I have never seen or experienced anything below the utmost respect from all these gentleman. Every single one of the barbers is friendly. They greet you when you walk in, they take you to a chair as soon as it opens up. My father even comes in from time to time to get his cut when it grows out. I go to the same barber just out of loyalty to the man for cutting my hair as long as he has. Even when he's gone, I still show up and do not hesitate to sit with one of the other barbers. I love and recommend this shop to everyone.

If you are looking for a haircut that doesn't involve a depressing conversation with a stylist who…read moreclearly wants to be anywhere else, welcome to Cut and Dry. First things first: if you find yourself wandering around the ground floor looking confused, look up. It is on the second floor. If you get lost, just follow the sound of people actually enjoying their jobs. The crew here is incredibly friendly and personable. It is the kind of place where they actually remember your name and don't treat your head like a lump of clay they are bored with. Plus, they free drinks while you wait. It is a scientific fact that a fade looks 20% better when you have a cold one in your hand. Now, let's talk logistics so you don't end up in an awkward situation at the end. This place is strictly cash only. Do not be that person digging through your wallet for a debit card while your barber stares at you with pure, friendly disappointment. Also set up appointments because they rarely have room for walk ins. It is a little pricey, sure, but you are paying for the vibe, the top tier service, and the fact that you won't leave looking like you got into a fight with a lawnmower. Just hit the ATM beforehand, grab your free brew, and enjoy the climb to the second floor. It is worth the cardio.

I've been going to Cut & Dry for years, so this review is definitely overdue. When I book there, I…read moredo not worry about choosing a specific barber. I usually go with whoever is available at a time that works for me, and I can confidently say every barber has been consistent, detail-oriented, and a great conversationalist. The vibe of the shop is very interesting with each wall having the barber's own artistic vision, from record posters, utility knife collection and surfboards. I would describe it very tropical aesthetic, like you are in paradise. You are greeted with a drink of your choice and finish with a hot towel, hair cleaning, and even a scalp massage if you want one. The barbers can also provide a consultation to help you find a style that works for you. If you ever want to try something new, they are more than capable of bringing that vision to life. It is basically the full package. I always leave the shop feeling well taken care of, with a fresh cut that has me ready for whatever event I have planned. Shout out to Mikee, Wes, Joeferson, Minh and Jestoni for taking care of me throughout the years!

I can't justify paying over $50 at an upscale salon that would consider what I want trendy nor am I interested in paying the price at a higher end barber shop that does all the frills ie hot towel etc. I was honestly just looking for a mom and pop shop that could be trusted to shave my head properly. Teos got me on as a walk in and did exactly as I asked in about 20min and for a reasonable price. I will definitely be back.

Five stars. Five glorious, shimmering stars…read more I recently had the distinct pleasure of receiving a skin fade at this fine establishment, and let me tell you -- it was less of a haircut and more of a spiritual awakening. I walked in looking like a moderately confused news anchor from 1977... and I walked out looking like I own the evening. From the moment I sat in that chair, I knew I was in capable hands. Steady. Confident. Hands that have sculpted greatness before and will sculpt it again. The fade? Seamless. Immaculate. So smooth it could narrate smooth jazz on a Tuesday night. The blend was tighter than my broadcasting schedule in '79. Attention to detail? Exquisite. Precision? Surgical. The kind of craftsmanship that makes you want to shake someone's hand firmly and say, "You are a scholar and a gentleman." The atmosphere was welcoming, stylish, and free of tomfoolery. Professional yet relaxed. Like a mahogany-paneled newsroom, but with better lighting and fewer teleprompter mishaps. When I caught my reflection afterward, I locked eyes with myself and whispered, "Stay classy." Because with a fade this sharp, how could I not? If you want a skin fade that commands respect, admiration, and possibly a slow clap from strangers -- this is the place. I will absolutely return. And that's the way the cookie crumbles.

It is truly an authentic Vietnamese barber for keeping the cultural image of Vietnamese men thru time with the artistic skills to create many wonderful crafts with very limited ingredients/ technologies/ or even with a fair ground, nothing but bare hands, artistic and intelligent brains, hardworking with the mindset to connect everyone together with each and every customer's own request to customize the best looking and unique styles sometimes provide a little touch of idea from the barbers themselves to archive the most perfect for customers when they leave the shop feeling the adrenaline pumping thru their body by their new haircuts. All the negative energies after a long day of work might just be replaced by positive energies from a simple fresh good looking haircut from Icut Barber Shop and a couple brief conversations between the guys!

They all made me feel comfortable and we talked as if we were old friends. When Quin finished up with her client I was blown away by her professionalism and thorough cleanliness of her station. She was able to answer all the questions I had and made me feel comfortable, as this was my 1st tattoo in many years. Not only that, her work is clean and detailed. I opted for a more dainty work from her typical detailed work (check out her professional instagram page @ink_hopper). She still did an amazing job and I have gotten lots of compliment by how detailed my tattoo is. I highly recommend Daygo Ink & Cuts, Artist Quinn !

I had the honor of getting tattooed by Tam. The appointment set up was easy and fast. The pricing is honestly the best ive seen compared to other shops ive been to. Tam was fast, friendly, and explained everything from beginning to end, including aftercare instructions without making me feel intimidated. He was sure to check up on me throughout the tattoo to make sure i was ok. The atmosphere is cool, almost as if you're just hanging out with friends, we were all laughing the whole time, and there were 3 other customers getting tattoos done. The artists made everyone feel comfortable and included. Their customer service is THE BEST and if you don't believe me, just go check it out for yourself. I definitely will be coming back and bringing more people to get stuff done here because the experience was just that phenomenal.

I can't say enough good things about Pappy's Barbershop…read more I recently brought my elderly father in for a haircut without an appointment, fully expecting that we might have to come back another day. Instead, the owner personally welcomed us, took the time to fit my dad in, and treated him with genuine kindness and respect. What truly touched me was his generosity. After giving my father a great haircut, the owner refused to charge us. That level of compassion and thoughtfulness is rare and speaks volumes about the kind of person he is. The haircut looked fantastic, but what stood out even more was the way he treated my dad. He made him feel comfortable, valued, and cared for, and that meant a lot to our family. It's clear that for the owner, this business is about more than just cutting hair--it's about treating people with dignity and kindness. Thank you for going above and beyond. We are incredibly grateful for your generosity and will absolutely be back. I highly recommend Pappy's Barbershop to anyone looking for excellent service from an owner who truly cares about his customers. Thank you again for your compassion and generosity!

Great work Clayton, I appreciate you!…read more I've had long hair for months and wanted to clean up and feel good. I looked through some barbershops and found Pappy's in Poway. I made an appointment yesterday and got my cut today. When I walked in, I was offered a drink, some snacks, and a place to sit. Waited just a few moments for Clayton and we got started. I did request that we have a short consult before the haircut and I made sure I came early. They're pretty booked up. I asked for Clayton's opinion, he gave it, and I agreed. It wasn't rushed and he took time to understand what I wanted. And then he delivered! The shop is kept cool, clean, and comfortable. Thanks again guys!
