Mandeep is the Veteran barber. I would rate him 10 out of 10 with the knowledge he has from his Famous Hair Cuts, beard shaving, threading, etc. Very down to earth and has great conversations. He is very precise and serious about his work. No doubt the best Barber of all time. P.S MAKE AN APPOINTMENT COUPLE DAYS IN ADVANCED read more

don't ever go here. This salon RUINED my hair. I walked in with average medium length hair and walked out with extreme short and uneven layers. The man with a big lion/ tiger tattoo on his arm cut my hair. I had specifically told him that I wanted long face framing layers and did not want to cut off too much of my length because it would be too short and he did the exact opposite of what I wanted. He was extremely unprofessional and had used the same hair brushes and combs on my hair without washing them even though he had used those on other clients. He also asked me "do you want your hair to be 100% dry?" While he was blowdrying and I said yes, then he went on to say how this wasn't included in the price im paying. That was extremely unprofessional and low of him. I've been to many hair salons but not once have I been asked if I wanted to have my hair 100% dry or half wet. Then he sent me home with poofy unstyled hair. He did not curl or straighten my hair. My scalp was wet when I got home. Please PLEASE don't go here. I regret going here. UPDATE: it's been 2 months and I'm still trying to grow my hair back. It will take another 6-8 months to get my length back. This guy really ruined my hair, it's a nightmare. I've added a picture of how my hair looks currently so see for yourself. read more

I booked an appointment for 10:30 am. One of the barbers named Arsh Kang, called me half an hour before my appointment time and asked me to do him a favor and come at 11 am so he could accommodate another client. I said ok that's fine. Then when I was on the way and less than 5 minutes away he called and said he had to turn a customer away cuz I was 5 minutes late, I hit some traffic on the way, he was upset and said I shouldn't have done that. I apologized for being running 5 minutes behind. I asked if he could give me the next slot and he said he wanted me to pay half of the money for my "missed" appointment before he would schedule me for the next one. He was not accommodating at all after I had just accommodated him and rescheduled my appointment to help him out. He only cares about money and showed no customer service skills whatsoever. I'll never be back or refer anyone to him. The reason you don't "recognize" me is because this was my first time attempting to make an appointment with your salon. Because of your poor customer service and rude attitude (Arsh's attitude over the phone and now the condescending tone of your response here) I was turned away and decided I'd rather spend my money somewhere where they respect and understand their clients. That's why you never saw me. This is the first time I've encountered such a bad attitude from a barber. I can post screenshots of where I called to schedule my appointment and also screenshots of your barber Arsh Kang who called my phone to ask me to change my original appointment. I found you on Booksy. I had no dealings with you, so please mind your business before you call me a liar and speak on something you know nothing about. So rude. read more

Great service! Kanwal is quite experienced and understands what you exactly want. He doesn't stop until you're satisfied with service. I highly recommend this place. read more

I visited this place today 0925 around 10 am and the girl who was doing my eyebrows was rude and tried plucking my eyebrows with a tweezer which hurts me. She could do same with thread. Then I told her I wanted a specific shape and she insisted on a different shape and told me to pluck with tweezer myself. So do I pay 10 dollars to do plucking myself? With her.behaviour I changed my mind and declined other services . A tip to owner..change attitude of ur staff...they cant ask clients to pluck with tweezers themselves nor can they insist on a shape which client does not want...why was she so adamant?? read more

I been coming here almost for a year now. Never had any problem. Tajinder is the best very down to earth guy and highly skilled. His prices are very reasonable. I highly suggest to make appointment up front. read more

Tajinder is very professional and understands the needs of the customer really well. His suggestions are on point and the final outcome has been great. With the level of care and ownership, this place is great for new comers and patrons who are regulars. Great job desi cuts! read more

Amazing hair+beard trim/styling. One of the best in the business at a very nominal rate for the quality of service offered. They are very kind, patient, and friendly, as well as knowledgable about what will suit you best. 100% recommend. read more

Best haircut place I found after long time , Appointment or walk-in both options available which works perfectly for me read more

I visited this place two months ago and this is such a nightmare place which I would never revisit or recommend. The place was a real mess. The people who did my haircut didn't even know how to hold scissors well. They reuse already uncleaned or unused clothes on new customers. They just don't care about customers and no neatness at all. I had to leave with great disappointment and regret. Please avoid this place if you are trying to get a good haircut. read more

Just moved here and needed a new place for eyebrows, this place was great! Done in five minutes and had my brows on point.

