I went to Bishops for a cut with Lana and overall had an okay experience. She was a very nice lady and friendly during the appointment, but my hair was left noticeably uneven on both sides and in the back, which was disappointing for the price. I don't think she completely understood what I was going for, and I had to clean it up elsewhere afterward. I appreciate her kindness, but based on the result I wouldn't book with her again and can only give this visit 2 stars. read more

Absolutely loved my experience here with Brande. I came here looking for a subtle balayage and she nailed it with a minky ombré- perfect for the start of the holidays my hair feels so healthy and soft too. She really took her time with the coloring and blended the colors very well. Overall I had such a good experience and will be visiting again. I also booked a K18 treatment for my mom with Jana along with a blowout which she also loved read more

I decided to try Bishops at Cupertino - Main Street, since I frequent this area and needed a fresh cut last month. Stylist Brande worked on my hair and she not only did a great job, but she was also very friendly, easy to talk to, and attentive to what I was wanting in a cut. Prices are reasonable especially when comparing to some of the other hair salons in South Bay. I also like the fact that the shop hours are open daily and includes evenings. Parking is available and I have never had an issue in Main Street, but there are peak times when it could be hard to find a stall in the central area. read more

This was my first experience at a US hair salon since moving from Australia in December. I have dark brown hair with a halo of very light blonde that needed to be retouched. I received a call the day before my appointment asking to make my appointment 45 minutes later as the stylist I had booked with was allergic to bleach and couldn't do my service. This was fine and I agreed, however when I arrived she tried to palm me off to the same stylist that I was told was allergic which was very confusing to me. Once my service started we went over want I wanted and she was confident that she could execute it. While I know my roots were on the longer side and can make it a little more difficult to achieve an even result I've never had a problem when getting my hair done back home. Taking the time to bleach the longer sections before going back to apply at the roots is really all that needed to be done. The bleach was just slapped on haphazardly and doesn't even reach the roots in some sections, particularly at the top where my part is. I'm also left with dark yellow banding in patches. When it came time to rinse out the bleach she was very rough. At one point she got me to lift my head by pulling me up by my hair instead of lifting my head or simply asking me to lift my head. She used her nails to scrap at my scalp. While that wasn't necessarily painful, it was very uncomfortable. Water was spraying all over my face (I would expect it to happen a little bit but my face was literally wet). This is where I assumed a toner would be used. I'm not sure if salons in the US expect you to ask for a specific toner as in my experience toning always follows bleach and I had mentioned that my previous hairdresser would tone my blonde to an ashy tone or almost white which I was again wanting. As she was blowdrying she made comments about how good the work was and how nice it looked. She gave me a side part even tho I came in with middle part and my hair naturally has a middle part. At first glance things looked ok. I just wanted to be done with the service. I paid and went to leave and was asked if i wanted to send gratuity via Zelle or Venmo. Being asked to tip made me feel backed into a corner and while I really didn't feel a tip was deserved given my experience I tipped anyway. I don't think anyone should be demanding a tip, simply have your venmo or zelle info on a small sign at the counter so those who would like to tip you can instead of putting people on the spot. Granted this could have been avoided if not for my own anxieties as I could have just said no but felt too awkward. I go get into the car and flip my side part over so I have a middle part again. This is when I notice a mini raccoons tail striping down my middle part. I can't help but wonder if this is why my hair was parted differently to how it naturally wants to fall. I went back into the salon and showed the other stylist who then called my stylist back to fix it. She said she "didn't see that" when doing my hair and while she was very apologetic... that's literally your job? She put more bleach on the entire section of hair making the parts that were ok even lighter than they already were causing more unevenness and dryness. She then used a spray bottle to 'rinse' this bleach but when I got home there was still powerdy residue in my hair. My part is still uneven as you can see in the photos. While Brande seemed nice the service overall was sloppy and not worth the money or tip in the slightest. I got home and decided to throw on a colour in hopes of hiding all the things wrong with my hair and noticed patches of bleach in my dark hair, on the back and sides. The lack of care taken during my service is incredibly upsetting. I would expect better work from an apprentice let alone the manager. It does say in their website that if you don't like anything to let them know so they can bring you back in to fix it but after already asking for it to be fixed and seeing more and more wrong I won't be returning. I'd rather pay $1500 to fly back to Australia and see my old stylist if this is the acceptable quality of work in San Jose. read more

