Boss Cuts was an absolutely awesome experience from start to finish! We booked an appointment for my boyfriend, Tim, who had previously gone to places like Fantastic Sams and Supercuts (nothing wrong with them) , but wanted to try out a true barber experience--and we're so glad he did! Right from the beginning, the team was super communicative, even reaching out about earlier openings for his scheduled time. Becky, who was working the front desk, was incredibly friendly, kind, and helpful. She set a warm and welcoming tone right away. Tim's haircut was done by Jason, who was phenomenal. He was warm, personable, and genuinely funny--keeping a great conversation going while still showing exceptional focus and care in his technique. What really stood out to Tim was how intentional Jason was. He took the time to ask questions, understand exactly what Tim was envisioning, and made sure the cut matched his needs. Every step of the haircut felt thoughtful and precise, never rushed, yet the vibe stayed upbeat and fun throughout. Tim found himself laughing through the whole experience! The entire atmosphere at Boss Cuts was so positive, welcoming, and professional. Tim walked out not only with a great haircut, but also having found his new go-to barber. The price for the service we received was also amazing He's already booked his next appointment! Huge thanks to Jason, Becky, and the whole Boss Cutz team for delivering such top-tier service and making us feel so valued. This was our first visit--but definitely not our last! read more

Worst Hair cut and beard trim ever. The guy didn't listen to me. I asked for a simple trim and he shaved my head bald. It was like he was on his own trip and didn't care how the haircut or beard trim looked. Jason tried to salvage the beard trim but It was too late. They did not charge me for it, but I wish I hadn't gone there. I will not be back. read more

Amazing my son and husband came in on a Tuesday as walk ins, it was clean, organized and friendly. The setting was welcoming and all barbers were so approachable it was great! Their tools and attention to detail and lines were perfect. Both my husband and son are very particular and both barbers were so good and skilled! read more

I came to the big island to get married. I came across Boss Cutz on Yelp. They immediately caught my attention because they were the highest rated barbershop in town. I have pretty high expectations when it comes to getting my haircut, and based on the ratings I knew I could trust them. I had the pleasure of getting cut by Jason the owner. I must say he's a very talented barber. I asked for a skin bald high fade and I got exactly that and much more. I couldn't thank him enough for making my hair look right on my wedding day. Jason and his crew are super funny. They're all approachable and friendly. They all love cracking jokes especially Jason. I left the barbershop with sore cheeks because I laughed the whole time I was there. If you're looking for a quality cut look no further..seriously. You won't be disappointed! Right on J! Thank you for the dope cut! read more

I found this barber shop here on Yelp. I was looking for a spot that my son (5yrs old) could get a fohawk and a lightning bolt shaved on the side of his head. I've taken him to other places and they've given him a fohawk but no one was comfortable doing the lightning bolt. This was my sons first experience at an actual barber shop and he was super stoked. The employees were great. Joram was his barber and gave him the style he wanted. Mahalo for making my kids day. We will likely be returning for the upkeep. read more

So I am new to the island and if I could I Would Give This Place 10 STARS I am new to the island and getting adjusted and finding my bearings. Had to make an appointment and it was a little of a wait.... WORTH THE WAIT I was lucky to get the owner Jason I truly think he has given me one of the best haircuts I have ever gotten. I was concerned moving after going to someone else after my last barber has been cutting me for 10 years. The entire staff is beyond professional, personable and just all around nice. read more

BOSSCUTZ is the place to go!! moved here from the mainland and thought i wouldn't be able to find a good barber. but i was able to find not one but two good barbers who can cut my hair the way i like it. especially on their busiest days (IRONMAN) they'll do their best to get you in. the atmosphere is amazing when you arrive. the team is very friendly and i wouldn't go to anyone else. hands down the best to go to on the big island. tried leaving a google review but wouldn't let me, so YELP it is. read more

Son was taken to a barber shop and they messed up bad. When I saw him I said yea no, this needs to be fixed. Hair emergencies, call Bosscutz!!

