Legends Barbershop

Highly recommend trying the burritos. Ask them for the specials. In all seriousness, this place is reliable, great on detail and I highly recommend getting a fresh cut here. It’s called «Legends» for a reason. Shout out to Jonathan Aye.

Some of the best barbers in the bay! Been going for a few months now and has not missed a step! I prefer to go to Jonathan, fades are crisp and a razor line up to top it off.
If you’re new: BOOK YOUR APPOINTMENT ONLINE OR ON THE GENBOOK APP!
CUTS ARE PRIMARILY BY APPOINTMENT
Also know what you want before you’re in the chair!

Worst haircut in 20 years. I ask for a combover fade and I don’t know what I got. I have never been so disappointed about haircut till now. I would never refer anyone.

B did a great job on cutting my hair. He took his time and did exactly what I asked him. Great place, should go. Be sure to take an appointment before going. :)

I came here to get a straight-​razor shave before I grew out my mustache for several months. I just wanted to get the experience. The service was great. The guy was very professional. I think I’ll come back here for a haircut soon

This place used to be my go-​to barbershop. It’s nearby and it wasn’t too expensive plus I got really quality cuts by Don.
This is no longer true because Taper Gang (the old barbers) moved and opened their own barbershop.
My last time going here was in August and I had just recently gotten cartilage piercings that hurt like a b****. I couldn’t even sleep on them, so touching them was definitely out of the question. I had my hair cut by a new guy and I told him that I just got piercings so he needed to be careful around them.
I had never felt so much pain during a haircut before.
When I left, my ear was as red as it could be and I had a bad and uneven fade. This used to be the place that I recommended to all of my friends, but not anymore.

Mike is awesome. Came in, knew nothing, and Mike gave me a better cut than I could have dreamed of. Super nice guy. Thanks for turning me from an acorn head to a man! Well worth the $ 25!

Great quality work from Mike, he’s been taking care of me for years, and many more to come. It’s well worth the money, great atmosphere too
Highly recommend everyone to go at least 1 time, be sure to book ahead of time! They fill up fast.

Amazing service and incredibly talented and professional Barbers for all styles. I highly recommend this place. Ask for B because that’s who cut my hair and I am extremely satisfied. Everyone else there that got hair cuts by the other barbers looked on point aswell. Truly living up to their name.

this place may have good barbers (never found out) but man are they pathetic in their customer service skills. very first time here so I certainly did not know the in’s and out’s of the joint. sat down for 15 minutes without a single acknowledgement from anyone working there. 2 other dudes working there came in and immediately hopped on their phones slouched down and started youtubing and playing angry birds (at least TRY to be professional). after enough waiting I asked if they even did walk-​ins or cut anyone’s hair, and was told i’d have to wait an additional 45 minutes to see if the next appointment will cancel. sorry gonna pass on that great offer. 4 barbers, 2 people having their hair cuts and 2 really great employees hunched over on their phone. good job legends, that was a non-​haircut I will always remember.

This is hands down the BEST barbershop in the South and East Bay. I been going here since they opened, and it’s been nothing but outstanding service, and the dopest cuts ever since. Straight razor line up after the haircut too at no extra cost. I get my hair cut by Mike and he truly understands customer service. I have to book appointments 3 weeks in advance, so when I get a cut, I book my next one as I walk out but it’s well worth it. If I ever need a quick cut and couldn’t get an appointment, I just hit up Mike and he finds me a spot somewhere. This place truly understands customer service and satisfaction. Would recommend to anyone.

They took me in regardless without an appointment and Mike fixed up my fade to IMO perfection. I didn’t know their pricing and just brought a 20 so I was short but Mike was cool about it! Supercuts failed me and Legends saved me I’m definitely gonna be back yee!

Mike gave me my first personalized haircut. Considering the time and effort he put, it does justify the price and the wait.
The negative Unilocal reviews are not due to bad quality /​service but from individuals who are oblivious to the fact that quality takes time, these people are hard to please and Legends would have been doomed to a low rating from such people regardless of the outcome, disregard these opinions.

First cut at Legends today, I walk in, pretty humble establishment. B is still on his previous customer so I am asked to wait, no worries, I sit down. This gave me a chance to notice these guys in action and man they are in almost like a trance like rhythm. I was so impressed to see the artistic style B employed with his clipper, almost like brush strokes. I was assured that I was in good hands. Came to know they only take Cash, no worries, next door store has an ATM. Came back with the cash, B was ready for me. I sit down, tell him what I need and then for next 30 minutes he was sculpting (no kidding) my next haircut, I never saw such a dedication from my barber. The clippers ran so much on my head, I felt like I got a head massage. The final result was exactly like I wanted and was faultless. B didn’t talk too much and I am not a talkative type either, so we were a perfect match. I gave a hefty tip as I was so glad (not every time though B ;-)) I am definitely coming back.
PS: I gave 4 stars as I will keep a note for next 2 – 3 times and if they are consistent in what they do, I will change the review to 5 stars. Definitely recommend these guys.

