Good haircut for great price. Will likely be coming back for a haircut.

I've been coming here since my grandmother would walk me in as a little boy decades ago. The haircuts have always been perfect. I've had buzz cuts, trimmings of long/curly hair, and complicated cuts. Never disappointed. Vicky and the team are such warm and inviting barbers. I've tried the chain barbershops and other small barbershops when out of the area, none have compared to this gem! read more

A small, no frills hair salon with great prices. My boyfriend showed me this place - walked in and immediately got a quick trim. Didn't ask for anything fancy but was great to feel cleaned up after all the salons closed during pandemic. read more

Great service and very nice staff. The fade was done right, and the post haircut neck massage was the icing on the cake!

What a silly little neighborhood $8 haircut joint. Operated and probably owned by a Vietnamese woman, you'll find a mob of older Vietnamese women cutting hair for cheap and doing nails...for cheap. Clearly I'm not implying I've tried to latter, but one can only assume it's a nice price. Assuming. $8 Mens/Boys Haircuts: - This set up and quality reminds me of Happy Barber and other $8 options out there (also, happens to be run by the Vietnamese). With this standard cut, the lady will not hesitate to use scissors when necessary, which is nice since other places will charge more for that (I know, it doesn't really make much sense). DO NOT expect them to give an awesome $15 job, but if you have a simple haircut and hate spending more than $10, this is your spot if you're in the area. if you can get passed the very thick accent and somewhat not-exactly-what-I-wanted result but-still-content, then tada--look no further. Pros: - NO LONG LINE (almost) EVER. Every time except my previous experience, I never had to wait. And even with the one-person queue, it was only like 10 minutes. I came mid afternoon on Saturday too! This alone is a selling point for me. - They're nice. Not threatening and dont seem to pass along (knowing) gossip about dramatic customers--but what do I know, I dont speak Vietnamese. Hah, they probably are saying things, huh. - They do men and women hair. Not that I would expect to see women here, but I do see an occasional old lady who's getting her stuff done. Oh, highlights. Yes. Cons: - Cash only. If you want to use credit card, they will charge $1 more. Hmm. Cash for me it is! Considering I live way close to here, this has been my go-to option for my once-a-month haircut. Why, seriously, do people pay 3084x more? Silly Americans, (those overpriced) trix are for kids. read more

This is my 2nd time here and I love everyone here! No appointment needed. They are super friendly and quick! I took baby for his first haircut here last time and they were very patient. It took 2 people to cut his hair since he is a wiggle monster. Yesterday, I took my 2 older boys and we were out in less than 20 mins! $9 for Men/Boys haircut is a steal! Supercuts/Great Clips charge over $13+. Definitely coming back! Parking: In the same shopping center as Carnival Supermarket with ample parking. SUPPORT YOUR LOCAL BUSINESS!! read more

I've gone here twice. There are three vietnamese women here. They are very difficult to communicte with (in English). It's $10 if you want a scissor cut, but only $8 for a clipper cut. If you want a straight forward cut, then I would say no problem going here. If you have particular preferences and need to communicate those, then you need to go elsewhere. read more

Sometimes it's perfect, sometimes it's not. Got many compliments from co workers for my hair when I go here. Sometimes they prick you but no blood yet. The guy and Vicky are both great. STAY AWAY FROM THE OTHER LADY. She is the reason -1 stars. She fucked up my hair badly twice, but Vicky and the other guy fixed it easily for free the next day (separate occasions); I guess it's not really free because that's another tip and another trip, and time is money. As long as you don't get the one Shitty Lady, you're fine. read more

I got a really great haircut here. There was no wait at all. The lady asked me several times how I wanted my hair to make sure she wasn't doing it incorrectly. I liked the attentiveness. The sign says $9+ for guys. It seems like the rate is actually $10 but they want to seem cheaper. Still a good deal. read more

This place is very unprofessional. They made a huge mistake on my wife's eyebrows and nails!! Terrible Job!!! The lady that did my wife's nails and eye brows sucks!! Needs to retire! And I went back to get my money she told no and and that the nails where perfect! When I sat down and asked to talk to the owner she got in my face. If you don't believe me check your security cameras!! She did a ugly ugly job and refused to even apologize. She even went as far as to tell me there was no owner because no one owns it! Hmmm.... Basicly no one should ever go there because they don't care if they do a good job or not they just want your money andnfor you to leave and not question they're Ugly work!! I hope karma get her because she is an bad person for what she did today!! read more

I only go to barbers near my home. I like to shop local and get my services done local. Fortunately for me, the haircuts are only $8 and the girl who does my hair is actually far superior to my previous barber in Hillcrest, who I paid much more for a base haircut. Although, I usually compensate for the low fee with a generous tip. Which might be the tactic here. There usually isn't a line here, which I love. I just walk in and my favorite stylist is already waiting for me. I've read a few people talking about communication difficulties but I haven't experienced that. The women I've talked with are very competent and always very happy. When you arrive always sign in, no matter what. They have their own process and they will not service you until you do. So just do it lol The first time I came here, I didn't like my haircut. It got cut too short. That's usually what happens whenever I make my way to a new barbershop, which is whenever I move. However, I suggest try the other stylist/barbers as they all have different skill levels. I tend to use the youngest female, although I have been wanting to try the older gentleman but he never seems to be around. Anyways, this is definitely a great place and you should check it out. read more

Really friendly staff and really quick service. Been going there since I was a kid. Can't beat a $8 cut. Love listening to all the Vietnamese ladies talking to each other in their native tongue (I don't speak a word of Vietnamese). Highly recommend this place! read more

