From the moment I went into this place I knew it was special. My barber buddha was very nice and welcoming to me. I asked for a mid taper and he did not do a 10/10 but a 11/10. I recommend going to this barber shop any day of the week. ( Ps book it with Buddha ) read more

I'm not one to ruins someone's career over one instance but this is the most careless cut I've ever received. I asked for a simple fade with the grain since I have waves. I had so many patches in my hair after the cut it was ridiculous! I let her know it was for a family photo shoot and she happily sent me on my way after the cut knowing this was some of her worst work. I won't be returning but wanted to give anyone a heads up... if you're getting cut here make sure they have experience in cutting ethnic hair. Lesson learned read more

I was looking to try a new barber for my beard lineup. After reading reviews I gave Blanca a try. I am very happy I did. I received many compliments after my first beard trim with her. She listens to my requests and has the skills to make it happen. I've already been back for a 2nd trim. She is now my go to. read more

Had an appointment with Deja at 2:15 and she took me exactly on time! She was super friendly and we had many conversations throughout the appointment! She was very friendly and made sure she knew how to cut and style my hair since it's thinning. The haircut turned out amazing and I would highly recommend coming here! I would HIGHLY recommend getting your hair cut with her! read more

Great service easy walk in without much of a wait. Not great for my wife though who was unsatisfied.

Booked an appointment for 4:30p online which was accepted, i arrived at 4pm and the store was empty, yet i sat down and waited. Some guy came out and told me to wait outside. It's now 4:46p and nothing.. nobody showed up. I'm Unable to reach the barber Bianca or anyone for that matter. Hopefully i won't be charged.. since they take your credit card info and charge a late fee or a now show fee.... read more

Just got a fresh cut and I'm loving it! My hair is curly and difficult to work with but Deja really listened to what I wanted and nailed the look. The fade is smooth, the lines are crisp. Definitely coming back here next time. read more

Booked an appointment here for the first time today for 12:45pm. I arrived at 12:40pm and received no greeting at the door. The barber I had booked with, Blanca, was cutting a little kid and it was clear she had just started on him. A couple minutes later she disappeared into the back of the shop and returned about 5 minutes later. Blanca made no effort to notify me about the delay. At 12:56pm I had enough and left. It's disappointing to be met with such unprofessionalism, poor punctuality, and lack of courtesy. Do not tolerate a barber not meeting the bare minimum. read more

This must be the least productive Barbershop in the entire county of Santa Clara. I came in for a haircut and three barbers are working, each one seems to spend an endless time with each client, including chatting. Eventually, one of the barbers are free, but instead of taking customers he sits down and start texting on his phone. After waiting for over 30 minutes to get my haircut, I give up and go home. Be aware. Not a place to return to. read more

Blanca is the best barber she always goes above and beyond and I leave with my expectations, exceeded every single time. Thank you, Blanca and God Bless you! read more

VIP Barber Lounge - This is Blanca's work, an she did that! - Barbers Near Me - San Jose, California

First time visiting this barber shop, and it was great they did not disappoint at all. Shop had a very chill vibe to it, I greeted at their door told my barber would be with me shortly. I noticed that the barbers took pride and their work cause it showed when the clients would smile when they saw the final product. I had the same experience with Bianca, she did an amazing job at blending and fading my hair. I guess that's why they call it VIP Barber Lounge cause you get that VIP experience. read more

You would see a lot of reviews for Blanca; those are correct. Although she cut my hair the way she wanted not the way I asked but she did a perfect job and I am leaving a 5 star for here read more

My son had an appointment here with Cam & he did a great job! My son's hair is curly & thick so it can be challenging to work with. I showed him an inspiration picture & he executed the low taper fade exactly how the picture looked. He really took his time which I appreciate. Will definitely be back for my son's regular cuts. read more

I followed Blanca from her previous shop after the covid layoff. She is a well kept secret giving a full shave with blade and scalp treatment and massage. Also she does not rush through as many heads as possible she stays fully engaged in the present service. The shop is clean and organized. read more

Got a clean cut from Cam. I used to bartend downtown SJ and I had a spot I was loyal to and the place I've been going to recently is way overpriced. This spot is super reasonable and they take care of you. Will definitely be back read more

A friend recommended this spot when I was visiting fam in the Bay Area. It was nice to see the shop doing well and the barbers and the customers were all vibing with the music and all. I got Carlos who did a really good job on my hair cut and beard for over an hour. Great detail, asked questions from time to time and overall great conversation as well. He took Venmo which helped cause who has cash these days lol read more

This place is ridiculous. Literally called a day prior to see if they can cut my 3 year old son hair. Some girl got on the phone said no problem. Bet. So we took him in this morning at 11:00 was his appointment we get there a little earlier only to find out "oh I double booked". Common courtesy give the client a heads up so we can go elsewhere not the day of "oh can you wait an hour?" No absolutely not that's why we scheduled an appointment. It's not my baby's first cut either. Smh read more

I e been bringing my son here for a while now. He see's Julian for his cuts and is always pleased when done. Thank you Julian for always keeping my little guy fresh ! read more

Vip lounge is the place to go for a nice reliable cut. The barbers really provide a fun environment and my personal favorite Blanca has given me and my family great cuts for some time now. Fades, tapers, designs you name it she has stepped up to the challenge time and again. read more

VIP Barber Lounge - Taper on point, great conversation overall a 10/10 experience,Blanca provides a great convo and a great cut. - Barbers Near Me - San Jose, California

My long time barber Blanca recently moved shops and she landed at VIP. She landed at fresh joint! Every one In the shop seem to be very skilled and professional. Its good to see that they care about their clients. Not only that but they seem like well driven individual. Im definitely coming back! Thanks Blanca. read more

They do the standard fade. The place is pretty clean. If you don't mind listening to every other word f-bombs, you be ok with this business.