I scheduled an appointment a good couple of weeks in advance. The night before, my stylist suddenly cancelled on me, offering no help in getting another appointment to replace the original. This was extremely frustrating, and in the end, I just gave up and scheduled at a different salon. Overall, very unprofessional and problematic. read more

Bishops Cuts/Color - Before and after - Hair Salons Near Me - Cupertino, California

I accidently scheduled at the wrong Bishops but the woman working there was so nice about taking me in anyways and did an amazing job with my hair! I wanted it styled for an event I had later that night and the volume she gave made me look amazing. Edit: After 6 hours the hair looked absolutely perfect for my event, the volume was still there but calmed down to look more natural, and I got compliments on it all night! Even the few days afterwards my hair didn't really need to be styled, just brushed and I'm ready to go! Highly recommend. read more

It was my first ever visit with Brande. Had the best experience ever, she was amazing, and sweet! She knew exactly what I wanted. I showed her a picture of what I wanted and she was able to recreate the exact hair color that no other hair dresser hasn't been able to do. I didn't have to question her at any point, I'm very picky with my hair! Brande took her time and I felt that she really takes pride in her work. My hair came out amazing. I am now a customer for life. I'm so happy I found her, thank you Brande!!! read more

If you're looking to go blonde, Brande is your girl! She's extremely kind and accommodating, always looking out for her clients best interests. Le has also given me many haircuts with layers that are always stunning. The shop owners, Marc and Rhian, keep their building really clean and decorated cute for the holidays throughout the year. They greet you with a friendly welcome when you step in, always ready to help and serve you! read more

I cannot recommend Lana enough! I went to them for the first time to color and my hair has never looked or felt healthier! She is incredibly talented, precise, and took the time to understand exactly what I wanted during the consultation. I had been struggling with my previous colorist taking more risks using brighter colors and multiple colored hilights and Jana worked absolute magic to create the color of my dreams. They are professional, kind, and genuinely care about their clients' happiness. I walked out feeling like a whole new woman! If you're looking for a top-tier colorist, this is the place.I drove all the way from marin to come here and it was worth every effort and penny! Addionally I love the fact all their services including cost are posted directly on the website as well as in the salon itself! I will be coming here from now on for all my hair color needs! Look no further for premium service and care! read more

I really hate giving bad reviews but I am very unhappy with my haircut. I specifically asked for my hair to be cut shoulder length. We confirmed three times that the end result would be shoulder length. Instead I got a super short bob. Even as they were cutting the hair I asked them if this is some kind of layering technique and if the front pieces would be shoulder length and they said yes but that never happened. I have been to this location and other bishops in the past and I've never had such a bad experience!! Please do better!! :( :( Edit: thanks Marc for your response, but it seems like a waste that you would tell me about the 7 day policy more than 7 days after my service, when I can't even avail it :/ besides, my hair is already shorter than I wanted, not sure how you would go about fixing it without cutting it further. Can we work out some other way? read more

I was able to book a same day appointment with Paul this afternoon. Starting a new job this week and needed a fresh cut to feel my 110%. As soon as I entered the shop, I was offered a complimentary beverage (water, coffee, hot cocoa, and beer). There was no wait for my appointment as soon as I got there, so I was able to enjoy a beer while I got my haircut. The haircut experience was very lovely. Paul is very friendly and offered suggestions of places to visit in the area (I'm new to the Bay Area). The haircut itself was about 30-45 minutes long and I could tell Paul took his time. All the staff were very friendly and made me feel welcome. The prices are very reasonable, and they even offer a military discount. I will certainly be returning! read more

Brande did my highlights and was super sweet and accommodating!! She did her best to work over my previously (unfortunately) box dyed hair and was able to lift it to a pretty light color. She paid a lot of attention to detail and I left with my hair feeling healthy read more

10/10 HIGHLY RECOMMEND! I absolutely LOVE my haircut ! I had the pleasure of being paired with PAUL he's so wonderful and extremely talented. Backstory : I walked in w/ an appointment @4:30pm on a Friday . I had semi damp hair from this am shower and long hair past my shoulders down to the first ribs. (For reference my hair is somewhat corse and pretty thick.) I tend to shy away from new haircut places or new stylists because my hair is straight but with a little bit of a wave . Having said that you can tell right away if my haircut is going to be choppy or not . I could tell right away I was in Great hands ! Paul used a different type of shear to texturize my hair + added volume with long layers in the crown area . My needs : I told him my long hair was getting way to heavy for me plus now that I'm a mom . I wanted to go ahead and graduate to a 'proper' mom cut aka not have my 1yo yank by my hair any time it wasn't tied up. Haircut delivery : I asked for a few things out of my haircut : 1. Medium length 2. Long layers 3. Face framing layers . He exceeded my expectations and we even had some time to talk about a hair consultation for a future visit. If you're on the borderline with your haircut establishment--- I would highly recommend Paul here from bishops ! He has over 18 + years of cosmetology experience. read more

