No joke: 100/100 Kevin is as good as it gets. Best barber I have ever gone to in my life. I drive 30 miles each way to have Kevin cut my hair. He is extremely detailed, professional and knows how to cut hair. I couldn't recommend Kevin enough. He understands how hair grows, how to cut different types of hair and how to give your hair the right shape for your head and face. read more

Can y'all stop coming to him? Sometimes I have to wait up to 2 hours to get a haircut from him. Guy is legit and everyone knows it that's why it's always packed. I wish he would have an Appointment system instead, but it is what it is. Great barber read more

Just moved back into the area after spending 9 years abroad. Kevin did a great job with my cut, and it was quick. Because he does such a good job, the shop was filled with people when I was arrived, and a room full of people waiting after I was done. Will be back for sure! read more

Looks like yelp took down my review so I'm writing this again. I called 6 days in advance to make an appointment after reading about the long waits online. It wasn't until after he cut my hair that he told me he would be charging me extra because I had made an appointment (originally $18 to $25). Would have been nice to tell me over the phone, honestly felt taken advantaged of in this situation since it was my first time here. Not only that, my hair was cut way too short so it'll be awhile for me to grow it back the way I wanted it to be. read more

Did a great job at a fair price. Have gone twice so far. My hair salon hadn't reopened so I decided yo try a barbershop out of sheer desperation. I might even prefer Kevin to my stylist! So glad to get my crazy covid hair off my head! read more

Kevin cuts hair with patience and precision. I'm glad that this local business has survived the effects of the pandemic closures. Come on down and get a fantastic cut and support local businesses! read more

He is a great stylist, and suggested what would look good. Also was able to tell where a barber didn't cut my hair correctly from my last cut. Definitely switching over to him. $25 for this stylist is a great find. read more

Best hair stylist! Good with all types of hair, Very friendly and very respectful! Will definitely recommend! read more

I wanted to check this place out since I was looking for a place to get my haircut and the review for this place was good. People say he takes his time and take care of you so I wanted to see how well Kevin's do haircut. It was around past 12 when I came in to get a haircut and there was 4 customers ahead of me waiting to get a haircut also. It took a little while until it was my turn to get a hair cut. My first expression on the 1st customer that he was taking care of was he really takes his time and making sure it's done correctly. It was my turn to get a haircut and I told him that I wanted to get a fade (0 on the side and 2 on the top). Boy, what can I say? He impressed me and took care of me. He really did a very nice job and on my haircut and even him was impressed by saying nice haircut. I told him, "Thank You, I love it". Only me that he said that to and even the other people who was waiting turn around and looked at me. For the service that he did was worth about $25 at some place but not here. Good service deserves good tips. I would definitely comeback here and I highly recommended it. Check it out! read more

My first time came to this barber shop I really like how Kevin did my fade the way of the style I wanted. I guess I have to come back to this place again. read more

I guess you can blame me a bit for being a little vague at times about what kind of haircut I want, but I've had one too many experiences with this guy where the results were poor and lacked sense. I would have never bothered reviewing Kevin's Cuts until my most recent experience when I simply asked him to square the back. When he began trimming it hurt more than usual. I'm not one to complain unless something is REALLY painful, so I toughed it out like it was normal. It stung but I kept telling myself that it would pass; I had never experienced a burn quite like this from a haircut before. I left the salon and hoped the sting would eventually fade. Long story short, he gave me a pretty harsh razor burn on the back of my neck where he straightened the hair line; by harsh I mean theres a bright red line on my skin along the back hairline about a 1/2 cm thick that was still painful the next day. This has NEVER happened to me so I am not a case of sensitive skin. Some might blame me for not stopping him and telling him about the discomfort, but what guy getting a haircut is going to complain unless the pain is REALLY bad? Shouldn't this be completely avoided in the first place? Take a look at the picture and judge for yourself (assuming they don't take it down). My fault or should this just never happen at a professional salon? I will never trust him again. read more

I drive from castro valley - whats that say Kevin is the man! Chill and knows his proffesion read more

Price is inexpensive ($11 compared to $15-$20 in Berkeley) for a basic haircut and the barber does a better job than the 4 different places I tried near Cal and the other 3 I've been to on east 14th in San Leandro. Found this place a few years ago after I moved here from Berkeley. It's a simple store with three barber chairs but I've only ever seen the one guy, Kevin cutting hair. The cobination of cheap prices, good haircuts (he is meticulous in his hair cutting and attention to detail) and short wait times keeps me coming back. read more

Kevin is the best! He takes his time and actually gives you the haircut that you asked for. He's the only barber so be patient as there's usually a line but well worth the wait. read more

5/5 Yup, I'd get my hair cut here again and again Now it's kind of hard to review a barber, but I'll give it a go. I went here several times when I lived in San Leandro with my GF. And almost every time I went to him before a job interview, I got an offer from the job that I was applying to! Not only does he have that lucky factor, but his hair cuts are pretty on point. I usually get the usual, and even though I don't show up for months, he still remembers me and cuts it just like I had it the time before. The price is right at $11 for a male haircut and I usually tip about $3-$4 depending on how Im feeling. I'd recommend this place to get hair cuts again and again! TIP: If you go, try to go during an off time. Because it's just Kevin cutting hair, the line can get a little crazy during the rush hours of the day :-) read more

I am gonna be honest. Cool guy and quick cut in your friendly neighborhood. BUT, the wait time is insane and he needs to hire a a second guy to help!! read more

Kevin seems compassionate authentic and passionate. He's extremely busy so please make an appointment.

called and got right in, 1 person already in the chair so only a 30 min wait read the paper watch some sports on the TV and got my mop of a head cleaned up all for $20, inclusive of tip. high quality and fast, and the right price, what more does a guy need? As I passed up a shop in the Mission district charging $50 for a cut. No way! read more

Kevin has great customer service and does a great job with my hair. The place is clean, cozy and quiet. Definitely will be coming back.

