Took our 11yr old daughter in to get some layers in her hair, while visiting in town. My apologies but I don't remember the hair stylists name, but she was fantastic. Back, left booth at the end. She did a great job in cutting our daughter's hair. Very friendly and talkative. The smile on our daughter's hair post cut, was priceless. What a great place. Everyone was friendly. Nice small little waiting area with cold drinks for a donation. A game, books... I could go on and on but I will spare you all the novel. Thank you Sunset Clips! We will be back. read more

Let me just say, Whitney B. is AMAZING! I cannot recommend her enough. I showed up for the first time wanting to make a big change and was a bit nervous and Whitney took the time to listen to every detail, reassure me, hype me up and NAILED everything! She did amazing with my cut/color and was incredibly sweet and kind as a person. She even listened and followed all the military regulations that my hair has to follow to a T. My hair came out so good that when I got home, my roommate immediately booked with her! So if you're looking for an amazing stylist, book with Whitney!!! You will notttt regret it:)) read more

Sunset Clipps - Hair Salons Near Me - San Diego, California

We're very lucky to have Sunset Clips here--a vestige of "classic OB" with a relaxing, unpretentious ambiance, good tunes, and good people running the show. I just got my ears lowered by Kelly (name?) who's an absolute gem and a true OB spirit. I've also had trims from Kris, who's equally talented and nice. And years ago randomly had a convo with the owner atop a local brewery, which I haven't forgotten all these years later. Suffice to say, this is a place where you want to spend your money. Oh, and you'll leave looking great too. Thanks crew! read more

Very professional, clean, always the same gray cut every time family atmosphere barbershop

This is the best place for a men's hair cut that I have found in San Diego! (And I have been to a lot of places ) Both waiting areas are ideal with an ocean breeze. The outside area is spacious the inside is cozy. Holly is great and will cut your hair exactly as you describe or show her. I've been stoked with the last 3 cuts she's given me. The first two I described and she did not disappoint and the last cut she matched the picture I showed her perfectly with great suggestions for the portions of the hair cut not shown in the picture. I couldn't be happier with finding this place. I'm sure all the stylist that work there are great but if you're not quite sure what you want or appreciate a chill professional vibe she's your girl! read more

Holly is so so so nice and did an amazing job!!! Great spot and so affordable. I'll be back!

My husband and I have been going here for at least a year. It's a simple no nonsense place with friendly owner and stylists. They're up front on pricing and don't try talking you into extras. My usual stylist Holly even recommended my continuing to do my own coloring (she does some highlights once a year). Very chill place which we like. read more

Nice good place. Did exactly what I asked them to with no issues. Hard to find a good spot for hair. But this might be just the one!

Great vibe and everyone can give you the best haircut! I am local and sometimes walk in and know I will leave looking fabulous ;)

I had a great time here, everyone who was working, as well as my hair dresser that i had just met that day, was so amazing and talkative. I felt so comfortable here and my hair looked so amazing afterwards, exactly what i wanted ! read more

Great place!!! Good vibes If you need a haircut and you're in OB that's the place to be good people good service highly recommend it

Love Kelli B! Great stylist, flex hours, and always a nice visit with her positive energy

Chill vibe. Great service and cool people. Best in SD. ________________________________

First time was today, called and got an appointment with Kellie. She did a killer job, speedy, and had a great time talking to her. Will go again! read more

Good, cheap haircuts. Cool vibe. Nice folks. Cash only. I've gone to a different person there each time: all good.

I have lived here in ocean beach as a college student for almost 2 years now, it took me a while to find a place that I can rely on... then I found sunset Clipps!! Kersten has been my go to to get highlights and I have walked away being satisfied everytime! It being located so close to the beach brings a sweet cool vibe to the environment . Every stylist has been amazing to me!! Everyone is so nice and welcoming, it almost feels like home when I go visit :) read more

Sunset Clipps - My first time getting highlights with Kersten! Had so much fun!!! - Hair Salons Near Me - San Diego, California

See all

Nice place gave it three shots here left twice with razor burn from clippers on back of neck from either old clippers or dirty ones. So time to find a new barber, and hopefully they know how to cut hair without asking me what's your number for the clipper, your the barber figure it out. Nice place but not for me. read more

