Went to go see Grace for a cut and as always, very nice lady who does a great job at cutting my hair that's why I've been seeing her for well over a decade. If you don't know, she has moved to a new location and I have updated some of the photos and the address. To be honest for the service that you get and her PRICE it's really unbeatable in the south Bay For real a double shampoo plus a cut for 30 is just way cheaper than the box store haircuts and the barbershops that are at least $15-$20 more She gets you in and out and I'm always happy She may not answer the phone all that friendly but that's because English is her second language but once you get to know her, she is a super nice lady read more

See all

She has been servicing South Bay for long time. I like her new place. Amazing haircut and person

Great service, excellent quality and friendly clean surroundings. Would recommend Grace's to all my friends and relatives.

Oh how I've missed this place. I've been coming to Grace for a long time, and I had to stop when covid first hit. After getting my haircut from begrudging family, it was so good to finally come bad. It was a world of difference. My hair looked much sharper and cleaner and you can just tell the difference when a professional cuts your hair. She is the best and I have tried other places, just not the same. Glad to be back. read more

Been going here since highschool. That's about 20 years ago. She's the best and she understands how to give a guy a fade. Everyone else just messes up my hair for some reason so I've always just gone to her. I recently moved 40 miles out but I go to her occasionally when I come visit my family! read more

Run by a very nice older Korean lady whom I was happy to see made it out the other side of the pandemic (was worried her shop would close permanently). She takes her time and gives you a pre and post-cut rinse/shampoo. No other stylists so you never feel claustrophobic or worry about possible germ transmission in her shop and she still wears a mask when cutting your hair. Support small businesses! read more

Grace is a really nice person, who provides a good men's haircut. Price was fair. Will be back.

I've been getting my haircuts from grace since I was a baby, she does an amazing job each time. I cut my own hair (as a result of quarantine), I went to her as soon as her shop opened up - she really did a great job. There is a bit of a language barrier, as she is more comfortable using Korean, but don't let this deter you from getting a haircut from grace (you'd be missing out on a solid one). She's been cutting hair in the same location for at least 2 decades, does a great job every time, its also important to show support to these local businesses. . read more

I've been going for the past few years and I highly recommend checking it out. Grace is a kind and diligent hairdresser who is an expert when it comes hair care. Her studio is calm and clean, playing classical music and filled with orchids. Thanks, Grace, for the best haircuts I've ever had! read more

I've been getting my cut here since the 90's Super nice lady Now I'm bringing my son for his cut. Customer for life

If you're looking for a fantastic haircut done by a sweet Korean lady, you've come to the right place. I've been coming to Grace since high school (she has been cutting men's hair in the South Bay for the last 20 years) and she always delivers what I ask for, and will provide recommendations for your hair if you ask for them! Usually little to no wait so no need for reservations, just walk and in and she will take care of the rest. A professional, 20 minute haircut that's consistent every time five stars from me! read more

Grace is the best. I have visited many places when I first arrived to So Cal years ago and this is the place to go. You will not be disappointed. Very kind lady, knows how to cut hair, and keeps her prices very low to the standard market. Looks like prices from 10-15 years ago. With her knowledge and experience her prices should be much higher. I have recommended a handful of my friends here and all have said she is the best. Every Yelp rating she has speaks for her ability and costs. Wonderful individual and clean place, and love to support the mom and pop establishments! read more

I cannot say enough good things about Grace's Hair Design. Before I met Grace, I always dreaded getting a haircut. I would get haircuts a week to two weeks in advance of an event just to make sure that my haircuts would be sufficiently grown out. After going to Grace's all that has changed. I get a great haircut every single time. For reference, I get my hair cut short and textured with only scissors. I put wax in my hair and style my hair "messily." Grace does an amazing job for this. Lastly, Grace's is a ridiculous bargain. Her haircuts cost $15. I used to get haircuts up to $50, and I would gladly pay that much if Grace charged me that amount. I usually give her $20 for my haircut. I drive all the way from Downtown LA to get a haircut from Grace. She's amazing!! P.S. She doesn't style your hair with gel/wax after the haircut. You do it yourself which I think is a absolute plus. Do you know how many times hairdressers have messed up my hair with product? Almost all. I have been given faux-hawks, porcupine spiked hair, etc. Thank you for letting me style my own hair, Grace. read more

Came inside with no one waiting. Sat in the seat immediately and Grace (I assume) finishes her japchae and comes over. First question out of her mouth is "are you Korean?" No, maybe she doesn't speak great English so she can't otherwise converse with me. Fine by me, I don't like small talk anyway. She never wet my hair or did much of a comb before starting the cut. Some 10 minutes later, some Korean clients come in who she recognizes and starts speaking in Korean to while still cutting my hair. She quickly finishes up with me and then proceeds to charge me $20. Now I'm just wondering if all her haircuts take 10 minutes or she was just more interested in gossiping with other Koreans. read more

being a regular to this place now for about 5 years, and it is great to have someone that knows exactly what i want, that gets me in and out quickly and that is very inexpensive. this isnt a high end salon that massages your scalp or has assistants helping out. this is a inexpensive efficient salon. Also, for the guys, she washes your hair before and after the cut. this means you dont walk around shedding hair clippings...very nice. read more

