Supercuts

My daughter and I went to get our hair cut. The girl cut my daughter’s hair in less than 5 minutes, and it didn’t even look like she had a hair cut. I asked if she could cut some more. She cut her hair for maybe two more minutes, and left it super uneven. I made an excuse to leave so that my hair didn’t suffer the same fate. I will include photos.
You can go down the street to Secrets, and get a much better, thorough haircut for less money.

Please stay away for SANDRA!!! She trim my nieces (5yrs) bangs horrible and charged $ 17! For a trim!!! No stars!

Denise did a wonderful job. Listened to what I wanted and cut my hair exactly as we talked about. Miriam was good to.

Sandy did a great job. Men’s haircut and eyebrows, perfect.

Great service and always receive you with a smile, highly recommend it, ask for Leslie she does an amazing job with my hair.

Been coming since 07′. Been a lot of turnover since then, but that may just be normal, idk. I ask for Sandy… I have to say that it took a while for her to learn what I liked, but once we got to that point, shes automatic. I just close my eyes and take a nap. A plus is that Sandy is very detailed orientated and spends some time on little things.

I bring my son here. The ladies here are great with kids. Price is kinda high. $ 16 for a kid’s cut that only lasts 5mins.

STAY AWAY!!! (unless you like bad haircuts) I have had 2 bad cuts there and I’m done. The first time I figured it can happen anywhere, but not twice. Kat ruined my hair. The other stylist did a fine job of screwing my hair up too. Horrible!

This place is cheap, and possibly good if you’re taking your young kids there to get a trim. I went in to get a trim and add some bangs to my hair. The girl didn’t do an awful job, but it sure wasn’t that great either. When I said I was trying to grow my hair long but that I needed a trim, she seemed rather confused as to why I was getting my haircut if I was trying to grow it out (uh, split ends!). Then she seemed to feel that cutting my bangs would also prevent my hair from growing long. She took maybe 10 minutes on the whole job, conversation included. I don’t know for sure if she knew what she was doing, but thankfully what I asked for was easy enough and anything that was left undone I was able to do myself.
I’ve had better haircuts, and at least she didn’t try to sell me stuff (all of the other locations spent a long time lecturing me on buying the stuff *they* sell, lol). I won’t be going back to this location, however, since there are plenty of hair salons in Monrovia.

I don’t understand all the negative comments about this place. I’ve been going there for years. I ALWAYS get a good cut. The staff is always fast, courteous and talented. I’ve never had a bad experience. If you want a good, basic hair cut, you need to try this place. Oh, and PS: Sandy is amazing. I ask for her specifically, because she takes care of me so well!

Aw I’m a little sad that the reviews for this place are so bad. I for one do not usually go to these francise hair cut salons. My hair is long and I’m a little picky, so I prefer to go to my favorite stylist at a particular salon in Covina. BUT my little 13 year old brother needed a haircut really bad. he needed to get rid of his justin bieber hair! I finally convinced him but he did not want to go back to this previous salon he usually goes to, so my first thought was supercuts. Pretty cheap, and not too far away.
The little bro is a shy guy, very nervous so I helped him try to figure out what kind of hair style he wanted. Which he didn’t know. Our stylist was this asian lady… I think her name was Sally? She was so friendly and so sweet, that my little brother easily trusted her. Even though I had a hard time explaining what kind of hair he wanted (he didn’t want a simple buzzcut, nope, he’s way more complicating than that), she was just like «don’t worry, I think I know what you want.» and Voila, he looked so handsome afterwards. I finally could see his forehead thats been hidden under his hair! Best of all, he was happy with it. which is very RARE. I’m sure he’ll want to find her next time he needs a hair cut. So 5 stars to the asian lady that understood how to cut my brother’s hair, I think it looks so clean and trendy!

there isn’t much more to what other 3 already have said there bad i went there for a haircut and a touch up on the grey she said it would be the salt & pepper thats what i wanted it came all Black. Lousy work.

«Idiots With Scissors» should really be the name for the Supercuts in Duarte. Even When you describe exactly what you want in your hair cut several times throughout the haircut, they still get it wrong. Really, my hair is quite simple: 5 on top and 1 on the sides. Easy Peasy. Apparantly according to my barber, it meant «Shave my head please.» Yes, I am now bald because of the «stylists» incompetance of the english language. Please, don’t be stupid like me and go to the Supercuts in Duarte.

Once again, the crappiness of chain haircutting salons strikes again!
So, I was looking for a stylist that has worked at the Supercuts in Arcadia (which I’ll leave for a different review), and was told they might be a the Duarte Supercuts. Hoping beyond hope, I stopped by and didn’t find the person I was looking for. No problem — I’m willing to try someone new.
Now, a quick little background: I have asian hair (if that’s not evident from the picture). On top of that, my head is not perfectly shaped, so stylists have to adjust for the natural curvature of my skull. Unfortunately, 99.9% of all stylists have fucked up my hair because they don’t listen to what I say. I now make it a point to make it as clear as possible that A) my head has bumps and dips that you wouldn’t find on the normal head and B) there are some sections you should cut and you shouldn’t (for styling purposes). Since most stylists are used to cutting in a sloppy manner (the typical fade or caucasian hair, where it’s less likely to show mistakes), they find it somewhat appalling that I know exactly what I want and that I actually have standards when it comes to my hair. Of course, the information that I provide them with in the beginning is oft-​ignored and they end up fucking my hair anyway. Oh well, I guess basic competence is something that’s not be expected from a random stranger. End background.
I get Sandy, who seems nice and helpful, and I explain to her my problem with previous stylists and what to do/​not do when cutting my hair. She seems to understand and nods in that dumb way that most stylists do when all they’re thinking about is ending their shift and going home to a delicious frozen tv dinner and hours in front of the tv. Unfortunately, my hope for the ability of the typical person to follow basic directions wins out, and I let her begin cutting my hair.
I notice, odd, she’s trimming my bangs, even after I told her not to. Wait, don’t trim the top, I told you specifically to leave that area long. Hey, why are you tapering the sides so far up and why is one side so uneven? Suffice to say, at the end of the haircut, I looked at my head and knew that I was going to be in a bad mood come morning.
Well, I guess I didn’t have to wait until morning, because when I got home to take my shower, it was evident that my left side was shorter than my right side, by as much as ¼ of an inch. Fantastic. A stylist that can’t even get a basic taper right.
Anyway, to wrap up this review, I wholeheartedly recommend that anyone who has hair that isn’t easily managed stay 100% away from Sandy, because she’s yet another in a long line of disappointingly below average stylists.
