When you walk in here and sit in Sandy's chair, you immediately feel relaxed. I guess it's because I've been going for a while and she knows exactly what I want as far as a cut. But it's the vibe that she creates, you can have a half hour conversation or you can just close your eyes and let her do what she does and almost meditate for a half an hour. She is so soft and gentle and yet has a great artistic touch if you're looking for a barber that's more than a barber. This is the place. read more

Barber Shop has moved to Salon next to BevMo! Tim & Sandy still in business. No signage to inform customers at the previous location ( across from Panera) due to Rady management policy. Seems unfair that Rady was requiring a sizeable increase in Rent and a major renovation of this iconic Barber Shop. Have been getting my hair cut their for greater than 20 years. Was originally a customer of Ted's until he retired. Tim does a great job! John read more

Went to listed address when they were listed as open - doors locked. Called and straight to voicemail. Possibly out of business?

They moved! But very close by the BevMo! Sandy and Tim are awesome!! Love their haircuts!

Tim is an amazing barber. I use to use him all the time when I lived in Solana Beach. He is great with the straight razor for shaves! Look for the sketch that corresponds to the painting. Tim knows the story. read more

Sandy gives a great haircut. Always looks good when you walk out as well as later. I drive a long way for it

I've been coming here for 3-4 years. The lady who works in the front and runs the salon is excellent. I have difficult hair to cut and she is extremely qualified to cut longer hair and short hair. The parking is easy and very convenient to walk in without an appointment. I highly recommend this barbershop. Before the barbershop I used to go to high end salons in Beverly Hills but decided to try out a barbershop when I moved down from LA. read more

My husband and i's super good friend was getting married and wanted to take him and his groomsman to get razor shaved! My husband had never done it and his hair is so coarse and thick that it normally grows back in about a day, or by the end of the day you can already see a shadow. For the wedding it was fun guy thing they did and I tagged along not to get shaved but just to hang out. They did a really good job and the guys made appointments so when we came there was only 2 people working and 4 guys so they were the only ones here. read more

You can tell right away when you're getting a good haircut if a barber is firm with the Clippers and uses them precisely. This guy was kind of just grazing lazily along my head with the Clippers . Older asian gentleman with longer hair. He didn't really want to listen to me but was just getting agitated by my request. I had to repeat over and over that I wanted to go higher on the fade and a short haircut on top but he just would not listen. This place has poor hair cutting skills for $23 I feel ripped off read more

I'm thoroughly pleased with either Ted or Sandi at Solana Beach Barber Shop. They're quick and talented. The locks can be shorn, without looking like a cue ball, for about $20 (including tip). I have had few experiences with the other barbers in the shop as I prefer Ted or Sandi. They are open on Sunday which is something you don't find too often. read more

I waited only 3-5 minutes. Sandi was my barber. She was terrific. My hair is very hard to cut because I have your typical Asian hair (i.e., very thick and very black, thus if you mess up, the mistakes are very easy to spot). It was clear to me that Sandi takes great pride in doing a thorough job. The straight razor shave of your sideburns and back was a nice finishing touch. I do think $18 is quite high. Then again, I did tip her $5 so I guess it was a $23 haircut in the end. But, I'll be going here regularly from now on. read more

Best haircut I've had in a long time. We got a whole wedding party trimmed up here and everyone looks A+.

I have taken my son here three times and this will be the last. We had Sandy today. I took a photo of my son's haircut. Not from a magazine but an actual photo of him with the cut. I gave her very clear instructions, more than once. But she absolutely failed to listen or even look at the photo properly. If you want a # 2 buzz cut all over go to Sandy. She hasn't a clue about cutting. I told her not to use the razor on the sides or top. She didn't listen I told her not to cut the fringe , it needs to be the longest, it's now so short it just sticks out. It's impossible to style. She tried to cover up her mistake. If I'd given no guidance, no photo, I'd perhaps understand but she really messed up. Tim and Wendy were much better but Sandy ... thank heavens hair grows but it'll take a while to grow out this very poor cut. . read more

Great barber shop. I've had 3 people cut my hair(hi fade comb over) and they always do a great job. Plenty of parking and usually no crazy lines. read more

I was coming in from out of town and I called about 10 minutes before they closed and Tim let me come in and gave me a haircut at 6:00 and stayed an extra half hour for me and cut my hair and did a terrific job. I even got a quick shoulder and head massage to go with it. He definitely went above and beyond for me and it was really appreciated. read more

Poor haircut, will be investing in a hat for the next few weeks. Don't risk it!

