Kyle’s BarberShop

Kyle just gave me the best haircut I’ve had in years. Found him using Unilocal,he was available for a quick walk-​in and I’m defiantly coming back every time I’m in San Francisco!

When I found out Kyle left Fellow Barber to open his own shop I couldn’t have been happier. Finally, a shop that takes appointments for those of us with 9-to-5’s mixed with the talent of a barber who knows all the tricks of the trade to give a proper cut. Whether it’s a beard trim, or «a little off the top with a 1 ½ fade on the sides,» Kyle always takes time to ask all the detailed questions to ensure you walk out feeling fresh and clean. Plus, he’s super laid back and an all around good guy – which makes for a great haircut experience every time.

Kyle is an amazing stylist. He’s been cutting my hair for well over a year, and it’s perfect every time. He’s got great skills for any type of hair, and he listens really well. On top of being a master at cutting hair, he’s a great person and a pleasure to deal with and talk to. Can’t recommend him enough!

Kyle is simply the best — relaxed, easy going and knowledgeable. I was peppering him with questions about shaving products, quality and price and he had an answer to each one.
Yet, what I like about Kyle the most is that he’s conscious about how people spend their money and get the most value out of their buck. That shows the amount of consideration he provides to his customers.
Lastly, his precision and attention to detail provide an amazing finish. Rarely do I get a haircut that is even on both sides.
Do yourself a favor and give him a try !!

Just got done at Kyle’s Barbershop.
I was really worried because I have african-​american hair and im sure you guys know that most barbers in SF are not good with this type of hair.
But that being said, Kyle did an excellent job with my shadow fade. Highly recommend him.

I’ve been looking for a good barber and Kyle lived up to his reviews. He gave me a really good fade, lined up my beard, did not rush through it, and was very kind. I will definitely be going back.

Kyle has been cutting my hair for more than a year now and that’s because he does a great job: he takes the time to get clear on what I want, he cares about the craft to do it right and he pays attention to the details. Plus, he’s easy to talk to (when I’m in the mood to talk, which isn’t always the case).
As a major benefit, Kyle uses a great system for taking and managing reservations, so no more hours wasted waiting to be next in line.

Super haircut! Kyle is great!!! Definitely will come back next time I am in San Francisco.

Well trained barber right downtown. Gives a great cut for a good price.

As a European expatriate, I can say that this is the best barber I’ve been to in the US.
Very meticulous, professional and friendly.
I highly recommend and would definitely go again !

I have never been to a more meticulous or consistent barber before. You know that feeling when you walk into a room and you know that you’re hair clowns on everyone else’s? Yeah, you probably don’t know that feeling UNLESS Kyle has cut your hair. On point. Every time.

I stumbled into Kyle’s small but homely barbershop after wandering to several locations near embarcadero that either wouldn’t take a walk in or wanted to close early. Three lessons.
When I cut hair, albeit unprofessionally, I find so much joy in the artistic process it amazes me that barbers in the area don’t see a new person and get excited at the next project ahead. Kyle’s passion for barbering is definitely a plus that most people don’t notice. Passion is first.
Coming from a fellow barber (albeit an amateur one) who purely learned everything from other talented barbers and online forums/​videos, Kyle knows a great deal about everything there is to know about cutting hair/​barbering/​hairstyling/​hair history/​hair culture. Knowledge is second. This is an offshoot of passion. He, like myself, would watch several videos online and pour over forums.
Having cut hair for several friends and my own hair, I know the challenges of pleasing the toughest critic – myself because you can. Kyle does an amazing job of understanding and utilizing the needs of the customer. He knew exactly what I was asking for on 4 different things I requested (ie. how the shape would grow out, how I wanted something blended). Skill and fitting your skill to the customer’s needs comes third. Without the passion to learn more techniques and styles Kyle would not have been able to acquire the technical prowess to fulfill every need that I have as a client. He even went beyond that and recommended a solution to fixing how my hair would grow out that (2 weeks from the cut) has been working very well.
I’ve been to top notch barbers, hairstylists, and cut tough customers and Kyle is at the top of my list when it comes to getting a nice haircut.
My only concern is that he serves such a wealthy clientele that as a young college graduate it is slightly out of my budget. Definitely very VERY worth it though.

I take my haircuts seriously and also seriously stress out when I try someone new — I can honestly say this was the best cut I have gotten in recent memory (10 years?). Kyle is legit and laid back and does awesome work. I will be excited to go back!

Best barber in the city! Kyle is a very talented barber and the nicest person ever. Highly recommend!

Kyle you are a magician! How did you make me look like a movie star? For all men out there wanting an excellent above-​and-​beyond cut, Kyle is your guy. As soon as I walked in he was friendly and happy to help. He took his time and really paid attention to the small details. I’m definitely coming back. Thanks dude!

There I was… a few hours away from my wedding, in desperate need of a trim and a shave. And then i stumbled onto Kyle’s small but awesome establishment. Kyle is a master of his craft– he listened to what I wanted, made suggestions, and deftly used his clippers, scissors, and blade to give me the best haircut I’ve ever had… the kind that LOOKS effortless but is anything but.
If there were six stars possible, this place would be worth seven.

Kyle’s an amazing barber and so far, the only barber that I could trust with my hair. He’s amazingly consistent with the cut and he always keeps the cut classy. His new place has fantastic atmosphere and he has a lot of cool antiques in the place. Also, the appointment system here is really intuitive and easy. And the location is convenient, it’s like a minute walk away from Bart. Overall it’s always an awesome cut with Kyle and I’ll definitely keep coming back.

Hands down best experince at a barbershop! Came to cut my hair after having grown it out a bit and left the shop feeling brand new. Super cool guy and his own spot is really nice to get a cut in. Kyles got a lot of talent and great demeanor with customers. Makes you feel really welcomed and thats important especially when youre gonna sit and talk for the time of your cut. Def coming back!

Thank God Kyle finally has his own shop. I’ve been seeing Kyle at Fellow Barber for awhile and have never received such a consistently perfect haircut in my life. Now that he’s on his own and you don’t have to deal with the disaster of an experience that Fellow Barber provides, life is good.
Waste no more time, book your appointment now (just not too many of you, I still want an appointment). This guy deserves your business.

Kyle is an amazing barber, he has real talent and a passion for barbering. The shop is awesome the atmosphere is awesome, the haircuts that Kyle does are always right on the money and consistent and the straight razor shaves are the best I will not get my haircut anywhere else! Kyle you are the barber master keep it up!
