I recently relocated to Austin from San Francisco and was referred by a friend to Scruff’s Barbershop to get my hair cut by Tim Durant. Everything from the online booking, to the really amazing personality to my fabulous haircut was perfect. I literally cannot say enough positive things about this experience and I have had so many compliments on my haircut. Tim really knows what he is doing and took the time to get to know me, my style and exactly what I wanted. His barbershop is super cute, in a really cool part of town, and was extremely well designed. The location is quite and chill while also super cool and edgy. I am so excited to have found Tim and Scuff’s as it’s my new neighborhood go to. Not only is he super handsome and talented, but he is extremely kind. Thanks Tim and Scruff’s for an amazing experience. I will see you soon!

Diesel Barbershop – Menu with Prices – 5016 Gate Pkwy Unit #4, Jacksonville

This spot is SO LEGIT! As soon as I walked through the doors, the staff was very warm and inviting. This barbershop has a really cool and trendy vibe. Management was super kind and I have never been to a barbershop that welcomed me so warmly. YELPers, you’ve got to try this spot! It is AWESOME! Upon arriving, they offered me some drinks but I took the water. Haha! I’m on an alcohol cleanse. lol. But if you come through, you will be offered a plethora of drinks to select from including beer, sodas, etc. The management hooked me up with this guy, Ramon, and he definitely knew his way around the clippers. He talked about working under some amazing barbers including a celebrity barber in Puerto Rico. Diesel offers different packages and I selected the full service package to see what Diesel was all about as they are new to the area. I was not disappointed. The experience was awesome and I went ahead and booked my next cut. Ramon provided superb service and he really knew his way around the clippers. He was a cool dude and we talked about his experience in the field. He worked under some amazing barbers and I am glad that he cut my hair as this was the first time that I was buzzing off my hair and getting my beard cleaned up. If you are at this barbershop, I highly recommend Ramon. He was super friendly and chill. The full service package included the cut, shampoo, massage and the works. It was mad good. I left this spot feeling clean and like a brand new person…so if you are in the area, definitely hit this place up, ask for Ramon and leave for the better knowing you had probably the best haircut experience of your life!

Honest Barber Menu with Prices 5436 Burnet Rd, Austin

I want to begin by saying that I used to go to the Grand Barbershop in the Triangle, but then I followed all the cool barbers here when they went to start their own place up. First things first, this place highly discourages walk-ins in favor of appointments. This makes sense – no one has time to wait around at a barbershop anymore. I arrived right around my appointment time and was greeted with the incredibly clean, all-white room that is the Honest Barber. I waited 10-15 minutes for my barber to be ready for me, which was a bit longer than I would’ve liked, but the free beverages (both alcoholic and wholesome) made the wait more pleasant. When the time came, I sat down at David’s chair for my haircut. I showed him what I wanted, and he got to work on my long, messy mane. In the meantime, we talked about our lives – his was pretty fascinating; mine not so much – and essentially just enjoyed each other’s company. David did a great job with my hair and then shaved my neckline with the classic straight razor, which I find is rather unappreciated in 2019. I was a little dubious because he didn’t ask if I wanted the back square or rounded, but I assume he saw how it was before and followed suit. It would’ve set my mind a little more at ease if he had communicated this though. All in all, $30 + tip for a high-quality haircut and drinks included is a great value, and Honest Barber is my new go-to barbershop in Austin. Bonus: you might get featured on their Instagram page!

El Cid Barbershop – Menu with Prices – 2730 S Dixie Hwy #3, West Palm Beach

I have known Juan (the owner) from way before he opened this Barbershop. He is a great barber and very qualified to give you any type of haircut that you may want: skin fades, blowouts, classic… You name it. Most importantly, he is a good human being with a great heart; you will notice that as soon as you walk-in. I am a very picky customer when it comes to getting haircuts and I have to say that Juan is top quality! I have been extremely satisfied with his work! In regards to his barbershop: AWESOME! This is a very fun, relaxed and professional atmosphere not only for adults, but for children as well. Juan has his mind in the right place when it comes to running a business. Satisfaction and hospitality for his clients comes first. He also has a good group of guys that fit just right in with his business philosophy. If you are looking for a very qualified barbershop along with great customer service, then I strongly recommend El Cid Barbershop!

