I took my infant/ toddler one afternoon about a month ago. The person who cut his hair (a younger male on the left side a few booths in) left it uneven on the sides by his ear and neck, I had to tell him a few times to please cut it here and there.

Not it's growing out more uneven in the front.
He did offer me if I needed a cape since my toddler sat with me. He also asked me if there was anything else I wanted him to fix.

He did offer me to help me with him while I reached in my wallet and said "have a nice day"

I was shocked that he left him the way he did.

It was strange service overall.

Boss Man at the first chair hooked it up. I was in town for work. First time getting a cut in California. I got a recommendation from an employee (shout out to Mr. Williams). I showed up early, the shop was clean, all the other barbers were immediately accommodating and friendly. Everyone who walked out of there had a smile on their face and a charp cut. Plus, since it's located inside the mall, I conveniently stopped for a quick dinner. Excellent experience. I'll definitely be back when I'm in town.

Don’t think I’ll be bring my son back here for haircuts. I’ve been coming here off and on for 5 years (needless to say not often but whenever I’m in San Diego) the last time I was at this barber shop before today was in August of this year (my husband and son come here) so I know haircuts are $30. Anyways when my son was done with his haircut I asked the price (the barber z_cuts his chair is the second to last chair at the entrance to the right) said it was $35 ok I tip anyways and already planned on tipping $10 but since he automatically added $5 I wasn’t. I handed him a $100 and he starts looking around stupidly holding it up not saying anything to anyone he’s holding it up to. So I’m irritated so I just say give me $60 back he immediately pulls out his wallet that has plenty of cash in it to hand me $60 back. Like dude come on who did you think you were playing? Anyways, I gracefully walked out with my son because karma always comes back around. I’ll just be taking my son elsewhere whenever we come in town.

Why waste your money for terrible service.

Pricing would be great if the service was even good. Each barber in here seems like they are just barely learning how to cut hair. It doesn’t seem like anyone here has any service. The business is open though because people are too afraid to tell their barber “ no that’s not what i asked for. ”

You tell these barbers what haircut you’d like and then they turn around and cut it how they want it. It’s incredible how ignorant they can be and it seems that anyone who holds a pair of clippers can just want in and start cutting hair.

Go to an actual licensed course to learn this trade instead of claiming you taught yourself and then messing up someone’s hair. Nothing is a big deal until it’s done to you, because I know these barbers would be hurt if they got the service they provide.

Go to the barbershop in national city on the mile of cars for THE BEST service with excellent pricing.

Im the type of male that gets a haircut twice a week, I tend to shop at this mall frequently, I stumbled across this barber shop about 9 months ago (I wish I would've seen it sooner) I gave it a try and I was amazed at the amount of talent that is there! You can find about 4-7 barbers ready to cut any type of hair you might have, with many of them having awards for competing in best fades here in San Diego. They have personal
Booking with a direct barber or if you wait in line they have a service system where your about waiting 5-20 min at the most for your turn I personally have kilo and Cinthia fade me up they are my go to barbers, always great vibes and great service you can't beat it while you shop for an outfit you get a cut, thanks a lot!

Price for a fade is $35, but they charged me $45, saying that $35 price its an old price, and they still wanted tip. They need better equipment, it felt that they were pulling my hair, instead of cutting. My first and last time here. Dont come to this barber shop.

Very friendly and approachable people with good prices that reflect the quality of the haircut. Staff knows how to work with thick Latino hair. Not going to find anyone cheaper that does 10/10 fades. Honestly I went in looking like a bum and now I feel hot af, about to act up and have a city girl summer.

Got my hair butchered for $30. I showed pictures of me with my regular haircut and ended up with a different one. The back of my head was cut way too high almost to the top of my head. This is the second time I’ve gotten my haircut from this place and both time they failed to deliver and ruined my hair real bad. When it came to pay i gave my card to the barber but was told only cash and pointed to a sign “cash only” near the ceiling by the door. He told me to used the ATM in the back of the shop with a $3 charge. So yeah $33 (or more if my bank charges me other fees) for a messed up haircut. Thanks again and there would be no third time.

Took my son in for a haircut on a Monday. It was quick with lots of barbers to pick from. Most places close on a Monday

No customer service. I was given grief for not knowing what clip size I wanted for the sides. He didn’t talk to me the rest of the time. If you are looking for a barber to help you get a new look or just wanna try something new. DO NOT COME HERE!

Took my grandson for a hair, I asked specifically to not cut so much off the top but the barber did what they wanted. I was disappointed. Hence, my 3 star rating.

Worst place ever don't come here! I need to contact their main office they made us wait for 3 hours and we ended up walking away we came to check in at 3 pm6pm comes they still kept us waiting and told us we are next on the list! Few people came in and they took them instead. They had enough man power which was 4 employees one of them just kept texting while the other took a customer without appointment bcuz their buddies! One was talking longer than an hour to cut hair. Meanwhile I've noticed they keep insisting that they are taking cash only kinda fishy this is the only barbershop in the whole US that takes cash only
