Justin’s Barber Shop

so here’s the deal. I’m really picky about who cuts my hair. i can walk into a shop and then walk out just because i don’t like the way person looks or i don’t like the way i feel when i walk in the place. i know crazy right? anyhow, i have not had a regular person for my hair in about five years. i pretty much go somewhere different every time i get a haircut. this is finally changing. I’ve gone two Justin’s 3 times in a row now (which is a record for me). the last two times my hair was cut by Robert. He has done a great job both times even though i asked for a different haircut both times. not very different but definitely not the same. either way I will definitely have Robert cut my hair from now on! I finally have a regular spot again!!!

Hands down THE best barber shop. Fresh, clean cut and for only $ 15. The wait was not long at all and everyone was super down to earth and funny. When you go ask for Henry he is the homie.

Justin & his staff are awesome! I’ve brought my 3 year old son here on two separate occasions so far. Both times the barbers that worked with my son were great! Cutting a small child’s hair isn’t always fun but they are calm & patient. They work quickly and do a GREAT job. My son has been asking to go back ever since his first visit and was thrilled to go today. My husband and son are now regular customers due to the great value at Justin’s shop. Thank you! Please check them out!

I recommend this spot good barbers good price and good service prosper always does an excellent job as well as the other barbers I will definitely be coming back I drive here from westminster and it’s worth the drive. CHECK THIS GUY’S OUT GOOD BARBER SHOP!

Came here about 2 months ago but forgot to write a review. I brought my 13 month old son here for a cute little pomp. The guy that helped us was amazing! He was super calm and patient with my squirmy son. I am coming back today and will hopefully get the same service.

First time checking them out for a cut… The wait time was quick in the early afternoon. Robert did an awesome job. Robert took his time to make sure the cut was properly done, unlike some places that kinda rush through the cut just so they can get another person in the seat. I’ll definitely be coming back for my next cut.

Great place. Walk-​in. Price is more than fair. Justin was meticulous and precise. Found my barber shop. Just go.
Update: past two times I got the lady to cut my hair (not by choice). Both times the haircut were messed up. I asked for a haircut to be short. She zeroed the sides and back. Top is crooked and lopsided. Not cool. Guys cutting hair is spot on. The lady needs to be re-​trained or let go. Not going to play roulette with the barbers. Will need to find another barbershop now.

Decided to give this place a shot since it had decent reviews. There were 3 barbers there 2 males and 1 female. The males were busy so I decided to give «Jenny» a shot since I figured hey they’re all qualified to be here, right?! Wrong! For one she insisted she knew what I wanted, which was a trim so I figured hey she’s a barber she knows what to do. Not only did it feel like she was stabbing the clippers into my skull she barely knew what she was doing. At the end of first cut I looked in the mirror and I see them. Massive gauges in the back of my head. For some reason I let her try to fix it, no luck and than she tells me it’s my hair that does that. No kidding it does, you just cut it.
I also really appreciate the other two barbers ignoring this little conflict.
I’ll never come back but to future customers. Stay away from «Jenny»!

Justin did a great job on my son’s hair! Found this place via Unilocal,and now I know where to bring my boys when we are in town. Justin was very nice, personable… He took his time, and offered some suggestions to make my son’s hair look its best. Definitely not the typical buzz-​cut-​barber. The place is clean, spacious, with a retro vibe… We will be back!

You get what you pay for!
To make a long story short, barber messed up my hair, went back to have it fixed, and he couldn’t do anything but offer his apologies.
My 7 year old nephew could have done better!