Super stoked for my kid and super thankful for all the love and kindness we got from the shop! You guys are awesome!!! read more

Bosscutz is by far the best barbershop I have EVER been to. Having gotten my hair cut every 2 weeks since 2005, I've never walked out of a place feeling more confident. The vibe is amazing, beautiful chairs and decor. The staff ifs so supportive and exceptional with customer service. Due to extinguishing circumstances they were able to accommodate a much needed cut for 2 individuals who were otherwise unable to get one. They support people of recovery and they support many other organizations. I will forever go to Bosscutz so long as I am in Kona. read more

Best haircut hands down! If you are searching for a spot to get a top notch haircut this is the place!

In town for my brother-in-law's wedding and needed a cut. As a barber myself and only allowing one other barber to cut my hair for the last 20 years, I was a bit nervous, but Jason pulled through for me and delivered exactly what I was looking for. If in town and in need of a cut, Jason is your guy! read more

Good vibes and solid line up and cut. My barber Jason, did an amazing job and EXACTLY what I was looking for with the pictures I gave him. Definitely coming back for the touch ups read more

We have been a few time to Bosscutz, and each time has been great for my 8 year old son. They are precise, the atmosphere is awesome, and have honored our reservation times. When you are looking for a sharp, good looking haircut, go to Bosscutz! read more

Very expensive for a mediocre haircut. Cool vibes, great music. But not worth the $60 + tip my guy had to pay. Maybe they overcharged us cuz we looked like we were not from around Kona? I don't know. Next time we will try Supercuts. If there is a next time.. read more

Hostile environment if your a haloe. The guy kept on talking about how he wanted a haloe to start something with him so he could beat the crap out of him. As a white foreigner sitting there getting my haircut by another worker. Made me uncomfortable. Also the barber that cut my hair did a horrible job. Doesn't know how to line above the ears. Cut some of my eyebrow off. All that to pay 55 dollars. Worst hair cut experience I've ever had. Save your money and time. If I could give them zero stars I would. Don't even deserve 1/5. read more

I am getting married at the Four Seasons this coming Tuesday in Kona. I searched Yelp for the best reviewed Barber Shop and Jason was hands down AMAZING! I love love love my haircut for my wedding. I think I'm gonna have to fly back and forth to Kona now, just to get my monthly cut. 1,000 X MAHALO JASON!!! read more

Bosscutz - Haircut - Barbers Near Me - Kailua-kona, Hawaii

After reading the owners comment on my previous post - this was no where near out of my price range, however obviously up charged for having been haole in a shop full of local boys. When the cashier looked at me, hesitated before saying the cost and looked back at me I knew I was being played. Discrimination is obvious and the $55 you charged for a 5 minute 'hair cut' done by an apprentice who has worked for you, by his own word... for four months and did not even listen to what I asked for (i wanted the whole undercut down to the skin with no guard on the clippers and was given a fade that i will need to just have shaven down again in a few days... and will pay AT THE MOST $15 for, no matter where I go) is a complete fabrication to screw over someone you think is a dumb tourist. Dont even deserve 1 star read more

I typically cut my own hair and have trouble trusting other people to cut my hair. However, when I was in Hawaii, I decided to get a haircut. The reviews suggested Boss Cutz Barber Shop is the go to spot In Kona and I was not disappointed. The shop is clean and nicely decorated. The chairs are comfortable and cool looking. There are television screens visible in all directions. Even the barbers' shirts are modern and sleek. The shop maintains a barber shop feel, but with a twenty-first century twist. Jeremiah was my barber. He asked me what I wanted and spent over an hour and a half providing me with the perfect cut. read more

The shop is want one wants in a local barber shop. When I came it it felt like I had been going to them for years. Justin was great, awesome haircut, he was quick, and had a great conversation. read more

Great Environment with funny people and REAL barbers. They do great fades. Any of the Barbers are legit, but I would recommend Prince. I'm definitely going back read more

Great beard cut and line up by Jeremiah. Super friendly, chill shop. First cut in two years since lock down. So glad I went here.

