I visited today 27 February 2026, Expert barber shop. Fair and reasonable price. All I had to say were a few words and the barber did the rest. Hair cut was perfect! I highly recommend Calvin's Cut Barber Shop. Thank you so much!! read more

The younger guy with tats just cuts your hair doesn't even try to do what you asked for. 3rd time walking around with a bad fade/ haircut from him. His coworker is the better choice. read more

Calvin has been my barber for the last few years and talk about consistency, Calvin and T are always on point the fades and line up come out crispy and fresh every single time. Best barbers in Spring Valley hands down read more

Calvin cut my hair just showed him a photo of how I usually combine my hair and 20 minutes later I had a fresh fade

Good haircut, clean barber, good quality haitcut. T is great! Priced right for the service and time they spent to do a great job. read more

I love Calvin's and i don't like getting my hair cut anywhere else. My only point to improve on the business is to suggest that him and his counterpart have a numbering system to indicate how many people are actually in line when you walk in. My son and I got there yesterday and thought we were fourth and ended up being eighth in line because of people waiting in their cars outside that I had no clue about. They would just jump in front and frankly it was rude and just looked like they were cutting but obviously it was understood by them and not me that they were also waiting outside instead of in store which in my opinion is the only place you should wait, apart from that you shouldn't maintain your place in line. I sat in there with two tired kids for an hour and change waiting because that's what you do when in a line or you leave and come back later. I may not have waited the hour and a half if I had known about the bunch of people waiting outside. read more

These guys can cut and have been cutting my hair since I was a kid, 25+ years. Thanks for all the great cuts!!

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.

Calvin Cut barber Shop is the best in town. Excellent Service!!! Been coming here for many years and recommending people to this spot.

Is like going to a barber school and paying for regular barber services. Just find normal barber and pay the extra because these guys suck BIG time. No customer service and most importantly no skills of cutting hair. Never coming back to this place again. read more

Calvin's shop always provides excellent service from Calvin himself or the other younger Barber whose name I forget that has a lot of tattoos. They're very thorough with how they work and I are very friendly. They shop also provides reasonable prices with outstanding work. In this modern day and age, there are barbers out there who charge hundreds of dollars for a haircut, but will never be as good as the guys over at Calvin's barbershop simply cut hair because they love it and provide an exquisite service for the community. read more

Best haircut in town. Been going to Calvin for over 15 years .Him and his partner that works there are awesome.

Great place in a convenient location. Stop by and get a great cut at a reasonable price. Staff is very friendly as well, definitely worth it. read more

I've been coming here for about a year. The guys cutting hair are awesome and friendly. The wait is never too long even of there are others ahead of you. Highly recommend!!! read more

They did an amazing job on my son's hair! I wish we still lived in SD so we could go to them regularly. We don't though, so we'll have to plan his cuts around our visits back home. read more

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. read more

Calvin's Cut Barber Shop - Barbers Near Me - La Mesa, California

Been gettin my haircut from Calvin for the past 15 years...all my homies go to him and even take my 3 boys there as well

This Asian man working there is an absolute sexist pig! I took my girlfriend to get her haircut (which was the SAME EXACT haircut as the guy in the chair he was cutting) and the barber refused to cut her hair. He said "I don't cut women's hair". He then proceeded to RUDELY shoo us with his hand and say "try a salon". Um, we both are women, don't you think we would've went to a salon in the first place if we fucking wanted to? We went to a barbershop for a reason! I asked him why and he said he didn't want "a bad rep" for cutting women's hair... but the haircut she wanted was THE SAME EXACT HAIRCUT as the guy in the chair? He was definitely unprofessional and embarrassed my girlfriend and I in front of other customers in the store. Even the guy in the chair felt bad for us asking what kind of haircut she wanted. Disgusting place! ABSOLUTELY DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS PLACE. read more

Amazing hospitality...Low price....Great cut

Took my son to Calvin's today for his first barber shop haircut. Couldn't have been happier with his fresh and stylish fade. Calvin is always dishing out great cuts and is very efficient and comforting during the process. Thanks again, Calvin! read more

See all

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

I've been getting cut by Calvin for 15 plus years and I'm surprised on the bad reviews. He hands down is better then most those other competition barbers that charge 30 bucks or more! He always has me looking fresh with the taper fade and he is not over charging!! Check out this spot!! He's super legit!! read more

This is one of the worst shops I have been in. Used them twice using 2 different barbers. Both times they ignored my request to leave my hair on the longer side. My hair was so short it needed product to keep the part from standing straight up. It has taken 3weeks for it to grow out enough to look ok. I suggest you go elsewhere. read more

This is my goto Barber. Calvin is the owner. He just opened this shop a few months back. He always provides the best cut. Ask for Calvin!

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.

Great friendly customer service. I have a barber I usually go to that's out the way. They were close to me and I had to get my son's hair cut so I took him in. Barber did such a great job I got a cut too. Highly recommend. read more

Being a barber is about taking care of the people, & This barber shop does just that, the barber (Calvin) always goes above & beyond on every customer he attends, I highly recommend him. read more
