Sharp Cuts Hair Salon - Hair Salons Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

See all

I don't know why I didn't know about this place sooner. Usually my local maps show the same places around me. I guess I got lucky to get an appointment here on a Monday, for some reason a lot of hair places take off on Mondays. The price was reasonable too, it's run by an Asian woman and reminds me of a small place I used to go to when I lived in Washington. read more

Run by a wonderful hairstylist. She's so friendly. The salon is clean and inviting. The price is amazing. $13 for a men's haircut. This includes a shampoo and a scalp massage! I paid $20. It's well worth it. A gem. read more

Best cut I've had in Philly - and what a steal! This place is right on Broad Street - deep in South Philly. The vibe is chill, and the place is clean. There is one main stylist who also is the owner and I usually can find parking right in the area or in the middle of Broad Street without much of an issue. I usually show the style that I'm looking for on my phone and she delivers consistently! Also there's always a fresh wash after the cut! You're not going to have to risk being a hair piñata after leaving since it's taken care of before you exit - looking fly and feeling fresh! Recommend this place highly! FYI: cash only! read more

Wan is amazing. Never overpay for a tight fade and shears on the top. I get a complicated cut and she nails it everytime. Prices are more than reasonable. Wan is better than most South Philly barbers! read more

After my 2nd visit I am a fan. My 1st cut was alright, but the second one is much better. The owner and sole stylist Hoa is an Asian woman who is friendly, pleasant, and does a great job. She washes your hair after the cut, which seems unusual, but includes a scalp massage. I guess this is an Asian thing, as I have only got this treatment from establishments run by folks of that persuasion. The shop is very clean, the cut is $13, and does not take very long. I hope to make this my new go-to haircut place. Located on Broad St, between Morris & Moore. read more

This place is a hidden gem. So many fkn hipster haircut places here in Philly; I don't need a beer or a curly-q mustache for November, just give me a friggin' haircut! This place gets it. $13 and perfectly done, and you even get a soothing hairwash with that. I don't think I will ever go anywhere else in Philly again, this place has me for as long as I'm here. Highly recommended. Edit: this place is cash only, so be prepared! I'm often not and I usually skip places that insist on cash, but this place is worthy of an exception. read more

Great spot for a haircut! The prices are extremely fair and Hoa listens to everything you're looking for a haircut. I only went for a hair trim as I'm growing my hair out, but she was still kind enough to wash my hair beforehand. Highly recommend if you're ever in the area read more

Just moved here from Dallas, Texas and was in need of a haircut. I called and Hoa Answered! This is a hidden Gem, she welcomed me and made me feel at home. This lady is very talented. I told her what I wanted and she did an Amazing Job. Not everyone can cut my hair nor do I let them. Picture of me and Hoa :-) read more

Sharp Cuts Hair Salon - Hair Salons Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

I wish I could give this place more than five stars. A true neighborhood gem. First, the owner, Hoa (pronounced Ho-wah, but with more of a blend then we would normally give it in American English), is incredibly nice and welcoming. Second, the salon itself is clean, well lit and warm. Third, and as others have mentioned, if you want a straightforward style you can get a rock-solid haircut for $13 - not sure how it is for more high-end cuts. It's so cheap that I worry about whether she will stay in business, but since she has been there a long time she's must have found a way to make it work. I've been there twice now and have had a great experience all around. Plus she's more than happy to tell you stories about the neighborhood, her family and her plans for the future. She has seen a lot of change in the last 25 years. Definitely the type of small business that is worth supporting with your dollars. read more

How did I missed this nice, friendly, super fast, clean, hair salon place for about 10 years I've lived in South Philly? Highly recommended for men looking for a simple, clean, fast and cheap hair cut. $13 cuts. All worth the money. Another good thing is, the place open earlier than any other hair salon in the neighborhood. You can walk in or call to make an appointment. read more

Before Sharp Cuts only two different people had cut my hair in my entire life. Having moved to Philly recently, I was unsure I'd find a barber/hair stylist that could live up to my expectations. I'm happy to say that Hoa (the sole proprietor of Sharp Cuts) did an incredible job and I will be going back to her for the foreseeable future! Oh and did I mention that it's only $13? I gave her a $20 and still felt like I'd got a great deal! I have to imagine that it'd be hard to beat the price/quality ratio at Sharp Cuts anywhere else in Philly! read more

All I can say is that you get what you paid for. The owner is very friendly and the place was empty so walk-in shouldn't be a problem at all. Requested for a "1 on the sides and just a trim of the top" but got a 2 all the way around except for the front which was maybe a 3. I came here due to the reviews but to their credit, they had Hoa do the cutting. Didn't get her name but I'm assuming it wasn't Hoa. read more

Best hair salon in the area for a quick cut. Very reasonably priced and she is super nice.

I lived a block away from here and always gave it a chuckle when I'd walk buy, seeing the 80s-era posters in the windows. Inside thought, there is the best cut I've ever gotten for a dirt cheap price,even by cheap price standards. The owner is super nice, matched my cut to the ideas I showed her, and gave me ideas on how to style it. I got so many positive reactions from coworkers and my SO loved it Update-this is seriously my favorite stylist. I've never had anything close to a bad cut, and the service is always spectacular. I pay $13 for a scissor cut and get results that should cost way more. I love this place read more

Discovered this gem of a hair cut salon through Yelp, so I thought I'd pass on the good word to others! After about two years of consistently coming here, Hoa has treated me very well and knows exactly what I want everytime I come in! I would recommend this place to anyone, male or female, in a heartbeat. I should also mention the GREAT pricing -- $13 is a steal no matter where you go. I wish there were 10 stars because Hoa at Sharp Cuts deserves all of them. read more