What a treat! On vacation here on the Big Island and wanted to get my bald head cleaned up and my unruly beard trimmed. Great job by Jason and crew. Very chill and friendly neighborhood vibe, great music playing and everyone is so warm and welcoming. I highly recommend Bosscutz as a great way to pamper yourself and feel just a little sharper than when you walked in. You won't regret it. read more

I am a little confused about all of the amazing reviews, other than possibly for skill. We read great things about Jason, so my husband scheduled a haircut with him, even though it was a little more than he normally would spend. I came with to the appointment. We have not encountered anyone else so cold at a salon/barber/service. Part of what makes the haircuts long is the time watching TV or videos on phones, etc. That would be more okay if there was interaction with the customer and a more warm personality. I heard my husband request something specific for his haircut, and it was brushed aside. I'm not sure if it was heard, because I watched [in horror] as the very opposite was done. I actually left the appointment, because I couldn't watch any longer. At the end of the day, the haircut was well done (whew!), but it was very different than what was requested and a rough experience. There was a lady also cutting hair who spent the appointment talking with the couple that came in. That was refreshing to see. read more

Amazing hair cut and fixed the mistakes of a barber from down the street highly recommended I get a cut every 1-2 weeks in Los Angeles

First time trying this shop. I liked the online appointment and securing my time. No waiting. Place was clean and busy. Sports on the TVs ,music mix playing in the background. My barber was quick and made great suggestions. I found my new home to get my hair cut. read more

Probably the best haircut I've had, GREAT JOB Jason!! Even though he was a little behind and had to wait a little it was totally worth it. I'm coming back again when I'm in need of a haircut or back in Kona. The atmosphere is friendly and wanting to make you look great before you step out of there building which I really like because I'm picky on my hair. I would defiantly recommend this place if your looking for a good haircut be sure to make an appointment or your not getting in. read more

I came here by appointment with my messy & shaggy hair. Jeremiah cut my hair and completely transformed my look. He was great and sociable. He took his time, used a lot of tools and products, and kept asking me if I liked the progression of his work. I did indeed! I came out of there smiling & feeling great, not to mention looking great. I did pay more than I'm used to (I'm from PA), BUT I have no issue paying for a job well done and great customer service! They deserve it. Definitely recommend this place to everyone. They live up to their reputation and name! read more

Made an appointment two days before with Jeremiah. He calls me the day of to postpone the appointment by 30min saying he had a meeting. When I show up at the later time, the entire crew was playing RC cars outside in the parking lot while 3 customers were waiting inside. After coming in, Jeremiah made me sit in a chair and told Bubba to cut my hair instead. The haircut wasn't very good. Bubba was genuinely nice and patient but he was very inexperienced with Asian hair. We spent 75min total trying to do an undercut that didn't require any fades. In the end he was nice enough to give me a 25% off since there were parts of my hair he cut too short and we just couldn't fix. read more

Good COVID prevention. Great atmosphere. Friendly staff. Jason trimmed my beard and did a great job. Highly recommend. I'm 60 and have had a beard most of my life. read more

Bosscutz finally has its new Yelp page. Unfortunately, because of the new location/name change, all the great feedback and reviews do not carry over. First things first, this is the best barbershop (for men) in Kona. No doubt about it. Jason is highly skilled, immensely thorough, and is only getting even better. He dedicates himself to his craft and is very passionate about it. Starting off his career in a different salon, he eventually decided to start his own shop and converted his garage at home to JBS Barber shop. Word spread, good haircuts were being seen, and his popularity grew - hence the need for the storefront location Bosscutz is currently at. With the new location, not only has all of the past clientele on board, but now there is a ton of foot traffic that sees the shop, so definitely do call in beforehand to make a reservation. Jason takes his time with cuts, and doesn't rush in any way. This is one of the things that makes him so much better than some other places- who rush and do a half ass job. Call first, make the reservation, then you don't have to sit and worry about how many people are in front of you. Jason can do just about anything you can come up with, from standard cuts to beard trimming to fades and line ups. The inside of the ship is new, comfortable, has ample seats to sit and relax, and he has two TVs on as well as magazines to peruse. The AC is crisp and it's always good fun to talk story with Jason and anyone else in the shop at the time. Women don't fret, directly across from Bosscutz is a full on salon and spa. 101 salon and spa is award winning and the best in town. There is plenty of parking (tight spaces but you'll do fine), and a plethora of dining options within the same plaza. I would recommend poke from Umekes on the corner. read more
