I needed a new stylist that wasn't your standard small-town barber, that I could trust to even out my hair as I grew it longer. Ryan did a great job. Super chill guy. Pleasure hanging out with him for the cut. Nice little shop with good movies on the screen. read more

Oconnell Cuts - Ryan evened out my hair as I grow it back out - Barbers Near Me

Found Ryan when we moved to the area 3 years ago and haven't gone anywhere else. Me and my two boys go about every month. Great vibe and attention to detail. read more

Needed a haircut asap but also wanted to try out a new style. I had an idea of what kind of wanted but was able to get some awesome advice and was so happy with the final result! On-site area was clean and well kept. I can't say I've ever visited a shop at someone's house before, but it was great. Thanks for the sick fade! read more

So reading all positive reviews, I decided to give Oconnell Cuts a shot. Like many have said, Ryan does seem like a nice guy. The reason for 1 star is I had just finished showing Ryan a picture of the cut I wanted, nothing fancy, high fade. I explained to Ryan how I wanted my hair to be cut. Ryan nodded that he acknowledged. Puts the clippers on my head and in the 2nd pass, completely butchers my hair. Ryan apologized and took responsibility that it was his mistake. The issue I have was not so much that the bad haircut (I mean it was bad) but it was that after it was said and done, Ryan still charged me. C'mon Ryan, that's just poor customer service. It was your mistake. Eat the cost. How can you charge a client for your mistake? You don't go into a bakery to order a birthday cake for your kid. Then go back to pick up the cake that reads sorry for your loss and still expect to pay for it. Get it right bro. read more

Ryan pays attention to details. He is very customer-focused and sincere. I feel great about supporting him as he builds what is sure to be a very popular barbershop in the future. The haircut experience is no-frills - no shampoo etc - but all I wanted was a good haircut, so I was fine with that. Importantly, I did not need a 'product' in my hair - the cut was good enough for them to remain the way I wanted them to! read more

Just got a haircut from Ryan, and I'm very pleased! Asked for a low skin fade, and it looks perfect. Really cool guy, highly recommend!

Great cut - attention to detail excellent. Ryan is a great guy, easy to talk with and knows his craft. Recommend for the excellence he provides and you will not leave disappointed in any way. His passion for what he does is great and i will be back - having tried a number of salons and the deal here is far beyond money - which is very reasonable - but also workable around my schedule. Thanks Ryan read more

I was looking for a barber in the area for a last minute clean up for my son. Usually I'd do it myself but I've been busy with work and had no time before rushing to a wedding in the Ventura County area this past weekend. I looked on yelp for local barbers and saw O'Connell Cuts was open in Newbury Park / Thousand Oaks area. It was a long shot but he answered my text and was able to fit my son right in. The business is located in a small home studio. There's plenty of parking and it was very clean. Ryan enforces all covid restrictions (masks, social distancing, and sanitizing). He gave my son a great clean up and thank God my son felt the same. He's picky and getting him to go along with this was a task but Ryan made it happen. I'd definitely refer him. Thank you! read more

Went to Ryan when he was in a "brick & mortar" barbershop and not only has he earned my loyalty, but his new setup has been seamless for me. Well ventilated, TV, fridge with beverages, and a comfortable, professional atmosphere with his same high end approach. Nice, down-to-earth, and easy to talk to, or just relax while he does his thing. read more

Been going to Ryan for a long time now. Shop is clean and organized, and is comfortable even with all the COVID restrictions.

Always has me leaving feeling clean and fresh. read more

I always get a great haircut and fade from Ryan and he's always great to talk to! His new setup is awesome, nice flooring, AC works great and always something good on the TV. Looking forward to next time! read more

Ryan has been cutting my hair since he was at a local shop before the pandemic shut everything down, and I've never been disappointed. When he decided to go out on his own after shops were allowed to open again, it was a no-brainer decision for me to continue going to him. He's very detailed with his cuts, doesn't stack his appointments so he has to rush me out of the chair and is super chill as well. I've grown a beard in the past year and Ryan has done a great job keeping it neat and giving me advice on the maintenance. read more

Great hair cut and nice adaptation. Ryan is a skilled professional who set up a tiny shop to reduce exposure during the pandemic

Ryan does a fantastic job. Professional, clean, great attention to detail, responsive, and very talented.

Found my local barber. Ryan cares about his craft, his clients, and safety during COVID, a true professional who gives great cuts. See you next time. read more

I came here for a haircut for the first time suspicious of the place during covid. It turns out it felt so safe and comfortable while everything was sanitized and my barber was super friendly. I usually don't like doing this outside because of covid but this really made me change my mind. The setup was very professional and was not hot at all even though it was 88 outside. This place is definitely the place you want to go for a quality cut. My barber really took the time to make sure he was doing what I wanted. Super friendly and nice. They can expect my support for a long time. read more

Amazing Barber who is incredibly talented and makes a client feel right at home. It's a professional haircut in a friendly, relaxed type of environment. read more

Reached out to Ryan as a first time customer. He was able to work me into his schedule at the last minute before a business trip. Very professional. His place is a nicer + cleaner set-up than most barber shops. Very Covid compliant (mask, gloves, drape, sanitizer for tools, etc). He's a trained barber and licensed by the city. As a first time customer, Ryan took the time to ask about my grooming and what I was looking to have done. My daughters even complimented my haircut. Will definitely return. A+. read more

Ryan is great; very accommodating. He does a great cut and is very cognizant of the challenges with Covid. Would highly recommend!
