Ive been coming to this place when Frank owned it years ago. Unfortunately, the shop closed upon his death, until a new owner purchased the space. Always a friendly place with something like 7 chairs mostly staffed. My issue is that I only need a trim, no buzz trimming up the side of the head, no etching of my hair with a razor. Just a simple trim. Being 66, I expect a senior discount, but forget that discount on Fri-Sun. The tipping point for me now is that a haircut now costs $27.00. I dont require a scissor cut or styling, just a regular haircut. Im now on the lookout for a new Barbershop with reasonable prices. I also get that they were shut down for a long time because of the pandemic, but there is no need to price gouge. BTW, I tip $5 or $6 per cut. I just need a simple hair cut!!! Not styling.
Love this place! Both my husband and son go here for haircuts. They always come out looking sharp 😎
The place was ok, I wish I had a different barber, the one I got a haircut from wasnt listening to any of the things I said, I ended up getting the haircut he wanted to give me not what I told him I wanted, if you looking for the dad look this is the right place for you. I wish I had a haircut from the tattooed barber dude, he seem talented, friendly and was actually listening to what his client was saying.
I love this place and highly recommend you stop by if you’re looking for a fresh cut and line up. Been taking my son for the last 5 years too to get comb overs. Everyone knows how to cut hair there! Kelly, Snow, Linda, Don thank you all!
Great barbers quality haircuts always leave happy
The haircut from Ti was good. She took her time and made sure that my it was how I wanted it. I would return for a haircut from her.
Linda has been my go to barber for several years and she is excellent. The others I’ve seen are also very good. Nice friendly place.
One of the best places in san jose! It doesnt matter who you get here, they all know EXACTLY what they are doing.
Great service. Tina cut my hair exactly how I wanted it cut.
Jenny did a great cut!
Great service.
Best haircuts in San Jose love this place been coming here for years
Going here since 2015. Prices are a bit on the higher side but the barbers are amazing. Especially Kelly and Khan. They are helpful in giving you suggestions about what type of haircut suits the best. Nowadays they accept only Cash which is sort of a bummer but for the quality of the haircut a trip to the nearby safeway is worth.
Bit over-priced for male haircut but great service.
I came in asking for a simple low fade. I came out looking like I had a butchered high and tight, with a line up that looks like I have a receding hairline now for $25. I read a lot of good reviews about this place before deciding to go. Sadly I didn’t get the same experience. Maybe I just had the worse barber out of the shop, but I would still highly recommended elsewhere.
Go there everytime. Consistent fades. Good customer service. However, i did receive a bad haircut once. I drove back, and the lady there fixed me up. Now I look fresh as heck. I havent tried all the barbers in the shop, but I would say most of them are talented.Go to khan or Tina. They know their stuff
Ive been going to Mission Barbers for 7 yrs now. Im not a young man, and Ive never experienced the level of dedication and professionalism ANYWHERE, EVER. Th last 4 yrs Ive been living in Santa Cruz and I cant even imagine having it done locally. I dont work over that way... But I drive over the hill once a month to get it done right.Snow has been my barber the entire time.Best barber ever. And a sweet human being...
Nice, fast and precise. I love all of them!
This is the place to go if youre looking for looking for a legendary fade. Ive had my hair cut by all the barbers here and have never been disappointed. The prices are super reasonable and costs the same as about great clips or similar chain hair cut place. These barbers have some serious skill and you will absolutely get a ton of compliments on your cut. Cash only fyi.
Good place
I have never got a bad haircut from anyone here. Really good line work. Walk ins only, but definitely worth the wait each time. I recommend coming in on a weekday. Comes out to about $25 for a razor fade and line up.
Kelly always cuts my sons hair and it always looks great. Everyone at the barber shop is very friendly. Well worth the wait. Definitely not a 2 minute hair cut. They always take there time and do great work! Thank you Kelly. From Louis Mom ;)
Great Spot with good people! Black cuts me on the regular. Offers a very detailed approach to his craft. At least one visit is a must. You will be glad you did!
I have been going to Steve for 20+ years. He is the best barber around. Right when you walk in you are welcomed with a smile and how is your day going. Anyone who comes in is treated like family. Also Steves staff is the best around. See anyone of his barbers and you will not leave disappointed.
Great place for a clean cut, professional staff and each one gives a great cut. The average haircut here takes about 30-40 minutes not including wait times (which can sometimes be an hour) so plan accordingly. They do not take appointments but you can call in and have your name put on the list, which is a plus. All around great place if youre looking for somewhere new.
They are super friendly and know how to cut hair. I have been going here for about two years now. Kelly is my favorite and I always go to her, but they are all talented. Definitely would recommend!
The best barber shop in SJ. Every single staff member there is better than the next. So youre guaranteed the perfect taper or fade. Steve the owner is very welcoming and remembers everyone 😁
Uneven, non-symmetrical. Not happy with my hair cut at all.. at first. After washing up, combing next day, its not as bad as I thought. Ive also received a couple compliments on it. Might of been a bit harsh with original review. Decent cut.
