I brought my husband here last Sunday , he is a super picky guy, but he walk out super satisfied, I'll definitely bring my man back here.

This location is unlike any other. The staff is amazing, the vibes are immaculate and the attention to detail from this business is the best I have ever experienced. I am not a fan of haircuts or shaves due to sensitive skin and whenever I go in I have no issues and my skin feels great. Thank you Handsome Hooligans for giving me the best experience in a barber shop read more

Both of my boys (7&9) enjoyed their first barber experience and we loved the cut! The staff were friendly and the place was clean. Highly recommend. read more

Great shop, Ray took great care of me I love my cut and will sure return again. If you're looking for a great place to go to a cut I highly recommend this place! Very clean and professional shop read more

One of the worst haircuts I've ever gotten. Guy spent an hour with the clippers (all I asked for was to clean up the sides and back with a 4) and couldn't even square my sideburns straight. Even worse with the scissors. Got home and found stray hairs, uneven cuts, no proper part like I asked for. Waste of time and money. read more

Been going see James for a couple months now and he always on point. He takes his time making sure he knows exactly how what you want. His razor work is top notch. If you're looking for a barber with crazy jedi barber skills, he's the man. He will not disappoint! read more

Hubby was looking to get a cut and his current barber raised his prices. With his long commute from Oakland to concord and raised prices, it didn't seem as worth it. Handsome hooligans was only 12 mins away! Why not?! Heard GREAT things about this shop. Finally persuade him to try them. We entered the shop and man, it was beautifully decorated. Everything was clean and symmetrical. They had a nice seating area, where I can watch my hubby get his cut. We had some technical issue with booking and our appointment time didn't show up. But they worked their magic and was still able to take him. We were help by Myles. My hubby is very particular and Myles was really patient and understanding about how my hubby wanted his cut. I was super amazed of his cleanliness and techniques. The cut came out great! Nicely faded and a beautiful combover. Pleasing on my eyes haha! The customer service of this shop was amazing. The guys are wonderful and welcoming. You don't get that at every shop. I'm definitely impressed! Thanks handsome hooligans! read more

I started coming to Handsome Hooligan's because the young gentleman, Ronnie did a house call for my friend and he was kind enough to fit me in while he was there. Shortly afterward, he told me he was renting a seat at this cool new shop in San Leandro. I live in Fremont and travel all the way here just to get my haircut, because Ronnie is just that good. I've frequented plenty of barber shops in the past, and I could not find one who had a barber that could deal with my fine hair. The fades just never looked "gradual" anywhere I went, and I've been to some pretty popular, well regarded barbers. It was love at first line up; what else can I say? I always leave there feeling like a new man. I was kind of hesitant to give Ronnie's name to my friends, cause the young man is so good, but all my friends are content with driving all the way out here to see him. One thing I've noticed not only about Ronnie, but all of Handsome Hooligans staff is the barbers take their time cutting hair, and aren't just rushing people in and out of there. There's a meticulousness for quality that I can appreciate. Another thing that separates this place from others is their pool table, and Play Station in the lounge area. If you're looking for that A1 cut, slide on through. Whether you're HANDSOME or UGLY, you're always guaranteed to leave with a fresh cut. read more

Brought my son here for the first time (he's 2). Reggie is who cut his hair and he was very patient and professional with my toddler. My son typically likes getting his hair cut, but we went somewhere new so he wasn't sure what to think. Not only was Reggie very nice, there was another barber there who gave my son cookies and chips hoping that would have him sit and get his haircut. Well, it worked! It's a clean place with a friendly, professional staff. I have already made another appointment for my son. read more

I'm going by my son's comments. Took my son here before SiP, he wanted to go somewhere cool. Hooligans was the closet that seems to know what they are doing. My son sat in Chuy's station. Listened to what my son wanted, from the sound of his description he was going all different ways. Chuy took the time to listen, give feed back, buzzed a little here, snip a little there and every step, Chuy seeked approval from my son. As soon as this Sip is over my son will definitely be going back but it'll be me first in Chuy's station. read more

LOVE this place! Today was the first time I took my two boys ages 2& 6 and we absolutely loved it! Every other barber we have gone to my kids have cried .They did an amazing job with my two year old, and they were super friendly with us.The shop is very clean and has really good prices . Both James and & E Klipz took their time and the kids liked them a lot! One of the barbers even went out his way to go to the store and buy candy for the boys. read more

Great shop. Been here once and so far so good. I was able to get in on a walk-in. Hopefully I can make this my go-to barbershop.

