Old Mission Barbershop

For the record, I really wanted to like this place because I've walked by for years admiring the vibe and interior. I didn’t have an appointment so I did a walk in with whoever was available. The barber who was available was actually really nice and really easy to talk to which is why I’m leaving 2 stars as opposed to 1. I requested a simple low taper fade just to clean up my sides. My barber (who I won't name because I understand that this is how they make a living and I wouldn't want to effect that) shaved much higher than expected despite the “low” in low taper fade i requested. My hair also seems to be pretty unblended and there is a huge contrast in length. So after asking for a low taper fade- I don’t really feel like my cut is “low” nor is it faded. Peers have told me it looks more like a sharp mohawk/mullet which is great if that was what i asked for however I was getting a haircut to because I have a few joy interviews and I need to take a passport photo. So yes, a mohawk is objectively sicc as hell but I’ll have to use this passport photo for the next 10 yrs and meet potentials employers like this. Obviously, your experience may vary. I know there are plenty of returning clients that love this place and I'm very happy for them. I don’t think I personally would come back again because I paid $50 + tip which is a lot for what I got. You may want to keep that in mind if you're in the same boat.

This is probably the worst barbershop I’ve ever been to in my life. This is my neck after a beard trim and this is after me telling him he needs to do the neck. I don’t know where the hell these guys get their training. Had to go to Walgreens and do it myself before an event I had in less than 30 minutes. Very inconvenient and burdened me excessively and wasted my money. Would never come here.

Wow, this became my place to go For a barber. Everybody was so nice, speak English and Spanish. I am super picky with my hair, and I was really happy either way my hairstyle