V’s Barbershop – Quail Springs Oklahoma City – Menu with Prices – 3000 W Memorial Rd Suite 119, Oklahoma City

I absolute love this barbershop. The atmosphere is incredible with relaxing jazz in the background, the classic old-timey feel and the welcoming environment. The owners Sharif and Stacie are very engaged in the business which is not something you see much nowadays. They greet you with a warm smile and take care of you from start to finish. Mark was my barber and he did a fantastic job. I had a bit of scare with my haircut two days after it was done and went back to see him and the whole staff went absolutely above and beyond to take care of me. I will definitely be back for my next haircut and I 100% recommend Vâ??s to anyone who wants a great experience and haircut.

Grumpy Old Men?s Barbershop & Shave Parlor – Menu with Prices – 711 S Vine Ave, Ontario

I came in a few days ago and was nervous. I’ve only had 5 people cut my hair in my life and am incredibly critical. I sat down I told her what I wanted and away we went. I’ve been going to someone that has done a good job at fantastic sams for 10 years… I got tired of all their drama with each other and just couldn’t take it anymore. Grumpy old men’s found me on Instagram and I followed back. It was a sign. Plus my GF says im grumpy. When all is said and done I had one of the best haircuts in my life. I’m not exaggerating at all. She did such an incredible job and I’m finally back in a barbershop… This is My Barbershop. Update : her Name was Syria and she’s my barber! Can’t wait for my next haircut

Wonder hair salon – Menu with Prices – 4425 Torrance Blvd, Torrance

Eugene was heaven sent ! Hubby was able to take a rare day off last minute and insisted I leave the house and get my nails done, a massage or a haircut or just drive somewhere to park and take a nap haha anything to get me out of the house (I have 3 kiddos under 3, yes yikes !) so I opted for a haircut. I knew it’d be a challenge finding an appointment anywhere soo last minute since I started making my calls at around 2:30. I checked a few reviews and made a few messages through yelp.. Eugene replied lightning fast and said she could take me in at 3:45. Turns out she had a last minute cancellation, I was super excited & super nervous since this would be the first time at a new place. Last time I tried a haircut with a good yelp following it didn’t work out for my hair and I was so disappointed… I sat in her chair, explained I was losing my hair by the buckets post having a baby (or 3) & my hair was very dry it sometimes gets extremely tangled. We came up with a game plan and I was whisked off to the heaven station or the hair washing station as some people know it by. She washed my hair, I requested the temperature to be cold since it was near 100 degrees out this day. I cannot describe the feeling, the cool water felt so amazing but the massage she gives when she’s shampooing and rinsing and conditioning and rinsing again ooh so amazing !!!!!!! I’m definitely coming back just for shampoo and blow dry appointments. I mean, it wasn’t a quick, here’s your “massage” now get outta my chair massage. It was an experience all on its own… once my hair was squeaky clean and scalp was done being in heaven it was time to sit in her chair and see how she’d do with my hair. Being that I’m losing my hair, I still have what some hairstylist call a “hair forest”.. I’m Hispanic so my hair is extremely thick and long and I have a lot of it… Being that Eugene is Asian, I was nervous that maybe she hadn’t worked on other ethnicity hair before (just a weird “what if” I had in my head), I noticed a lot of her products were Japanese so I just assumed her clientele was mostly Asian, and maybe it is but either way, she rocked it !!!! She handled my hair & my thickness sooo soo well! I absolutely loved my cut. I got home and my husband raved about my cut as well… all in all it was $70, which is a few bucks more than I’d expected but the experience and attention I received def merited it… def trust Eugene with your hair, once she’s got scissors in her hand she just gets so focused and ends with a win !