I went in around a week ago hopeful and eager because of the great reviews and affordable price! Sadly I’m actually pretty disappointed with the cut. Brian was my barber and I asked for a taper on the sides and just a bit off the top… pretty basic, right? I was in and out in less than 20 minutes. Unfortunately that quick trip was moreso due to laziness than efficiency. he went too high on the sides and back. He cut right through my pretty obvious cow lick at the crown of my head (because he went much too high with the clippers instead of putting in the effort to blend it) and also went too high with the clippers on the sides of my head, blatantly cutting off about ¼inch of the longer hairs that are at the top corners of my head (sorry i don’t know the proper terminology for that part). He also did some pretty strange stuff with my sideburns. He cut into my hairline in that area to narrow them out with the clippers. Now it’s growing back awkward and much shorter than the rest of my hair, not really sure what he was thinking there. Anyway I’m just going to post pictures to give you a better and bite the bullet with a Danckuts $ 35 cut, at least that’s a sure bet :/

Solid barber shop with a young staff that knows what they are doing and takes their time with each cut. I came in right when they were closing on a Sunday and they ended up taking me in.
They don’t let you book appointments which is fine with me, personally I have not been there on a day where there was a wait of more than thirty minutes. They are a good shop though and I have no doubt that their clientele will increase, I just hope they bring in other solid barbers when they do.
One great thing about this place is they have an air compressor to blow off all those small hairs after you get yourself a fresh cut.

My darling son just got an undercut by Anthony. Oh so cute. We usually go to another barber, but based on these reviews decided to pop in.
Nice, clean and reasonably priced. What more can you ask for. All the positive reviews are well warranted. Can’t wait to come back and see what other magic Anthony can do for us

I’ve been coming to Justin’s Barber shop for a while now to make sure I could grasp a clear verdict and I can honestly say that is barber shop is one of the best I’ve ever been to. It has that old school, classic vibe in the store and the owner and every barber is pleasant and accommodating. Though the price hike threw me off during my most recent visit (it went from $ 12 to $ 15 for adult males and $ 9 to $ 12 for seniors), I can’t complain too much because I know I that I will be guaranteed to get a consistent and quality haircut. Definitely recommend.

Fantastic barber with great prices and great skills! Justin gives advices as he cuts your hair so it can turn out exactly how you want. Everyone seems to do a great job here so just give everyone a shot. Definitely my new place! Walk ins are more than welcome. I’ll definitely be back!
Men & Boys: 12
Seniors: 9
#0 fade or taper +3
Bread trim: +5
Razed Detail: +5

Justin and his crew are the bomb! Just got my cut w/​Brian and since leaving their shop I’ve had nothing but compliments!
It’s a low key barber shop with a great vibe. All are grounded, down to earth peeps.
They are all artisans of the craft. God willing I will frequent Justin’s for many years to come.
May the good LORD bless Justin’s with a multitude of patrons!

No appointments that’s how a barber shop should be first come first serve. Very humble staff. We have always gone to Faded Barber but since my sons barber left we had to find another barbershop near us so we decided to give Justin’s Barber Shop a try and Ashley was sweet to my son he loved her so we are defiantly staying here.

After searching many months after replacing many of my barbers/​stylist, I have found my new home… for my HAIR! I feel like a man-​diva by hiring and letting go whomever touches my hair. I found the right place. My hair has been in chaos and trying to find the master that can end its misery to find the light. OK, I am being a little over dramatic, but my hair can breathe. We take you to one of the coolest barber shop in the block at Justin’s Barber Shop in Tustin.
I’ve been searching for the past couple of months of the place I can have my hair in the matter of experts. With the help of Unilocal and a recommendation of Jenny L., there was a place that opened close to home. Located on the southeast corner of Newport Ave/​San Juan St. in a two-​floor building sharing with Tustin Diamond Exchange, you will find Justin’s Barber Shop. There is no street parking because of Newport Ave being a busy street, but there is plenty of parking in the back. Hours of Operation are Tuesday through Sunday from 11am to 7pm. They are CLOSED on Mondays.
At first glance, it looks empty. For a moment, I thought Justin’s Barber Shop was closed. I am used to walking into a barber with the door open. I saw the sign that said, «We’re Open». I turned the door handle and I saw a pretty sleek shop. There was one other customer in the chair and I was the second customer for the evening. This is a modern-​day barber shop. You have six chairs, but run by a team of two. There are two flat screens. One for the waiting area and while you get your cut. A haircut is $ 12 for Men & Boys. It is $ 9 for Seniors. At this moment, there are no services for the ladies, but that could change later.
I was greeted by Bryan. Bryan comes all the way from Philly. A long way from home, but SoCal welcomes him since I am happy he is here. We exchanged small stories during my session, but that tells you what a warm environment it is. Even the owner, Justin, gave his story about his business and his customers. Now, that is a place you want to keep coming to and place to chat. Bryan did a wonderful job doing my Undercut Style. Justin’s Barber Shop takes pride in local business by using water-​based Pomades, Suavecito and Layrite.
This barber shop is authentic to Orange County, but more specifically, to Tustin. If you looking for the place that can do your hair right, give Justin’s Barber Shop a try. This shop may have opened a few months ago, but I see some brighter days ahead for Justin and Bryan.

