Love this place. My boyfriend and I live down the street and walk over when we need a cut. Cliff has permed my hair and my mom's- both of us were very satisfied. I have gotten many comments on it and it lasted over a year. Christopher just recently gave me a long layered cut that was perfect and just what I asked for. My boyfriend gets a mullet style cut and is always satisfied. Great prices and friendly staff! read more

Amazing service and quality. Francis does an exceptional job, he focuses on the details, is very quick and efficient with his work.

I randomly stumbled in after a *hairpocalyspe* situation from another salon in the neighborhood and I'm super grateful to say that Cliff fixed it! You can tell from the way he cuts your hair that he is very experienced. Thankfully, it was not busy when I walked in, so the wait was only a couple of minutes. Cliff worked very efficiently and I was out in 20 minutes. Now I know exactly where to go next time I need a haircut. Thank you Cliff!! read more

I've been going there for over thirty years. Cliff is a stand-up guy and he's raised good sons to help carry the business forward.

Great place go see bk the barber but all the barbers are great. Felt very welcome. I will be back​

I've been going to Francis for years, and I can honestly say I always leave feeling fresh and clean. He's got an amazing eye for detail and ensures your cut is perfect. If you're looking for a barber who truly cares about his craft and his clients, Francis is your guy. read more

My boyfriend always comes here and I hadn't gotten a haircut in about two years. The ends of my hair were completely fried and crunchy and it was driving me crazy. The young gentleman that cut my hair did such a fantastic job, my hair feels weightless and smooth and it was an overall great experience. There's not too many small, family owned businesses anymore and it was refreshing to see this one! read more

i always get my hair cut by Francis here and he always does a great job. he pays super close attention to detail on every cut to make sure that it's not uneven in any places. cliff also is good but i haven't gotten a cut from him in a few years. definitely worth it to come here especially considering the price of 30$ per haircut. read more

This was a great find! Great cut, great prices, great location, clean salon, and really kind people. Highly recommend!

Great place for a cut. I don't have a complicated style but they do a super job at a brilliant price.

Had an amazing haircut experience. Look for Francis, he's your man. He's reliable, detail oriented, and gets the job done perfectly. I left feeling great and booked to come back next time. Just a tip, Francis is usually booked out, so call in advance read more

If you are looking for a professional, reliable, and friendly barbershop, look no further! At Simply Cuts, you'll be greeted with a warm welcome from the staff. I have been going to Simply Cuts for a few years, and I book my appointments with Francis because he gets the job done for me! Francis goes above and beyond to get you the haircut that you will love and coming back for. Every time Francis finishes my haircut, he makes me feel confident in my looks, all at a reasonable price! I highly recommend! read more

My cut is pretty simple and they cut me well and very happy about it! It's a no fuss barber service which I really liked.

Don't get a women's haircut here. Been here twice and had bad experience both times with Lisa. Hair was uneven. Very quick but lousy cuts.

Called late Sunday morning for an appointment for a haircut. Was told I could come in right away, which I did. My barber Francis did an excellent job with a shampoo and basic haircut. He listened and did exactly what I wanted him to do, paid attention to detail and worked hard to give me a nice balanced cut. The shop is clean, professional and comfortable. read more

I've stopped in a few times now without an appointment and haven't had to wait more than 15 minutes for a men's haircut. Lisa has cut my hair every time so far and I've been very satisfied each time. Perfect fade and trim on top. Really, all the stylists here are super friendly people I've noticed. They also have a massive selection of products, if you ever need anything while you're in there. I definitely would recommend! read more

I've been going to Cliffs for 15 years. He has the best fade in the business! besides his skill at cutting hair, I also go to Cliff because he and his staff give fast and friendly service at a good price. He is always in a good mood and never misses a day of work. Additionally his staff is great - and now his son who is also talented is cutting hair there too. Five stars! read more

Amazing salon, look for Francis. He's is my go to! 10/10 recommendation! Unbelievable customer service and I always end up looking fresh after a clean cut from him! read more

I'm visiting from NY and needed a haircut so I took a chance on Cliff and he did a fantastic job at a very reasonable price. I will definitely come back again when I'm in SF. read more

The man cutting the hair is very good but the women..... questionable. I hv seen her twice and both times she cut my hair uneven. One side is longer than the other. So from now onwards no way I am going to the women. If I don't get the man I am going elsewhere. read more

Cliff is amazing -reliable, consistent and excellent. we travel from Mill Valley to get a good haircut for my son.

