like area, shop is on the right. Glad to see the gang back together at a new location. Used to be the old University Park barber shop. Tina or Jim will give you a professional haircut at great prices.
Local and affordable barber shop for men.I gave less than 5 stars for the following reasons:1. Took 2 mins to cut my hair, no attention to detail, and all i said was “short” and she just started bulldozing. “Speedy” is not always good.2. Already speaking to the next customer and I just sat down. They seemed to be way more concerned about pushing people through the door than actually providing a good service.3. Assumed a good tip for 2 minute hair cut. I gave a 20, and she asked me back if I want the change back. I never felt bad saying “keep the change” to my hairdresser.4. Holy hair everywhere. The lack of effort to cleanup lead the hairdresser to just use cold air blow dryer to clean up the cut WHILE the machine cutter is going through my hair. I ended up with itchy load of hair in my shirt on my skin. Not pleasent.5. I dont like the haircut.
Great place! Tina does a great job and Im always happy to come back. Found this place a few months ago and its become my regular stop for hair cuts in the area
Very fast service, nice people, hair cut’s great and the price is very reasonable!
$18 haircut, quick & clean. Great spot
Longtime customer with Billy, Tina, and Jim Anderson from University Park Barbershop! Hands down the best place! Great people, chill shop, and absolutely perfect cuts!
Always great and friendly service, only shop I go to in OC.
I love it! They give me exactly what I want without question like other shops have. That is annoying.
Love the haircut, very fast and very affordable. Able to take me as a walk-in. Nancy was great!
TINA did very professional job on my hair.I always recommend to you go in there and get whatever u want. She does know everything😊Happy place!!!
Always fits me in whenever I need a haircut. Good prices too.
Tina is great. It is easy to schedule an appointment and the haircuts are top notch. She even throws in a eyebrow trim!
Ask for Tina! She has been my barber for a year and a half and will take very good care of you! Tina has been very helpful and super friendly! Thank you!
WOW WOW WOW!!!!! THIS IS HOW I FEEL ABOUT THIS PLACE !!! MY barberette Tina was AMAZINGLY smart, professional, SWEEEEEET AS HELL and Very Funny !! I cant belive barbershop like this still exist! I was pampered here, treated like I was in a beauty spa not just a barbershop ! Nancy the other barberette is also really good in giving beardcuts ! I recommend this place to everyone who does have a regular barbershop they go to yet !I give them 10/10 for the customer service and experience .( they have a free snack and water fridge )10/10 for the prices !!! 30$ for :the fade haircut&style AND beard trimming, lineup and cleaning !!This place really takes care of you !!

Its a great spot thats not to expensive. They used to be up by Michelson and Culver, same great people friendly and really know their hair.
Very good service very kind good haircut and good price only $18 and the most important it didnt take an hour to cut the hair i think she did it less then 30 minutes and i had a lot of hair …More
Great barber! Super friendly, quick, and an amazing haircut for a great price.
You are well taken care of when you arrive by Tina. Great hair cut and Tina is the best. Highly recommend.
Great place! Tina is the best! Always does my hair just right!