Grace still knows how to do my hair! She fixed an eff up I did on my own hair (heheh) P.S. She sometimes has her front door locked during business hours. She had told me she is scared of something bad happening to her since she works all by herself (I guess a friend of hers who also owns a hair salon was mugged and beaten) I had to knock a few times to be let in... read more

I've been consistently going to Grace's for the past 12 years, and she has never failed to impress me each time I get a hair cut. Not only have I been going to her for haircuts, but my brother and father go to her as well - both loving her work. Grace is a sweet Korean lady who knows how to cut asian guys' hair. Many times, I've just sat in her chair and she would start styling away. She has the azn "fade" to perfection as well as any other requests. She'll even be honest and tell you straight up that your "idea" of a haircut won't look good on you and will work with you to fabricate a styled masterpiece. Through all the ridiculous hair trends that have passed within the last 10-12 years, Grace has always been there at my side to cut my hair well. Even when I was away in college, I would make an effort to see her when I came home for the holidays. Grace's is an anomaly because the phrase "you get what you pay for" doesn't agree with her. I pay $15 plus tip each time I see her and I get the following treatments: - pre-cut wash + tea tree oil massage - an amazing haircut - post-cut wash + conditioner - free use of hair products to finish the job She's the best. read more

Pros: Competitive price ($20 for haircut only) Decent, fast haircut Cons: Time management Drama Cash only Services: 1) Blow Dry 2) Hair cut (no shampoo was included for the $20 haircut) Comments: The haircut was fast - hurried, actually. I was a walk-in customer, and she started right away. She was efficient, and there were no issues until another customer arrived. After waiting mid-haircut for several minutes as she argued with the other customer about never constraining herself to appointment times, she asked me to leave before my hair treatment was complete because yet another long-time customer had arrived. Both the customers had been elderly, and I have no issue with ceding my priority to them. But the Owner's contradictory preferential treatment of certain customers - with 2 case examples within a span of 30 minutes - is not something I look forward to when getting a haircut. Overall, she seems like a really nice lady and the haircut was good. But the absence of proper time management, the drama, and the unremarkable pricing will have me looking elsewhere for my next cut. Recommended: No (Unless you're a long-time customer) read more

Been going to Grace's for years ever since High School from 1994. I have been to other places, but always came out with a "FOB" cut...I don't have to tell her anything, I just sit down and she cuts away. I used to commute from the OC and now I commute from LA...well worth the drive in my opinion. Back in the day she didn't give a shampoo before and after the cut...but she raised her prices to $15 and guess felt bad that she did and started to give the service. She knows all of my friends who still go there and they even bring their kids now. She's the best, trust me!!! read more

I've been going to Grace's since 1996 (that should say it all). Even when I moved to San Diego from Torrance for college, I still made my trip up to see Grace every 2-3 weeks (yeah, I only trust her with my hair). All I can say is good things about Grace and the way she runs her business: polite, pleasant, always smiling, true scissor skills, patient, takes time and doesn't rush cuts - it's all good with Grace. I'm leaving now for a cut! Thanks Grace!!! read more

I have been going to Grace for over 5 years now and I can't complain. She is by far the best hairdresser I have ever had. She knows my hair and exactly what kind of cut suits me. Her prices cannot be beat. I thought maybe she would have raised her prices from when I first started going there but she hasn't. read more

Really a great hair cut! Busy on the weekends you should try to call before coming in just to double check

Excellent haircuts at an excellent price. Even though there is only one person working there (Grace), I have never had to wait for more than 10 minutes. This is my new go to haircut place in South Bay. read more

Took my kids to get haircuts. They were uneven and she wouldn't really listen to suggestions (like I wanted the back thinned out). It was not worth the $15 for kids cut done poorly! read more

I will never go here again. The owner didnt. Even wash my hair she cut it dry. I told her what I wanted and she said no it's better like this and just started chopping away. I am so unsatisfied with my cut. read more

I called after reading raving reviews on Yelp and she was rude and very difficult to talk to. I'll take my business to someone pleasant and inviting. Thanks. read more

Been going here since 1994! Grace is the best and can be trusted. Affordable and you won't be disappointed. Go check her out!

this is the only place i would ever want to go for a men's haircut. Fast, comfortable, and always reliable. And also for a really good price! She's been in the South Bay for a long time, and these are the business owners that we have to support and help as much as we can. She's super nice, and I am really picky about my haircuts.. I've gone through a lot of hair stylists (whether it be from nyc or la or korea or china .. expensive as $80 or as cheap at 15$) and, honestly, nobody can really compare to Grace. It's just one of the most comfortable experiences in the world. I kind of compare to like umami burger and in'n'out. Yeah sure umami is flashy and shit, but there's a different type of connotation and experience when you go to in'n'out. Great value and just pleasant. And that's what Grace's is. I don't know about female haircuts, but for a dude who just wants to look clean with no fuss, this is the place to go... for the rest of your life. I have! read more