This place is nothing short of fantastic. It begins with the awesomely-outdated 80s decor and posters. The place looks a little outdated, but don't be fooled! A scissor cut for a male is only $13, and let me tell ya- the $13 haircut I got here is better than every other $30 haircut I got at other places in Philly. I don't know her name, but the woman that works here is very thorough and really takes her time. And if that's not enough, she's super nice. Needless to say, check this place out! read more

I had a great experience at this hair salon. Owner was very nice and great with my daughter. I will be going back in a few days for myself. Prices are very reasonable! read more

Sharp Cuts Hair Salon - Hair Salons Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

I was in dire need of a hair cut that night, I knew I had to go out and find a barbershop on my own. As I strolled down the Broad Street block, looking for a place, any place, to give my hair a breath of new life. That's when I saw the sign "Sharp Cuts Hair Salon". It looked like the kind of place that only gratified the elderly. So, I decided to take my chances. I approached the entrance door and was greeted with such hospitality. I could not have fathom such benevolence from a hair salon. The hair stylist paused for a second, staring at my hair. Assessing me as if she had seen that look on a man's face before. She knew I was in need of some help, and fast. She told me to have a seat as she pulled out a pair of scissors and held it solemnly above my head. With her keen observation, she started to hack away the monstrosity which was bestowed upon her. The hair stylist was absolutely attentive to details and made aesthetic choices. When I turned around and looked in the mirror, I was astonished. I know that nothing in life is perfect, but that hair cut made a great case for the definition of perfection. After I paid the stylist, she said "Thank you." To which I replied "No, Thank you." Highly recommended, you will not be disappointed. read more

Best haircuts for a very reasonable price. Easily accessible by the Broad Street Line (Tasker Morris stop) and Hoa does a great job every single time. If you're looking for a place to get a haircut, definitely give it a shot - you won't be disappointed! read more

Easy to find. Spotlessly clean, spacious, and welcoming. Hoa (pronounced Hwa) is the proprietor and runs the whole show herself. She was gregarious and complimentary from beginning to end. Enjoyed the conversation and my hair looks fresh and happy! Thanks to my fellow Yelpers for the great recommend! read more

I was pleasantly surprised by this place. The owner, who's name is Hoa, was extremely friendly and cut my hair exactly as I asked. She was talkative and knowledgeable about the area, and kept me entertained through most of the cut. For such a cheap price, the cut was great. I'll definitely go back. read more

I no longer live in the neighborhood, but I still take the train here when I need to get my hair cut. (I did even when I lived across the river in New Jersey.) This place is that good. And super cheap to boot. Getting your hair cut here is always the right choice. read more

Called Trizzie on Monday my bangs were driving me crazy. She said come in and now was fine! She super nice and knows what she is doing. I will definitely return. Thank you so much! read more

In the land of 60 dollar hair salons this place is an oasis. 13 bucks for a cut and wash from Wa, the extremely nice owner and stylist. I will never go anywhere else for as long as I live here. Can't vouch for high matinence ladies but if your a dude in the neighborhood this must be on your radar. Give it a shot! read more

I lived here all my life but this was the first time I went to the salon. I am quite the introverted person but felt comfortable getting my haircut. I showed her a picture of what I wanted, and she delivered in such an amazing way. I am in love with the haircut I got. She even offered shampoo + gel but had to decline as I already showered prior to the haircut. Will be coming back! Paid $20 for a $13 price, it was beyond worth it. read more

Hoa is a nice, sweet old lady that reminds me of my mom. Great haircut for cheap. Convenient location too. What more is there to say?

for $13 you can't beat it. It's easy to get an appointment, I didn't have to wait at all when I got there and got a great haircut.

Normally, I cut my hair. I hate to spend money on such a simple cut, but my girlfriend really wanted me to get a professional to cut my hair to make it look neat and clean. So I checked the reviews and prices and found this diamond in the rough. For $13 I got my buzz cut and a shampoo. The lady (didn't get her name this time) was wonderful and has been living in the area for 30 years. She was a delight and made me feel welcome and taken care of. For the price and the service I will definitely be coming back. read more

Hoa is awesome - I've been going there for about a year now and she never disappoints. She's incredibly thorough, pleasant and professional. She cuts and washes (men's) hair for $13?! I'm always a walk in and rarely wait more than 10 minutes. Honestly, I'd pay more for the great job she does. read more

If you need a $20 haircut in Philly, you should try it out here. I walked in and the hairdresser served me right away. She was friendly and talkative. I got a decent haircut that was somewhat inexpensive, so I'd recommend this place to anyone that has a tight budget. read more

Best haircut I ever got! She knew exactly what I wanted! Try it for yourself you'll be satisfied!

Whoa provides excellent service and is a very good hairstylist. for the price its one of the best cuts in town!

I came by here for the first time last week. I had walked, biked, and drove past this place for many years but never bothered to drop in til recently. I called and scheduled an appointment (which you should do, unless you like waiting for hours). I had my hair cut, shampoo and conditioned, then gelled for ONLY $13. Needless to say I will be back the next time I need a haircut. read more

Been coming here for 4 years and pray that she stays in business. I also pray that she doesn't realize how much she could charge for her services (which is why I always pay much more than the $13 that she charges). Great place, very friendly owner. read more

Best value for a haircut in all of Philly! The owner is very friendly and would stop along the way to make sure we were on the same page regarding the style of my haircut. You receive a shampoo wash and scalp massage all included in the amazing price of $13! I would definitely recommend Sharp Cuts to anyone whether you are male, female, young or old. read more
