One of my Yelp friends told me about, though didn't necessarily recommend, this barber shop as a cheaper option than the one I had been eyeing. As long as I've been on Yelp, I've always found it difficult to choose barbers on Yelp to the point where I experience analysis paralysis when confronted with many a choice. The first barber, which I had been to before, now charges $20 for a men's haircut, but this place charges $15, though I didn't find out until I actually got there. I tried calling at first, but nobody picked up, and the automated voice messaging system informed me they had not set up a mailbox for voicemail. I tried calling again a minute later, but it went straight to that same automated voice messaging system telling me the exact same thing. I was already planning to pick up coffee not too far from the area, so I figured I'd give this place a try if I was already heading in that direction. Sina Hair Design is located on the north side of Anaheim St between Orizaba and Gladys. There's a small lot just to the west of the barber shop that can hold about 15 cars tops, but be forewarned that lot is pretty narrow. So narrow that I almost feared I'd bump into another car, either while driving between the stalls or by backing my car out of one. If this is enough to deter you from parking there, another plausible alternative would be to park at Orizaba Park just a few hundred feet north as there's a long parking lot on the south side of that park. When I came in, I didn't see a menu that showed prices, but one of the stylists greeted me shortly after entry. I asked her how much a men's haircut would cost, and she said $15. The language barrier almost made me think she said five-oh instead of one-five, so I asked for clarification, though she joked that for me, it'd be five-oh. She was friendly otherwise, but not sure what to make of that first impression. A male barber then came from the back to serve me. I told him what I usually get from other barber shops, and he got my drift. And off he went to cut my hair. There are four chairs on either side of the front door for customers waiting, but one of the customers was actually sitting at one of the barber chairs, waiting for his turn. He must be a regular at the shop because when it was his turn, he recommended I get a "line" for my cut, which I wasn't really sure what it meant, but the stylist who originally greeted me showed me by pointing to a photo on a sign in the near corner. I went for it, thinking I wouldn't really have anything to lose at this point. The male stylist that cut my hair was a bit slower than what I'm used to. I spent a total of 30 minutes in the shop, about 10 minutes longer than if I had gone to the first barber shop on my mind. I thought he did a fine job at cutting my hair, but I do remember that when he used a brush on my face, I caught a glimpse of the bristles and didn't feel *that* comfortable knowing the brush had to have been used on other customers' faces. When it came time to pay, I noticed I only had a $20 bill, a $5 bill, and a few $1 bills. I really should have asked for change beforehand at a different business because after handing him my $20 bill, I asked if there was change, but he said no albeit in a nice way. I had no other choice but to let him keep the $5 as tip; I just deduct an additional star in my rating in exchange for such incredulously unsensible logic of not having change despite being a cash only shop. The customer who suggested I get a "line" for my haircut bragged about how he was banned from a nearby place because he got in a fight. He also mentioned something about fake IDs. That might be a tell of Sina's clientele, and yes, I meant to rhyme here. Luckily, he behaved just fine during my visit. Hard to say when's the next time I'll be back. It's a little farther and in a part of town I don't go to or even pass by very often. If I happen to be nearby, and I have exact change, I'd definitely be open to a return visit; otherwise, I'll stick to the one closer to me or continue on with my search. read more

They are amazing! My son is autistic and hates haircuts! They made it work, even if it took 3 people to help!

I've visited this salon occasionally and haven't had any issues with pricing, but I've noticed they don't really accommodate men with longer hair well. I have specific preferences for my haircut, especially since my hair is long, but it often feels like they're not on the same page and sometimes hear complaints about it from others in the shop. Not the best experience for longer hair, so I probably wouldn't recommend if you're in that category. read more

Best haircut in California! 100% recommend! Ask for Lisa or Chheng! The story isn't the nicest spot but the haircuts are A+

My husband of 17 yrs has always been picky about who cuts his hair. About 10 yrs ago or so a friend from his work recommended this place to him. It's a little out of our way to go but very worth it. We try to arrive as soon as they open bc they tend to have a lot of clientele. I could see why. I've even cut my hair at this barbershop. Women are fast and friendly although I suggest not to go on a Friday afternoon bc they tend to be their busiest. Overall a great place read more

A caution to women. This is not a hair salon it is a barbershop. If you are a man and you want your hair buzzed short it is perfect. I went in because we own a shop around the corner and we believe in keeping our money local and supporting small businesses. I had long hair all one length and just wanted to split ends trimmed. When I went in the woman offered me a book of hairstyles. I said no thank you I just want the ends trimmed. When I sat down in the chair I said please just trim the split ends off of my long hair, she said "I give you style". In the end she did not listen to me. Before I knew it she was putting layers in the back of my hair in some places cutting over 6 inches off. I was devastated and in tears. My hair is ruined and it will take more than two years to grow back the Lankes she cut off and get it all even again. When I was in tears and I told her she did not do what I asked she simply kept saying "I give you style I give you style". Clearly not being the same culture or race and the communication has led to my tragedy. And it was clear that she had no regret or empathy for me. read more

It says they open at 9am. Waited for 30 mins still wasn't open. Very unprofessional. I would give them a one star, but they do a pretty good job. I would actually give em a 5 star if they hadn't made my ass wait and open on time. read more

First time there today. I'm really picky about who cuts my hair so I usually drive an hour to my long time barber. I woke up feeling brave and decided to give them a try. I've done this before with bad results but not today. The ladies here are really nice, fast, and do a great job! I'll definitely be going back. FYI: I rock an old school combover/ pomp with a fade. Very traditional cut that not everyone does right. read more

Great salon & barber shop, I get my haircut here every two weeks and it's awesome. Affordable pricing is perfect for those like me who get their haircut 2 or 3 times a month. If I went to sport clips, I'd spend 3 times as much. Thanks for making this my favorite spot to get my haircut. read more

I don't cut my hair often. I went from buzz to a comb over. Felt a little lost when I found a great barber, but he moved back. So I was on the hunt. My friend told me about this spot, and the lady who cut my hair did a great job. Your line - up won't be as sharp if you went to a younger barber\ american spot, but for a small spot, it gets the job done. Simple and straight to the point. If you want a specific cut, tell them. Parking in the back lot. Cash only for 10$ cut + tip. read more

If I could rate this place a negative star I would. I went here for the first time on Sunday. Well I guess they close at three and I got there around 2. They had two clients. One lady asked how many were getting a haircut and it was just me. She said okay because we close at three and we have more work. She could've told me to come back another day. However, instead of doing that another lady attended me and rushed through it. I was so scared but assumed everything was fine. I later looked again to find that my hair was longer on one side than the other. DO NOT GO HERE. THEY WILL RUIN YOUR LIFE LIKE THEH RUINED MINE. read more
