Clips N Cuts

You get what you pay for. Decent quality haircut, especially for the price ($ 11 for men’s cut). Might return.

I pass by this place Monday-​Friday going to work. Read the reviews and said why not?! I have paid $ 30 to $ 60 for a cut and I was disappointed. I requested a trim. I didn’t want to take too much length just the damaged ends due to all the processing I had done, also, I wanted to even it out. Jenny did just that. She was fast, polite, nice and made sure she didn’t cut too much. She did a great job. Love my haircut/​trim. She gave my hair little life back! I will definitely be coming back for another trim/​cut! This place is a small hole in the wall salon but it might just be the best one I’ve been to. I’ve been to fancy, nice looking salons, and they end up disappointing me. Cutting too much or giving me an old lady haircut! Haircut wise; I really like this place! Thank you Jenny you were great!!! My hair is healthier now.

Love this place. I have been going here for a few months now and I never had a complaint. Great haircuts for a great price! Highly recommend it

Fast, confident, professional. Must be one of the fastest and most quiet haircuts I’ve ever had. They made any requested changes immediately and competently.

I normally hate getting a haircut but I really like this place. I’ve come here twice now and the cut my hair really well. I was vague in asking for what I want and they made sure to clarify what exactly I wanted. The would also stop and ask me if the length was good or I wanted shorter.
The price is very cheap and it takes very little time to do the cut. Would definitely come again.

These reviews are not joking about how wonderful this place is! My boyfriend normally goes to just the closest barber next to our apartment since he isn’t picky, but they closed down. I decided to look online for the closest barber for one «$» and found this little nook.
It’s right off of Bascom, and the atmosphere is so cute and creative when you walk in. We were lucky we got there in the knick of time, because four guys had walked in shortly after us. The lady who helped him with his hair was talented, quick, and intuitive. We gave her a short description and she nailed it right on the dot! Not only that, the haircut was completed in 20 minutes. Thank god, some hairdressers take so long on my boyfriend’s hair… from 45 minutes to an hour and I just have no idea why or how.
My boyfriend will definitely be returning here! We love it!

I had 8 inches of my hair chopped off into a cute, short, layered, haircut for $ 17 bucks. Can’t beat that! I brought in a picture and the stylist cut it exactly the way I asked. Thanks Annie! I love my new do.

New to the Bay area and have tried various places. This has got to be my go-​to spot since it’s nearby; but more importantly, the detail they put in to making it an even better haircut than from just what I want. Jenny is really great with that detail and patient to make it happen while also fast too! If you need a new place to try or nearby, definitely give this place a go.

Definitely doesn’t look like your normal barber shop when you walk in — kinda feels like you’re getting your hair cut in some lady’s living room. But sit down, and you’re treated to a quality haircut at a superb price — I think about $ 11 before tip and they won’t just buzz all around your head, they’ll take the time to clean everything up with scissors and make the corners all neat and everything. I’ll definitely be back!

Just got a GREAT haircut from Peter! Nice work, and great customer service. I’ve been back twice since my first visit and the work and service at this shop stay consistent. They cut hair 100% better than most salons, and charge half the price. Seriously, go in ask for Peter.

I’ve been coming here for a little over three years. Having come from LA and the land of 250 $ haircuts I was a little wary at first, but after trying a bunch of fancy places at santa row and the prune-​yard and being disappointed (pretentious salons have never rubbed me the right way), I was referred here. The first time I walked in they were playing a Michael Jackson concert and I had a feeling I would like it.
I get a men’s highlight and cut which seems easy enough, but it is quit tricky. They work it out with ease and profession. I’ve never had a complaint and at a ¼ the cost, it’s a steal. Personally I’ve had more compliments on my hair then I ever have before paying bank.
A year ago I moved back to LA, but so far I’ve managed to still make it back up here to get my hair did.
Fast, comfortable, comforting and expert beauticians. A+++ :)

My office is in SJ and sometimes it’s convenient to get my haircut there rather than in San Francisco. Discovered this place because it’s open until 7:30 and they generally do a great job and are friendly.

In the past, I have been spoiled by having my haircuts and colors by friends who are fantastic hairsylists. I recently moved to the area and was hesitant on getting my haircut. A couple of months ago, the mister found this location on Unilocal and have been going here regularly. So as I looked over the reviews, there were a lot of positive reviews for women’s cuts. So I decided that I would put my trust with Unilocal.
I walked in and luckily there wasn’t a wait. I didn’t get the stylists’ name, but she was very friendly. She asked what I wanted to do and I showed her a picture. I asked for trim and some more layers. Since I haven’t trimed my hair for almost a year, she took about an inch of dead ends off, which was much needed. In the end, I was happy with the cut. I would highly recommend this place for the service and price.

I’ve been coming here off and on for the last three years and they do a great job at an excellent price. I have long and thick hair which previous stylists have told me is daunting to cut. Jenny has done my hair most often, is very efficient and pays attention to the detail my hair requires. Jessica does an amazing job too. One other female stylist isn’t as good, so I only trust her to do trims and not full cuts. Well worth the 30+ minute trip to come here. It’s a ¹⁄₃ of the cost of what I have paid at salons and in half the time. Would definitely recommend this place for a female hair cut.

