May and Tina got myself and my two boys in and out with great cuts. We will definitely be back, thanks ladies!

The name says it all. Been going there for decades. Perfect every time. I hope they continue on after Lisa retires, which I think is sometime soon. read more

This is a long overdue review for Lisa's Perfect Cuts at their Sunnyvale, El Camino Real (near Mountain View) location. I almost don't want to write this review because I want to keep this place secret without long wait times! Our whole family loves coming here for cuts. You tell them what you want and they deliver! We started with my husband coming regularly - always high quality at an affordable price. I like coming here too when my schedule permits! My son also goes here ever since COVID ended (when Dad's home barbershop closed, haha!). My daughter likes to go whenever she's back in town from college. Pricing is $1 less for cash so recommend bringing cash, and tipping well! We visited recently on two occasions. Once for my son on a weekend - oh, the wait was super long for us as walk-ins! We had to wait an hour! But that's because everyone knows how good this place is. Apparently you can call ahead for an appointment so I'd recommend doing that next time you want to visit on a weekend. Then we also visited this morning on a weekday as a walk-in, and there was a less than 5 minute wait in the morning. My daughter was highly satisfied with her cut! Highly recommend! read more

Always happy with our haircuts at LPC! May is my person and she always has me leaving looking and feeling good. I appreciate the crazy of making an appointment and quick service upon arrival. Even without an appointment, the wait time is not bad. Everyone here is super friendly. read more

They cut my hair too short--all I wanted was to trim the front a bit more, but then they just cut down the whole thing. I now look like a hooligan. Difficulty communicating--Both my barber and I had to repeat ourselves multiple times for the other person to understand I was shedding hair the whole way home--it could have been worse, though Poor vibe--it's an ugly store in an ugly strip mall Relatively cheap--only $16 Relatively close--four minute drive I was served immediately--it was pretty empty read more

Six weeks later, and it looks WORSE?!! Regret going there that night! Hard to believe that particular stylist was professionally trained?!! read more

nice ladies and great haircut Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!! good price and always available pleasantly surprised to be in and out in less than an hour on a busy read more

Great women's trim and super cheap! Super friendly staff. Walked in on a Saturday morning without an appointment and did not have to wait.

Amazing haircuts at a fantastic price. They accept walk-ins generously so even if you make an appointment, there is almost always a significant wait so budget enough time for your visit. read more

I was actually surprised by how much I like the hair cut I got here! This was my first haircut after things opened up from the pandemic so I really needed a good haircut. Almost every other haircut I've had in the last few years has left my hair too short because it's naturally curly and hard to gauge the length when made wet and straight. This one was just right! I wanted just a slight trim and some layers and the hairdresser gave me just that. This was also especially impressive because my hair is also pretty fine. I called in to make an appointment on a Sunday afternoon and got one for the same evening. Really nice people. I was in and out in 15 minutes, and very low prices as compared to most other places around as well! Pretty much everything I wanted. Definitely would recommend! read more

Have been coming here for 7 years and always look forward to haircuts here! If you're ok with a disposable plastic haircut cape and bringing cash then a good match I would say. It's not fancy but to me quality level of haircut rivals the pricier barber shops I've experienced. I enjoy talking to the stylists so personally I don't mind waiting. It can get busy during peak times so making appointment probably advised (no online). read more

the person who cut my hair also blow dried it while it was dry and basically killed my hair so it has no body - it looks terrible and now I have to wait for it to grow out - I realize this is due to the person who cut my hair and may not be indicative of everyone there, but I won't return to find out read more

My child asked for a specific type of hair cut and the lady did something completely different. Hair being such a big part of personal identity should be respected. Thank you for ruining my child's next 4 to 6 weeks. We did not choose this place to get the hair cut you wanted. read more

My son had his very first haircut here by Mae, she did an incredible job! I was so worried, he would scream and cry, and she knew exactly what to do. The cut turned out amazing, we are super happy, and I will definitely be back! read more

This place used to be good prior to covid but they honestly suck at giving haircuts to people with beards. Whomever cut my hair cut off half of my beard because they were working around the mask and I paid 18 dollars. You guys ruined my beard at the expense of a nice haircut. Never again. read more

If you're a walk in, save your time and go elsewhere. I called for an appointment, got told to come in and don't need one, and when I did, it took 90 minutes because people with appointments get preference. They Play favorites, as the ladies have regulars like at a dance club. Too bad, it's been a long time favorite but no longer. read more

Quick and fast. Nothing special. Cash is cheaper and no hassle cut. You get what you pay for.