3rd time coming in here and the haircut is always good. You tell him to give you a mid fade and he will give you a mid fade cut. Only bad thing is the long lines, they can be 2 hours long. read more

I don't really rate as many businesses as I should, and this might even be might first review, but Kevin deserves it. Now it's probably not for everyone, but for a guy with a simple haircut (parted swoopy thing...hell, I'm not a professional stylist) - Kevin can manage my cut for a reasonable price. Sometimes I even feel guilty for being charged so little that I tip him a bunch. Team Kevin 4 eva read more

It's sandwich between a market and a nail salon. After reading all the 5 stars review I had to check it out. I was there probably a month ago. Kevin is a one man shop and it's no frills type of place, which is great for guys. My hair cut was okay, but not great. He's not as diligent as you would expect from other hair stylist. He's probably good at giving short cuts with the clipper, but his shear skills are less than desirable. read more

I'm not even exaggerating, every time I get a cut from Kevin I walk out of the shop with a smile on my face. A good haircut is one thing but we all also know that a good conversation and connection you make with the barber makes you want to come back. Highly recommend go to go Kevin for your cuts. read more

Kevin did a great job on my sons hair! He is fast and really good! I will be bringing all my boys here from now on!!

Took my little brother here he loved it! You tell him exactly how you want your haircut and you get it .. the only downside is the waiting ! If you're in a rush to get your haircut this place isn't for you. Be prepared to wait 1.5 or 2 hours depending on the waiting line . Coming here again for my brothers haircuts. read more

Long wait on weekends...but Kevin is great! New to area and needed a new barber and found this place...affordable and quality hair cut.

It's crazy how hard it is to get a proper fade at hair salons around here. This is one of the simplest haircuts, for crying out loud. Anyway, Kevin does an excellent job. He takes his time, doesn't rush like at other hair salons. This is a cash-only place, but the mini market next door has an ATM. read more

Never disappointed with my haircut. He can be busy at times. Inexpensive. Lots of reading material.

Never been here before, a friend recommended me. I asked for a bald fade with a little off the top, and it came out fantastic! Kevin's great! $12 cut, but don't forget to tip my man Kevin for that really clean cut he just gave you! Not to mention he does it very quickly, and blends fades really well. Thanks again Kevin! read more

Been going to Kevin for a couple months now and always left feeling awesome. Its my new go-to place. Only walk-ins, no appointments so I recommend that you call first to see what the queue situation is (I've waited over an hour before). While waiting, I wish that Kevin would speed up the hair cutting process but also realize that I wouldn't want him to speed up my haircut . He takes his time and is super detailed on every client! read more

Quick fast and in a hurry is me.He does a good job and very clean. Thanks Kevin I will be back to get a quick cut next time I need one. Good prices and service. Look good ,feel better. read more

My husband has gone to Kevin's Cut 4 times already and he really likes this place. Haircuts are $12 and Kevin does a great job. Kevin also cuts women's hair. I tried him once about two weeks ago and I am completely satisfied. I am very low maintenance, but am always hesitant because all the salons I have gone to end up cutting more than I tell them. Kevin listened to what I wanted. read more

I actually was looking for a haircut for the new year, and I knew my original barber was booked. I googled for a spot near my house, and this is a three minute walk away. I walked in, and there was only one guy getting his haircut finished, and another waiting. It took me about 30 minutes to be cut. I don't like waiting, so I usually make an appointment with my other barber. However, when my time came, I showed Kevin a picture of how I wanted my sides to look, and he did just that. I'm very picky about how I get my sides done, because a lot of people make the top portion too short, when I like it tapered a certain way. Kevin was impeccable, and took his time to fix every detail. Not only that, but it was only $16 for the haircut, compared to the $30 I was paying my other barber before. Definitely coming back here again. read more

I kinda didn't know what I want but he still gave me that good fade... I respect that.. first time going there.

This is my third cut by Kevin. My first two cuts were perfect. Faded exactly the way I wanted with the perfect gradient. This time around, he appeared rushed and left large patches of hair. The haircut was uneven and there was no fade. I left very disappointed; last time I'll be coming to Kevin for a haircut. read more

Been going to Kevin's for the past two years, about once every four weeks. He is quick, efficient and does a solid consistent job every time. A men's cut cost 12 plus tip. No appointments, just walk ins so be prepared to wait especially if you arrive after 2pm. Usually weekday mornings have the shortest wait. Cash only and I believe he is closed on Mondays. read more

Love, love, LOVE Kevin!!! I have unruly curly/wavy hair and I've gone to so many pricey hair salons around SL (like Amparo's) and I've never been satisfied with the results. I had always thought that a more expensive haircut warranted better results, but Kevin has proven me wrong! I came in with my hair wavy and dry, and told Kevin exactly what I wanted: trim off dry split-ends, but keep it layered so it's not some huge mass of wavy hair, but that it will actually have body and bounce. Kevin delivered. His prices are amazing! Haircuts start at $11, and increase with length of hair. I had my hair to the small of my back and ended up with hair going a little past my shoulders. I distinctly remember paying about $55 (not including tip) at Amparo's, but Kevin only charged me $13!!! Don't pass this guy up! He is amazing! He's a really nice and funny guy whose been working with hair for over 20 years! You will NOT be disappointed! read more