I've been going to Desi cuts regularly for nearly 4 years now. The place has a really chill barbershop vibe, even if you don't understand the language. Haircuts are worth every penny. Both Mandeep (owner) and his dad give great cuts. For a simple haircut, Mandeep's dad does an excellent job. For anything more, I feel Mandeep is the best in the business, especially for cutting Indian hair. Mandeep really goes the extra mile for his customers, and I highly recommend giving Desi cuts a try (if you can get an appointment, they're so popular they're booked up weeks in advance)! read more

Tony is one of the best dudes that I go to get my hair done i have being gone for the past two years thank you Tony

I have been getting my eyebrow and upper lip threaded by Rajni for almost a year. She is friendly and follows instructions well. She is quick and does a neat job. The pricing is reasonable as well. They also have an offer: get the 11th eyebrow service for free. read more

EXCELLENT SERVICE .Mandeep pahji is really good has perfection in ‍ . He knows the style . Works with appointments . Definitely recommended to everyone read more

Best Service and very skilled team. I usually go with Teji. I would highly recommend anyone looking for fresh haircut with perfect fade or taper. And don't forget make an appointment before visiting and if you don't mind waiting then just walk in. read more

TL;DR : Mandeep did and excellent job with the fade and beard. Walk in on weekend took upto 2 hours :( At the end it was worth it. Would definitely come again. May be with reservation next time :) Pro : *Got razor fade exactly like I wanted. * Mandeep knows his game and is pretty nice to talk to. He's passionate about his work and it shows. * Reservations taken. Cons : * It may take upto 30 mins even with reservations. * Long wait hours for walk ins (Can go upto 2 hours so get a book or charger) Parking : Lot's of parking out in the front. read more

There's nothing like a great haircut to get your confidence up and feeling fresh. I've been coming to Desi cuts almost year now because I consistently get an amazing Beard and haircut I've tried many barber shops before finding Desi cuts, because I couldn't get a consistent quality cut anywhere I went. The search for a barber ended when I found Mandeep. Mandeep remembers exactly how I like my hair and executes perfection every time. He takes his time and ensures that I'm satisfied as well as him. He has a pretty big following so Its always better to make appointment. they do accept walk ins on weekend . Mandeep is as skilled as they are friendly. They treat you like family. My favorite thing about coming here is they know exactly how to cut your hair without even saying anything. Every haircut is consistently perfect. Prices are reasonable and it's a real neighborhood gem. I definitely recommend coming here. read more

Taj was very nice and did my daughters layers perfectly she loves her hair, we will continue to come back to him for her cut! Takes his time to style the hair and make sure the layers are perfect read more

I love getting my eyebrows done here! I've been going for years to this same place. They have raised their prices from $6 to $10, but the service has stayed consistent so I don't mind the price difference. The lady is neat and super quick, and I never spend more than 5 minutes here. Besides, ever since the pandemic almost all places have. The woman there makes you feel incredibly welcomed, and gets to you ASAP. You also have your own section in the shop away from the hair cuts, so you don't feel too overwhelmed. read more

Well the wait is over..... New service added finallyyyy Avoid the long wait in line thats old now and call in prior and make an appointment for much quicker service Best service and no wait at all... Showed up 10 mins before my appointment and everything went smooth and accordingly. I Was shocked and was not expecting that but you know what now ill return every other week instead of me thinking 5 times before and manage my timing to avoid the long line of people waiting before me all the time... Appointment service is best!!! See you soon again and keep it up! read more

Went there for an appointment with Tony. Someone else cut my hair though(an older person). I explained how I wanted him to cut my hair. He starts by cutting it very small even though I specifically mentioned that I do not want my hair small. Half way through he tells me that hey I am not going to cut your hair the way you want but I will cut it in a different manner because that's what I can do with your hair and proceeds to cut my hair very short from the sides(no fade) and leave a bunch on the top. That's definitely not something I wanted but the damage was already done. Even the local supercuts gives a much better haircut for much cheaper. Not sure how this place is rated so high on yelp read more

Simple, clean, quality haircut. That's all I needed and exactly what I got. Will come back.

