Pros: * Easy to make an appointment or walk in * Affordable ($25) * Stylist takes time and attention with the cut Cons / Suggestions: * The haircut itself could be improved * Tried layers this time, but I'm not really fond of how it turned out--perhaps a simpler style would look better read more

Cali Hair Cut - CLEAN - Hair Salons Near Me - Martinez, California

Bad customer service, made an appointment with (Kevin?) . Arrived on time, saw him come in from the back room from lunch. He saw me, looked around, did nothing, & sat down. After waiting 15 more minutes like an idiot, I walked out and never came back. If he treats his customers like that, who needs him! read more

Great haircuts, no matter what style. Friendly service. I've been going there for 15 years.

It's fine. Basic haircuts, no problem. Getting pricey, granted we've been coming since nice it was $15 including tip. read more

Cali Hair Cut - Prices as of 01 November 2024 - Hair Salons Near Me - Martinez, California

If you're in the market for a quick and easy haircut that's a similar to Supercuts but more personal, give this neighborhood shop a whirl. Today was my first time in and Mien did a fantastic job of providing long layers for my wavy hair. The woman before me had gorgeous long, straight hair that I watched Mien trim, so I knew I was in good hands. The other two folks in the shop moved quickly and efficiently through a variety of customers they seemed to know by name, and who ranged in age from 8 to 80. Most cuts are $20 to $25.00; very reasonable for the time and attention this staff pays to their customers. P.S. Don't forget to tip! read more

Had an appointment and Henry (owner ) didn't care and took a walk in instead of honoring my appointment. I had to wait 30 minutes to get started . Bunch of bullshit read more

Loved coming by here for my haircut! The salon workers were willing to take me in an hour before closing despite there already being clients in line. They were very on top of managing clients and worked fast to get things done while also ensuring customers received the best care possible. This place is right by Walmart and a bunch of other businesses so there is usually no problem finding parking nearby. I got my long hair cut with layers and curtain bangs for $25! Would recommend if you're looking for an affordable place to cut your hair! You will be in good hands :)! read more

Henry is always patience and amazing! I am a client of his for more than 12 years! He is always friendly and listened to what I want for my hair style and gave good advice when I asked him. read more

First time customer. My boyfriend told me about Cali hair cuts... we both need one badly do I decided why not give them a try ?! He suggested that I should make an appointment and ask for Henry . Oh boy ways I happy that I did Henry gave full focus on my haircut . I've never had my hair this short before but I'm glad Henry was the one to do it read more

Cali Hair Cut - Both of our haircuts by Henry 8/03/2019 - Hair Salons Near Me - Martinez, California

Henry is the only person who can handle my boys' difficult hair and transform a mess into a work of art.

I have been a long time customer (15+ Years) and I can vouch for the great haircuts they give here. Henry is an icon here, but definitely don't sleep on the other stylists! They're awesome too read more

My husband and I both get our hair cut here every 3 - 4 weeks. I also get my brows waxed with my haircut. I've had my hair cut by every cosmetician in the place and I've never had a bad cut. My husband used to cut hair when he was in the USN decades ago and he's happy with his cut every time. We don't make appointments. We have always been walk - ins. We combine our trip to Cali with shopping at the nearby WalMart or Home Depot. We are moving to Georgia the end of March and will have to find a new hair salon. My husband can probably go to Moody AFB and get his military cut but I'm going to have to shop around. Can't beat the price at Cali. read more

Henry is a wizard with the clippers and the scissor work is always on point. I'd highly recommend going here as the price and service is worth it. Call a day or two ahead to schedule a time with Henry. He's off on Wednesday and no appointments on Saturdaya read more

Henry is awesome! He knows how to listen to what you want and deliver. I suggest making an appointment. I'm going back! My haircut was exactly what I asked for. Positive experience! read more

I have been going to Cali Hair Cut since I was about 12 years old and I am 28 now. Everyone here is so wonderful and very professional. I believe the women really know how to cut and style beautiful. And Henry is amazing at doing lineups, fades, combovers, mowhawks, pompadours, and every haircut in between. I really think that this is a hidden gem in Martinez read more

Cali Hair Cut - Always a great cut! - Hair Salons Near Me - Martinez, California

I came here last minute and they took me in. No appointment needed. Really affordable I highly recommend