Broken Spoke Tacoma – Beer. Barbers. Bikes. – Menu with Prices – 1014 M.L.K. Jr Way, Tacoma

UPDATE: so as per my 3 star rating. I have adjusted my rating to 5 star. I’ve since visited 2 times since my first visit here. the people have been nothing but accommodating. My $55 gift card which was for a deluxe package was turned into 2 haircuts, since I don’t have a beard to shave. Learned that offer Military Haircuts for $20 The barber Georgette is very nice. Did a great job. Was even able to work with me on the 2nd visit cause I got off work late and showed up 10 min late to my appointment. Got to learn the history of the place which was pretty cool! Highly recommend this place and Georgette! .Let it be known..I have a barber that I already go to weekly. I went here cause a close friend stops in here frequently. So they had purchased a $55 gift certificate here for my birthday. I had not scheduled a haircut with my barber the week I visited, cause I was going to give this place a try. How to say this…I didn’t have the best experience…but I didn’t not, not like this place. I originally wanted to give this a 2 star rating, but with the few mishaps/observations I had they, a few have been corrected, and as I give this place another shot I will reevaluate my review. High points: great vibe, great set up, love the fact that you can chill and have a beer while waiting to get a haircut. The haircut turned out great from the barber I had that day. Low points to my visit: 1. They open at 10 am, I showed up at 11:15-11:20, expecting maybe a wait for a walk in haircut. BUT as I showed up, their barber had not shown up yet. *I do understand that people run behind, it was also the barbers 1st day. The barber showed up a little over two hours after the shop had opened. I had sat for at right about an hour, after sitting at the bar and had purchased a beer. I almost didn’t get a haircut, and was just slightly annoyed cause I needed to find a place to get a haircut that day for work the following day, and my barber was booked.ran into the barber right as I was walking out to leave. He had stopped me, and asked if I was here to get a haircut? I responded “well I was”, and he insisted that I stay and that he was ready to go. So I ended up getting a good haircut. 2. I was not able to redeem my gift certificate. My gift certificate was written on the back of a business card, and the gift certificate can only he redeemed by that person on that person. When asked the person running the bar didn’t know if the person still worked there. *Thankfully the gift certificate was on the back of the business card, and I was able to find the person’s IG and messaged that person. Turned out they still work there, just part time. Also since the person only works there part time, with a limited availability, they transferred my gift certificate to another barber. Thank goodness for that, cause I would have hated to see my friends gift certificate become wasteful. 3. In the one visit alone, i learned both the barber who cut my hair and the barber who the gift certificate was bought for only work there part time. * A key note for me who frequently gets my haircut, I want someone who cuts full time and isn’t working a more than one location. I don’t want to be limited on the day’s I can schedule a haircut. I tend to have a set day and an alternate day each week that I get my haircut, but things do come up and sometimes I need to adjust, but I would like to know that someone will be available. But I have high hopes, and I’m sure that I will readjust this review after my next cut. All and all, I did like my haircut, I like the place. With the few reservations I have, I don’t know if it would be a place I would leave my current barber to come to.

Hannah Beauty Hair Salon – Menu with Prices – 4712 El Cajon Blvd Ste E, San Diego

I went here to get my haircut by Hannah (store owner) bc my sister recommended her. I have always been hesitant with getting my hair cut bc it has never come out how I wanted, but OMG!!! I AM SO IN LOVE WITH MY HAIRCUT FROM HANNAH!!!!! Never in my life have I loved my hair this much. EVER. She listened to exactly what I wanted and replicated the photo I showed her. She really took her time with me and my hair feels and looks AMAZING. You can tell she’s really skilled based off how she cuts & I cannot emphasize how happy I am. This is the first time in my life that I have LOVED my haircut. I wish I could give her even more stars!! I’m from Irvine & was just visiting for the weekend, but now I’ll definitely have to make the 1.5hr commute to always get my cut here. It’s totally worth it!!!! I will never go anywhere else now. Ps. She’s so affordable too!