I highly recommend this barber shop as I've gone to some new sport themed barber shops in town. They were lacking in a tailored approach. I've been going to this venue for over 8 years and I've been very pleased. Please go see Sandy as she is very precise in her cut and is very thorough in her approach. read more

Great and quick haircut by Q. First time here and I loved it. Surprised by razor neck shave and then scalp, neck, and shoulder massage. I'll be back read more

This was the most awful haircut I have ever gotten. The woman who cut my hair sat me down and then proceeded to yell to her co-worker in another language during the entire first 15 minutes of my haircut, stopping cutting every time. She did not listen to what I told her to do to my hair whatsoever. I told her to keep the sideburns as long as they were, and right after yelling to her colleague, she proceeded to cut them right off. I told her to trim my hair in a way that allowed me to part it to the side, and she actually gave me a V line in my hair. Really just awful, and no attention given to my hair whatsoever. Do not go here if you have anywhere important to be in the next 6 weeks. read more

I had a very clean and quick cut from Tim, and would recommend him for future customers. I had haircuts with the other barbers and by far Tim does it the best. read more

All I had to do was show Sandy a picture of the haircut I wanted, and she was able to give me one even better than the original! It was one of the easiest and best looking haircuts I've ever gotten. read more

I usually go to Steve at Solana Beach Barbers down on the PCH, but they are closed on Sundays so I headed over here after reading some good reviews. I had an excellent experience here. My barber was meticulous and really took his time, almost 30 minutes, to give me just a trim. He neatly cut the sides and back as I asked, used the straight edge to clean up sideburns, around the ears, and on the neck and everywhere else that needed it. You could tell he cared about his job by the time and care he put into the cut. I won't hesitate to go back here again soon-meticulous cut, great attention to detail, excellent work. read more

I have been coming here for the last 20 years and I've never been disappointed with my haircut and not much is changed. That is because they already have a good thing going. Great haircuts, great service at an affordable price. I have tried many of the barbers that work here and they all do a great job, however Nick is by far my favorite. He does a great job will never disappoint. If your in the Solana area get a cut with these talented barbers. read more

I'm in from out of town for a wedding, and wanted to look good and get a straight razor shave for the first time in my life. The place I planned to go to was unavailable so I tried here. Normally I'd need an appointment, but as it was short notice and I was going to a wedding today they took me in. Got a nice shave and look good for the wedding. I appreciated them accommodating me on short notice. I was very pleased. read more

I really had a good experience with my haircut by Sandi. She was very efficient and skilled. I really liked my haircut.

Didn't know what to expect from this hidden barber shop within the shopping center. I was delightfully surprised by the fantastic job Lee did. He really went the extra mile making sure the cut was right and topped it off with a hot shave. Fantastic spot and moderately priced. Definitely will be back! read more

In my entire life, I never received such a quality haircut. My hair barber was Nick. His attention to details was completely unseen before. He really puts a lot of heart into his artwork. read more

If you are searching for a professional "Barber" who is a true throw back from the days when barbers were truly barbers... ask for Rob. Rob is no doubt one of if not the best professional barber in the area. You won't be disappointed. read more

Got a great haircut from Tim, I think it was. He used shaving cream and a straight razor at the end. It was a great cut. I really enjoyed it. read more

So... I just went in for my third haircut with Tim and for the third time in a row he did a great job! I've been bouncing around barber shops for the last couple years, but have finally found a spot I can stick with. TIm always takes his time, is very detail orientated and finishes with a great haircut. Many of the other barbers I have been to leave stray hairs, do not take to time to trim the sideburns or leave me with a cut that looks shaggy in a couple weeks. Not this place! read more

Took my 2-year-old son to get his haircut here today, and it was the first time he didn't scream the whole time. They were friendly and made him feel comfortable the whole time. The haircut is an adorable "boy" cut, which is exactly what I asked for. I have been to other haircut places, that are specifically just for kids, and they weren't friendly, he cried the whole time and they did just an ok job on his cut. I definitely will bring him back here next time. read more

Worst damn cut I've ever received... completely chopped the back when I asked to trim. Un even and crooked side burns... trimmed the right side of my head and not the left. I paid because I'm not an asshole BUT I've never been so pissed with a simple haircut. I'm never coming back to this shop again. read more

This place looks like an ordinary barber shop at first glance, but the service and quality is top tier. Wendy cut my hair, she is amazing at what she does. I always ask for here when I go in. read more

When I moved to San Diego in 2006 it wasn't long before I needed a haircut and was looking for a solid barber shop to suit my needs. I have extremely straight hair and I'm very particular about having a precise blending and layering from my short sides to the longer hair on top as a poor cut is very obvious. My experiences with the cookie cutter shops left much to be desired. I don't like choosing my cut from a picture or having to answer the "what number" do I want question. I'll tell you want I want and you figure out how to make it happen! It took a while, and many horrible cuts, but I finally made my way here and I will never go anywhere else. I moved to Carlsbad and gladly make the journey because Sandy is that good. In fact I would travel from ANYWHERE because she is so consistent. If you're a man's man who is not so comfortable going to some beauty salon and paying for decor you couldn't care less about, but wants a high quality cut, this is the place. The attention to detail is nice too. Since I hit my 40's recently, and hair seems to growing where it shouldn't so much (eyebrows and ears), Sandy always takes the time to trim any stragglers and keeps my A game on point. Yeah, they're that good! read more

I have two boys, ages 7 and 10. We had heard good things about this barber shop. Unfortunately, we did not have a good experience. If you have young boys, do NOT let Melissa cut their hair. While she did OK with my 10 year-old, my 7 year old received his worst haircut ever. She added layers throughout his one-length hair that just don't work. Plus, she did not seem to know how to chat well with children. read more