2nd time going here. My first visit was 5 stars, the lady who did my eyebrows was fast and the thread they used doesn't hurt so much. I'm giving them 3 stars for my 2nd visit. I was in and out for exactly 10 mins. Everything was perfect except when I first got there, I asked if they accept card since I forgot to bring cash with me. They said yes and did my eyebrows. After doing my eyebrows, the lady informed me that they charge an extra $1 for credit cards which is fine with me, if they told me when I first asked them about using a card. Not really tripping about the $1 extra, I just hope next time they inform the customer ahead of time. read more

I have been going here for over 3 years now and this for me simply one of the best places to have my hair cut and beard done in the Bay area. I get it done from Mandeep and he exactly understands how I need my hair cut and beard done. He never rushes through even though there might be several people waiting on him, he is ok to loose few customers than to rush and try to accommodate everyone to get the business. One thing I'd be specifically point out is if you don't have an appointment and are walking in, be willing to spend a couple of hours wait time for mandeep else do not go there and get cranky about the long wait. I'd definitely recommend this place for a perfect hair cut and beard, give it a try and you'll not be disappointed. read more

Been going to this place for 3 years now. Ever since I started going here I've only gotten my haircut from Mandeep. He can cut it any style and line up beards. We have created multiple looks that now are trendy styles for teenagers to adults. Just ask for the "Harj special" Cheers Harj read more

I have been coming to Desi Cuts for more than a year now and its a fantastic place. I have tried several hair salons in the bay area but Mandeep is simply the best. He takes a good time to understand your need and is very patient and talented while working on your hairs. The appointment system works fantastic for me and I never ever have any complaints with hair cut or beard cut. The entire staff at Desi cuts is amazing and cheerful !! I would highly recommend him to anyone who is looking for hair salon services and wish him all the luck. read more

I am a little too apprehensive to change barbers... I used to drive all the way to san jose to get my hair cut... But one time i wasnt able to go for more than 2 months and had to find a place closer to home... I decided to take a chance here... I was plesantly surprised... Mandeep understands what you need and does a great job... I only wish he took appointments ... read more

Best hair cut ever in the Bay Area. I lived just 1 block from the shop n never realized its there. The guy Mandeep is nice and always ready for help or suggestion for your better hair care and styles. Just had to wait more than 1 hr, but I think it was worth waiting for. read more

..of course certainly best haircut in Union city but there is a wait time if you walk in directly with out appointment especially during the weekends. I would definitely recommend this place especially for Desis, who want their hair cut with scissor finishing :) read more

When the customer tells, keep the volume and do not cut too much hair. Please listen to them.The dad didn't do a good job at the hair cut and refused to listen to what i had to say. Very dissatisfied with my sons haircut. I will never go there again. We come to indian hair salons thinking you will understand what we tell and will listen to what we want. But i was wrong. You lost a customer read more

I've always been very picky with who cuts my daughters hair... Since my stylist didn't have time i needed a quick compromise and i couldn't have asked for better... Mandeep cut her hair and listened to my needs and want. I wouldn't hesitate to return. He does mainly specialize in men's line ups and cuts but i say if he can cut a little girls hair of a demanding moms need, he knows what hes doing... keep up the good work... also ive also have gotten my eyebrows threaded here and it was a great experience though she tends to be busy but she knows what shes doing and doesn't make your eyebrows loose it natural shape which i love... read more

I came here because the sign on the door said they do razor fades and walk-ins are welcome. I walked in and asked if I could get a haircut and an elderly man sitting there told me, "No, appointment only", despite the sign on the door (and claim on here that says they take walk-ins) and the shop being empty. The barber was standing behind him with an empty chair and just looked at me but didn't say anything. I suppose every business has the right to refuse service to whomever they want, but do them and yourself a favor and don't try coming here if you're white, they obviously don't want your service. Go across the street to Precision Cutz, the guys are nice and do a good job. read more

I walked in and no communication was received for 30 mins. Couple of white looking folks walk in, and get greeted warmly and asked about their reason for visit. It's a shame that this place is called desi cuts. read more

Mandeep is the man! You can't beat his quality fades for the price - $12 bucks, 6th cut is $3 off, and 11th is free. My really straight Asian hair is hard to fade cleanly but Mandeep cut it like a pro. Plus, he's a cool guy and a Niner fan. read more
