Great work. Nive environment. No up sell. Simple quick and has my approval as a returning customer.

Horrible service. I come here a lot, but will never come again. The lady does not speak English at all. I asked for brown color dye, she applied black and left it on way too long. I asked her several times to wash it off, she refused and was very rude. When I told her it is took dark,she said oh well, nothing I can do now terrible. read more

Great place, very friendly and reasonably priced. Parking can be a bit tough but the location is very convenient. Thuy is the best! read more

A friend and I visited Modern Barber on a Saturday afternoon in preparation for his birthday celebrations. He'd been to Modern Barber before and had been satisfied with the job they had done. They are located in a small plaza in downtown Tustin. Their facilities are clean and professional looking. They have a high end feel without any pretentiousness. We didn't have an appointment but my friend was assigned a barber right away. The woman that worked on his hair Kathy, had apparently cut his hair once before and she knew exactly what he wanted despite the somewhat poor job he was doing at telling her what he wanted. He just about said, "please just make it look good" which could mean any number of things to different people but she definitely made it look good and was quick and quiet while she worked. She took time to ensure that she'd removed any loose cut hairs from his face and when she was done with his cut she massaged his head with a warm towel. This entire process cost him $15 before tip. Not bad at all for a place with such professional and kind services. My friend later mentioned to me that the chairs are very comfortable and the owner remembered him from his previous visit. This place has definitely become my friend's go-to barber shop. The waiting area is comfortable as well. They offer coffee and water to guests. I often tend to find myself critiquing barber shops by the hair dos and style of the barbers. All the barbers looked stylish, professional and had great hair. That gives me a sense of confidence that they have good taste. I would consider getting my hair done here myself in the future. read more

Last few times have been my worst haircuts ever. Even by Paul. Doesn't take his time to be meticulous and will cut double the length you request. Never coming back. Bring a ruler. read more

The only reason that this place is even getting 2 stars from me is because my haircut is cut nicely, BUT IT IS NOT WHAT I WANTED. The barber shop that I typically go to only has 3 stars and they always give me what I want, but the technique isn't always perfect. So, thinking that a place with a much better rating would do a much better job, I came here. Oh boy, was I wrong. Before I sat down I told her I wanted a flat top with the sides faded. She said okay, she would do it. The haircut in itself isn't horrible. The fade is decent, the lines are clean, but the part that she messed up the most is the top!! My hair was about 2 1/2 inches long before i went in there. Now, I'm lucky if it's even half an inch. When she asked me how long I wanted the top, I told her that I only wanted her to even it out because I want it as long as possible. Now I have this. My eye sight is so poor that when I don't have my glasses on I'm considered legally blind. Since you can't wear glasses while you're getting your hair cut, I couldn't see anything that was happening until it was too late ... This was actually supposed to be my last haircut before i got extensions dreaded in, and now I can't do it because they didn't cut it the way that I wanted it. I am very unhappy and I can tell you now that I will NEVER come back to this place again. Unless I'm trying to go bald that is. -_- read more

Went in recently. An elderly gentleman rushed through my hair and it looks horrible. Nothing like what I suggested and my hair looks like a mushroom cap. Do read more

I used to come here back in 2013/2014 for my haircuts. Paul is a rockstar! I'm an Asian woman with short hair, and a lot of times stylists will give me cuts that look like men's hair cuz that's all they know. But Paul knows how to cut the hair on top of my head such that it still looks kinda feminine even though the hair on the sides and back of my head use clippers. Back then, Paul saved regular customer's hair styles in his computer so he would know how to cut your hair exactly the same each time you came back. I love that. I wish more places did that. Anyways, I moved back to the area recently and was so happy that Modern Barber still existed. I made an appt as soon as I needed a cut. When I got there, I asked if he still saved hairstyles on his computer, even ones from several years ago. He asked for my phone number, and checked his computer and voila it was still there! He even had the exact date that I was there last and we chuckled at how it had been 3.5 years since my last haircut. Really though, the time means nothing. Paul gave a haircut as good as I remember. He's got great skill, and I'm happy to see from these other reviews that the other stylists he has in the shop now are just as talented. I hope this shop sticks around for a good long time. read more

Needed to find a barber since my normal barber for the last 16 years went on a long vacation. I read the reviews for modern barber and decided to give them a try. I got to say that it was a great experience, got a great hair cut and I am picky. I will be coming back when the circumstances call for it. read more

Terrible men's scissor cuts. I've never had someone so seemingly inept at wielding scissors. Ho Tien Thin Nguyen could not take simple instructions of how I wanted it to look and required a photo, obviously not used to cutting men's hair without a number. She didn't wet the hair at first, making the cut uncomfortable with it difficult for her to work with my hair. She started with thinning shears instead of using them as a finishing touch. She quickly gave up and went to the familiar buzzer with a comb. The result? Terribly choppy look with little layering effect to blend the length from slightly longer up top to a bit shorter on the sides (barely not able to hang over the ears.). It isn't a complete disaster, no major mistakes just overall bad at men's scissor cuts. Try somewhere else, gents. See photo with white backdrop. read more

Modern Barber - Choppy cut on slightly longer hair. Ha Tien Nguyen (Teri) can't seem to use scissors, seems only used to # shaves. - Barbers Near Me - Tustin, California

My SO and I have been getting our hair cut here for over a year now and have never been disappointed. In the past, I'd get Kathy. Sometimes, Paul. Recently, I've been getting trims by Terry. Everyone has been nothing short of masterful. I never feel like they're just dialing it in. My last cut with Terry could honestly rival luxury salons in Newport. She was so thoughtful. She'd stand back, assess, and trim accordingly. I hesitate to sing her praises too loudly because I'm afraid she'll get too busy and won't have time for me. All in all, they're very nice, attentive, and intuitive. It's only through their hands that I've been able to gracefully transition from pixie to lob. They've also managed to regularly tame my SO's unruly Harry Potter-like hair. They really are masters of their craft. And for the price, it's a damn good deal. read more