Simply Cuts is my #2 spot to gets my hair did. Word. It's $1 more than the low cost leader down the street, but at $15 bucks they do a very professional and thorough job. One thing I would warn fellow Yelpers of: They like to go after your hair with those 'thinning sheers' - scissors on one side, and a comb like thing on the other. I'm sure they serve some sort of purpose, but when your hair is naturally fine like mine, thinning it further is redundant... read more

I love this place. They are very accommodating if you are in a hurry to get in for an appt. I work in the neighborhood so it is very convenient to drop in for blowout. Ask for Stephanie, she is quick and precise. She does a great blowout. The price is so reasonable you can't beat it. Thanks Cliff and Stephanie. read more

I'm sure the people here are very nice but if you're looking for some level of professionalism in how they handle business, DON'T come here! This place might be good for people who don't care about wasting time but I called a few days in advance and made a hair appointment. I walk in for my noon appt and the 2 hairdressers have people in their seats....ok...maybe they'll be done in a few minutes. While I'm waiting for my turn both ladies take new people! Nearing half past the hour I just walked out as I had to be somewhere at 1pm. From other Yelp reviews I've read, there is a blatant disregard for many of the patrons. Maybe it takes being a regular to get good service or a stroke of luck but my guess is this place is $17 because that's the only reason people will bother stopping in. read more

I'm so proud of what this place has been doing for the Marina community. I have been coming here for the past 15 years and never had a complaint about the quality of the haircut. I know that a lot of my friends in the neighborhood supports Cliff, the store owner, because he's been here for over 20 years! However, it's not just the number of the years that matter to me. Cliff is a good person once you come by often enough as a regular. He'll start to recognize you and it's always a pleasure to catch up with him. No matter what changes this place goes through, this will still be my go-to spot for haircuts! read more

Owner Cliff is excellent. Consistent and quick at a reasonable price. His large space is great for covid spacing needs. I come across town to get cut here. read more

Though I don't end up getting a haircut very often, I've never missed getting one from Cliff and his team at Simply Cuts over the past three decades or so. This is a wonderful local establishment that deserves all of the attention and support we can give it. They do a great job for a reasonable price, always cheerful and eager to please (and offering me one of the favorite wishes that I've ever received at the end of my periodic trims: "And NOW you look handsome!") Check it out! read more

Lisa is great ! She did a awesome blowout and price is very reasonable. My blow out place closed down on chestnut and I felt a little uncomfortable going into the place at first because I usually only go where woman get their hair done but Lisa is the best. I will come back to her instead of seeking out an overpriced blow out salon. read more

Neither of the hair cutters know what a fade is. thank god my hair grows quickly.

Worst hair cut ever. I took my son for a hair cut and the woman cut it as if she was in a rush to go somewhere. People cut grass better than how she used shears on my son's hair. Maybe they have one or two experienced members in their staff but the one who cut my son's hair did a horrible job. Had to get someone else in the shop take over and that saved it. read more

My go to spot for a quick hair fit or blow dry that does not hurt my pocket. The location is pretty neat in marina.

Cliff did an amazing job again for my highlight touchup this past Saturday! I love them. :)

I'm that kind of guy who doesn't plan ahead for his haircut and likes to walk into spots when I'm feeling like I need a snip of the locks. After calling around to other salons for a half hour and none of them having any availability, I found this place, Simply Cuts. Not only was the owner Cliff a super nice guy but, you could tell how much he cares about his business and making sure people feel welcome when entering the store. Cliff and his co worker can turn out some haircuts quick! While I was there, they had 5 or 6 people and the majority of them were done in 15-20 minutes. This feels like the kind of regular neighborhood spot where some people come weekly to keep a clean looking head of hair. $20 bucks for a quick cut. Speedy service and a nice mom and pop vibe. Love it. read more

Great quick service for a reasonable price. No frills but good quality haircut and only $20!