Update on my previous, scathing review of this business (which if you haven't read, please READ THAT FIRST): THEY. STILL. SUCK. HARD. And I'll tell you the reason they still suck... I posted something on my Instagram account, and the owner for Handsome Hooligans, by complete random chance, left a comment on my photo (...something like, "nice photo! Check out my Instagram account if you'd like). So, he's promoting his business. Nothing wrong with that. EXCEPT...he had no idea that I am a customer that they treated like shit. And they never apologized. FACT: this business is not professional I went over to his Instagram account, and left a copy of my previous review. He not only deleted it, but blocked me. Did he apologize? No, just blocked me and swept me under the rug. Like I'm nothing. FACT: this business will not apologize for their obvious failures to the customer I'm a San Leandro resident and wanted to find a San Leandro business that I could frequent regularly...sadly, this business doesn't care about San Leandro. I did find a great place elsewhere, that I visit every 2 weeks for my haircut. FACT: this business doesn't care about San Leandro Handsome Hooligans has missed out on 20+ appointments that I've made elsewhere. Not to mention, the other people that I've recommended NOT to go here. Not to mention the other people that have left similar reviews to mine right here on yelp. Not to mention other yelpers who have messaged me telling me they read my previous review and THANKED me for saving them time and money. Not to mention the other people that have had negative experiences here but don't yelp about it. People always look at my cut and ask me where I got it, all the time, and I always happily tell them about my spot...which is obviously not handsome hooligans. To the owner: you need to learn how to do right by customers/neighbors you've so clearly wronged. To those thinking about getting a cut here: don't. FACT: there are better barber shops in the San Leandro/Castro Valley/Hayward area...id love to help you, free of charge and free of bullshit, I'll recommend you some. read more

Love this place the experience I had is amazing the Barbers all have a unique style all of there own they are true masters of the shave and haircut the owner greeted me with a warm handshake and very nice welcome as soon as I stepped in the door real classy place full of distinguished gentlemen I would recommend this establishment to everybody not only for the experience but the awesome haircuts they provide, TOP SHELF. read more

I've been here twice to bring my brother and didn't book an appointment, they are very welcoming and do a great service, they take their time with their customers and make sure they like what they got! read more

I think they provide great haircuts however - they are NOT Covid safe. During these times, that's a huge no for me. The barbers don't wear masks. If anything the barbers should have one and the clients can take it off if their cut needs them to take it off. My family felt uncomfortable there and it's disappointing because like I said - they give good haircuts and everyone is friendly. I just wish that during these times that they would be safer for the sake of their clients. read more

Came in today to check this place out. The shop was very clean and pretty cool. I found this place on here searching for a more classic barber shop and that's exactly what it is. Regee hooked me up with a taper fade with scissors on top and he killed it. He took his time and made sure everything was nice and crispy(instead of just getting rushed through). He also hit me with the razor line up and it came out legit. I would recommend this place to anyone from young to old from a modern cut to classic they can do it all. They also got a pretty good selection of pomades. What's also pretty cool is that you can shoot pool while you wait. Do yourself a favor and give this new business a shot. read more

Yesterday James and Reggie gave my husband the works (haircut, razor shave) after 28 days in the hospital. This place is awesome. Master crafters at what they do. They went above and beyond to make sure he was comfortable, including helping him out to the car in his wheelchair. The entire staff is awesome. Nice group of young men. Easy parking and on time appointment. You couldn't ask for more in a business. You simply must check them out. read more

I definitely recommend handsome hooligans to any person who is looking for quality fades and excellent customer service! I work just down the street and at first I just needed a quick haircut after work and thought I always see this place I might aswell give it a shot, That was about a year and some months ago! I wish I could recommend just one barber but you are in safe hands who ever you decide to cut your hair. read more

Had an appointment for my son with Reggie and he was on time and the shop was clean. Great decor nice atmosphere and very professional. He engaged my son and asked him his opinion not just mine about how his hair was cut. Great respect and we will be back! Thank you. read more

My neighborhood barber was closed so did a quick Google & checked out the place. As I'm walking in I met James who's outside taking a smoke break. "Need a haircut?" he says Yep & in I went. Clean outside, cool atmosphere inside. I just needed my haircut I do myself cleaned up & faded in the back (hardest to do yourself). James says just call him Chiu & we BS'd about camping & his rafting on the American River. Not only was "the Chiu" a cool dude he did my cut how I asked & didn't F it up & not follow simple instructions that other barbers mess up a lot of times I asked how much are haircuts? Chiu says no worries no charge...he just cleaned it up. First time cool hospitality. I would've charged everything on my CC + tip. I gave the cash I had as a tip ($10) & was good to go. Thanks bro great service! I'll be back read more

Reggie was off the hook! These guys are the best! Thank for a really good haircut and the car talk

