Pineapples Barbershop

I needed a haircut somewhere near my uncle’s place so I went on Unilocal to find a barbershop near by. I stumbled across Pineapples and saw great reviews so I decided to check them out. When I went there they welcomed me I had to wait a little to get the next haircut. When it was my time Heriberto gave exactly what I wanted and I also had a nice conversation with him. The price for my cut is amazing ($ 16)and you should check them out!

Great place to relax and get cleaned up. Appointments are recommended so call ahead. I get my cut with CJ but all the barbers seem great and personable. The vibe is super chill with music playing butt not too loud

Finally made an account! (Originally reviewed on gf’s account)
I love this place and have been coming here since mid-​2015. Cuts made by appointment are a good deal at $ 16 but they take their time and don’t rush through cutting your hair.
I always go to CJ for my haircut. He takes his time figuring out how he’s going to cut it and explains what he thinks would be the best cut and the process to how he’s going to cut it. He cuts fades like a boss (no pun intended). He knows how to have a good conversation but doesn’t yap, and the other barbers seem to be similar in this regard. Because of all these reasons, I’ll definitely be coming here for some time to come

I stopped by this place for the first time on a Monday evening. I called in ahead of time and made an appointment for 6:30. Walked in and loved the vibe they had. Nothing fancy, but everything looked nice in there.
I got my cut by Liz. I love barbers that talk to you. Not just about which cut you’d like, but just about every day life conversations. She did a really great job with my cut and got me talking at the same time as well.
I’ll most likely ask for her next time as well since I had a really great experience my first time.
Just some information: $ 16 if you make an appointment & $ 20 for walk-​ins.
What more can you ask for? Great price, great staff, and open late!
I will definitely recommend this place to my friends.
Keep up the good work!

So far I’ve been here twice to get a cut and have not been disappointed. The staff here are super chill and welcoming. I haven’t gotten the chance to give the other barbers a try yet but Eddie has been cutting my hair and I am not disappointed prices in my opinion are very reasonable compared to others in the area at $ 16 a haircut. This place is on point with their time management so I’d definitely suggest to call in and make an appointment

I stumbled upon this place awhile back because many good shops aren’t opened after 9 – 6 corporate hours, so this is a big plus!
It’s not often I find a shop where I feel comfortable, treated well and get swagged out by a barber who maintains professionalism. The barbers here will make sure you are happy with your cut before you leave. They’ll even gladly make well thought out suggestions on what can look better on you. My head feels pampered with that fresh barbershop smell after every visit.
The pricing is very reasonable, perhaps a steal for the service you’re getting.

i’m korean with thick, coarse, straight hair. i’ve gone to a lot of different places around this area and paid all sorts of different prices but nobody has gotten it right like eddie does. i lived in ktown for a while too and i can tell u that eddie can teach all those korean hairstylists how to cut asian hair.

Best Barber Shop in the County, hands down. Incredible cuts, exceptional customer service, and a unique, positive, simple, laid back vibe that you can’t find anywhere else. The owner, C.J., knows how to run a shop the right way. Aside from the cuts, just the people alone will leave you wanting to come into the shop everyday… even if your hair hasn’t grown a quarter of an inch. The Barbers are the friendliest and most talented bunch of people you’ll ever meet, and C.J. has an infectious air of positivity and optimism about him that keeps the place runnin’ like magic. I’ve never left Pineapples without a huge smile and a fresh look, and I don’t think I ever will. Thank you for the great cuts, conversations, and laughs, Pineapples. This is how you run a business.

Been coming to see CJ (owner) since February 2015 – this guy is legit. Legit cuts, legit customer service. Appointments are $ 16, walk-​ins $ 20. This shop sells Suavecito products.
Heri, Dustin and Liz also cut here; while I stay loyal to CJ, I can tell you any one of the Pineapples crew know how to cut hair cool.

First timer here and had best haircut ever. Dustin was very pleasant to work with. He took his time and gave great opinions as what to try out. I never had a haircut where it felt like I just hung out with a bro. Time flew by and I had a great time. ¹⁰⁄₁₀ would Def come back and bring a case of beer.

I’m faded, faded, faded… my haircut that is.
I’ve been coming to Pineapples Barbershop since they’ve opened. Located in a small center with a liquor store, Hispanic Bar, and a laundry mat you cannot be more authentic of a barber shop than this.
CJ the owner, barber, and good friend is my go to guy for a fresh cut. He is a very talented barber that has put in countless hours to perfect his craft. The most important thing about this barber shop is that they take their time in making sure the customer is satisfied and walking out feeling like family.
They accept walk ins but I highly encourage making an appointment because they are VERY busy. The inside of the shop is very clean and tidy. The chairs are comfy and socially some of the best convos are to be had there.
They are a very affordable barber with great quality cuts and aren’t the hype barber shops that cost and arm and a leg to go to.
Be sure to grab your favorite hair product there after your cut. I use suavecito pomade firm hold and highly recommend it!
Mahalo CJ!