By The Blade – Menu with Prices – 43473 Boscell Rd, Fremont

Johnny Na’s haircut suite is located in the Pacific Commons Plaza in between Home Goods and Jo-Anns. While you’ll see a building that says Salons by JC, there is in fact several suites with hair/nail salons inside. His suite is #15. I arrived a little early to my 11:30 am appointment and wasn’t sure if I was in the right location at first, but quickly found out after walking inside that I was in the right place. I will be honest. While my appointment was at 11:30 am, Johnny was late by 30 minutes. I guess I was his first appointment for the day and â??he was coming in from Dublin which had traffic. I would say that I’m a pretty patient person and was more understanding after he had informed me through text that he was running late. When Johnny finally arrived, he looked a little flustered and I was a little worried at that point because I wasn’t sure if he would be able to deliver a nice haircut under stress from the traffic. I reassured him that it was fine and I showed him a picture I had found on pinterest. I asked for his honest opinion and whether the hairstyle would suit my face structure and shape and he was able to provide me with feedback. He started to cut away and once I saw him getting into his groove, I was confident that he would do a good job. Johnny is not only a hair stylist that is meticulous and detail oriented, he is also very personable. During my haircut, we chatted about life and food. It made the experience a lot better. My younger sister came with me and she mentioned that my haircut took a little over 1.5 hours!!! I’ve never had someone spend so much time on my hair. I was so surprised, but it really does show. I also would like to mention that it was also my first time getting my hair shampooed and washed. I believe the service is included with the starting haircut price, but don’t quote me. It was so relaxing and made me feel pampered. LOL I also have fine Asian hair and I grew it super long for my wedding. He was able to give me a short haircut that framed my face well. In the end, I was very happy with the turn out of my haircut. While I will say that Johnny’s haircuts are not cheap, you are paying for the quality of the haircut and service that he provides. I only cut my hair every 1 to 1.5 years, so spending a little more to have someone do a thorough job means a lot. Although pictures don’t do my hair justice, it really turned out great! I love it and so did my husband when he saw it in person! Thank you, Johnny!! I may have found my new hair stylist! ? P.S – a week has passed and my hair still looks so good! Even though Johnny had showed me ways to style my hair, little does he know that I’m a pretty low maintenance gal and his haircut for me was effortless. No work needed and I still get compliments from people! ?

St. Augie’s Pizza – Menu with Prices – 113 1/2 King St, St. Augustine

Best experience on this side of town. Owners/Operators are so amazing and will treat you like family. We brought some family from out of town and they loved the pizza. We ordered a couple pies including a Hawaiian and a supreme and wow were they amazing. This place is worth the trip wherever you are or wherever you are staying . There’s lots of pizza options and lots of good slices to grab in the old city but I promise you this is the best dining experience you will have. Very convenient location on the best side of king street and within walking distance of the old city. You can also park on their own lot and there’s plenty of parking. There’s a game table for kids and it’s nice and cool in there. Knots are on point and the marinara is perfect. Go here and do yourself a favor.

Transport Yourself Segway Tours & Golf Menu with Prices 1401 Hillmont St, Austin

I’ve been on two segway tours with Transport Yourself and really enjoyed each one. Highly recommend them as the way to see Austin! Five stars all the way around! I first went on the bat tour. This is a great tour where go through scenic parts of Austin and unique parts of downtown, ending at the Congress bridge to see the bats. Though the bats can be picky on when they come out, this doesn’t diminish the joy of riding around town on a segway. Their segways are top of the line. I love how safe I felt. They have great tour guides that give excellent instruction for first-timers. You practice a bit before you go out so you are totally comfortable with handling the segway. Then on the tour, the guides keep a good eye on the guests to make sure everyone is safe and having a good time. We wanted to go and see the historical murals in Austin…and as it turns out, we planned on doing so in the heat of the summer. Between trying to find parking and walking in the heat…this didn’t sound fun. But on a segway?! Heck yea! The mural tour is fantastic! There are so many interesting murals in Austin that are tucked away, a segway is a great way to see them, snap a photo and stroll along to the next one. This is THE WAY to see AUSTIN!
