    Getting handsome!
    Genie Q.

    I have all boys and they have a hard time describing haircuts as do I. These guys have them walking out looking great every time. There are only 2 barbers and there may be a wait because everyone loves them, but it's worth it.

    Finally a place in SD that knows the difference between low fades, high fades and tapers great haircuts at a great price $10 a cut. So good I live in Vista and come all the way down to get my cut every Saturday. Check it out!

    Really professional. Very busy place. You can tell the haircuts are good because so many men were there waiting when it opened.

    These guys are usually busy. Worth the wait. They'll probably be cutting my hair as long as I have hair to cut.

    High quality. Rediculously inexpensive. The down side is they only have two barbers and there's typically a good wait.

    Calvin & Mike are the best. You can't beat this price & cut you will get here. It's a wait but it's worth it.

    Still the best hair cut I've gotten in San Diego…read more I have been going here for over 8 years and have never had a bad hair cut. The hair cuts are always consistent and look great, but the consistency is what I appreciate. Steven is my barber. He took me in as a walk-in years ago and have stayed with him ever since. Steven also cuts my son's hair so it's always fun to go together and get our ears lowered. There are currently 4 barbers here. All are super cool with fun personalities. They always have music or a movie playing. They also have a beer fridge, so help yourself if you're thirsty. Hair cut prices are fair, in my opinion, because you get a great quality cut and a shaving cream/razor finish. Cuts cost $35 You make your appointments on their website. They have a phone number that you can call them, but thy prefer you make your appointment online. I downloaded the Booksy app and make my appointment that way. It's super easy and straight forward. I don't think they always take walk-ins but you can try your luck.

    I've been coming here since I moved across the street a couple of years ago. I have sat in every…read morechair in the shop and every one of the barbers deliver a top notch haircut. Kyle is my go-to when our schedules match (Kevin is my backup, but equally good. As are all of the guys.) It's always nice when your guy remembers you and I always have a great time catching up. I just had my first haircuts in six months and he still knew exactly what I wanted. I walked out clean and felt great. I always enjoy the crew working the chairs. Good Padres talk and people that know the area and make me feel like I'm at home. They recently redid the inside of the shop and it looks awesome, BUT they took out one of the TVs and three of the five chairs have to stare at the wall if they don't feel like being social. I love the cuts and the conversation, but I miss being able to see the TV from my seat. I hope it doesn't affect which barbers get people because of that. Big fan of these guys and super happy to have them nearby!

    Update: The owner's response is not true. It was not 15 minutes late, after your response I checked…read moremy phone to be sure. And no, I was not offered another stylist, just that we were too late and out of luck. That's the truth of what happened, let's be honest. Good luck with your business, I for one will be sure to share my experience. We've had decent haircuts here before, but won't be going back. I had an appt that we were running late for, so I called to let them know. They guy was super rude, dismissive, basically scolded me that they have a ten minute policy (we were going to arrive at 12 mins past) I get the policy, but SURELY people run ten mins late on occasion, this guy acted like we were out of our minds. A simple "so sorry, can't take the appt" would suffice. And they still charged me $20 for a "missed appt" Taking my three teenage boys and my business elsewhere.

Him and the talented crew that used to work at Dapper Jay's now dominate the barber space in a new, dope location I can't say enough about these guys. They're some of the best dudes around. I've been going to Steven for almost 7 years. He always gives a great, consistent cut and I appreciate that. Best haircut I've ever had. But more than that he's a great person and genuinely cares about his clients. They're like my second family and we never miss a beat every time we connect again. I can't recommend Natt, Steven, and the rest of the crew enough!

I got cut by Larry; friendly, welcoming, great conversation, an all around professional barber, great music and a friendly environment. Price was 30 for the cut.

I contacted Tim via text, May 1 who indicated receiving an email notification of the transaction (full text messages may be uploaded to Google and Yelp). Nonetheless, Tim agreed to refund the in error payment. On May 2, I contacted Venmo, conveyed the situation, and they provided a case number for Tim to use to reverse the $190 transaction. Although I provided Tim with the case number and instructions of the process, I didn't hear back from him for 3 weeks, by which time I had already disputed the charge with my bank and venmo canceled the claim due to the owner of Legendz failed to contact venmo to dispute the claim (email reply will be attached to Google and Yelp). When communicating with Tim via text, he's insisting that I contact Venmo again to reverse the charges, which I'm unable to do. Tim has sent voice and text messages expressing extreme frustration about the inconvenience and mentioning an issue with his significant other, but I'm unclear how that relates to him taking $190 from me. I've informed him that I've spoken to my bank to dispute the charge. As of today, July 17, 2025 my banking institution finds "no error" thereby reversing the disputed amount of $190.00. The unnecessary waste of my time has led to mental frustration and confusion, resulting in a series of issues including gas, debit card replacement, a new credit card, a Better Business Bureau complaint, public notification through various media outlets, and a small claims court case for $190, plus any additional fees (court & notary) etc. Side note: My transactions with venmo clearly show no transactions between, Tim and myself since August 16, 2023. However, the business I intended to pay reflects $190 transaction on multiple occasions in the past year and a half. My initial interaction with Tim required me to make a deposit for first time consumers per his policy, after the initial visit he reversed the deposit on venmo thereby crediting my account. What sets this transaction apart? The owner of Legendz Barber shop has stolen a $190 invalid payment then later created a scenario to justify stealing my money and needless to say Tim and myself never had an altercation when I was a client.
