Went in for the first time had a good experience Tim is really fast and does the job. Happy with my haircut will definitely recommend and would return for future haircuts read more

My son used to dread haircuts--it was like a punishment for him. That all changed when we met Tim! Tim has a cozy barbershop near Japantown and is a master of the latest boys' and men's styles. He'll have you in and out in what feels like 5 minutes. He's confident, precise, and no-nonsense with the clippers, knowing exactly how to cut hair. We've visited several times, and there's usually a 15-20 minute wait. Once, on a Sunday afternoon, every seat was filled with people eagerly waiting for a cut. Tim's popularity is well-earned! Now, my son is a huge fan, encouraging his dad and others to give Tim a try. Tim is fantastic! read more

My 4 year old son and I have been coming for over 2 years. Quality fade and no expensive barbershop price. Kid friendly as well. Genuine guy. Highly recommend Tim. read more

First I waited around 20 minutes for on the barber chair, didn't even get the haircut I wanted and it was 35 bucks, never come here if you have curly hair. read more

I'd give this place 5 stars if the wait wasn't an hour long. Tim cuts hair really good, but good luck coming at the right time. Hire more barbers if you cannot handle the customer load. read more

My hair got cut. It was $35. This place is absolutely disgusting inside. They don't sweep or clean. There is months old hair on every surface. The clippers look ancient. Not, 1970s classic ancient... Like... 2012 ancient. And unclean. My sideburns are uneven. The sanitizing bottle is gross and covered with hair and old shampoo. Should tell you. Sketchy payment system. I entered the phone number correctly but it went to someone else and they demanded I pay again. So I paid double to sit in filth and my hair is way shorter than I asked. If I spoke Vietnamese, I guess I could've explained it. My fault for coming here. read more

I went in and asked if they could cut my hair half length and after the cut my hair was way shorter than half and when I asked the barber he said "my clippers are not long enough to only cut it half length so I just cut more" horrible service like are you serious why didn't you say something at the beginning or middle or end? I had to ask read more

I made a same day appointment at Tim's since my usual barber was booked solid for 2 weeks, and he was able to squeeze me that evening. When I arrived, I had to wait about 15 minutes, but he apologized and said it was others who showed up late to their appointments that backed his whole schedule up by 10-15 minutes. He acknowledged the wait, and it wasn't too long, so no biggie. I showed him a photo of what I wanted since it was my first time in. Not only did he give me exactly what I wanted, but he faded me up in 15-20 minutes max. It wasn't rushed-- he told me he's been cutting hair for 20ish years so he has it down to a science. He gave me what my usual barber gives me in half the time and $10 cheaper. I hate cheating on my regular barber, but I think I might have found a solid replacement. My only minor gripe is I wish they had online appointments, as it's call-in only. read more

Tim’s Barbershop - Barbers Near Me - San Jose, California

Been coming for years! I've moved around the Bay Area the last 10 years, DT SF, Alameda, RWC, Palo Alto, San Jose and I'm still coming to see Tim on a regular. I would travel down from east bay and downtown to make sure I got a cut I can trust. Tim is talented, can cut to your specific asks, super fast (getting you in and out), thorough from the shave to the fade to the trim and very precious, always bumping heat and brings good energy during your sit down. If you don't have any appointment, be prepared to wait but then again, I'd rather wait if busy, than have the shops that turn you away when no one is waiting. Not Tim, he'll have you sit and take you as soon as he can. A must try barber if you looking to get cleaned up! read more

Tim's barbershop is great for three reasons: - They are quick - the haircuts are great quality - prices are good. I'm very picky with my haircuts. So, I was surprised when Tim and his partner hit all my marks. Please note that this barbershop works like a factory line. Tim's partner, Gina, does the initial line up and Tim comes in with the fading. This one two punch will have you feeling like new person! Give this place a shot. You won't be disappointed. P.S. ask for the hot sauce! read more

Been twice now.my new spot beard trim excellent as well as fade.walk time only 15 min read more

Tim’s Barbershop - Fresh cut and beard trim - Barbers Near Me - San Jose, California

I've gotten better haircuts for 12 bucks. I paid this dude $40 to ruin my hair. Seriously, he may as well have taken a dump on my head. I was so depressed after, when I got home, I swore to my gf that I would never get another haircut. I usually get my haircut every 2 weeks, but I'm so traumatized I haven't gotten one in 4 weeks, and I don't currently plan to. I gave it a couple of days to see if I could get used to it. Alas, it is unsightly. I politely messaged him to request a refund, which he ignored. I messaged him privately again, letting him know I did not want to post a bad review. He ignored me again. So, not only should he not be allowed near a pair of scissors, EVER, but overall he's just very unprofessional. Seriously, I wouldn't hire him to do a $12 haircut; where does he get off charging so much for such shoddy work? May god have mercy on his soul. read more

Tim’s Barbershop - Before, it was as simple as slapping some pomade in it; sleek in minutes. Now matter how long I spend styling it I'm always embarrassed. - Barbers Near Me - San Jose, California

Been getting cut by Tim for over 12 years. He's always taken care of me and left me looking clean. He's got great energy and talent. Definitely recommend read more

The only guy there came out 5 mins after my appointment time and rushed my beard trim. My sideburns were uneven and I had to line them up myself, which was annoying to say the least. read more

First time there was amazing. Second time through Tim rushed through my haircut. He accepts zelle!

