Mr Lee’s Hair Fashions

My boyfriend has been getting his hair cut here for the last year and a half. He’s cheated and gone to other salons but Mr Lee’s is definitely the best by far. He knows how to cut your hair such that it will still look good when it grows out. Make sure you make an appointment with him before dropping by.

I’ve been a customer here since I moved to Kitchener /​Waterloo 10 years ago. Not one bad hair cut since. Gotta say that’s impressive, plus very very friendly people!

I echo the other reviews for this place! Great haircuts for a decent price. He definitely took his time with my hair and did not rush at all. The results were quite good and I will definitely be returning. No credit or debit is sad, but I think he’s keeping his costs down this way. Might suggest him to use the square app next time I’m around.

I saw one bad review here and couldn’t just not to reply it back. Are you guys sure you went to Mr. Lee? Is this a joke? None of the Lee customers know about good haircut? Are you serious? I am regular customer. It has been over 2 years now. Yes, the place needs some restoration, but you can’t complain about haircut and welcomeness. Besides when Lee is doing my hair you can just see he is trying his best. How many people nowadays do you see dedicated to their job? He might can’t make you look like Justin Bieber, but maybe this is because your hair and your face shape is not Bieber’s.
I like my haircut, my wife loves it and most important I don’t have to tell Lee how to do it. He knows my style… I went different places in the past and couldn’t find any good one. Most of the hair salons didn’t give a crap about your haircut and made you feel like they just want your wallet. Besides Lee charges decent price.
To go or not to go its up to you.

Great place, got a great haircut and it was definitely quick. It’s hard to find a place that can properly cut Asian hair and now just give you a badly done buzz cut. You just have to make sure you book an appointment. Mr. Lee has is hilarious, ‘eccentric’ is a great word for him. Definitely a great experience and my new goto place go get my haircut.

Very good haircut I must say.
However, he does not take debit or credit, which is fairly unheard of in KW. I had to run out to the TD down the street to get cash.

Lee is rather experienced, and he spent a good amount of time perfecting this idea of what an male asian’s head should look like. And honestly, he did a pretty good job at creating just that. If you were to bring your boys to his yard they’ll all end up with a decent asian haircut.
However because of that the cut turned out nothing like the picture presented. I bring the same picture to many places, it just came out too short. Nice guy though. :)

I called around 3pm on a Tuesday and was able to get a 6pm appointment the same day. Once I arrived, I was straight into the chair and 15 minutes later I was out the door. Reasonable price for a wash and a cut and the cut was probably one of the best I’ve ever had. I think someone wrote on here that he is a magician and I think that’s the best way to put it. He works quick! I think he works alone, so an appointment would be the best way to go.

Best haircuts I’ve had. Takes his time. Quality is consistently good.
Make an appointment ahead of time.

Great haircuts at decent prices. The owner is very enthusiastic and hospitable. He seems to run the whole place himself so expect waits if you don’t make an appointment.

Friendly, fair price and I’m happy with my hair cut. As for complaint about having to wait… He works alone, so if you don’t make an appointment you may have to wait. Quit whining and don’t expect the world to drop everything because you have $ 25 to spend. I’ll come back and bring my son here too.

My boyfriend went here for the first time today and it was the worst hair cut he has ever had. It was not blended at all. There was an actual line around his head that you could see no problem. As soon as he walked in the door I took one look at it and said, no, we have to go upstairs and fix this. I ended up butchering it and then we had to shave it all off. We are getting ready on go on vacation and this just put a HUGE damper on the whole thing. The people who gave this place good reviews obviously have no idea what a good hair cut is. Because this was awful. My boyfriend said it seems like he had no formal training at all and did not even offer him a mirror to check out the back. If you’re planning on trying this place… DON’T. Go anywhere else. Go to the mall or something. Just don’t go to Mr. Lee.

Great place to go! Mr. Lee is an artist to say the least. 14 years of experience really shows.

Mr. Lee and the reviews here did not disappoint one bit. He was very friendly, quick, meticulous, and skillfully cuts hair. I would definitely go back again.

I have long straight hair and only get it cut a couple times a year so I’m very particular when I do, and that’s why I keep returning here. I’ve never had a bad experience at Mr. Lee’s, and consistently good haircuts. Although it may seem like most of the clientele are men, Mr. Lee is excellent with Ladies’ hair too! His friendly and outgoing nature will put you right at ease.
Also, the best pre-​cut shampoos I’ve ever had :)

Mr. Lee’s a really great guy to talk to. He’s been cutting hair in the Waterloo area for about 12 years now, and his experience will be seen on your haircut. With a down-​to-​earth barber, unique place, and great haircuts, Mr. Lee’s Hair Fashions is definitely a better alternative to barbers near UW. You can take the 200 iExpress towards the Ainslie Terminal, then stop at Grand River hospital and walk 10 minutes.

I’ve been to Mr. Lee’s several times and I was happy with the results. He’s kind of weird, but he’s always happy and enthusiastic.
As a warning for those of you who don’t like thinning shears: he uses them a LOT.

After I read a couple of positive reviews for Mr. Lee’s, I figured I would give him a try. And although his cutting methods were not was I was used to, he still did a fabulous job and was able to cut my hair in a style that suited me. I’ll be back, Mr. Lee!

Getting a haircut is very difficult and being in Waterloo doesn’t help. Luckily, I chanced by Mr Lee’s Hair Fashions. This place looks strange and the inside does not give you any much better opinions. I believe there is a white fenced window with flower pots outside. Weird right?
They are good though for Asian people, I don’t know about others. And as you probably guessed, it is a Korean hair cutting place. Also, accessible by local transit.