(TLDR: My first cut was what i wanted and my second cut became what i wanted and needed, i loved it, also i felt v comfortable as a queer person and don't feel like my haircut was over feminized when i wanted a masc cut) So this is the second time i came here and i really appreciated Maria and the cut she did for me. i want to say that my first here with another stylist went well. i went from having hair down to my back to above my ears. for my initial haircut i wanted a shaggier cut with layers to give basically a wolf cut. i was happy with it and it was what i wanted i just had difficulty with the length on the back hitting my collar and i was starting to get overstimulated everyday from it so i knew i needed to go back to get another cut. I didn't have a clear picture in mind for what i wanted but i gave the reference below of a low taper skin fade with more length on top. Maria really worked with me and still helped me find what would work best for me and suit me. there was a smoll snafu with checking out bc someone else was checked out under my account but it wasn't terrible. i just felt bad bc i accidentally dropped money on the table( i was asking for change for tip) since i hadn't eaten yet and i definitely did not mean to be rude! i was just shaking bc i didn't eat lol. overall i really like my cut and my gf does too so that's always a win. and i came back for the hair cream pictured below bc it's very versatile and i like it. read more

So i really wanted to love my hair but nothing i hate more than a hair stylist who's scissors happy. Oh wait i can think of something i hate more being told my hair needs to be cut because "look at it!" And i look and there no dead hair and very little breakage. I came in for a cherry ombré because I didn't want my roots colored. Helen was very nice but spoke very little English and the other person there for the more part was the same. Language barriers don't bother me because google translate exists but she wasn't asking enough questions to really know what i want. She dyed my VIRGIN HAIR roots to tips, bleached my ends for for reason because the bleach was in for 10 minutes and didn't change much. She dyed my hair first and then cut which sounds like a waste if product. When it came to the cut i wanted a TRIM AND MY LAYERS SHORTENED. When deciding how much to take off she immediately offered 7 inches off...FOR A TRIM i said no. She goes down an inch I say no less hair after this back and forth leaves us with 1 inch off she slides her scissors up 3 inches and chops then ask "is that good?" To which i reply we cant go back now. When it came to my layers i told her short layers and she said no. Why the fuck am I arguing to have the hair i want AFTER YOU ALREADY CUT TOO MUCH???? Anyway. The dye was not exactly what i wanted and the cut was absolutely too short. Will not be going again unfortunately. It takes too fucking long to grow my hair to my ass only for it to be cut cause someone with a bob thinks they get ti decide what looks good in me. I went home to cry about feeling ugly. Also i type this on my birthday, i feel unrecognizable and ugly on my birthday read more

Anyone else out there longing for one of those old-school barber experiences for men? I'm so glad that I discovered Bishop's, near Dough Zone in Cupertino. Just my good luck that Marc, the owner, happened to be there and he made sure his crew took great care of me. It's a full service salon, but if you're like me, you've noticed that it's difficult to find a licensed barber in one. Thank goodness that Theresa, my stylist and certified barber, was able to squeeze me into an open slot on a Sat morning. She gave me the works, starting with a style consultation, on what I should do with that weasel I let take over my face. Then, after plotting a course of action, she gave me a beard trim, hot towel shave, then finished it all off with a hot towel head shave. Before leaving, I picked up some wonderful smelling beard moisturizer, which I'm now using everyday. Great start on my weekend! If you haven't already, I highly recommend you treat yourself to the works @ Bishop's! read more

Theresa is fantastic! I get so many compliments. She asks good questions to determine one's needs and makes suggestions when prompted. 10/10

I booked an appointment last-minute for the end of the day. Upon walking in, I was greeted kindly and offered a complimentary beverage. They took their time with my cut despite it being the end of the day. Friendly and competent--the two primary requirements of a good barber/stylist business. Will be back. read more

