Main Barber

Main barber is awesome. I Come here once a week and Adrian cuts me up real nice. The guy has skills or what the youth call «Bars». The rest of the guys are good to and always telling great jokes. Luis, Ricky, Dan and Alex. place feels like home.

This place rocks! Fantastic establishment with talented barbers. Call ahead to make appt. as the place does get busy on weekends. Prices are relatively reasonable for the quality of service (s) provided. I will most certainly return on a regular basis.

Ok. The barbers I think are actually really good. But why I feel they are 3 stars is that it feels more like a hang out than a barber. I get it. Half moon Bay is a small town and a lot of the barbers friends come in but it’s really weird when you see the barber hanging outside the shop with his buddies or maybe your getting a haircut and a friend comes in to hang out where you have no real conversation with the person cutting your hair.
The appointment system can use a little work. I’ve made an online appointment for a specific barber and he didn’t even show up to work the next day and I was never notified. But I do think making an appointment online is cool.

Great barbershop! Just went to this barbershop for the first time and I have to say that I am impressed. As soon as I walked in I felt comfortable due partly to the clean/​stylish décor as well as the positive attitude of the staff. This alone does not constitute a five star rating, I gave it a five star rating because they nailed the haircut that I asked for. I definitely recommend going to the barbershop!

The worse experience ever ! First time, will give a try once more. Don’t know about all hairdressers but Dan is a NO, unless you plan on visiting the hood. Hair from previous customer never was swept away, made you sit on the chair full of hair. Constantly was answering the phone and leave the customer, etc

These guys and gals are legit. Real barbers with real skills! My first and second haircut was with Javier who took his time and really paid attention to detail which is a must for me.
Lately, I have been going during the day when it’s not busy and Danny cuts my hair. He’s fantastic and deserves just as much props as Javier. He trims down my eyebrows and always gives me the hot towel treatment and straight razor/​hot lather around the ears and in the back. He is also grateful for my military service and hooks me up with a nice discount allowing me to return the favor in kind with considerable gratuity.
Thanks to all the barbers at Main Barber and to Julie for opening a real man cave of a barber shop here in HMB.
Sidenote — having a beer while getting a haircut is first rate. What other barber shop does that?

Daniel did an okay job, not what I had asked for a cut. Didn’t trim around sides of the ears left strands of tiny hairs behind. Overall he was nice guy. Him and I and the rest of the workers all chatted of the 80’s rock bands which was actually cool. Call ahead of time for appointments.

Great Barber shop. This is not a salon. Julie is a trained barber and it shows. I live a couple of blocks away and walked in after work one day. It was a little busy but I didn’t mind waiting. There was fresh popcorn to munch on and drinks, not just water, like ‘hey want a beer?’ Concerning the cut all I can say is straight razor clean up on the neck. Awesome. I went back about a month later to get a cut and shave. First straight razor shave. It was a fun experience. Fair to say I do a better shave at home but it was enjoyable just to go through the treatment. I’ll be heading back for my third cut this week.

Worst haircut of my life. When I went back next day to get it fixed, owner told me that the responsible person had been let go, but she charged me again to fix it. What’s with that?

How have these guys not been reviewed yet — it really is a great place!
I don’t know what you other guys look for in a place to get your haircut — so, I won’t speak for you; but, I will share what I like.
I like a place that looks like they know how to cut a man’s haircut. A place that doesn’t smell like a nail salon and chokes me. A place that just seems — manly. If it brings back memories of me getting a haircut with my dad when I was a kid — bonus points.
Julie Hatcher’s «Main Barber» checks all the above boxes and then some!
I walked in and the place was simple man style — think dark wood floors, white subway tiles and real barber chairs. It’s like old school without being «kitchy» the only trinkets she has are antique barber tools mounted on the stand-​up mirrors at each station.
As soon as I sat in the chair, Julie asked if I wanted a beer. Yes, you read that right — drinking beer and getting a haircut, beautiful. Julie has a proper beauty salon down the street and as we got to talking, she said she had always wanted to open a barber shop. She takes her time — clippers on the side, scissors on the top and a straight razor on the neck and sideburns.
This is the real deal.
She gets the bonus points also. After the razor on the neck and ‘burns you get the hot towel to wipe it down and a splash of Bay Rum to finish. This is a spot dad would have liked.
Get out and get your cut on…
PS:
They also do a hot towel straight razor shave and you can book online with the MindBody Connect app.