CJ & The Pineapples Crew are total pros.
The main thing you need to know is to make an appointment. Respect your time & theirs. The more you come, the more they will know exactly how you like your cut. Walk-​ins are there all the time, but even for your initial visit I recommend an appointment for a great experience.

The owner CJ cut my hair. It was a phenomenal haircut for a great price. CJ was laid back yet super knowledgeable and methodical about haircuts and the complexity that goes into designing a hairstyle for someone. Glad I found this place on Unilocal… I will definitely be coming back to get my hair cut by CJ.

Been coming here for almost a year. CJ is hands down the most skilled barber I have ever been to. He is very good at explaining how to «train» your hair and how to comb it. I have never had anyone else there cut my hair but I have brought my son, who is only 3yrs old, and he does not sit well for a long period of time, but all the other barbers have taken a shot at cutting his hair and I was very happy with the reults everytime. Very nice relaxed atmosphere. Feels like home, there new addition (shop dog) is super friendly. I had no problem leaving the dog and my child together to play in the shop while I had my haircut.

CJ is a nice guy and cuts great hair, really understands and is able to explain the cut meant for you. The dog he has in the shop is nice, just makes me a little uneasy.

Great haircut! Razor clean edges.
I walk in looking like sasquatch. I walk out looking like james bond.

This place is great. Tommy is the only person who cuts my hair after years of wasting money on bad haircuts.
Pineapples is kind of hidden but that’s what adds to how cool it is. Haircuts are not as expensive as other barbers but the quality is top notch.
I think Tuesday they have a discount so grab some tacos and a cut. I would tell everyone to go here and get their hair did. After you get a cut you’ll never go to another barber again. They could charge more but they don’t because not everyone can afford a 30 $ haircut once a month!
Very reliable go check them out

Great place for a cut and a shave. CJ and Tommy are both very skilled with the tools of their trade and the atmosphere is very welcoming and inviting for new customers as well as their regulars. They take their time to get every detail of your cut just right, down to the last single strand of hair that might have been missed.
It’s best to make an appointment but they’ll still take you as a walk in.

Nice work on the beard. Patient and meticulous service. Good tips on maintenance and which products to use.
Came in bushy and came out lookin «Proper»

Thanks CJ the BARBERian!

I chanced upon this place yesterday, Sep 2, 2014, after coming from the salon where this older Korean lady cuts my hair. I saw her almost every month and she has been cutting my hair for the last 5 years. Unfortunately, her store was closed although her car was there. She called me this morning saying a customer took her to dinner which is why the place was closed at 6:30PM.
Not a lot of barbers/​hair salons are open past 6pm or 7pm. So thanks to Unilocal,I was able to filter out those that are open ’til 8PM, and led me to this place down the same street, Euclid. It had great Unilocal reviews, although not many. After last night’s visit, I see why they had 5 stars, but being open for just a very short time, they haven’t garnered as many reviews as other places. But as busy as they were when I came in, despite being open for only 3 months, means they must be doing something right. And they were nice enough to let me come in even without the appointment. But that meant waiting almost an hour.
That hour-​long wait would’ve been so annoyingly boring at other places, but not here. CJ, the owner (who cut my hair) and Tommy were both very friendly and accommodating. With nothing to help me pass the time as my crappy iPhone 4S died on me the first 5 minutes I was here, I decided that this place was a barber shop, which just like the ancient Greeks did within their Polis, had become a public meeting place where men discuss ideas, philosophies, and most especially, gossip.
«Men in Ancient Greece would have their beards, hair, and fingernails trimmed and styled by the (cureus), in an agora (market place) which also served as a social gathering for debates and gossip.» — Wikipedia, under the word «Barber».
In a matter of minutes, everyone in the shop was engaged in conversation, up until it was my turn to be on the seat. I was the only one left and it was 5 minutes to 8PM at this point.
Regarding the actual cut — I call CJ the math and science professor. Math because he works with precision. He studies the growth and direction of your hair, the shape of your head, and comes up with ideas on how to approach the cut. Science because his work is systematic. Professor because he’ll present his ideas in a very professionally eloquent way, like a teacher showing his students how to dissect a frog. But overall, it’s art, because he takes his time with his craft, of which he is a master. For the edges, he used a shaving cream blend of eucalyptus and lemon, which was like aromatherapy. Afterwards, a quick warm towel wrap around your head which was so relaxing. Lastly, he closes by telling you how to style your hair based on the cut that he just did.
Both CJ and Tommy are very knowledgeable, accommodating, and very easy and comfortable to work with. We discussed topics from basketball, to business, and to the harsh realization that we were now in our 30’s and that high school was a lifetime ago.
The result… a clean, traditional but modern, professional look fit for my line of work and an engagement photo shoot next week. In short… SWAG!!!
Fate severed a good relationship with the lady who cut my hair, in favor of an even better barber.