Came here for last minute. Was a christmas eve or new years eve, but Never again for me. And would recommend maybe for like simple hair cut style (fades). nice ladies there though. Nice small studio

About 4 months ago I used a gift certificate for a high end salon that had me leaving in tears over the monstrosity the woman butchered onto my head. (It was so horrifying I’ve spent that time under bandanas and hats.) I let it grow out and came here after multiple recommendations. I’m soooooo glad I did.
They were able to shape my hair into something that can grow out into a decent style. They didn’t do any cutting without thoroughly explaining why and how it would help the style grow out. I was really happy that she asked me more than once if it was okay to go shorter to aid the style. I was happiest with the fact that she took the time to go over a few styling options for the cut she gave me as it grew out.
It’s not the cut I would have chosen but it looks fantastic and will grow out well. If they can fix that bad of a hack job and make me happy to look in the mirror, it’s a testament to their skill.

first timer and now a fan! if you are into short hair are looking for a great fade, this place is not to be missed. the service is friendly, the environment is cozy and the quality is top notch. i purchased american crew products here. my barber was not only on point with her suggestions for my fade, but she gave me my «forming cream» at a discounted price. see my before after for a sample of how good these barbers are. my barber was a lady, i did not get her name but she took good time to make sure my fade was flawless and smooth. first time i’ve gotten the royal treatment with a fade. they used american crew products to finish my look which i thought was not only generous, but highly professional as i am into the finer line of hair products.
i was used to driving out of my way to the east side for a good fade, but i’ve found a new place for an amazing haircut at Clips N Cuts!

I’ve been here twice now. Sure, it says it’s a barbershop, but they also do women’s haircuts as well… for very affordable prices. As a grad student, you have to be willing to try new things in order to not look like a shaggy beast!
This place has tons of character. I don’t know how to explain it. It’s like… salon meets vegas meets dive bar? It’s quirky, I like it.
I’ve had my hair cut twice, each time by one of the ladies here. The first time for a trim with long hair — she did a nice job of evening it out and listened when I said I preferred to cut my own bangs. (Pretty sure an expensive salon would give me a frowny face if I told them I liked to cut my own bangs!)
The second time, my hair was shorter and I was more apprehensive. I had gotten a pixie cut before but it was growing out too long and I couldn’t afford to go back to the other place I got my hair cut. Short haircuts are easy to mess up on women. Even though they didn’t razor it, their thinning scissors and everything did quite a nice job for less than ¼ of the price I paid for my previous haircut. The woman who cut my hair worked fastidiously on it until it looked good.
The only reasons for 4 stars rather than 5 are that the parking situation is not great and that both times, they’ve cut off a little bit more hair than I’d hoped. Also, some of the customers could maybe use to be a little more respectful to the ladies who work here.

Seriously regret not waiting for my usual barbershop. I found this place on Unilocal saw the reviews and figured it would be OK my usual spot was closed for the day and I needed a cut. Place is small but not a bad atmosphere. That’s about all the positive things I have to say.
I sat in the chair farthest right and had the gentleman as my barber he asked how I wanted it I specifically told him a half on the sides and a 3 on top and to please keep the line low right at the tip of my ears a medium fade pretty much it started well he kept the line where I asked so I figured he could handle it. (now things go downhill) he ran the Clippers over the top with the number 3 blade and then started to blend and fade my hair little by little it went higher and higher I couldn’t see where he was cutting because he was in front of the mirror but once he moved everything was bad I had a crew cut literally a high and tight fade idk what you wanna call it but it was nothing like what I asked I should have just been bald. The situation is worse because I do have a tattoo on my head I understand that was a decision I made and I live with but regardless I specified how I wanted my haircut for that reason seems like once he couldn’t get it to blend right he just did his own thing I haven’t had my hair this way since I was 13 so seriously upset will never visit this place again if your into the high and tight bald fades this could be your spot but if you have more specific looks your going for there are better places out there. I give it two stars because if this was the fade I asked for I would be happy they were polite enough didn’t talk much tho so maybe I should do one star… Decisions decisions…

I found Clips N Cuts on Unilocal when I was in dire need of a haircut and nowhere near my regular barber shop.
The barber shop is fairly small with only a couple of parking spaces. I actually passed by without even realizing it. There is not a lot of room for multiple customers here. I think I saw 3 chairs total. Luckily there was only 1 other guy besides me. I wonder what its like when this place is busy, and where would you even park?
Judging by the women’s accent that was cutting my hair, I was worried she wouldn’t understand the way I was describing to cut my hair. However, I must say that my hair ended up almost exactly the way I wanted. And anytime you leave a barber shop happy that’s a good thing.
I feel like the barber shop is decorated in a rather unique way. Seems like lots of random things everywhere, including Christmas lights hanging from the ceiling.
The woman cutting my hair didn’t talk to me much, but they do have TVs at each chair for the customer to watch so that had my full attention anyways. She did accidentally knock my sunglasses on the floor though, and they were my nicer pair. I didn’t mind but I could see how some people would be pretty upset.
This place is VERY affordable! And they don’t push any products on you! Going to a new barber is always a big risk, but Clips N Cuts handled it that’s for sure. Great haircut.
