Sunset Beauty & Barber

I have been going here over a year. It is a solid place for an affordable haircut and they certainly do a better job than supercuts. You can ask for a free rinse afterwards so you do not shed hair all day.

You will not have a bad experience if you ask for Liz. I was going to Liz before she joined Sunset Beauty. She is so nice (and funny) and gives you what you want in a haircut. And for the price ($ 12) you can’t beat it! I went to Liz when haircuts were $ 15 and then the salon charged an extra $ 2 to get the stylist of choice.
Only drawback is that Liz works M-​W-​F. Not always convenient but she will work with you.

An Asian lady cut my hair. when I showed her the style I want, her first response was she could not do it since my hair was different. I said, OK, I want the length at least. Her nails are long and sharp and they hurt me a lot. After she thought she finished, without asking my opinion, she directly kicked me off the chair and said done. This is the worst salon and the reason I went is because my stylist in another shop is on vacation.
After went home, I found 2 strands of hair are so long and I need to cut myself. So bad experience. If you want a style and good service, NOT go there!

Best haircut for the buck around. Ask for Mai. She is my favorite. Haircuts are only $ 12. I’ve been coming here for almost 30 years. Can’t go wrong!

I did wind up returning as I was too lazy to find another cheap-​ish hair salon I trusted and I trusted them enough for a simple clip.
Went in on a Thursday morning around 11am and there was one guy getting a trim with the other two dressers waiting for customers (usually 3 hair dressers when I’ve been).
Pros:
+Cheap
+Decent for simple styles and trims
+They try to make some conversation and are nice enough
Cons
–I don’t leave

I switched to Sunset Beauty when my current stylist joined them a few years ago (I’d follow Liz wherever she worked) so of course I’m happy with Sunset. Liz has been doing my hair for nearly 30 years. And it’s a bonus that this place is less than a mile from where I live. I don[t have to go out of my way for my haircut.

Sometimes a man just needs his hair cut. This morning was the morning for me. I finally got to the point where it could wait no longer. I recently decided that it was time to find a new spot and hence, I set off on an adventure today. First I held down that familiar round button on the bottom of my iPhone «Siri is there a barber shop near me»? The reply was swift (got to love Siri) she gave me a list to work with, I quickly zeroed in on a place called Joes, nothing but 5 star reviews, hard to believe that Joe has never upset a customer, this guy has to be paying some people to stay quiet. I made my way quickly to Joes only to find a disappointing realization that Joes was not only no longer Joes (going by a new name) but also closed on Mondays, which actually makes more sense than a middle aged man trying to find a place to get his hair cut on a Monday morning.
With only Siri’s bad leads and nothing else to go on, I started driving north on 185^th just waiting for something to pop out at me. I found it! Sunset beauty & barber and they were open! I hopped straight onto Unilocal and was pleased with what I saw. Great reviews (mostly from older men but they said that they have been coming for years and seemed very pleased). I decided to give it a shot.
Immediately upon entrance I was greeted with a friendly voice «it will be just a short time». This sounded promising even with a few people were already seated and waiting. I realized right away that the place was very quiet, the only sounds coming from the three clippers running with all three chairs full and three women who seemed so focused on their work that they did not say a word. I started to look around for something that might keep my attention while I waited in the quiet little room. What I saw was worn down furniture and cabinets and some old photos on the walls with portraits of young men with 90’s style haircuts. Not really warm and inviting just somewhat worn down. Just as I started thinking about how the place could really use makeover I was called up to take a seat.
The haircut was good and didn’t take long at all, the stylist was friendly and reminded me of how I should get my hair cut in the future. Despite being very quick she conferred with me several times and made sure that my hair was cut the way that I wanted it cut.
Here comes the bad…
As I entered my vehicle it hit me all at once, she didn’t dust all of the little hairs off of me before uncovering me and therefore I was off to the start of a very itchy day! So as decent of an experience this was, I can say without a doubt that the itchy feeling that I have had all day will always serve as a reminder to me to stay far away from this little shop! I still gave it four stars because the haircut was fast and good, only cost 11 dollars, and staff was friendly.

Best place for my haircut. I always go to Young. I went here from 2000 – 2008. Lived in Texas from 2008 – 2011 and when I came back to Oregon, I am back here and very happy to have Young cut my hair again.

Diep has been cutting my hair for a very long time – and she keeps me looking great!

I just got a haircut there and I was completely dissatisfied. I’m not sure of her name but I had my hair cut by one of the Vietnamese ladies there. I asked the lady for a 1 guard on the sides & back and to scissor cut the top. I verbally said «scissor cut» while I physically showed her the length I wanted it to be which was finger length. Easy, right? She started out using scissors for the top and then used clippers to even it out. ??? I thought she was cleaning up my fade (which looks horrible, btw) but she was actually clipping the hair I asked her to scissor cut. On top of that, she cut off my bangs! No warning whatsoever. I thought she was done and then she grabbed the scissors and cut ‘em off. They ended up being shorter than the rest of my hair. Ridiculous. I will NEVER go back there again. Worst money on a haircut I have ever spent.
There are very few things in this world more infuriating than getting a bad haircut. You can’t do anything about it, especially when it’s too short to fix. YOU have to walk around looking like an idiot even though someone was completely responsible.

Young is the best and I don’t go to anyone else. She has been cutting my hair for more than ten years (?). Eleven bucks, good, and fast. Tip her well; she is worth it.

I love going here to get my hair cut and have been going to these ladies for years. They’re friendly and as I’ve gotten to know them, they’ve become familiar with family events and want to get to know you. You’re not just another number to them like you would be at another barber shop.
I’m not that picky when it comes to getting my hair cut, but that’s probably due to them never messing up and the vast experience they have there. When I started going there years ago, I was leery about having the other women cut my hair besides Young. Throughout the years I’ve learned that no matter who cuts my hair, it’s going to be done great.
The staff here is remarkable and always does what they can to get it perfect for you… Yes even You, (the picky complaining S.O.B.)… hahaha. You know who I’m talking about.
The wait time is always less than 10 minutes and they’re great about trying to get you in and out, so you can go on with your day, unless you’re me and they love to chat… hahaha
Overall Review:
Staff: ⁵⁄₅
Price: ⁵⁄₅
Cleanliness: ⁵⁄₅

Young cuts my hair all the time — and I would never go to anyone else! I’ve recommended Young to a few friends who now go to her religiously. The atmosphere is nice, and it never takes more than half hour (with waiting) to be in and out.
