The Cuttery

I got an awesome haircut for a great price ($ 20), even better than my normal salon haircuts at 3x the price. No appointment, and when I came in there were 4 people in front of me, so I put my name on the list and waited about 45 minutes. My hair was really long and scraggly and hadn’t been cut in a while. I asked for long layers, and showed a picture for reference on my phone. Jasmine cut my hair and worked wonders. She must have spent at least 40 minutes on my hair. She used a light oil to tame the frizz and even misted a finishing spray on It. Now my hair has some shape and looks great straight. All haircuts are only $ 20 (out the door) and you really can’t beat the price. I won’t be going back to my expensive salon!

I love this place and have been getting my hair done by Jesy for years! Recently, I started making appointments for her to do my highlights and this girl knows her stuff! I am always pleasantly surprised at the turn out of my haircuts and how she can tone my color just right. I came in with fried ends and orange-​ish blonde looking highlights and she worked her magic once again. I’ve watched the other girls create some masterpieces through the time I’ve been coming and it will be a sad day when I move out of the area. If you come by and are told to come back later, there’s a reason they keep busy and it’s the reason why clients like myself go do some errands and come right back. They’re great at what they do.

Got my hair cut by jasmine today! She gave me exactly what I asked for and i couldn’t be happier. I’m super picky with my haircuts but I have no complaints about the one jasmine gave me. I have super long hair that I rarely let anyone touch but I took a chance and I’m glad I did!

Unfortunately I forgot the two ladies names but one had green hair and one had blue hair and they were both amazing. They gave my older son a very nice high Fade only cutting A little at a time until we said we were happy. I also took my one year-​old son here for his first haircut at the same time and they were very patient and gentle with him. Not to mention I completely love his haircut, sometimes with children this young you honestly can’t get both a nice haircut and a good experience. But we did receive both and I will definitely be taking my children back here for their haircuts.

Place is right near my house me and my 2 girls got our hair cut. My daughter and I with Erica, and I’m very happy with my results and waiting on her to finish my daughter. My older daughter with the longest thickest hair Christina took care of her and was not intimidated by her length she got right in there and cut it exactly how we asked! The ladies who work here are very friendly. Expect a wait on Saturday, well worth the wait! Family affordable for sure! I’m very happy I found them here on Unilocal

I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS PLACE!
I absolutely love this place! I have been getting my haircut here since I was a baby and I have never gotten a bad haircut. Christina is fantastic and they take great care of myself and my kids. They have toys the children can play with while they wait and they engage their customers on a personal level.
I highly recommend this place to everyone I know. They don’t currently take regular appointments (that I know of) but I’ve never had to wait terribly long for a haircut either.
When I was away at college I tried to go to another stylist and the experiences were terrible so I always ended up coming here to have them fix my haircuts. If I could give them more than 5 stars I would :)

My husband has been going to the Cuttery for about a year and likes it ok. There are a lot of men who come to the Cuttery and I saw some nice haircuts, while I waited there.
My kid got a haircut ($ 16 bucks for a kid) and it’s too long! 2 weeks later and I feel that we need to give him another haircut.
I tried it this weekend as I was dying for a haircut and wanted to try someone new. BIG mistake! So, they don’t take appointments, which I could see how it could be good, but not on a Sat afternoon. I waited over an hour.
Finally, I sit down with the stylist (Jessica). First, I didn’t see her cleaning the tools properly, and my concern was confirmed as during the haircut she was brushing off previous clients hairs from the thinning scissors — no disinfectant. Second, I asked her for a short layered. She said «like a bob’? What?! Needless to say I ended up with a bob haircut not layered, front a back is not blended, ends not even. She asked me whether I want it off the shoulders, which was a yes, but not at my chin. Definitely very poor stylist abilities as she was not able to properly elicit my haircut wants… I do rely on the stylist’s artistics abilities to make the haircut come together, and that was definitely lacking. And then she didn’t show me the back when we were done! So, not sure if it’s a horrible mess or actually is ok.
However, as my friend said «What did you want from a $ 20 haircut?!»

I really love this place. I know I am in great hands whenever I go there. Christina is who I go to and she is absolutely awesome. She asks you questions throughout the haircut to make sure she cuts it the way you want. I always feel so fresh once she is done with the haircut!