I totally love going here for my haircut! I was won over the first time I walked in and I asked for a "high and tight" (from my old military days) and one of the ladies knew what I was asking! After that, I learned how to ask for low, medium and high fades and so on. I never had a problem communicating with anyone there. The ladies that work there are awesome, nice and make you feel welcomed. Bonus! I see a lot of locals. I see a lot of ladies getting their feet, hands and hair done almost every time I go. So, I am guessing the ladies like what they do for them (since I have been told women are very particular on who does their hair and nails). The pricing is great for the cut that I get. I appreciate what they do. They don't take credit cards or checks. Cash only. Other than that, I highly recommend them! read more

Love this Place!!! Son wanted a hair cut, just didn't want to spend $20 something at Super Cut. I remembered this place as I visit Carnival a lot. I was a bit nervous as this was our first time. Not everyone can cut my son's type of hair. O.M.G. The guy who cut my son's hair did a much better job than Super Cut!!! Everyone was so nice and personal. I chatted with Vicky as I sat and watched. I need my ends trim badly, I will most definitely go here. There was a gentleman getting his hair cut and look Marvelous Darling!! My son was very pleased as well. This is so the place to go to get your hair cut. As I mentioned they did a BETTER job than Super Cut. The Price Is So RIGHT!!! Check It out Folks!!!! read more

Been coming here for over 15 years for women and boy hair cuts. Vicki gave my boy his first hair cut! I usually take anyone who is available for me (when I'm in a rush and just need a quick trim $25 with tip). They always do a fabulous job. There is another older women who tends to take the first chair to the right when you walk in. She is also good just don't know her name. Generally we just do fade 3 and a 2 for boys. Today we tried a mohawk for my son. TIP: google a picture of what hair cut you want. It came out fantastic! There is an older balding man who cut hair like Edward scissor hands. LOL. There MAY be an English barrier but just get pass that and it's all good. The service is good totally recommend them. Can't beat the price at $9 for men and boys. read more

They made my hair perfectly and for so cheap! Very accurate and very fast job. Lanny is a real professional. Lightened my hair, that has a very tender shade, and I am happy, I finally have appropriate haircut, on what they actually specialize. I don't know, why there are so few reviews, as they always have a lot of visitors. Anyway, I am very satisfied and had a great value for money. read more

Mesa Hair Styling - Hair Stylists Near Me - San Diego, California

I once in a blue moon write a review. But today I will make an exception. The ladies at this shop were really friendly and got down to business. They asked me how I wanted it and took the time to listen. I placed myself at their mercy and was very pleased. I think I found my barber. Special thanks to lonny..you have a new loyal customer. I live downtown but it's worth going to mesa.. See you in two weeks! read more

I've been here twice. The first time i went i swore i would never go back. They butchered my hair something awful. I like a short professional look and aside from that usually give the barber rein to style appropriately. This place didn't speak much english, but i figured a haircut is a haircut but boy was i wrong. It was lopsided and had to be redone a few weeks later at another shop. Then about 6 months ago my boy friend moved in with me and he likes to support local businesses and wanted to give this place ago. I said no, but he won and we went. The next day at work someone actually asked him "What happened to your hair!?!" I used the dog trimmers on his hair that night and he looked much better! It was at least an even shave all over his head instead of clumpy and lopsided. Just don't go here. read more

I would frequent this barber shop when I lived close by. The ladies were all friendly and skillful. The prices are competitive and, after going several times, the lady that cut my hair learned exactly what I wanted each time without me even saying anything. read more

As great as the first time I went! Still $10 for an affordable haircut!

I am a cheap. But, my hair is really hard to cut well (or so I have been told). WHen I try a new place, most of the time my hair always ends up looking bad. As I expected, the woman at this place botched my hair. Even though the owner offer to fix my hair I never came back :*( I stopped coming there, and instead got really professional cuts for $30 at a place in La jolla next to my job. Last year I went there again since I needed a quick cut for work. As I waited, I heard some girl telling her boyfriend to ask for Vicky since she was really good and can cut better than even expensive professional places. I decided to ask for her too and it turns out Vicky was the lady who fixed my hair. At work people kept complimented my haircut (although I am not sure if they are jsut being nice). I have going there for the past year and have been asking for Vicky (like I said I am cheap) and the quality have been consistent. Ohh, and did I mention that it was cheap? :=D read more

This business is close to where I live, and the prices are low. It should have been a great deal, but what seemed to be too good to be true was really just that. The sign on the outside read "full service for men and women." Not true. Their strength is in cutting men's hair. Period, and it's cheap because you get what you pay for: a flawed haircut. If you are a man, then the difference between a good and a bad cut is two weeks. No big deal. You pay with a smile and try another place, or tell yourself that it's only a haircut. but for women a bad haircut is an eternity. At least for me, a bad haircut is a big deal. More specifically, they give women men's cuts, and expect women to react like men. I walked out upset with my man cut, and came back the next day to talk it over with the high ranked. Not only it was a waste of time, but it added salt to injury. Her third world defensive mannerism was unprofessional at best and hurtful at worse. Absolutely no customer service skill what so ever. I encountered a prosecutor-like person who was determined to win the argument that my cut is what I asked for at any cost. I retreated and left to the sound of her giggling. It shouldn't be a surprise that I give them the lowest ratings possible. In my book, they failed in quality of work and in customer service. read more

On the suggestion of friends that live in the neighborhood I tried Mesa Hair Styling about four years ago. Have been going there ever since! It's like finding a hole in the wall restaurant with great food. It isn't fancy but the haircuts are consistently good and the price can't be beat. There is a $1 charge if you use a credit card. If you have a problem with that just bring cash. read more