We go here nearly all the time. And then sometimes we go else where. And then we go back here!Ive only once had a cut Ive not been happy with, so thats a pretty good hit rate. Try to pick the quiet hours in the week for less waiting and a lower price.
Very nice staff. They took there time with my son who is Autistic and did a great job.
Went in for the first time and got a really good fade cut. My hair is a little tough to cut and I was impressed with the quality and attention to detail. Kelly did a great job and I will DEFINITELY be going back!
Kelly is a great barber.
These folks are the best! But thats why its always packed. ;-) Jennifer and Ben are my go tos. They do a great cut, and fun to talk with.
They do a great job on my beard ironically but they cut my hair like Im Asian which I happen not to be
Always give me a good trim. Only place I know that uses a blade and gets my hair (whats left of it) down to the bone. Very nice staff.
I took my sons here to get a haircut. They did an awesome job. The barbers are so friendly. Will be coming back for sure.
You know it is a great place when you see 15 people waiting for the door to open. I have gotten great service and appearance because of this shop for the last four years. Thank you Steve & Co.
Kahn always gives me a great haircut!
Founders have moved on and started another shop. But this place is still probably the best barber shop value in town. Eight chairs, but its popular sfd o expect a wait.
Quick service. Open Mondays too. Friendly staff.
Don did a great job! Walked right in and sat down. The place is friendly, clean and they gave me a solid haircut. These guys know their trade!
Steve is the man! Ive been getting faded from him and his wife Lena for about 5 years now. There used to be another young barber that was really damn good too but he must be at another shop now. Steve knows how to cut hair. Hes one of those old school barbers thats adapted to changing times and is up to date with all the new trends. Im only giving 4 because Steve and his wife Lena are the only ones Id trust with my hair now. The other barbers are a hit and miss with me, although Ive seen them do pretty good on other people.
Only been one time. I was in and out on my lunch break, without feeling rushed out, Linda took her time and focused on the details, (I have pretty crazy/curly hair) and she did a great job
Cool little shop. Great barbers.
Ive been here multiple times, at different times of the day (as well as different days of the week) and there was always a long wait. There is a pad of paper to put your name down, but not a good sense of how long the wait will be. The staff has given very low-ball estimates every time I asked. I was once told about 15 minutes over the phone but when I got there just minutes later, it was maybe 45 minutes? I understand they are a business that relies on partly on walk-in clientele, so there is a need to keep prospective customers anchored at the shop, but this is frustrating if you cant get an accurate idea of how long you have to wait or when to come back.
Great place to get a haircut. Very busy during the weekend so do allow plenty of time for this visit in your schedule.
What can I say that other people havent yet? The greatest, most professional barber shop in SJ, they really know how to treat their clientele, my only drawback is their appointment system (walk-ins only...), but thats just like a real, classical barber shop.
Great Place to get a awesome haircut. This place gets really busy so be patient. Usually they have a list going for waiting.
Great cut, only had to wait 10 min to get into a chair
Great haircuts at a reasonable price. Their attention to detail and the way they make everyone feel like a regular is fantastic.
Everyone that leaves here looks extra fresh, but I had Jovan and he brings his talent with him from Miami! Mohawk fade was on point, especially in the back.
Great place for a hair cut. Lines arent long most of the time and they are really nice.
Best barber shop in town in my opinion
Snow and Ben are the best havent tried the rest yet
This place is great the barbers are very nice. But you must be ready for a one hour wait when you go
Great place and good haircuts. Give importance to detail and makes sure the customer is happy!
If you have kids take them to see Ben! My son was afraid of getting his hair cut until I took him here. Ben took the time and approach to make it a good experience. my son now asks when we are going to see Ben now.
Great haircuts! Long wait times because its so popular, but at least they have Wi-Fi.
Nice place to get a haircut. My fave
Great place. Go early as it is very popular.
Fast and get a good haircut from anyone of the members.
Very busy but reasonably priced and great quality haircuts and very friendly people.
Always dependable. Been going here since 2014
Great haircut! Worth the wait!
Im satisfied every time I come here! Im just confused on who to pick out of the staff when steves not here. Any suggestions??
The wait can be a bit long, especially on weekends, but that is because its so popular. The cuts are consistently great and at a great price.
Friendly, mid-priced, wifi, TVs. Good haircuts!
Solid popular barber shop. Gets busy!
Long wait on the weekends. If you plan on going during the weekend you should definitely make an appointment.
The wait is worth it for my barber. She is very detail and approaches each type of hair differently.
Nice place to get a good haircut!
Great babers in here!
Great cuts. Friendly barbers.
Came here once, never again. Totally messed up my line up.
Best haircut in 20 years in San Jose.
Reducing to 3 stars as my regular barber Lena does not work here any more. I am not sure how the other barbers are. I will be going back to Lena for my cuts.
If you go at the wrong time you can be there for 2 hours
Horrible customer service and a horrible haircut.... This place sucks
Jovan never disappoints !
I live 30 miles away and I always still come here
Great service
Good cuts and inexpensive.
Great barbers
Best haircut in town
Jenner is the best
One of the best cuts
Busy but good
They ruined my hair
Too damn expensive
They are awesome
I like it
Allahu Akbar