This place is new and tucked away in a little lot next to a Tae Kwon Do studio but it was worth the hunt.
I was alerted to this place by a mom’s group where the mom who is also a stylist said that she took her hubby and had a great cut. It sounded amazing and the price was right $ 12 ( Unilocal Check In for 50% off 1^st visit). I liked the look and made hubby come to try it out.
Hubby wasn’t sold since he goes nearby to Floyd’s 99 and liked his vibrating massages and warm towels. I’m ok with amenities but after 2 cuts where they didn’t cut his hair in the back correctly and left it crooked both times, I was done. At $ 25 a pop (double of this price) I was really to take a chance on Justin, because I wasn’t going to have him pay Floyd’s 99 $ 25 for another crooked cut.
We met with Justin, who was really friendly and low key. He immediately sat hubby down and asked what style he was looking for. After talking to him, he settled on 2 different razors and I liked that he was conservative with a first timer, saying that he can go shorter if we wanted to later. There was no rush and he started cutting.
Justin was very precision like in his cutting and while hubby made small talk with him, my son and I explored the shop. I liked how airy and roomy the shop was and the chairs were so cute. They have 3 large screen TVs which had various sports on, but wasn’t obnoxiously loud. A long comfy couch and a display case with gels and pomades and prices prominently displayed took up the rest of the space. The artwork was of haircuts and gave me a good visual of the latest hipster style.
Justin cut the sides and then checked in with the hubby and me on the top and once he was done, he meticulously went back to clean and make sure it was straight. The cut took about 15 – 20 mins at most and was only $ 6 with the Unilocal Check In. We gave him $ 12 and I asked him about kids haircuts and he was honest saying that he doesn’t like metal razors so close and would probably do a 2 for our toddler. I liked that a lot since he seems to care about the well being of their sensitive skin.
He also let us test the 3 gels/​pomade he had to sell and we bought the Suavacito for $ 12 since they were local in Santa Ana.
All in all, great service, low key, and awesome pricing. Hubby ate crow and said that he was glad I made him try out this new barber since it’ll be his new barber shop.

Where do I start?
I like to think of myself as a barber connoisseur. There probably isn’t a barber shop in orange county I haven’t been too. You name it I’ve tried it, anyone from student barbers at UCI to professional celebrity barbers. You can trust me.
Justin’s Barber Shop is one of the best if not the best in orange county. I got to know Justin very well just by sitting in his chair a couple times. His humble beginnings and personable character is portrayed in his simple NEW barber shop.
Justin’s professionalism and attention to detail produce exquisite hair cuts every time. I haven’t left his place unsatisfied. He is very open to directions and executes them flawlessly.
Location. PRIME. Less than five minutes from the 5 freeway.
Price. PRIME. He is not a sell out and he doesn’t charge ridiculous prices for haircuts.
All in all if you are looking for a new barber, who is a master of his trade go check this barber shop out. Or don’t so I don’t have to wait in line to get my hair cut! It’s a brand new shop and I know for a fact its going to be poppin’ soon.