I have been going to The Cuttery for years. Christina has never given me a bad hair cut. She is so sweet and always has an open ear. I love talking with her. This is a very friendly place to go and the prices are great. I plan to go there for many more years!

I’ve been coming to The Cuttery for several years now, and I think Christina and Staff are ultra-​fantastic! On a scale of 5 stars, I’d give them 10! Or at least a galaxy! No one does better on my flattop or peace sign. The peace sign promotes conversation, which is what our world leaders should try sometime.

I just started coming here. I really like this place and they do a great job. I will say that it is a little expensive to take myself and my kids so we don’t come as often as I would like.

I don’t know why I never reviewed this place but I’ve been coming here for a couple years now and just love it! Personally I get my hair cut by Jake Helton, he’s amazing and knows exactly what he is doing when it comes to cutting and styling! Other than that the ladies that work here are all very kind, approachable and all around just awesome. I enjoy coming here for my haircut, I only wish they would accept cards in the future at some point, but at least I carry cash now because of this place.
I recommend you come here if you’re looking for a refreshing style and want to come to a upbeat, positive haircutting business.

So I was leaving for Hawaii on Saturday morning early, and I was trying to get my haircut at 5pm on Friday. I honestly didn’t think I had a chance in hell of getting a good haircut and would have to go to a supercuts. I stumbled on the Cuttery when I was driving around the CV village, and as I went in, it seemed like the kind of place that could take me in a pinch. I talked to Christina, and she said to put my name on the list and they could get me in. When I checked the price list, I was amazed at how cheap it was! It’s hard to get a haircut anymore for less than $ 50, and here I was at what seemed like a pretty lo-​key hip hair salon. All the stylists looked like they knew what they were doing with their clients, so I felt like I would be in good hands.
I waited for about 20 minutes, and Christina asked me to come over. Even though the shop closed in 5 minutes, and she had a workout class that she would be late for, she was like «Honey, I can’t let you go to Hawaii with this hair.» Not only did she take the time to wash and condition my hair properly, but she took the time to give me a great haircut.
For the price and the quality, the Cuttery can’t be beat!
Also the Giants logo in the window doesn’t hurt! GO GIANTS!

I have a mess of curls on my head so I’m picky about where I go to get a hair cut even if it’s just a trim. New in the area and gave this place a try… I won’t be going anywhere else now. The staff is friendly and good at what they do.

Christina! Cut my hair!

My mother-​in-​law has been raving to me about Christina and the Cuttery since my husband and I started dating three years ago. Now that I live in Castro Valley, when the time came to get my hair trimmed, of course I chose to try this place out.
I’ve had nothing but awful luck at most chain hair salons with getting a cut I’m completely satisfied with. «Please just trim the ends» somehow turns into a pixie cut (over exaggeration) EVERY time. I was so thrilled that Christina LISTENED to what I was saying, repeated it back to me, and actually just did what I asked for. I loved chatting with her and listening to her greet every customer who came in by name and catch up for a minute. It was affordable, quick, and exactly what I wanted. What more could you ask for from a local hair salon?
I don’t plan on going anywhere else to get my haircut :)

I’ve had my hair cut at expensive salons and the quality just didn’t compare to The Cuttery. I will drive 30 minutes to get here for a haircut because I know they will do a quality job every time. Plus you really can’t beat their price point. Great family place and all the hairdressers make you feel right at home.

I’ve been getting haircuts here since the early 90s. Haircuts are inexpensive, but the quality is very high. Owner and stylist Christina is super: salt of the earth, a heart of gold and she loves her clients. I can’t imagine going anywhere else.

surprised that they took care of my long curls and didn’t just chop it off. Christina is the go-​to cutter. Just the length I wanted and spent far less than the surrounding hair salons!

I have been bringing my son here since he was 8 months old. He never gives them an easy time but somehow we always end up with a great haircut! The ladies there are so patient and mellow and understanding and so quick and experienced with haircutting. I can’t say enough good things. If it weren’t for The Cuttery, my little boy would just have to live with long hair. You also just feel at home when you walk in — with the box of toys for the kids and the lollipops for after the hair cut. Love this place!