I've been coming to these guys since before they had their own shop. Great haircuts from every single barber. I read some of these reviews and people do not understand that it is NOT like 15 years ago when you could just walk in and get a haircut that same day. I've been getting my haircut from the same barber(RONNIE) for 5 years now and I still have to make my appt every Friday. They have multiple clients that have weekly appts, that's just saying a new customer would need to come in and get one of the barbers number and text them and set up an appt a COUPLE days before. They are more than willing to cut anybody's hair but just be patient. If they don't reply to your text, text them again, it doesn't bother them. Half the time their busy with a haircut and can't get back to you right away. SIDE NOTE: ANY BARBERSHOP THAT IS NOT BUSY, THURSDAY-SATURDAY IS NOT A GOOD SHOP read more

The shop has a super chill atmosphere and no B S or attitude and plenty of funny conversation. I came in on a Friday afternoon without an appointment and Miles was able to see me right away and proceeded to give me a great fade with a hard part, which is one of the more difficult cuts for barber. I'm pleased with the do and loved that cold modelo they offered me as well. I'll be back! Thank You Miles read more

I have been going to James Chu for over a year now. I am super picky, particular, and obsessive about my haircuts. Before James, I used to self correct my haircuts and often return to the stylist for minor to major adjustments. That stopped (for the most part) with James . When I moved to Bay Area , I had a frustrating time finding a Barber that would understand my hair and provide a reliable service. The men's haircut is wonderful and the staff makes you feel like part of a family. Since I started going to Handsome Hooligans , James has not only provided the consistent quality that I need, but has also completely transformed my expectations for a haircut.Out of my countless appointments with the Barber , not once have I left feeling disappointed with the service. The price for my haircut is very reasonable a step above an ordinary stylist but the reliability and quality is well worth it.You can make your appointment through the website and everything was perfect. I got reminders about my appointment through texts, the service was impeccable, and the haircut was modern. read more

Stopped by randomly, my husband needed a cut. We have driven by the shop several times , have always wanted to check out these guys. Definitely happy we actually did! Alfredo did a great job , my husband will definitely be a fluent client . Shop is very clean, lots of style and definitely that "Barber Shop" feel in the air that is a real treat, even for us wives lol Highly recommend this shop , barbers got skills and it was great hangin out and talkin with all of them. Besides a haircut, ya might lose a few lbs in that chair also, because they had me laughin the entire time read more

First time going today and it was really nice, chill environment, music, and good service. "Chu" cut my hair today and it was as expected, definitely a regular now. read more

James definitely hooked me up with one the best cuts I've had in years. And it's only 5 minutes away from where I live. Don't have to drive up to Oakland for a more expensive, Okay haircut. Not to mention they share the space with a dope T-Shirt company as well. It's a hidden gem I highly recommend! read more

Best barbershop in San Leandro hands down. Ive been getting my hair cut by Elon who might be the most thorough barber out here with the most bars. He takes his time and doesn't take any shortcuts. His price is only 25 but he's worth the 40+ EASILY! The shop is chill with a pool table and the owner is dope like other barbers! DONT SLEEP! read more

Well I wanted to love this place. Love the name. Love the vibe. Seems cool. Well I TRIED to go. I stopped in one day and they said they were closing but I can call to make an appointment. I called three times. No one answers. I then wrote and email asking the hours which are different on their website then they told me. No reply. So I drove by again near closing - yeah, the lights were on. As I parked my car, they turned off the light, brought in the outside signage and left in a flash. I really can't blame them for leaving when they close - but can you pick up the phone or answer an email? Doesnt' seem they need my business. read more

Mando bowls at manor and when I asked about his shop he told me to come by. Great haircut even tho I dont alot of hair, he took care of me. Great location and a pool table while you wait... read more

So I've been going to this place for about a year and a half. Once every two week. And the way these guys are with each other is crazy funny. A lot of love in this shop. And I love getting to see it when I come by. Personally I get the same cut all the time and my barber, Elon is the real deal. Nothing different in the way I look. Just the way I like it every time. And the rest of the crew are just as great, you would need to get a session from them it for yourself to know what I'm talking about! read more

I've been looking for a regular barber for... too long to say. Some too busy, too pricey, too far away... James and company have won me over, this place has it all -- if you have to wait, play some pool... almost afraid to share this, hope it does not get too busy! read more

This place is great, James hooked me up with a great cut for my wedding. The shop atmosphere is relaxed, they have a pool table in the other room and the chairs are comfy. All the guys there are friendly and professional. James cut my hair exactly how i wanted it and im definitely going to make this my regular place. Plus, setting up the appointment online is easy. Definitely a great place to get a clean cut. I would recommend this place to anyone. read more

The barbers are "o.k." but they can't keep a appointment. every appointment I've ever made with these guys have been either canceled because somebody went home or I've had to wait 45-60 minute after my appointment time because they're running late. So if you have all day to wait for a cut then it isnt so bad other wise dont waste your time. Also they only take card "Sometimes" read more

i was in need of a haircut and came across this barber shop. I was greeted promptly and sat down for a haircut. The barber I had was amazing and had great conversation, mentioning local eats to go to. Great atmosphere overall. 5/5 will be coming back! read more