Update: this place is still great. I've started getting appointments with Tina, as I wanted to change my haircut to a 2-block, and she was familiar with Korean haircut styles. She does a great job and attentive to details. She's also very friendly and will make you feel welcome. Still a great value, even though prices have gone up a smidge since I first started coming here. read more

ignore the last review about only use if you really need to, people do jump the queue but normally it's because they have an appointment and yes there can be Long waits but hey Lisa's is a popular hairdressers . imagine giving a great hairdressers a crappy review because you had to wait jog on Karen read more

Use this place if you really can't afford anything else. Wait times can be higher than one hour at times, and people don't respect the line - and the staff doesn't care. I use to like this place, had my haircut there for 20 years, but it is not worth it. Also, the quality of the haircut varies a lot depending on who you get. read more

I come here for my admittedly very straightforward haircuts. The haircut itself is usually very fast, about 10 minutes, and it's only $12 if you pay with cash! You can't beat the price. Except for the place a block away, they charge $11. But they are less convenient, so I guess I am paying an extra dollar to have to drive less. And my car does get really low MPG, so maybe it's breaking even. Anyway, my haircut is extremely easy, so I can't comment on the real skill that the stylists here have as anybody can cut my hair, probably even me with a mirror if I was motivated enough to do it. The one thing I'll say, I am not fond of the huge line they seem to constantly have. So be a pro like me and call ahead, they will tell you when to come in and you can save some time waiting. I'm docking 2 stars because 1, cleanliness is not next to godliness here. The floor is frequently covered with hair, rarely swept, and I see some of the scissors and combs are not being kept in disinfectant. But I guess you have to save costs somewhere. The second star is docked because they charge $1 to use a credit card. This is against Visa's rules, is against California laws, and is generally something I find extremely shady. The fee for an $11 haircut is nowhere near a dollar, so they are basically making you pay for the privilege of using plastic. Overall, I like the convenience here, it's not so clean, and they charge shady fees. But what can I say? I'll be back because it's close and cheap. read more

Decent spot and value priced for kids cut relative to the zip code. Mai was attentive, thorough, and open to feedback during the appt.

I found my new barber!!!! Great service and cheap! $9 credit card or $8 cash They are open late too until 9PM! Great service too! Workers are so happy here and make conversation with you. Its worth the drive to get here!!! read more

I am coming here from last 10 year today first time I feel like I should write review for them Always Tina and mai take care people with smile and do good job read more

This business is one of my favorites in Sunnyvale. I love this place so much, even after my move, I drive twenty-five minutes for a cut from Lisa's. My stylist is amazing- she's attentive and cuts hair with precision. I always walk out feeling amazing. I've sat in different chairs, too. Still walked out feeling great. Lisa's Perfect Cuts lives up to its name- perfect cut, all the time. read more

Nice hairdressers. Unbeatable prices. Worth the drive. I like Lisa, the owner, and Tina. Both highly recommended.

Forrest Gump's mama always said, "Life is like a box of chocolates. You never know what you're gonna get." Lisa's Perfect Cuts is also like a box of chocolates. Why? Well first, when I come here I have no clue how busy it's going to be. I come 0.5 to 1 hour before closing time, and sometimes the place is quiet except for two customers being served, and other times there are five dudes waiting in line. And speaking of lines, there isn't a real one. No sign in sheet. You have to pay attention to which people were there before you, and which came after you. "Anson, you da fool," you might say. "Lisa's can't control whether five dudes decide to show up on a synchronized schedule." Fair enough. BUT! most of all, what I never know is how my hair will turn out. I get it cut pretty short - leave 1 inch on the top, fade going down, and #1.5 clippers on the sides. Sometimes my haircut ends up looking too square, sometimes it's too round, and occasionally it's just right. Like Goldilocks. (Get it? "Locks"? Har har) It also often ends up looking uneven between one side and the other because I have a stupid cowlick in the back. I usually have to point this out for them to fix it. How is it that I notice, but they don't? Who's the professional haircutter here? In the end, I always leave with at least a passable haircut. Sometimes it still looks a bit funny, but it's forgotten by the next day. At least the price is only $8 by cash or $9 by credit card - pretty hard to beat! read more