Bishops is *the* go-to hair salon in the Bay for anyone looking for a fantastic cut at a great price. It's a chain, but each of the locations have their own distinct vibe-- and their own staff of talented stylists. They're diverse, LGBTQ friendly, and quick to offer you a beer or a water when you walk in. I've gone to a few Bishops but this one is absolutely my favorite because of Shannon. She's SO GOOD at what she does (she literally has decades of experience) and she also totally matches your energy. I'm a bit of an extrovert so she's always happy to chat with me the whole time, but if you're looking to just relax and enjoy your cut, she can work with that too. My recent bob cut from her is one of my favorites in years-- if you're in the area and looking for someone new, GO and ask for Shannon!! read more

Let me just preface this review by saying that, having great hair is both a blessing and a curse. With that being said, the curse part of it is finding someone to maintain my magnificent head of hair. Over the years I have met more than my fair share of mediocre barbers and stylists, and have had some pretty subpar cuts. So, when I find someone that I like, I am loyal. The first barber that I ever had, I grew up going to him with my dad and went to him throughout my High School years and probably about a year after I finished. Then I got my first real job and got introduced to a stylist that I would go to for the next decade, following her to 3 different shops, until I moved away and joined the Army. So, during that time, I was at the mercy of on and off Post barbers. Once I got out of the Army, I moved to Las Vegas and found a shop that I liked and continued to go to for about 3 years, as a loyal customer, even though the cuts weren't always consistent. Until one day that I had my regularly bi-weekly appointment, I came in and I was turned away by my barber saying that he was behind and too busy. So, that was the end of that. Fortunately, I found someone good right away and found myself going there for another 4 years, until I moved back to the South Bay. Fast forward 4 mediocre barbers/stylists later. I happened to frequent a place that I was getting pretty inconsistent haircuts/fades from the person I had been coming to for a year. One day I really needed a haircut and my usual person wasn't available. So, I asked if a particular stylist, by the name of Jazz, was available. She was. I had been watching her give really good, consistent, haircuts and I had that fade FOMO. Everyone that was getting faded by Jazz came out really good! No lines. Everything was even. Here I was, having to go home after my haircuts and touch myself up. After Jazz cut my hair, that was it! I had found MY stylist. I followed her to Bishop's when she moved. A little bit further out of the way. But, definitely worth it! She is only the second person to cut my hair that has been consistent and done an amazing job every time. I have not once had to touch up my hair after a haircut with her. Finding a great stylist is not easy. That's the gift part. I will definitely continue to get my haircut by Jazz as long as I possibly can. Bishop's is probably one of, if not the best shop that I have ever been in. It's always clean. The decor is on point and very stylish. There are definitely a couple of pieces on the wall that I have my eye on. (I won't mention which, as not to incriminate myself if they should come up missing) They also have complimentary beer and sparkling water while you're waiting, which is a nice touch. I'm a Root Beer man myself, so I never partake. They are in a great location too. Plenty of things to do after you come out looking fly AF! So...what are you waiting for?! Book yourself an appointment...right now!!! read more

This was my first time coming here; first time coming into a hair salon in like 10 years. As a mixed girl (1/2 black, 1/4 white, 1/4 Japanese) going to a salon wasn't really my favorite pastime. Back in the day people really didn't know how to work with mixed hair. For my hair wasn't coarse (black) nor straight (white) it was a weird funky mess in between! But going to Bishops today really changed the way I see salons! I used to do box dyes and relaxers (occasionally) but was always afraid to go to a salon due to what happened 12 years ago when I had to get all my hair chopped off due to prior heat damage. ***Giselle was super nice and patient with me since I felt like the salon game has changed since I've gone. She did multiple strand tests to make sure the bleach wasn't going to make my hair fall out and she helped me with colors and style. She was super professional and knew how to take care of my hair which I have never felt and I've tried all types of salons white, black, cheap like Super Cuts and boujee ones like in Los Altos. I will definitely go to her again when I want a different color change or any other service! Everyone there was actually super nice and personable! Gave me a Halloween cookie and a beer! And since the process took about 7 hours made sure I was hydrated and fed; I felt like they were a family looking out! :D*** read more

I was a walk in on a Tuesday around 2pm. There were two hairdressers there. I checked in on their iPad and was quoted a 2 hour wait... One of the hairdressers told me the person no showed and I will be up next. Good. Not sure if I would be down to wait 2 hours. I was offered a drink (sprinkling water or beer) and then I got a nice long hair wash that felt amazing. Probably the highlight of the entire service. My haircut was a simple cut and it turned out fine. First time customers' wash is free. Also Tuesdays you get a 20% discount. Overall, it was a good experience. Like I mentioned earlier I would not have waited 2 hours. I will probably be back on a Tuesday. Plenty of parking. read more