A friend recommended Modern Barber and I'm happy to say I like it a lot! I'm very picky about my fade but Paul and his team do a great job. I like to keep my hair fresh, so I've been going back about every 10 days or so since last year. I've always walked in without an appointment and never had to wait more than 15 mins. read more

I've been coming here for almost 3 years and while everyone here is good, Tommy is by far the best in my opinion. Throughout my time here, some of the popular stylists to go to were Nancy and Helen, but unfortunately both stopped working here since earlier this year. However, after they left Tommy came in and shattered expectations for me. Not only is he very skilled in what he does, he takes great care into detail on how you want your hair cut plus he's just an honest and kind person. He goes out of his way to help you feel welcome and he just brings such good positive energy. You can tell he really enjoys in what he does and he especially cares for the customer. I'm sad that I'll be moving to a new city for a new job soon and so it's gonna be hard for me to find a new person who is just as good as Tommy in every aspect. While you can't really go wrong with anyone here to cut your hair, if you haven't already I'd go to Tommy no question. Anyways thank you Modern Barber, it's been a good 3 years and I wish everyone the best :) read more

completely overpriced haircut I was really disappointed after reading the reviews and hearing good things. haircut wasn't what I expected. I asked for a comb over and I got something that looks like a flat top. I wouldn't recommend coming here worse worst $17 dollars ever spent. If you are going to spend that amount of money I would rather recommend you go to supercuts at least they get your hair cut right. read more

Went back to this barbershop for a haircut today. Friendly, understanding and detail oriented, Paul cut my hair very well just like the way I wanted. Overall I'm satisfied with the haircut I got. Definitely recommend this place and the barber (Paul) for anyone who is looking for a nice hairstyle. read more

Was looking for a cheap haircut in the area and found Modern Barber on yelp and decided to give it a try. My experience has been great over the past few visits: very reasonable prices, fast service (even for walk-ins) and friendly barbers! Its a clean environment and you get in and out fast. read more

Like Brian L Said - Paul truly is the Shiznit o Bang! He is professional, courteous, and reasonable in price. He will not steer you wrong. I would highly recommend him! P.S. I would highly recommend you to make an appointment ahead of time. read more

Great spot for an affordable haircut. I had Lee and he did a good job. I'll definitely be coming back!

It is nice to know a local barbershop that offers a great haircut at a reasonable price, if you're looking for your search should end at the Modern Barber! read more

Unbelievable, tried multiple stylist, told them what I wanted, but they decided to do their own thing. They messed up on a haircut, then charged me full price to fix it. read more

This place is amazing. Paul cuts hair like an absolute pro. He is extremely humble and takes his time to perfect whoever he is cutting. I randomly wound up here about 6 months ago after moving from far away and I can safely say that only Paul will be cutting my hair from now on. Thank you Modern Barber and keep up the good work! read more

Great shop! Came here for the first time and Nancy was so helpful. She gave me a solid low 0 fade and it looked great! I'm usually nervous about going to a new barber, but I came in and she was very helpful. Showed her a picture and it was perfectly replicated. Definitely coming back here again read more

Amazing place! I love my haircut. Katie is great and takes her time to make sure my hair looks great.

Came here for the first time and was able to get seated pretty quick. I was cut by a girl(sorry I wasn't able to ask your name!) and I gave her the details of what I wanted (Pompadour top, faded back, and tapered sides). I was very satisfied with the detail, she was able to respond well and fix some noticeable patches. The conversation was very free flowing which made the experience more satisfying. 5/5, great detail on the Pomp and is very good for the price. Will be back really soon! Hopefully will find out my stylist's name. read more

If you want attention to detail, look no further. Modern Barber is a great place to get your hair cut. For me, I am big on fades and lines. Not too many barbers have the attention to detail like Nancy does. She takes her time and understands what the end result should be. The facility is very clean and professional. I highly recommend at least trying Modern Barber out to get the haircut with attention to detail. The warm towel to clean the trimmed hair at the end is a great addition to the experience. read more

I got a really good haircut here. The barber was really nice. I like the interaction between me and him. The only thing I don't recommend is getting a beard cut because it's easy to do at home and they will charge you $10 for a lil trim. But I do look pretty good right now. read more

Paul is the Man! I only go to Modern Barber these days. Took me a while to find someone good, since I moved to south OC. So glad I found'em. I do recommend making an appointment; they are usually available same day. read more

Paul is very good at what he does. He gets you in and out in a timely fashion. Great customer service. Haven't tried any other of his works but I think you will be good hands! Shop is very clean and there's good Thai food and deli sand which Resturant if you get hungry while you wait for your hair cut. For the ladies there's a nail saloon in the same plaza too :) read more

Clean, modern, friendly, good price and a good haircut. Plan on being a regular here.

If you're looking for a new barber, look no further. This is the place to go! Paul is incredibly talented and his haircuts are amazing. I've asked him to experiment and try new hairstyles on me when I visit and I have yet to be disappointed. Thank you Paul! read more

No question about it. This place is golden. As much as I'd love to keep it all to myself, I have to give credit where is due. Tustin needed a legit Barber shop that does great fades and cuts. This is my place- read more

Clean and modern. Brought my boys in for a haircut. He did great on the haircut. Very professional. But charged me more for the haircut than what was said because of the TYPE of haircut my boys got?!? It was only a couple dollars more but it's the principle of it that I don't like. read more