It's a standard place for guys needing the military cut or something like it. As far as getting a fancy cut that requires more detail, be careful who you chose. When I've come in, it's mostly for them to even out the back (since I tend to cut my hair). But when Lisa is here, I always choose her. She's really good and listens to exactly what I want. She's the namesake of this salon but no longer owns it. So she's not always here. When I or my husband need a cut or a trim, we ask for her. read more

Nice cool fast cuts All stylists there are good at hair cut It will be busy on weekends and holidays, so if you can avoid that time , you will be on your way in no time read more

Called before going. Asked them how much it would take to wash and simply dry my very short hair, she said $10 over phone. After I get there, I asked how much it would take to do a good blow dry- where they use the roller brush etc to style the hair a little while drying it and she said $15 (7for wash, 8for blow-dry) So I say let's just do a regular wash and dry. So they do that, wash my hair and simple dry it so that it's not fully dey but not dripping water too. Guess what, after it's done she charges me $15 saying that's what she said earlier. I remind that over the phone I was told $10, she says ' I didn't say it, it was someone else!' Very politely I ask her 'would you just wash someone's hair for $7 and have them walk out wit their hair dripping? I only asked for a regular dry, why should I pay $8 for it?'' and she very agitatedly replies 'yes, when you go to restaurant you pay for food, water, everything separately... etc etc.' I was done. Made the payment and kept my peace. It would be nice if they could be more upfront about pricing and spoke in a less dominating manner. Also, the floors were full of hair, not swept after a few cuts and the hairwash sink was another sight! Of course, Never coming back to this branch! read more

This is JJ's first haircut here after getting one in Okinawa. After his school today: he asked to find a Japanese haircut place in San Jose. We drove to a few stores and yelped them but we did not find one that we liked so we drove towards Sunnyvale and stopped by Lisa's and asked the attendant if they can offer JJ a Japanese boys haircut. The lady said yes and asked us to select a style from one of their hair style book. We picked a close enough style and showed it to the hairdresser who said the style will not work for JJ because he has soft hair. So I said just make it as close as it looked in the magazine but keep the top longer. I think she did a good job. 2 photos are posted here on Yelp. read more

I come here every 2 weeks like clock work. Linh is Amazing Great customer service. Always friendly. Most customers are regulars and have their preferred stylist, so please be patient. Great haircut at Great prices. Tips are Not Demanded as I've read on a previous comment, but my usual tip is $5. Then again im a guy so i get the simple $12 haircut. Thanks again Linh read more

A former Supercuts customer who one day left due to a long wait there, and right across the other side of the parking lot was Lisa' Perfect cuts. That was almost 10 years ago! I haven't been back to Supercuts since (I'm surprised they are still in business). I get the same cut for one low price of 8$ (9 if you use credit/ATM Card) plus several dollars tip (they deserve it). A couple of stylists have gone the extra step for me, like washing my hair when I had the super glue hair gel. Great cuts, excellent customer service, all staff have been very friendly, open til 9pm on weekdays, and low cost.....it doesn't get any better than this. They have tons of regulars there and they do take reservations for certain hairstylists. I try to go during 9am- to 4pm on weekdays if possible, when there's less folks. I can't speak for the women, as they may have more styling needs, however, I have noticed regulars who go there for coloring and permanents. If your a man who needs a fancy Barber shop "Artistic" hairstyle, this isn't the place for you. There are plenty of other places for that, and you will pay extra for artistic flair. Lisa's Perfect Cuts is a place where you get a simple cut for a low price. I call it the "In and Out Burger" of hair cutting at it's best. Update 12/10/2013. The basic haircut price is now 10 bucks, but it's still very reasonable! read more

Is there a way to give 0 stars? This was the worst hair cut I have ever gotten, and I suggest you keep reading to be warned. They were very rude and impatient from the minute we walked in, specifically the guy. We came in about 5 min late for our appointment, and the lady told us we had to wait for another 15 because other customers had come in, which was totally fine. We went to our car and came back exactly 15 min later, and this man was nearly yelling at me (17) and my 12 year old brother saying that he didn't know we were in our car so now he has other customers because we didn't tell him, so he wouldn't cut our hair. The lady had to calm him down and say no it's okay. What great hospitality... towards children... Not to mention the crap job of a cut! I asked for 3 inches cut... he cut at least 5 or 6. I tried politely saying "oh this is shorter than I expected," and "this is getting pretty short," but he clearly didn't care. I went home sobbing to my mom over how uneven and SHORT it was! My hair was supposed to end up 2-3 inches below my shoulders... it's 1 inch above. I had beautiful long Indian hair. Now I just have Indian hair, and not much of it left at that. I am embarrassed to go out in public because it is genuinely ugly. I hate it so much. I am NEVER coming back, and I suggest you don't either! Lisa's perfect cuts?...HAH far from it! read more

