The Uppercut

I have been a customer of Dominico’s for 6 years. I followed him to the Uppercut when he relocated here. I am female and he does a superb job of cutting and coloring my hair. He is a seasoned professional and does a wonderful job. Accommodating schedule as well.

This is a group of fantastic and dedicated stylists for both men and women. We have had our hair done by Chanara for over 20 yrs now ! We always repent it when we use one of the Supercuts or GreatClips type salons. For those who gave a low rating, most of the stylist who work here work only by appointments and have a regular customer base they work with. So if you walk in they may all be busy for the rest of the day. If you are lucky, they are available it might be your lucky day.

Really really love this place. When I moved to Mtn View 2 years ago, I spent the first few months trying, in vain, to find a good barbershop.
Whether it was poor service, quality, price, or a combination of all three, I was left disappointed on my first 3 – 4 tries. Finally, I found The Uppercut and I haven’t looked back since.
Tim, in particular, is the man. He’s extremely friendly and good at his job — I haven’t had to provide my preferences since my 2^nd or 3^rd visit — I just sit down and prepare to be entertained by good barbershop conversation for the next 30 minutes!
It’s not the cheapest cut, but honestly, I can’t imagine going anywhere else at this point. In fact — despite the fact that I’ll be moving up to the city soon, I still plan on making the pilgrimage down to Sunnyvale once/​month to visit my favorite barbershop!

Cannot recommend this place just due to poor customer service.
Was told bu the older woman that there is only 2 people working and they are busy.
I guess it is not lile a barber Shop where you wait in line.

Confession — I’ve got the difficult-​to-​cut Asian spikey-​hair. I’ve even given stylists hair splinters! :o
Was a long-​timer at Hair International until I found this gem. Would highly recommend Maria — she’s awesome. She takes the time to get the cut right so that it grows in evenly instead of looking like a chia-​pet. I’ve never found anyone else who can do that on a consistent basis for me.

Really love this place. Very clean and spacious, very friendly, and lots of talented stylists. We followed Chanara Chen here and we are very happy we did. We have made mistakes in the past and gone to other places, whether because they were more local or more cheap. And yes we have gotten the kids’ hair butchered at SuperCuts. In the end the only thing we learned is that you need to find a great stylist and stick with them because they know what they’re doing, and they know you!
If you want to make a great, lasting relationship, definitely walk in here and ask for Chanara.

I went here at 4pm on a Monday. I didn’t see anything that indicated that they should be closed on a Monday, but the lights were off and the doors were locked.
Maybe they went out of business, or maybe they are closed mondays?

I decided I would try this place again, but this time for the full deal. A haircut. I was booked with a new stylist, Angel, and I am soooooooo happy I did. I would highly recommend her to people in the area looking for a good cut. She’s new to the area and charges between $ 40-​$ 60. After my last fiasco from another salon, I was so happy when I left Angel’s scissors.
Check her out!

I have been being «shorn» at the Uppercut since before they moved from the Town Center. The people are great, the service top notch. They handle walk in’s or «I just found out am leaving on a plane tomorrow morning, please…» and they take it in stride.
The only nit is parking can be a bit of a bear but it’s manageable.

I vowed never to go back to supercuts ever again, but finding a new place took persistence. finally, I found a competent barber! I made an appt. with Steve over at the uppercut, and unfortunately my first experience was a bit of a disappointment, because when I showed up for my appt., steve wasn’t there, apparently he was stuck in traffic. but, I was resolved to give this place a chance, so, I rescheduled and went down there to see Steve and it was great! he’s a really friendly, professional master barber and he completely understood everything I wanted. he was very careful to ask me about length and thickness and everything, and he uses scissors! I’ve gotten so used to everyone using clippers, so how refreshing to see someone using scissors. anyways, after a very thorough haircut, he finished and asked me what I thought, and I asked him to take it in more in back and the sides, and he said no problem! he was really nice about everything. I’m glad I went and I hope you go see him… hopefully he won’t retire anytime soon!!!

Barber shop for the men on one side, beauty shop for women on the other side! clean, nice, good barbers and beauticians. I never need to bring in a picture or anything, they are good.
Kudos!
