The stylists are very skilled and friendly, the salon is still really relaxing with a great ambiance, and my appointments are always right on time. I previously saw Melanie (who does an amazing job) but needed to switch due to my schedule changing so I was no longer in sync with Melanie's availability. I've been seeing Kaitlyn for a while now, and she does a fantastic job (and is just a lovely person in general!). It's great to have a salon where you could see any of their stylists and reliably get the same high quality. I will definitely continue to be a repeat client!

I've driven by this barber so many times in the last 20+ years of living in Belmont, and now that I…read morehave younger kids, we decided to check it out after someone else we knew mentioned them. What a great experience! My son liked going to a place in Foster City that closed up, and we were worried that we couldn't find one that my son would go to. He wasn't a fan of the buzzing by his ear in general. From the very first time he went to Belmont Hair Studio, he was excited to go. Both stylists (a mother-daughter combo) are super nice and very sweet to him. He has always felt comfortable and even lets them buzz the clippers by his ear. He also asks when we are going back to them. I would have never guessed that my son would come to an adult barber so soon, but they made it an effortless transition! They are very accommodating and easy to get a hold of. We made a call and they let us know which time slots would have less traffic and to come in then. They jotted our name down and we came at the appropriate time. I have also seen walk-ins come in without a problem. They serve adults and children alike. My experience with Belmont Hair Studio was from my son's visits as I cut my own hair. They are fair with their prices and will get you in and out of there in a jiffy! Thank you Belmont Hair Studio for being so wonderful! Grade: A+

The haircut was really quick, but maybe too quick, as my husband wished his fade was more prominent (the transition between hair lengths could have been better). Overall, if you're looking for a quick, easy, and affordable barber, then this is your place. $21 (cash only) for a men's haircut as of January 2025.

My hair looks and feels amazing, and I've gotten so many compliments. The color is so vibrant and perfectly done, and you can tell she really cares about her work and pays attention to every detail. She also made the whole appointment such a comfortable and enjoyable experience, which I really appreciated. I honestly couldn't be happier with how everything turned out and I'm so glad I found her. Definitely going back to her!
