Nhi was as professional as you can get! She did not rush me out and I paid a fair price! Thanks!!

A Plus Barber has been my favorite barbershop since 2017. You can't find barbers that use straight razors and give cleaner haircuts for $25 + tip anywhere else in San Jose. I recommend you get a haircut from the owner, Thanh, and the younger Vietnamese woman that works two seats to Thanh's right (I need to ask her name next time). Anyone other than those two are newer barbers, and I personally did not like my last haircut from the older Vietnamese woman. I can't speak for anyone else's haircutting skills other those three. Be warned that unless you call ahead, you'll probably have to wait at least 5-10 minutes before they are ready for you. The haircuts themselves usually take 20-30 minutes. read more

Caroline gave me exactly the haircut I wanted, with a senior discount. Well worth the $7 tip I gave her

I've been going to this barber for 13 years as of 2025. There were some times I stopped going and tried other places as well but each time I've come back to them, the quality and experience was as good as, or better than the other places. Thanh and Caroline know me and what I like and give me the most consistent high-quality hair cut (I'm an 50+ man). I've had cuts by the other barbers there and it was a little more hit or miss. I like that they will include shaving areas around my ears and neck to make the cut look clean. Their shop is clean and they have always been very professional when I've been there. I am very happy with their service and I would recommend them for any man who would like a good cut at a good price. read more

I've been coming here since I moved to the neighborhood over 5yrs ago and many of the barbers are great. My original barber at this shop moved to another state and my other, recently went on maternity leave. So you can say, I've had consistent haircuts by at least 3 barbers and I'll keep coming back. I tried all sorts of other shops in SJ in the past and they were either expensive, inconsistent or didn't know how to fade AND cut long straight hair with scissors. I have thick black Asian hair and A+ Barber know how to fade the sides and also cut the hair on top. A+ Barber is accustomed to cutting all sorts of hair textures and styles. More of a barber shop but I've seen them cut and dye women's hair as well. Everyone is experienced with cutting children's hair too. Language is not an issue but you might raise your eyebrow at the politeness. They're actually really nice! read more

A Plus Barber - Nov 2023 - Barbers Near Me - San Jose, California

Service is good. Place is clean. Reasonable price. The barbers are either burned out, pick who they spend time on, or can't really cut hair. Just look at this pic. The fade was so high it looks like a Mohawk, which makes it grow out uneven. read more

A Plus Barber - Fade way too high. - Barbers Near Me - San Jose, California

The people working there aren't responsible and the job they are doing is very unprofessional. I made an appointment for my son yesterday for today 12 o'clock and with a guy. So today my son went there and instead of getting his haircut by this guy I made an appointment with, another woman did his haircut and very very badly. My sons neck is all red, cut and bloody. I called to this salon and instead of apologizing they were rude. That's my sons first and last visit there. I wouldn't recommend you to go and get your haircut done there by these peo read more

A Plus Barber - Haircut - Barbers Near Me - San Jose, California

I've been going to A Plus Barber for 7 years now. I used to go get a men's haircut when I lived downtown San Jose at Tangerine Salon. Thanh and the other stylists at A Plus are top notch. The experience is always consistent and they always tailor the cut to what you want. I find the experience to be much better than previous Salons and the price is reasonable. I definitely recommend you give them a try! read more

I've been going here for years. It was the first barber shop I've been to where you get in the queue and wait. I've tried many other places even the fancy places with nice chairs and beers on tap and they still can't seem to get it on this level. Recently I moved out of the neighborhood and instead of finding a new place I simply make the trek down to the south side and get my cuts here. I feel like each of the barbers are skilled and don't wait for a specific one. read more

Relatively cheap for regular haircut but service & quality of the cut are below average.

Love this barber shop. Thanh is the best ...been going to him for 10 years + Always accommodating for an appointment to his regular customers.... He will go out of his way to take care of his patrons. Sometimes staying late or working longer during holidays to make sure he makes folks happy - even when he has a family and baby of his own. This place is always clean and services are fast. I would never go anywhere else! read more

Great service. They take care of you and make your wife or girlfriend really happy to see you!

My husband and boys have been getting their haircut here for years now. Thanh does an amazing job. He takes his time and doesn't leave any strays.

I wanted to let everyone know that I recently started to bring my son who has special needs non verbal to this barber shop, all of the staff in these barber shop are very helpful, understanding, accommodating, very friendly, accepting of my son's needs, my son is not the easiest but they do everything to make him comfortable as possible as he gets his hair cut. My son cries a lot because of sensory problems, May it be the noise of the clippers buzzing around his head or the blow dryer around him, they take their time to cut his hair and make him feel comforted while he cries, eventually they got him to enjoy it.

Been going for years and have always been pleased with my hair cut. Friendly and always open regular hours.

Caroline listened and gave my son a great haircut. He hasn't liked his haircuts for a long time! Very nice people for sure.

They ask for your preference and pretty much ignore you. This maybe because their English is a suspect. I wasn't happy after I told her more than 5 times for a specific simple instruction. Just one simple instruction. After I realized she messed me up, another lady came out trying to smooth it out. She said it is free, but I paid. Because She tried at least. There is not much you can do when it is all gone. My question is if you don't understand, wouldn't you ask again or ask another person to interpret it. When you chop off the hair, it is over. I just need to wait a month for it to grow back. This sucks. read more

Asian dude that works here not professional. Shouts. Does not comprehend what a customer wants.