My son got a very nice haircut here for a very affordable price. I didn't catch the guys name that cut his hair but he was quick and efficient. My son hates haircuts so it was nice to get him out of there quickly while still looking great. read more

Horrible haircut, bad sanitization practices. I think the lady that buzzed my hair was named Le. Should have turned the cut down if you can't fade properly. Absolutely horrible. read more

Called to see if I needed a reservation. I was visiting my parents so it was not my regular haircut place. The one star is for friendliness. My haircut is crooked, and much shorter than I intended. It looks like a kid cut some of my hair it's so bad. I can't do anything to make my hair look good and now I have to wait several months for it to grow before I can correct the mess that is my hair unless I want chin length hair... And I came in with belly button length hair which I've been growing out for years. Such a disappointment. STAY AWAY!!?! read more

I am a customer since 3 years! Mien is my favorite, she is awesome and always doing a great job. We moved and now it take me almost two hours to get there, but it's more than worth it. BIG THANKS read more

I went in here to get a simple haircut blend with scissors and the lady said I don't know how to do that I could do it with number two and it will be quicker, this place is ridiculous they don't even speak English do not get your haircut here!!!! Here's a picture of the lady that sat me down in her chair and told me all this BS lol so ridiculous and unprofessional!!!! read more

Cali Hair Cut - Hair Salons Near Me - Martinez, California

I just happened to check this place out because I came for noodles next door and they were closed. My hair was in dire need of a cut from all the split ends. They took walk-ins. And took me pretty quick. At first I was scared because all I saw was men. Annie took me and assured me they get women. I felt better. She asked me through out how I wanted my hair cut and how I usually get it cut. She is very nice, friendly and patient. She even double checked that the length is ok. She also got that tool to thin my unusually thick hair. I didn't even have to ask for it. Definitely come back in a few days for deep condition. read more

Been coming here since 2006 every 2 to 3 weeks consistently. Henry's been cutting my hair and I've never been dissatisfied. Except, when he goes on vacation once a year, becuz he isnt there :-( He also cuts my 2 younger boys hair as well, or his wife, whoever isn't busy. But they are all great hairstylist here in my opinion. I like their consistency with not being able to make an appointment. You just basically walk in write your name down on sign in sheet along with the persons name you want cutting your hair, and it's that simple! It shows they don't favor anyone even if long time customers, So, unless this place closes down or move to a farther location, I'm pretty much a lifetime customer. read more

Best place to get your haircut in town. I was visiting one of my sites in Martinez and I happened to need a haircut. Found this place, walked in, waited for 5 minutes and got seated. Henry was his name, ask how I would like my haircut and he did just as I told him, trim on the, fade-in and number one. I'm definitely coming back again read more

Been going to Cali for several years. Had to switch stylists when my original retired however they are all good so I didn't mind. Prices are fair & they take extra steps to make you look good. Also I'm somewhat particular about my length & they listen. Great shop! read more

As a guy, I'm not a huge fan of spending close to $20 to get my hair cut. These guys charge half that and do just as good of a job, if not better. They do a MUCH better job on my 6yo son's hair than the "other place" too. Great and friendly staff. They are fairly meticulous so I'm in the chair a little longer, but I don't mind. The icing on the cake is that an L&L Hawaiian BBQ place opened up right next door to it. Perfect! read more

I love getting my hair cut at Cali Hair Cuts! They are super friendly and I always get a clean, consistent cut at a great price. Everyone in the shop does a great job and Henry is like a local celebrity. Check in always goes well. More often than not we are taken to a chair right away. If there is ever a wait, we write our names down, they occasionally have appointments to take first but they always get to the list fast. My kids (5 and 7 years) have been going here for years and they love it too. The staff is great with the kids and there is always a dum dum waiting for them after their cut. A fast, friendly hair cut from a Martinez FAMILY business. Support one of our own, get a Cali Cut. read more

I have been a patron here for many years. I always take the first stylist available. Always leave very pleased. Henry and his staff know how to cut hair. I would highly recommend Cali Hair Cut. read more

Arrived at Cali Hair Cut 10 minutes to 9:30 when a guy walks in to get a hair cut. I went in at 9:30 and was not greeted with a hello, signed in and was waiting. The phone ring and when the worker answered the phone he said that they were short handed today and were not doing any appointments today only walk-ins. The phone rang 4 more times and the worker gave all the callers the same answer, no appointments only walk-ins. At 9:40 a lady walked in and signed in and had a seat. Another worker came out from the back and spoke in a different language ( Korean) and then the worker took the lady customer. At 9:55 a guy came in wearing Contra Costa County Fire clothing walked up and was taken after the first guy who was getting his hear cut was finished. I was told I would be next but couldn't to the life of me understand why I was getting passed up when the worker said that there was no appointments today and only walk-ins. I will not be going back!! read more

