    Great environment all the barbers here are great. I got a mid skin fade and a beard line up by Steezy and he took his time and provided superior service. The hot towel service was spot on. I appreciate the attention to detail and great customer service. Definitely will be back to the barbershop.

    My sons first haircut

    Brought my son here for his first haircut and always go back! Thx to the owner, Manny, and all the barbers for great service!

    I'm the process of getting a high fade.(I think it was a high fade).

    I'm super picky about my son's hair especially his lineup and this place did a great job on his hair. My son is full black with thick 4C hair. He got a high fade I believe?(his dad took him). I was so worried and kept telling his dad "they better not mess up my baby's hair! What's the name of the guys cutting it!" He said his name was "Art" idk how true that is but whoever cut some son's hair you did a wonderful job and I'd love to go back and get his hair done again by the same barber. My son looks upset because his hair was grown out how he likes it but his dad cut it low lol he liked it afterwards and was smiling and saying he wants waves

    Fresh cut to perfection

    Funny how I met many barbers in my life and I prefer to drive 25-45 minutes and pay $25+ and wait for the right barber even if there is 5 to 10 people in front of me. The owner Manny which I met back 7 years ago and still to this day I got to know more than just a barber or a friend but family. The haircuts are superb class A haircut. From the clean shape-ups to the perfect full even fades to the lined up beards and the awesome line designs. Any type of hair Manny can make you look like a superstar. And for the best results explain what you want because barbers can't read minds. Another thing, he observes for any imperfections and if there's any advice, he will recommend. The environment is great mixed race with funny personalities if there is any ladies or kids they tone down the from a guys hang out spot to a more interpersonal. The design was made to bring home here which is New York and Manny brought his east coast talent to the west and has overachieved his goals and continues to give great haircuts. All other barbers are great at their job too but as I traveled and learned that there is only a few barbers that can actually give the same excellence and consistency as these barbers here. With TVs video games music and fun this is more than just a barbershop, it is the best experience and worth every minute and penny that you spend here.

    Best barbershop in the west. My boy manny cutz always get me fresh

    Khay is the real MVP ! I come at least once a month to get my locs washed, retwisted and sometimes styled. Her work is outstanding and so are her vibes! She loves what she does, you can see it and you can feel it. She does her best to make sure what you want is what you get. I honestly never leave disappointed.

    Shout out to my Barber Manny. Airways gets it right and love the fresh look... Stop in and see ANY OF the Barbers at East 2 West.

    Left side

    I payed a visit to this barbershop and requested a low skin taper with 1/2 in. off the top. The right side of my head looks like the barber started the fade but never finished. I have a legit line on my head that gets worse as the hair grows back in which I find funny being that he spent about 10-15 minutes on that one side. The rest of the fade is decent. The top of my head is extremely uneven. Overall my cut took over an hour and I was really disappointed once I got home and saw that I wasted my time and money for a ridiculous cut. Maybe it was just the barber that I got but I will not be returning.

    Manny, the owner, has been cutting my hair for about 5 years now, all the way up until i moved recently to the bay area. I followed him from shop, to shop, to school to shop and everywhere in between. He is hands down the single greatest barber I've had cut my hair. I wish that i could find a barber even half as good as he is up here, but i have yet to have any luck. I even flew down twice, a month before my wedding, base cut, and a week before my wedding to get my hair cut again, so it would be perfect. He takes his time and ensures that everyone that comes to him hops out of his chair and knows immediately that they will be a customer for life. I cannot speak for any other barber at the shop, but If his skill and attention to detail carry over to his hiring of other barbers, there is no chance you'll leave his shop unhappy. I hope that everyone finds this review useful and the shop is successful for years and years.

    The best barbershop I've ever been to. If your in need of great service and a great haircut come here. Ask for manny Kutz and he's not there don't be afraid to go to anyone else they are all fire with kutz.