WARNING WARNING WARNING...... PLEASE DON'T ALLOW "LIHN" TO CUT YOUR HAIR. Very very bad customer service. I have had long hair my whole life. My husband really like long hair. My hair was almost touching to my lower west. LIHN, so called hairstylist. I asked her for long layered hair cut. She showed me about 4 inches of hair to cut. I said ok. Still she chopped more than 10 inches of my hair. She was very fast. Being a first time customer she didn't even asked enough questions. Seems she just not wanted to follow my instructions. This is clear cut cheating. If you are visiting this place for hair cut, MAKE SURE YOU ARE NOT GOING TO ALLOW LIHN TO CUT YOUR HAIR. I wish I could give negative star. Very very unsatisfied with the service. The service that I have received is pathetic. LIHN(who attended me) DID NOT FOLLOWED MY INSTRUCTIONS AND GAVE ME TERRIBLE HAIR CUT. After giving this horrible haircut, she did not even took my apron off and she just walked to register and waiting for payment. Never felt so down getting a haircut. I have never cried because of haircut but LIHN changed that for me. I think this is awful service. I hope this doesn't happen to anyone else who goes to Lisa's perfect cut. read more

Today was my first time coming here. Tina helped me out and she was super nice, she was so friendly I felt as if I already knew her. She did exactly what I asked for my hair cut which is cut only half and inch. I'm very picky with trying new places because a lot of times they end up cutting my hair more than I asked. Price was ONLY $12 which is amazing! A lot of places I called wanted to charge me over $25 just to cut the ends of my hair. Will definitely be coming back. read more

My whole family have been coming here for haircut for over 10 years. However, I see the quality declined a lot over time. Perhaps because Lisa doesn't come much anymore. There's a unusually unfriendly and frowning female stylist working in the back whom I always tried to avoid. However she was available when it was me or my son's turn. I took it since I don't want her to give my son a hard time. She started combing my hair with no grace. I have long hair and some tangles, she continued to yank and my head literally yielded 1/2 foot so I could avoid some pain. I responded with 'ouch' and she was even more mad, complaining that my hair was too dry. Gosh, ok, my hair might be dry but I still want them. It was supposed to be a very straightforward cut. At the end, my left side was at least an inch longer than my right side. No, I'm not going back there. read more

I got a cut and didn't notice how terribly asymmetric it was until I got home and washed my hair. The right side was over an inch longer than the left. The back had a v-shape cut out of the center. I came back an hour later for a fix, and they told me it was perfect if only I would blow dry it. They offered to do some cleanup, but they insisted I was mistaken and wouldn't make any cuts other than the ones I explicitly asked for. I needed to tell them exactly where to cut. I couldn't possibly do that as a non-professional. And I had no clear vision of the back. If they wanted to do it correctly, they would require me to pay for another haircut with blow dry. Which I did. I paid a second time, since it would be embarrassing to leave with such a bad hair cut. I was upset and impatient and left after I was told it was fixed. I came home and found the v shape cut in the back is gone, but the hair is still about quarter an inch longer on the right side. read more

Very nice , not expensive , everyone is so friendly especially Tina the lady that always cuts to me I'm a long time customer for more than 10 years with no complains . Big LIKE read more

I've taken my 3 year old son here twice and both times he got the same lady. I was hoping he wouldn't get her again because she's very unfriendly and rude. She'd get irritated if my son moved just a little and doesn't even try to make him feel comfortable. The second time that we came, i told her to fade his hair a little higher and she started talking to herself all irritated in Vietnamese. Rude! When I paid, she took off so rude and quick after as if I wasnt gonna tip her. Made my son bring her the tip and she glanced all bitchy, said thanks then turned back around. I'm still gonna go back but never again will I let her cut my son's hair. The other ladies seem to be very nice and kid friendly. Giving two stars because she does an ok job on hair. Btw, her stand is the one at the far end, by the sink....boy cut blonde hair lady. Avoid her! read more