I loved the work that they did. I just wish there were less talking among the workers and more on me.

Clean shop, B was professional, He cleans and sanitize his equipments, and the hair cut I got was just how I want it.

My buddy recommended me to find Jordan at Legends Barber shop and made the drive out from Sunnyvale to Legends. I came in with my hair looking like a scruffy mutt. Jordan knowing it was my first time, took his time to get my hair style right. Jordan is meticulous and fixed up my hair into a very slick style. Find Jordan. Book online and book early.

Been going here for quite some time now. Only found this place because my barber since high school, Don, started cutting hair here. It’s a bit far for me, but well worth it since Don is a great barber and its also hard to find a barber I can trust. This place is great for guys look for really clean and suave looking cuts.
The atmosphere here is really chill. They usually have either sports, a movie, music videos, or a TV show playing on their new large TV. From time to time they would be playing music as well. All the barbers are really friendly and always greet people when they come in. It’s best to schedule an appointment head of time since almost all the barbers are always booked (2 weeks in advance if you want the time and day you really want). The place is always clean and the bathroom in the back is also clean.
Only negative I would say about this place would be the small amount of seating for people that are waiting. Other than that the shop is great.
Make sure you don’t miss it if you’re a first timer. It’s kind of hidden and the parking lot is in the back. It’s right next door to a liquor store so look for that if you’re lost.

I used to love this place because of their streamlined appointment system and the quality of service they provided, but the last 3 times my son went here for a haircut, his appointment was pushed back between a half hour to an hour.
We get no phone call, in advance, to tell us that they are running behind. It’s only when we show up that they tell us … oh we are behind and you have the option to wait or make a new appointment, which can be several weeks from that date.
We are only able to make appointments evenings or Saturdays so the times available is quite limited. Plus when we do make appointments we schedule our other appointments around it. I expected that if I have an appointment (a time slot allotted to me) that it is honored and not pushed back on the day of without warning.
I will be looking for a new place for my son to get a haircut, one that honors their appointment times.

I’m heading to Coachella later this week so a haircut was needed for two reasons. 1) It’s expected to be in the 90s so I had to ditch my shaggy hair to counter the heat and 2) Gotta look good.
I usually go to Sleek Salon in Fremont where Kelly does an awesome job but she was fully booked over the weekend. Since I had to head down to Valley Fair Mall from work yesterday, I thought I’d find a place in between my office and the mall. After looking up a few places on Unilocal,I settled on Legends Barbershop in Milpitas.
I made an appointment on their website the night before for yesterday, Monday at 7pm. They usually close at 7pm during the week but they’ll take after hour appointments for an extra $ 10. I didn’t think a $ 30 haircut was that unreasonable even though I usually spend $ 15 – 20 but I thought what the heck.
ATMOSPHERE: It’s a total dude place. Nothing fancy about it, a few mounted flat screen TVs, several barber chairs and a mellow vibe. All the barbers are young, somewhere in their late 20s to mid 30s. All chill guys.
SERVICE and HAIRCUT: When I set my appointment, I didn’t specify which barber I wanted even though you can choose between Mike, Jay, J.R., Jordon, Don or Josh. I just clicked «No Preference». However, when I showed up, I got exactly who I wanted. Several other Unilocalers mentioned Jay and that’s who I got. He was a really cool guy. Down to earth, mellow, chills and listened to everything I wanted. This haircut experience was different than any other one I’ve ever had because it took about 45 minutes. They really take their time making sure to touch on every detail. They take out an old fashion blade at the end and clean up anything their clippers can’t cut.
OUTCOME: Jay went a little tight on the sides which is something I’m not a big fan of. He also styled my hair in a way I’m not too keen on either. However, when I got home, rinsed off and did my hair, I really liked it. Yeah, it’s a little tight on the sides but that can be avoided next time. Plus, I told him what I wanted plus a small change because I was looking for something different so I told him to run with it. Other than the sides, he did a great job all around. My hair is even and very well cut. I would totally go back.
I guess I can’t complain too much about my sides being tight. The forecast calls HEAT this weekend so anything to help cool down is, well, COOL!