The folks over at "Evolved" Barbershop mean every single word they say and they stand by all of them, which on the night my 9 yr old boy and Ishowed up was quite a few of them. Seriously though, (and I do not have names nor would I share if I did), the dude at the front stall, as you enter, was very engaging and hilarious. From the moment we walked in his commentary was cordial, comical and engaging! I'm one of those dudes who is not overly fond of "small" talk. I am not a jerk about it and if you ask me some meaningless question, or point out some pointless fact such as, "Boy, it sure is getting chilly lately". I will respond to you, but I am not happy about it! I just like to keep the peace, ya know!? Now, to his actual haircut//"stylist". it was Fantastic/ She was Amazing! For $30, she threw some "rizz" on my boy! (At the age of 53, I have absolutely no clue if that word was just used properly or not?! Nonetheless, my kid was extremely happy about his new 'do, and I'm sure the 3rd grade "ladies" over at Whispering Oak Elementary would agree! My teenage daughter just "cringed". (I'm learning...). OK...well, now I feel would be a good time to conclude this review! Please know, and with 100% seriousness, our lady in the 2nd Booth from the front door was great! She was awesome at making my shy, always trying too hard to be cool, and quite picky, 9 year old feel great, comfortable and and with a newfound confidence. I suppose that is what a new look, expertly created, can do for you! I forgot to mention that she was quick, as well! We walked in (no appt) around 6:30pm pn a Tuesday night and there was only one other customer in the joint. During our 20 min or so, that guy finished and another guy entered and was promptly greeted and taken care of by the young man near the back. After roughly 17-20 minutes, my lil dood shook off the excess strands of cut hair and walked out of EVOLVED with a whole lot more "rizz" and you cannot place a price tag on that! My son's hair has NEVER looked better and I mean that!!! That is why we will be returning to EVOLVED every 3-4 weeks as we go forward!

    Let me start by saying I had a great experience with the young lady who cut my hair. She was…read morefriendly, personable, and professional. I later found out she was an apprentice, and honestly, she did a solid job. My haircut turned out great overall. There were a few small spots around my ears and neckline that weren't fully cleaned up, but nothing major. She had a positive attitude, and I believe she's going to be excellent with more experience. Now, unfortunately, the rest of the experience was not great. When I walked in, a gentleman in the first chair to my left greeted me and asked if I was ready for my haircut. As I was scanning the QR code, I said yes. He then directed me to a chair a few spots down. When I walked over, the young man there continued having a conversation with another barber and didn't acknowledge me. I stood there unsure of where to sit or what to do. After what felt like an eternity, I had to ask where I was supposed to go. Without saying a word, he pointed to the apprentice behind me and told me to sit with her, then continued his conversation -- even blowing another barber's beanie off with the air blower they use to clean hair off clients. While sitting in the chair, I noticed hair all over the floor, and the same two employees were goofing around and behaving unprofessionally. It didn't feel like a welcoming or respectful environment. To be clear, my one-star rating is not because of the apprentice. She did her best and treated me kindly. The issue is with the lack of professionalism, poor work ethic, and immature behavior from the other staff member. Customer service matters, and unfortunately, this experience missed the mark. I was charged $35, which I don't mind paying for a good haircut -- but I do expect professionalism along with it. Because of the overall customer service experience, I will not be returning or recommending this place.

He's not one to sit there and be quick, so if you want quick, go somewhere else. If you want someone to take their time, pride themselves in their work, and bend your ear, he's your dude. I went in the first time with an open mind. My second time, he got me damn near perfect, I say it like that, because anyone who knows about your relationship with a barber knows it's going to take at least 5 cuts to get things dialed in. I always, and I mean always only leave quality reviews on Yelp. If I am giving a review, it means I appreciate the overall experience and quality of service I'm paying for. With that said, Khalif is now my regular barber. Also, I would recommend setting a time with him up because if not, you might have to wait. Remember you can't have all three ever (easy, cheap, fast). For example, if you want it cheap and easy it's not going to be fast. If you want it fast is not going to be cheap or easy. He's a great guy and the staff are great in there too!
