Kay-Mar Barbers

My dad has dementia, he always wants things the same way, especially his hair cut. My dad has had a regular barber in ELA and I took him out of his normal, and asked him to try a different barber. We stepped in the shop and this cowboy guy (who might be the owner) was racist. this barber was so rude he told us to go back to the other barber. and his workers were Mexican. all I asked was, how much is it to make his lil boy line in his head he really wants it. He said 25 $ and the haircut 10 $ wow. they were rude and we were the nicest people we could be. I wanted to refuse to pay. My dad goes to his barber for 8 $ and she makes him happy,

According to some of the reviews, the «barbers» at this place treat people with mental disabilities and children badly. Based on that alone, I chose not to go here. I HOPE YOU GO OUT OF BUSINESS. Treating the most vulnerable members of our society badly is a despicable thing to do. Of course, I don’t expect anyone who is employed by this place to read a Unilocal review, but if it keeps one person from going there it was worth my time.

.01÷5 if I could rate it that. BEWARE. I sent my mentally handicapped brother to cut his hair here and it breaks my heart to hear how they treated him. Apparently some old man yells at my brother «we don’t wash dirty hair here, go wash it at the gas station». His hair wasn’t dirty, he had gel in it. After going to wash his hair at a gas station my brother comes back and tells the guy what hair cut he wants and the guy tells him to go to another barber shop and not to come back! Because of my brothers condition, if you told him to do anything, he will do it. He doesn’t know better. How disgusting can you be?!? I hope your business fails because no one deserves to be emotionally abused for the sake of your financial income. You are such a shallow human being.

i’ve been coming here since 2002 and have always been pleased with the service here. wonderful place and great price! a no frills barbershop with nice barbers and great service.

Fuck this place I’ve been coming here for a few montha now and never had a problem but today a barber refused to cut my sons hair because he was asking for a tablet to use while he was getting his cut like he always doses I refuse to spend my time and money at a place that treats customers like this. This pace is not worthy of a single start

You get what you pay for if you get the Mexican barber. Everyone else is great. He doesn’t know what «trim» means and shaved my head. I look dumb and am very pissed. He also did not fit my side burns

Terrible place. You can’t choose which barber you want so the chances of you getting a bad haircut is high. Not to be racist but the mexican barbers suck ass. They dont understand english and they cant cut hair. I asked for a trim and my head was basically shaved. They do not care and its sloppy. But what do you expect for such a cheap haircut, obviously these barbers have no skill.

Cheap, quick, standard male haircuts. Coming here for quite a while when ever I have had short hair, prices alone, with usually quick service is important, you can’t pick which barber but that doesn’t matter since they really all so the same job with same quality based on my experience.
Parking is sometimes a little problematic it is a strip mall with maybe 20 spots and about 6 businesses.

My fortune cookie found this barber shop through Unilocal,and decided to give it a shot. Great price… can’t beat $ 6.25. Polite and fast with professional service. Highly recommended.

$ 6.75 for a hair cut. $ 5.75 for a shave.
Cash only. They do great work. I was in and out in 20 minutes.
This is a no-​frills place.

I have had my hair cut once before with them and the barber did a great job. My second visit was not so great. I sat down and explained the style I wanted and the barber informed me that they do not do «those hair cuts here». I saw the barber who cut my hair the last time and mentioned that he cut my hair the same way last time. He still wanted to argue so I said «Have a great day!» and walked out. I have never met a barber who would not cut hair they way I asked. They just lost another customer forever.

Don’t go. Cheap cut but they are rude. Unless your former military and say that they just don’t care and cut your hair the way they think it should be. And don’t ever let them cut your beard. Worst ever. I will never be back

Never again will I take my son here, the old guy made a comment about my son with disabilities. It made me furious. I wish they came on here and read the reviews so they change their ways. I rather pay more money and get treated right. If we can give negative stars I would. Please don’t go here.

