It's been years since I'd been in a great clips. Back when it was 6.99. Now it's $20-23. That's just the increased cost of things now. Plus $5 tip. Reviews I thought it was for women n kids but only men were getting their hair cut. No recent photos but reviews recently seemed great. The bad: Asked if the example photos we had were possibly for my daughter's hair type. Thick. Straight. And added we don't have curling irons or any products. Is this an easy style? Was told Yes and that she could do it. Ok great so she got started. Again very nice ladies working here. After finished my daughter covered in hair I was a bit surprised how the cut looked. I asked if there's something we need to know. Advice on how to obtain the example look. She responded well her hair is just so thick. As if to say no. I asked if the starting hair cut was a problem, she said no, only one small hidden area was too short but she said it was hidden so not an issue. So I'm not sure why she cut her hair so short and boxy. She thinned it a little. But if this cut isn't possible with thick hair, a simple Not recommended would have been nice instead of yes then attempt then act like it's great and when I ask about getting it to look like the example then say oh it's just too thick. No other suggestions on how to fix it or alternative cuts, just nada. Also no clean up of the hair at all, I remember being brushed off a bit after cuts and the place we use to go always cleaned up the hair. There was sooo much hair on my daughter's shirt n face. We cleaned her off in the parking lot. I still tipped 25% because again, she was nice and can cut better than we can and it's just rough financially for everyone, so I tip. Not sure how to fix this. We stink at being assertive so my daughter just said "it's fine." We spent the evening watching tutorials on how to fix it but seems growing it back out and maybe asking a few places their options for her hair type is the best solution. Not a repeat.

Just a few min wait for a cut.

My sister called Saturday morning to set an appointment & we were told "you can just walk in"...... okay cool. We walk in, all the tables are full & I'd say there were about 10 ladies waiting. We check in on their iPad with no assistance. There are a million options that have no description of what even comes with the service so some guidance would've been nice. The lady at the front desk didn't smile at ALL. I asked "are you guys still doing the free pedicure with a full set?" & says: "No." Most people who know how to work a customer service position might say something like "oh, we actually don't have that special anymore but we do have ______". But just plain out "No." ??? After we struggling with picking the service we wanted, she told us to have a seat... I was wondering if she wanted me to sit on the floor because there was no seating. If the customer service was better, if the front desk was more polite, I really wouldn't have minded a little wait time. But with the attitude I was given on a Saturday morning after having a yummy breakfast & my iced coffee, it was disappointing to be given this bad taste in my mouth. We left immediately because it didn't really seem like she cared to have our business anyway. I'll show you a photo of the Instagram page that still says "FREE REGULAR PEDICURE WITH FULLSET " that's on their instagram page. The front desk is lacking as much as the updates on their Instagram page apparently. Won't be coming here again, ever

I was very impressed with "Heidi", who was efficient and kind. I entered the barbershop at 7:56 pm,…read more4 minutes before closing. I asked if she could do 1 more haircut, and she smiled and said, "Yes!". The barbershop was very clean and looked like it was recently opened with shiny chairs (see the picture) and all of the furniture looking new. However, I noticed a Yelp review was over 12 years ago, so, La Guasavena Barber Shop has been here in Escondido since around 2014. When it was my turn, I noticed that with the previous customer, she was conversing primarily in Spanish. So, to make it easier, I showed her a picture of Captain Carson Teva, from the Mandalorian, who I will be Cosplaying him next week at the Star Wars Night at Disneyland. I mentioned that I was taking my daughter (little did she know my daughter is 27 years old) to Disneyland. So, she proceeded to employ her skills and quickly dispatched the long hair that my wife was complaining about and gave me a very neat trim. I dare say I now look like Captain Carson Teva!!! Amazing!!! I thoroughly expressed my gratitude and the haircut was $30 plus a little extra for coming last minute and she finished me up by 8:15 pm. And she said, "Now you're ready for Disneyland!". Since it was dark, I drove past the barbershop and went back around. There is only street parking from what I could tell. I parked next to See's Candies. I asked if she also cuts for women's hair. And she does. Great experience at La Guasavena Barber Shop!!!
