Pure expertise and grand customer service at G Circle! I've been coming to get my hair styled with Kris for the past two years now and her work is truly unparalleled. I haven't been nervous to switch up my hairdo, especially because Kris works with me through textures, layers, and shape so I get more versatility out of my haircut. She's fashioned about five unique looks across our time together from precise fringed cuts to longer bangs with tapered sides. Love that she's with me every step of the way to make sure I'm satisfied to and through. read more

Man.. this shop is fire. I walked out of the shop feeling like a new man. Feeling fresh with a fresh fade. I damn near forgot my name as I walked out the door. Blessed. When I first arrived, I was kindly greeted my @Nick and all of the other barbers around me. The vibe at the shop is like no other. The barbers are like a family. They're all so kind, funny, talented and truly masters of their craft. I guarantee if you were to book with any barber here, you'd have an amazing experience. And for those reasons.. I'm sold. Thank you G Circle! read more

Best barbershop in the Bay Area! G circle is a new barbershop but has already made it's impact within its community. Located in the heart of Oakland, it's nice to have a barber shop like this. The barbers here are super nice, professional, and give great haircuts. The haircuts they provide serve a variety of demographics and not just the new wave of haircuts. They have many different hair cut packages you can receive with affordable pricing for the styles they deliver. I went to G circle and got cut but Nick, one of the co owners of this establishment. He is very friendly, approachable, and does a great job cutting hair! I recommend him if it's your first time here, but I'm also sure any of the staff will do a great job! Bonus: The website makes setting up appointments super easy to navigate for their customers, the best that I've seen with scheduling and appointments from barbershops in my opinion, THEY ALSO HAVE AN APP that keeps all your appointments in one place. The shop is very clean and has a nice look to it that gives a new and old school barbershop aesthetic. I highly recommend G Circle if you're looking for a new permanent barbershop or visiting the Bay Area/ Oakland! read more

If you're looking for a new shop, look no further. I personally got a cut from Nick, but looking around the shop while I was waiting all the barbers look very skilled. Before the actual cut Nick made sure to ask me details about how I liked my hairstyle. Me personally I just like a clean mid or drop fade. But if you don't know what you want Nick and the other barbers are really helpful with giving consultation. Long review short the quality of the cut was great and the vibe / awesome side conversations are a plus. For parking I always try to avoid driving through Valdez st directly. I just park on 27th and walk across. read more