Sunset Clipps - Back of neck - Hair Salons Near Me - San Diego, California

Cute little beach side salon. Pet friendly. Parking might be a challenge but I found free curbside parking on Santa Monica across from the church where there is less traffic. Worked with Kerstan who was a doll. Wash and blow dry pro- she had my flat hair full of body and silky shine! Will def be back to see Kerstan for more great conversation and fresh hair! read more

Jason is the embodiment of OB laid-back ethos. And he has an effortless way of bringing people together and effortlessly snipping away like Edward Scissorhands without you realizing you're getting an amazing haircut while all you're focused on is shooting the breeze with a really fun guy who makes you feel happy and relaxed. I always come away feeling good. Then I take a dip in the ocean 5i rinse off.. Yeah!! A jewel in the greatest town in San Diego. read more

My OB neighbor Kellie does a phenomenal job! I've been cutting my own hair for years and finally went to her and I love, love, love my hair and layers. Go check her out. She's the best!!! read more

Holly is the only hair dresser I've returned to since moving here in 2017. Prices are really reasonable- even for women- and she's great at doing whatever you ask her to do. The place isn't stuffy or "high end" but that's not a bad thing. Parking can be a bit of a pain, but that's just part of OB. My cut isn't too complicated, but my hair can be and Holly did a good job. I trust her enough at this point that I might just come back for simple highlights- The rest of the staff all seemed just as nice, and very accommodating for walk-ins. It's much more family friendly than most of the salons I've gone to in the past, which is a testament to the affordability. Like I said- she's the only person I've allowed to cut my hair more than once since we moved to San Diego. read more

I got a haircut and love it. Wonderful cut. Shop comfortable. I recommend this shop. And very fair prices

Quick and simple haircut. Kellie did a good job and made sure to ask me what I wanted for my hair. I have long curly thick hair so it was a surprise to have a hairstylist know my hair type. Make sure to have cash on hand read more

Great service from Kelli today. First time I had visited indoors here, as was an outdoor COVID customer early in the season. My long hair needed a proper trim. Cute, cozy salon right in OB by the library. Appt made online was easy. Excellent service. Lots of 'hair tips' & wisdom. Great price! Will come again read more

Sunset Clipps - Fun decor in waiting area - Hair Salons Near Me - San Diego, California

I found this place online and called 5 minutes after they opened for the day to book an appointment. They were able to get me in that same day in 2 hours, which was awesome! After arriving at the shop and waiting only 5-10 minutes, Eric took me in. He asked me what I wanted and I told him specifically what I was looking for. After that, he locked in for the next 30-40 minutes and took his time to cut my hair in great detail. I never had someone cut my hair in as much detail as Eric did, and I could tell he was taking his time to make sure he did his best. I was very satisfied with my haircut! The only reason why I didn't give 5 stars was because I left the shop with hair all over my face, neck, and shirt. Not a big deal, but it did require me to clean up upon arriving at home. read more

I am always apprehensive to get a haircut at new places as I typically only get my hair done by my best friend in New York but your girl was in need. It had been since August. Kelly was not only a sweetheart but did a great job. I have long hair and all my layers were grown out. She gave me layers and a beautiful angel around my face. She sent me off with a serum of jojoba and argon oil with lavender and rosemary. I feel so much better and my hair is light, pretty and smells friggin' fantastic. So happy I chose to make an appointment and it was super affordable. Highly recommend read more

So rude. Grouchy ass people. Called and asked about walk ins and the lady hung up on me. What the hell. Call back and a gentlemen answered unenthusiastically like it was a burden that I was asking for a cut. Ill take my business elsewhere cause these people definitely don't deserve it. read more

Awesome shop, catchy name, great vibes. Jason cuts some good hair and knows how to make you feel like an old friend. Always asks what the cut is going to be rather than just going to work, always a plus - but shocking more that he probably does remember every cut for all his clients. Great location on the corner, and always parking nearby. If not right out front, just park down the street, enjoy a stroll, grab a coffee, come in and chill. Comfy seats in the waiting area make you feel like you're at your buddy's house just waiting to go hang out. I may be more of a Jude Law on top nowadays versus the ol' Russell Brand, but I never look like an Andy Dick when I'm walking out of Sunset Clipps. 10/10 shear madness would buzz through again read more