Hi Cliff, I was a monthly returning customer for four years and got a good haircut for a good price. Thats why I was returning. You in person f****ed that up today. As you system is first sits - first got serviced I was in line today at 4:30pm. A Gentlemen sat down in the waiting area exactly 2 people later then me. Out of a sudden the next person was this Gentlemen - bit it should have been me, following your system. I politely brought that to your attention. Fist you ignored me, then after all the women talked to me, you said "I am sorry"... For what? Being a racist, being just dumb or loosing me indefinitely as a customer? Just do the math: You lose 6 x $20 a year = $120. I would probably be in the area for at least 20 more years, that equals $2,400.00+ Well, probably not a lot of money for you. Whats even worth: I will make it my personal profession to tell all my friends to tell all their friend what kind of service you provide... You should be ashamed, I feel very bad for your great employees. This is a recipe for disaster and I have no idea why you did what you did - hope its worth for you. read more

I've been to this place a few times. It looked good when I was there, but when I got back home and looked again, on one side of my head the hair was longer than the other. I guess I should have learned the first time, but I went back again, and again, it was crooked. If you don't mid having uneven hair, it is a great place! Nice people, they take walk-ins, and there is not too long of a wait. UPDATE- Really....When am I going to learn????? I went back, I guess I should have read my review before going back again. I was desperate for a hair cut, and I was just going to get a simple trim. Yeah right! I asked for just an inch off and he cut off at least 3 inches. I asked him to trim the bangs (i WAS growing them out, but needed just a little cut off for the health of my hair), and he cut them all off and gave me new bangs! I AM NEVER GOING BACK! read more

On the plus side, this place is cheap - less than $20 for a haircut - and convenient. I don't think I've ever had to wait more than 15 minutes, even on the weekend with no appointment required. The major downside is the lack of consistency in the final product. I've had haircuts that range from decent to just plain awful, with an average result of mediocre. They seem to struggle with anything beyond the most basic hair styles, by which I mean anything with more than one length. That being said, If you're looking for a cleanup or a simple cut, then this is a viable option. Otherwise I'd steer clear. If you do give them a try, definitely go during off periods (weekdays) when they have more time to spend on each client, as you'll have much better odds of getting a good product. During weekends and other busy times they'll focus solely on getting you in and out as quickly as possible. One final note: they're often weird about paying with credit cards, so you may need to have cash on hand. read more

A very average haircut and average experience. For most of my self-sufficient life I looked for the cheapest haircut I could get away with. These ranged from $5 for some extremely awful haircuts to $25 for some decent and sometimes even impressive haircuts. THIS one in particular cost me $19+tip (yes, they raised their prices apparently). For the last few times, however I have been trying the $50+ salons, which have treated me well. For lack of time and interest in reserving a spot, I decided to go to the highest rated studio that allows walk-in customers near my house. I was greeted by three loud women, in a large, bright studio covered in hair (read: no sweeping). Waited for only 5 minutes... which was a good start. When I was seated in the chair with Nancy, I tried to explain to her how I like my hair cut, to which she uninterestedly cut me off with a sharp, "YES YES" as if she was a clairvoyant hair wizard. Long story short, Nancy the Wizard gave me the same old crew cut (too short, kind of lopsided and messy) that I would expect at any Supercuts or equivalent shop. Maybe next time I will stop being so lazy and get a spot at a better salon. read more

Cheapest salon in the area and highly recommended by a close friend. This place does a superb job with men's haircuts in the Marina and I couldn't find a better place after trying nearby salons. The taper is clean and I always feel great coming out afterwards. Huge thumbs up to place, give this place a shot if you're in the Marina! read more

I've been going here for almost 10 years and I won't go to any other barber. The prices did recently go up, but only to $20 from $19 which is still pretty good in SF for a quality haircut. It's a fun neighborhood place, they remember your name, work fast and are always smiling. Highly recommend. read more