Came to Cali to get my usual haircut from Henry, who is always amazing. A mother was in with her adult child with disabilities, and when they were going to leave because of the line the woman with disabilities struggled, screaming and throwing a temper tantrum. The staff at Cali immediate found an opening for her, and were so supportive of the mother! Such kind, wonderful, and understanding people at this shop! read more

After moving to Martinez several years ago, I had a hard time finding a good place for a haircut until I found Cali Hair Cut. The team here is really friendly and they do a great job. I've had my hair cut by all of the staff at one point or another but have made it a point to schedule with Henry every time. I actually think Henry does better work than some of the people I've gone to in SF. Henry started to take appointments recently which has been helpful to avoid a long wait; which would have still been worth it. Prices are still reasonable and they'll always make sure you're happy before leaving. read more

I'm not from California and went to this place based on reviews. $15 for a men's haircut was a great price compared to other haircuts I've gotten here and Mien did an incredible job on my hair. read more

Tommy cut my hair for the second time and I cannot be happier. It has been years since I have had a stylist who really knows how to cut wavy hair. You need little than a blow dryer to style. Nice to wake up and look good. Salon is very clean can't wait to get a highlight! read more

We moved to Brentwood several years ago. We kept trying different barber shops around contra costa county. Finally, we found Henry after a recommendation. We have been going to Cali haircuts for a couple of years now. We don't mind making the trek from Brentwood since I know our hair gets the attention it deserves and it always gets done right! Thanks Henry for your cuts! Carlos & Jaeden read more

Cuts are great by Henry. Reasonably priced. Best thing of all is that Henry listens and tries to make your vision his mission!!!!

No hard sell. Efficient and very well priced. Lordy, I love when I get exactly what I wanted for a reasonable price!

Great service people cool and can cut hair very well everyone is allwys open to doing a good job no bad cuts from everyone that works there

My last visit here was HORRIBLE! I got the barber named Annie, and she was so rude to me. I would ask her "What do you think would look good on the top if I get a 1 on the sides?" THE LADY SAYS "I don't know. IT'S YOUR HAIR!" in a very rude tone. Like come on, can't I just get some friendly suggestions? seriously? But naw, that's not even the worst part. While she was giving me my cut, she was literally DRILLING the electric shaver into my head. It hurt SO BAD! Lady, I'm not some piece of wood that you could just carve at with intense force. After that, she didn't even talk to me at the register! Not even a thank you, or have a nice day. She just took my card, swiped it, and gave me a pen to sign the receipt; all without saying a word. Oh, and did I mention my hair looks like it was cut by Helen Keller? TL; DR - Annie is rude. She drilled her shaver into my head (it hurt.) Hair looks uglier than ever. read more

These folks give a fairly good deal *for the money.* If basic is what you need, then Cali Hair Cut is absolutely the right place for you. A basic haircut runs around $12. Their customer service sensibilities need a LOT of improvement. They get a B- for hair cutting competence, but an F- for customer service. If you drop in and have time to wait, then it works well. (Think of Southwest Airline's cattle call at the boarding gate.) If you have an appointment with a particular person, then they are not very good about keeping their commitments. Sometimes the person is there as promised, and sometimes not. Also on the downside, if you are a female and have curly hair, my wife (who has curly hair) says "don't take chances- stick with the tried & true." So straight hair only I guess is the deal? Both Henry & his wife "Quin" (Le Nguyen) are able at their craft. Quin has been barbering my hair since for quite a while. I followed her from her original location on Contra Costa Blvd in Gregory Village where she subcontracted to her new location next to Walmart in Martinez which her family owns outright. What you get for your money is a basic, competent haircut which is a good value- about 1/4th the price of a similar cut from a stylist. If what you want is something on the very high end, then keep looking or stick to your current stylist. You won't pay $200 but you won't get a $200 style either.... With Henry & Quin, think basic Hyundai rather than fancy Lexus. If basic is what you need, then Cali Hair Cut is absolutely the right place for you. read more