Blanca did a great job with my design and hair loved the outcome definitely recommend

Blanca has been cutting my son's hair for a couple of years now. He is 6 years old so she has been very patient during his cuts. She always has him looking clean! read more

I really wanted to like this place. Cool spot, chill atmosphere. Everyone was super polite and professional. Unfortunately the cut i got was less than sub-par. After 3 tries, I gave up and just asked to pay and leave. Unsalvageable, I buzzed my head the next day to at least be presentable. This was my experience. Your mileage may vary. read more

This is amazing skills! Thanks Devin for the crisp line up! He loves it! 6yr old dreams!!! read more

VIP Barber Lounge - Barbers Near Me - San Jose, California

Man this place is super unreliable. 3 times in a row I have booked appointments and been canceled while using their online system. Then when told to come and "walk in are welcome" you should expect to wait at least 2 -3 hours while they have open chairs and just sit around talking. They don't care and just say what ever but then have the nerve to have a late fee posted on their site for customers lol. Save you money and time and find a different joint read more

Bianca got them faders!! I'm picky with my hair. Been tryna find a barber and not have to drive downtown sj! So this is clutch!

Great shop atmosphere, but I have to shout out my sons Barbor Blanca.Her professionalism and attention to detail is excellent. Lines and blends are alway crispy and precise. She takes all forms of payment including Apple Pay which is very convenient for and very appreciated. I highly recommend this shop and Blanca especially!! read more

This place is excellent all the barbers be on point always leaving me looking fresh and on point then right after i get braided down by K.K and let me tell y'all she gets down on the braids i highly insist you make an appointment if you want your hair braided she knows what she is doing hands down this place has a great environment to it always enjoying my time there not once have i left disappointed read more

My barber is Blanca. I've been going to her for many years and what I love about her is how attentive she is to detail. Many barbers only car about how the hair cut looks not considering what looks best for their clients head , look and feel. Blanca knows how to give you the right hair cut for the right occasion. My only hesitation about this review is to make sure she still has time for me because of how awesome she is. Thank you Blanca for being so great read more

This place is legit!!,.. bunch of young barber dudes that really know their stuff.. and very clean establishment! I visited their new location in Blossom Hill for the first time. I walked in with no appointment, Fernando was quick to jump in and say "I can take care of you now"... I briefly showed him a picture of the haircut i was going for, and off he went.. 30 min later I ended up looking super fresh, and he also took care of reshaping my beard. After such a great experience, I decided to come back 2 weeks later just to get my beard line, this time I actually made an appoint through their we site... (super easy), a. This time Jose took care of me, just as Fernando, he also did a great job and fairly quickly..., what to say.. I've been looking for a good barber shop around my area for a while and a finally found it!! read more

i had gotten good cuts here before (hence 2 not 1 star) but this time swing and a miss. Julian cut it way too short despite being told explicitly to leave it long in some places. lines were all crooked. just buzzed it off. then said he could blend it better and cut more off. still uneven. bad. very bad. read more

My bf has been coming here for quite some time now since we can no longer afford going to a good friend of mines. He found Jaime(sorry if that's not your name. my bf just told me your name is jaime) by chance and has been very satisfied with his skills. He the guy in the back room on the second chair on the right hand side next to braids by kk. For $25, you cannot complain. That's such a steal for san jose prices. He's quick, precise, and very flexible with his hours. He even comes in on Monday's if needed. He's asked why we tip for much, but he deserves every ounce of it. He is hard working and just cuts my boyfriends hair the way I like it. He is very efficient and is able to do cuts in 30-40 minutes. read more

Decent spot aim for the men they do better haircuts not offense to the women but they cut hair and make your lines very wonky

Blanca is the real deal! My son has super curl hair and I was getting him his first hair cut at a actual barber shop instead of a salon haircut. My friends son has similar hair, so he recommended Blanca to me. I called her directly and set a appointment with her. When I arrived she was all smiles, which comforted me immediately. My son sat down for his consultation and I had a idea of the hair style I wanted but was sure exactly how to articulate it. Blanca took over at that point and knew exactly what hairstyle I wanted. His haircut came out amazing! I loved that she took her time and wasn't one of those barbers that rush through haircuts to squeeze as many people in as possible. She was very precise and technical, which showed me she was true professional. What was apparent was Blanca really loved what she was doing and it show with the finished product. My son loved his new look and can't wait to get back to the barbershop to get his fresh fade. I would definitely suggest asking for Blanca if you have kids that want to get a great hair from a true professional barber. read more