I walked in with gray roots and brown drab hair. Walked out looking amazing. I Loved my cut and color by Jessica. I would definitely recommend her. read more

Love this place! Cool owner and great staff. I have very long hair and rarely trust anyone to add highlights/bleach but Holly is an absolute haircut & balayage queen! When she's not available Kelli is my next haircut queen. I hope those 2 girls are there for a long time! read more

Never have I ever left the salon with soggy wet hair til I went to this place. I would expect that from a barber or a $20 haircut place. Paying more tha $60 for a haircut I would assume it would include a haircut with wash and blow dry but they wanted to charge an extra $25 for a quick blow dry! Left the salon with decent haircut but wasn't able to see the actual style until it airdried which by that time I had already left the salon. I wish I had a better experience, I was so excited to try out a new place since the reviews were so wonderful. Sorry but I don't be back. read more

Yet another great experience with Danielle!!! I received non stop compliments last on how great my hair looked after she cleaned up my layers; today is light and fluffy and feels so soft! It's a cool environment, good music, great prices and she doesn't upsell, rather she sells what's going to be best for her client! Can't wait to have her dye and do more! 10 stars!!! read more

Sunset Clipps - Danielle is just awesome!!! - Hair Salons Near Me - San Diego, California

Today I went there for a hair cut and Holy was so kind and amazing. Also, she has a adorable dog named Pikachu. About the price, super affordable for a high quality service! Way to go!! read more

Sunset Clipps - Cut by Holy! - Hair Salons Near Me - San Diego, California

Been in OB for nearly a decade, but somehow never got the coif coiffed here until today. Jessica was great and helped me decide what I wanted, and was speedy about delivering it without rushing. Super happy about the fresh cut, will be back. read more

Nice employees. Went in for a trim and for a bang trim. My bangs were cut at a weird angle, making them uneven (one side is shorter than the other). Can't tell when you swipe them to the side, but if I try to wear them how they're supposed to be Looks like my 2 year old did it for me. Very uneven. read more

The first time I went in here, I got a haircut by Kelly and she was amazing. Again this time I went in and she amazed me with how she was patient with a crying toddler who needed a haircut because of non purposeful dread that was forming. Cut the kids' hair while he was screaming in moms' lap. However, when I walked in, the woman was waiting for her child's turn to get his haircut and was being panhandled inside by a nomadic individual who was white. I myself am half black and half white. As I walked in, a man named Michael who was in the middle of cutting someone's hair, walked up to me, ignoring the panhandler, and said to me "can I help you" while standing pretty much in my face. I almost walked out right then, but needed a haircut so stayed hoping for Kelly's chair to come open. Instead a guy with an appointment came in and took her chair. As Michael finished his haircut, he proceeded to clean the hair up, and it was almost 10 minutes of waiting until he finally said I could get in his chair, and that he thought Kelly's chair was going to be open (to this I say yea right). I pointed out the elephant in the room and told him straight up that he made me wait because I am black and I laughed with disdain. He proceeded to state that his father was racist, and that his son was probably less prejudiced than Michael was. He said that he was prejudiced against white supremacists and believed the stereotype that all Asians can't drive. He kept on in saying there was one black kid at his high school growing up (he's in his 60's), and that the guy was an athlete. He stereotyped that the only reason he would want to be black is for their athleticism. I told him that if he was exposed to persons of color personally, he might learn about them and their culture, and potentially lose his prejudices. The haircut was worth maybe a Supercuts $12 but not the $20 and $4 tip I gave him. He seemed to appreciate the convo and the "cash" as he said, but he was ignorant about how he treated me, which is why this yelp review, and I will make it a point to go back in and tell Kelly about what I experienced, since I stay in OB. Wake up and get to know peeps who don't look like you please, otherwise this white supremacy and or BS facade of domination will continue to pervade the human race. read more