Tim's barbershop just opened up close by and I decided to check it out. Looks like Tim and his partner came from another barbershop close by and it's a welcomed addition to this area. Before Tim arrived, it was a small sandwich deli that wasn't gaining much traction in the district. Overall, it was a great experience today - I had Tim cut my hair. It was quick and clean - just as it should be. There were a number of folks waiting for a cut and a lot of happy customers. The vibe in there is energetic and feels like home as the music and the sound of the TVs are feeding into the auto body shop vibe. I'll definitely be coming back! I've also been to Taylor St barbershop and Kingsley's barbershop before in the past and I must say that this spot is worth a shot. Welcome to the neighborhood! read more

Walked in with my husband who wanted a fade and beard trim. Only waited about 5 minutes. Tim was playing awesome music and was so fast! He looked really passionate about his craft as he worked on my husband's hair. It turned out great! Will be returning. read more

GO TO TIMS!!! I didn't have an appointment and there were 4 ahead of me. I was seen in less than 10 minutes. This barber shop gave me the best cut I've ever had and it was finished so fast!!! I will never go anywhere else again!!! read more

I live up the street and decided to go for a local business for my son's cut. The guy had some inexperienced guy mess up my sons hair and the regular had to come in a fix it. Total was $30 for a fade. No worth the time or hassle. Great Clips did a better job for half the cost. read more

Came in with no appointment which was a plus , expect for the guy who cut my hair. Tommy was really chill at first but he really rushed through the cut causing really bad razor burns. Sitting through the process , he just kept hitting the blade onto my skin which is honestly a disappointment. No one wasn't to come out with no irritated bumps. Plus side : does have Zelle / accepts cash. read more

Tim’s Barbershop - One day after I got a hair cut - Barbers Near Me - San Jose, California

I came to this barber shop and I liked the vibe of having a good hangout place while I wait for my haircut. They really make you feel welcomed and John does a great job cutting my hair. read more

Been going to Gina for years. She's cutting hair at this place now and is legit. She only cuts guys hair and specializes in fades. She probably has the most reasonable price as well. read more

Tim is the Best barber in SJ. 10+year customer. Fastest clean fades you'll see. Best to book appointment or you'll probably wait a solid 1-2 even 3 hours if you just walk in to wait. But well worth the time for sure. read more

Tim’s Barbershop - The man the myth the legend. Tim - Barbers Near Me - San Jose, California

Hit up Tim's barbershop!! Best fades in SJ. Been coming to him for 17yrs quality hasn't changed.

Was recommended this place from a friend. The haircut was great and they even trimmed my beard and mustache. Definitely would come again. The price unbeatable. Ive been to places that would charge 3-4 times as much. Thanks to them ill be looking sharp for my wedding read more

I've never had a haircut faster in my life. It's a two-person job. Precut, then the final touches. For my first time, I was given a phenomenal haircut. Even my family said so. I'll definitely will be back. read more

Tim is the man! I've been a customer of this guy for +10 yrs, and for a reason. I've lived all around the bay, and the one time my ass was too lazy to drive down... Boi did I regret it. Needles to say I paid for a F*ed up hair cut at an unnamed shop, only to drive may ass immediately after down to Tim's. Luckily he was able to selvage what was left. Any man knows there are three things you don't cheat on. The wife, Taxes, and your barber! No matter where I live I'll make my way down to Tim's, or no cut until I can. Cleanest/tightest fades around. Place is always packed, highly recommend you do yourself a favor and make an appointment. If not you are in for a wait, + he always has tunes on with the tele on while you wait. read more

Tim gets you super clean 20-25min. Your best bet is to book an appointment. You can wait up until 2am for a haircut with no appointment.

Gina does a great job! She is great. The only reason why I'm giving it two stars is because the music is way too loud. I feel like I'm walking in a club. It's very annoying! Someone there needs to buy a set of AirPods. read more

Tim is the best in the business, I have been coming to Tim since I was a 13 and I'm 34 now. He is the fastest barber with skill I have ever came across. I have seen him grow from working in a shop to having his own shop. I would highly recommend Tim's barbershop to anyone. I recently moved 45 minutes away but still drive to Tim for my haircut. I will not let anyone touch my hair but Tim. If you want a fade, taper or line up Tim is your guy. read more

Well... I went here for a couple of haircuts so far and I don't like it here I set up appointments and he has me waiting there for 40 mins at the least. And I'm a teenager so people think that they can go before me but I've been waiting longer than they have they take advantage because of my age. The barber rushes the haircuts. read more

Great barber shop. Quality service professional and clean. Barber and his assistant took extra time and care and exhibited a high level of attention to detail. I am a satisfied customer. read more

When I was younger, me and my father would go to Tim all the time. He did mine and my dads hair really good. I don't go to Tim no more because I live a little bit far away from Tim's barbershop. But if I could've done anything to go to Tim's, I would. I recommend this barbershop so much. read more

Been going to Tim for many years he's the fastest barber and does the job just right. Will always go to Tim.

I literally just walked in for a haircut right now and the guy who was supposed to cut my hair walked out after eating lunch with no mask on, said "what's up bro you wanna fade?" I said "well I sorta want this", pointing to a picture of my the hair style I wanted but he wasn't paying attention at all. He said "so you want a mid fade?" I said "um sure" he didn't say anything after that. Then he walked back to where he came from and kept me waiting again. I just walked right out. He and the lady working there are hell rude. Don't go here. I walked over to another shop there are so many others to choose from right here alone read more