wow. i just read all the reviews from people crying about anything and everything. well, i’ve been going to kay mar for at least 20 years. i don’t even remember when i got my first cut there. maybe i was drunk next door at the bar and decided i looked like crap. who knows?
but they’ve (almost) always been consistent, fast, and cheap. i’ve seen them in good moods and bad. hurried and in slow motion. when they’re pissed off, i can sympathize, because i saw the jack ass with too much gel in his hair while i was waiting. i see your kids crying and fidgeting while a guy holding scissors is trying not to add to his ear collection.
here’s how to resolve those issues…
don’t style your hair before getting a haircut. what’s the point? you know you look like a hobo, that’s why you’re going to get a haircut. do you really think you need to look good for your drive down there? jeez… just wash it before you leave the house and deal with it. hell, put on a hat and dark glasses if you’re worried about someone recognizing your scraggly-​ass in the 10 minutes it takes to drive there. and, you gotta wash it when they’re done anyway, right? unless you like the feeling of prickly hairs in your collar…
and kids? the only people who think your 4 year old looks cool with a fauxhawk are other parents with 4 year old kids. just grab a bowl and some scissors and save everyone the hassle. save the style for when he starts dating.
i’m not gonna say this place is perfect. i’ve had some bad haircuts there, but considering 20+ years, once a month, not enough to count.
and it’s hair. if you have enough to cut, more than likely it’s gonna grow back.
bad customer service? it’s a bunch of guys cutting hair all day for cheap. it ain’t the VIP lounge at south coast plaza with free champagne. honestly, if i had to cut, i dunno, 30 – 50 people’s hair a day for the rest of my life, i’d end up locked away somewhere that woudn’t allow me to have scissors.
give ‘em a break. they’re barbers. their job is to cut off all the hair you grew since the last time. don’t expect them to make your life better, that’s your job. and a new haircut can help. i mean, it makes me feel better…
so shut up, sit down, relax, make small talk if you have to, and in 10 minutes it’ll all be over and you can go back to writing bad Unilocal reviews about how the sushi place didn’t have enough napkins last night, or the gas station attendant yelled at you because you forgot which side your tank was on…

I’ve been coming here for about three years after my barber of twenty years retired. Basic haircut under $ 7 is a great bargain. This is a no frills, men’s barbershop. I have been pretty lucky in getting decent haircuts, but my hair is short and easy. If you’re under 30 or if you need mousse, gel or special attention, well, brother, this is the WRONG place for YOU. (No «Jersey Shore» or metrosexual clientele allowed.) Over the course of three years, I have come to the following conclusions:
1) Most all of the barbers loathe children
2) Most all of the barbers loathe women
3) Most all of the barbers REALLY loathe women bringing in their children
4) Dads, they not only loathe your sons, too, but loathe you almost as much as the moms who bring their sons
5) If your kid is only a little guy, and you want to have the same barber cut your hair, too dam bad for you.
6) Ironically, most of them have bubble gum for the kids just like the old days. Go figure.
7) If your kid is, maybe, I’d say five or six and up, it’s not too bad and they don’t throw you the ol’ stink-​eye when getting ready for the cut.
All the one star reviews? Yeah, I’ve pr’y seen it happen. Two stars? Yup. Four stars? I’ve probably experienced your review, too. Five? Well, I doubt anyone gave it five… I certainly wouldn’t… Three seems pretty accurate for my very limited needs.
I will continue patronage because my needs are simple and limited. Beware of the crappiest of crappy parking situations. Beware of the disdain they hold for women and children. Beware they sometimes close early. Beware the need to bring CASH ONLY. Otherwise it’s «A-​Ok.»

Worst place to get a haircut. I can see why they charge only $ 6.75. No pride in what they do. It’s all about the speed for these guys. Avoid at all cost and go to a real barber for $ 10-​$ 12 bucks. At least you won’t regret it!!!

I’ve been going here since i was very very young (1993). Its been okay most of the years but a slightly stressful environment. Most of the barbers here know what they are doing but there is one slightly fat guy who just absolutely refuses to cut hair well I really hate this place because you cant choose who cuts your hair and if you get stuck with this fat d bag you are guaranteed to look like a straight goon.

Buyer BEWARE of this place all the way around. Horrible haircut! Add to it… Horrible customer service. Grumpy old men barbers. Impolite to little kids and condescending of women. I could not believe my eyes and ears. Cheap cuts? This is why. You definitely get what u pay for here. Rushed, Messed up haircuts at best. Crooked lines. You’ve been warned. Parking is also limited. And They closed at 4pm (earlier than posted hours which say 4:30).

My father-​in-​law wanted a particular barber because the other one had messed his hair up time after time. The bad barber yelled at him and told him to get out and not come back. No customer service.

Sat down and asked for a tapered line up and a beard trim. The guy didn’t understand what a tapered line up is. «So a regular haircut then?» he says. «No. A tappered line up.» I said. After a little more clarifying what I meant he says ok and precedes with the simple line up I requested. He finishes and says $ 6.25 (which is the price of a haircut there.) I give him a ten, say thanks, and walk out. I remember I wanted a beard trim also so I turn back around and the guy locks the door. I look at the time and see theres ten minutes left till the posted open to close hours are up, I ask about a beard trim and the guy says, sorry were going home. Wish I wouldn’t have tipped him a dime. And I will never be going back here. Lazy & unprofessional, I’ll take my business elsewhere.
