Cost Cutters

Hair stylist Lindsey was amazing!
I went into cost cutters to get my first ever perm. I have naturally curly hair. I wasn’t sure my hair would hold a perm.
Lindsey asked me questions and I showed her photographs of what I wanted my hair to look like. She expertly washed and prepared my hair. She gently rolled my hair into the tiniest little perm rods. It took a long time and she was so patient and very professional. Every stylist in the salon was attentive to their customers and appropriately friendly. I was in the salon for 3 hours and I was able to experience how wonderful everyone interacted.
Lindsey finished my hair and I was absolutely pleasantly shocked by how amazingly well the perm had taken to my hair.
It looked wonderful beyond my expectations! I am so so pleased by the results, the professionalism and the quality of the products.
I’m still on cloud nine and can’t stop admiring the lovely end result to my super tight perm.
I recommend this salon. The cost was very reasonable and the products I purchased work well.
Thank you Lindsey!
I am so happy

I had a great experience at this shop. There were a couple of other people ahead of me but didn’t have to wait any longer than 15 minutes to get into the chair. The stylist was a nice guy and did a great job on my hair. Plus I thought it was hilarious that he looked like Keith Richards so now I can tell everyone I had my hair cut by one of the Rolling Stones. Definitely would recommend and have to my friends even if just to get a hair cut from Keith Richards!

Went in to see Jim, he did such a great job, made my whole day! He is the best barber on Broadway ! Also he can recommend a great cut and products to keep your style looking sharp !

Not Your Daddy’s Hair Salon
My father was a hairstylist. As a result, I can be a bit fussy when it comes to salons and the like. Beforehand, I imagined Cost Cutters as a lowbrow, low quality establishment, best suited for cheap, simple haircuts for kids and unpicky adults. My misconceptions ended up slapping me squarely in the face, however. Cost Cutters is a modern, clean and professional hair salon.
I tried Cost Cutters on a whim one day. I was in dire need of a neck trimming and lineup. My regular barber was on vacation. Brianna, a personable and talented stylist hooked me up. The entire ordeal was fast and painless; and, I was very pleased with the end result. I later brought a friend in to have his hair cut. She did an excellent job there, too.
Aside from neck trims and haircuts, Cost Cutters also offers the following:
*Color
*Facial Waxing
*Highlights
*Perm
*Shampoo & Condition w/​cut
*Shampoo & Style Finish w/​cut
Cost Cutters is a great place. Brianna and stylists like her make it even better!

Yeah… if you get Jim, check your mop for left over long strands. The girls are great, however. I recommend this place only if saving a buck.

It’s only a matter of time before this place gets shutdown.
I walk in to get a quick fade at 3:50PM on a Monday. As soon as I go to sit down and wait, I’m immediately told by a man with long-​gray hair that there will be a 45-​minute wait, yet there wasn’t a single person waiting in line. The whole place was empty except for the one lady that was in the middle of getting her hair cut by him.
I asked why the wait was so long and he said it’s because he’s the only one working.
3:50PM on a Monday and Cost Cutters only has one employee working? Also, if you have one employee working, wouldn’t you think that spending 45+ minutes on one person is incredibly foolish? This was the second time in a week that I’ve left because of ridiculous wait times. If it wasn’t such a short walk from my house, I’d probably never go back.

WORST HAIRCUT IN MY ENTIRE LIFE!!! I don’t understand why they’re getting the Unilocal rating that they are receiving after looking at other people’s reviews as well as my own (as most of them are one star). It’s been approximately three and a half months since I had my haircut at the Cost Cutters on Alameda and Broadway. I had an older fella (John?) with long gray hair as my barber or hairdresser. I asked him to give me a short conservative look. I should have been concerned when he turned my chair facing away from the mirror. He spent approximately 10 to 12 minutes working on my hair and turned me around and I was shocked. He had scalped to me leaving gaps and long uneven strands of hair all over the top my head. I didn’t know what to do. I got up left the salon in shock. I would not advise anyone to use this Cost Cutters and stay away from the fellow with a long gray hair. I usually try not to write negative Unilocal reviews, but after reflecting on this for three and a half months of waiting for my hair to grow out, I thought other people deserve at least a little «heads up» on their hair cutting selection.

I went there the other day and the so-​called greeter was rude and nasty. Oh, and this place STILL doesn’t have online check-​in.

The staff are friendly and competent.
The cuts are cheap.
You get what you ask for. Their hair products are reasonably priced and I like the tea tree line of products.
I get my haircut here at least once a month and have not been disappointed.
Some people complain that the old bloke who cuts hair smells of cigarettes. Yes he does but he is also a hoot and you are always welcome to ask someone else to cut your hair.
The scissor cuts are very good value.

Ok, some of you have read my last hair cut review. Well Cassandra is awesome. Fantastic price, nice company, good experience! She is really busy — as you might expect.

Whether it’s a last minute job interview or you’re too broke to head to a posh stylist — sometimes you gotta get a haircut the quick and dirty way. On occasion, I prefer this one night stand version of haircuts — because you don’t have any kind of relationship (nor do you intend to build one) you can tell them just how you like it — no talking, lights on, no false promises.
I’ve never had to wait here, I’ve always breezed right in and breezed right back out again. Note to the Atkins crowd though — the delicious smells of bread baking leak over from the Subway next door. It’s downright cruel if you’re hungry. But a decent haircut for less than $ 20 can be a lifesaver when you’re desperate and shaggy.
