Studio One Barber Shop

REFUSED TO EVEN FINISH HIS MESS!
This guy is rude and unprofessional. I had an appointment, when I showed up the door was locked and he was in bathroom. After waiting a few minutes, he opens the door and offers me to sit. I asked him not to cut from the side and he started cutting a lot with a trimmer from my left side. When I asked him again to keep the sides a little long, he went crazy and said I’m not gonna do your hair…
That simple! He stopped in the middle…

Incredible attention to detail, makes sure you know what you want, takes the time to make everything perfect, and he’s a super nice guy.
Came in feeling hopeless and ragged with my mess of long hair; left feeling fresh, tight, and clean.
The five stars brought me here, and they were no accident. Studio One deserves all five.

Definitely a one time only visit for me.
Maybe if your a guy who doesn’t know at all really what you want, you just want a guy to put an okay looking hair cut on your head, maybe this is your guy. (If your a girl, you can roll the dice if you want to, he really doesn’t do girls hair though)
But I knew the hair cut that I wanted to get, and all this guy gave me was a big argument about how guys shouldn’t have long hair. (The long hair in question was about 6 inches long). So, not good for that,
Also, he tells me I shouldn’t give a crap what my lady likes to see me with since I’m the one wearing the hair cut not her (I can’t see how this guy could possibly have a good marriage, but who knows? I didn’t ask)
So after trying to explain to him the style and name of hair style I wanted, all I get back from this guy is attitude, like I don’t know anything, and a weird hair cut that looked funky a week after getting it. AND IT WASN’T AT ALL WHAT I ASKED FOR!
ON TOP IF THAT, because my hair was considered «long» the price was $ 45, not the $ 25 advertised.
So he doesn’t know how to give «long» hair cuts to guys, acts like a jerk, overcharges without telling you, is chronically behind schedule, and acts like he’s gods great gift to the barber industry… Thanks, no thanks, I’ll stick with my previous hair salon.

Horrible service:
I scheduled an appointment, arrived early. There was already another person waiting when I got there. That person was seated in the chair at my appointment time.
When I called we had a conversion over the phone about a haircut and a beard cleanup. When my haircut was over he informed me that he only has me down for a haircut.
It’s very clear he favors his regulars and doesn’t seem like he wants to turn a new client into a regular.
The haircut itself came out decent, got a little nick on my hairline in the forehead area.

This time around, I wanted to change my hairstyle to a more formal, classic look. Jack got me the results I wanted. He also showed me some tricks with the comb and hairdryer to achieve the style I wanted. Just like last time, I’m left impressed and satisfied with the cut.
He’s very professional and asks you how you personally like things cut, like your side burns and the length of your hair in the front. This way he assures that you get the results you want. His friendly advice and insight are very appreciated.
I dont want to go anywhere else for my montly haircut, I want my hair to look good every time, and Jack has gotten it right. Studio One Barbershop just got a new regular. Thanks Jack.

As good, if not the best, haircut I’ve had in years. Jack did a great job and is easy to get to know. Barbers can be a lot like bartenders… the really good ones make you feel at home with easy conversation. And time flies while they work their magic, making it seem so effortless. Next thing you know, your on your way feeling just a little more upbeat than when you came in.
Jack is a one man show and works by appointment only. This may show as Carla’s (my lovely wife) review. But, for the record, I’m Dave!

Jack does a great job cutting hair! He is friendly, gets to know you, and is meticulous about his work. The shop is clean, and well maintained. I love that I can make an appointment and not have to sit and wait in line like any other place. Jack is my new barber. I highly recommend him.

Good, prompt service. Excellent haircut.

You definitely get your money’s worth here. Before, I would go to cheap salons, always disappointed. I even attempted Great Clips. It wasn’t until I went to Studio One I found my Barber Shop.
Jack is a very professional barber who takes time to get to know you and your hair. I told him what style I wanted, and since my hair isn’t long enough yet, he gave me a plan to accomplish that look. Every visit, I leave with a very clean and very professional haircut and that much closer to my ideal look. Jack also gave me tips on how to make a very successful and delicious Thanksgiving Turkey.
Jack will definitely take care of your hair!!!

Jack is a wholesome legitimate business owner. I arrived as a walk-​in, desperate to get a haircut and he met my needs. Not being from the Bay Area; I had no idea what I was walking into besides finding him on Unilocal.
Jack is by far one of the best barbers I’ve ran in to in a long time. Trust me, I’ve been around being a service member and have had many skilled hands cut my hair. He took his time and asked what were my needs. He masterfully executed; furthermore, I will be returning again for the duration of my visit here in the Bay Area.
Come here for a real hair cut.
Thank you Jack!

Jack is awesome. Plain and simple. When I first moved to Hayward I found his place through a friend of mine because I noticed his haircuts were so slick. So I thought that I would give it a shot. I couldn’t have been any happier with my decision. Jack was very patient with me, even when I didn’t really know what I wanted. He would recommend cool hairstyles for me to try, and then would make sure that I was comfortable with what I got. He really took his time throughout the entire process and made sure I got exactly what I asked for. He works by appointment only so he never rushes through the haircut. I’ve gone to him for haircuts for about a year now and I’ve got to say that he’s the only barber I will ever go to when I’m in the area. He’s also extremely personable and you cam talk to him about anything.
Just make sure that you DON’T GO WHEN YOU’RE SICK!!! He’s a one man operation so he has to stay healthy and happy in order to run his business. If he’s out of commission for one day, then that is one day that no one will get a haircut. Don’t take it personally if he decides not to cut your hair because you’re sick. He has to be able to make money and buy food to eat, just like everybody else.

Wow. I made an appointment for my husband today. It was his first time there with Jack. My husband has been going with the same barber for years and didn’t really know to tell Jack what he usually gets done. However, just by looking at his current cut Jack knew want he needed. Let me tell you… hubby look so handsome!!! Once we got out hubby expressed how he really like the haircut and how he liked how Jack was so informative while cutting his hair. 5+* for Jack. He is great! Now hubby needs to remember exactly what this cut is called.

First haircut: I made an appointment 12:30PM, showed up on-​time, and had to wait 20 mins for him to finish the previous appointment.
Second haircut: I made an appointment for 12:30PM, showed up 4 minutes late, was told that I would have to reschedule my appointment for the following week because he couldn’t make his next appointment
DOUBLE STANDARD IS REAL

Jack is a true professional! He’s always very welcoming, Gives a top notch, precise cut, and is just an all-​around good man. Thank you for always welcoming the short-​haired female crowd too, Jack!

Nothing but 5 stars for my man Alex. Was my first time there today and was very pleased. He is a cool guy and gave me a great fade and cut. Will definitely be back and also recommend him to others. Oh and he does work by appointment so you have to schedule it in.

I moved to Hayward and I was in search of a good barber. Studio One Barber shop was it. Jack really knows what he’s doing. He only cuts mens hair and really pays attention to the details. He’ll talk you straight up if he thinks what you have in mind isn’t going to work. Trust him with his recommendation and you’ll look good.
Make sure you make an appointment because Jack gets really busy.

Jack’s the man! One man Team. I been to many barbers over the years and looks like u found the one!

I went in shaggy & came out looking sharper than a mosquito’s dick.
Jack is a popular guy. I got lucky with a walk-​in at the start of his day, but he’s in demand & the phone rings off the hook. Call ahead and make an appointment, he’s worth it.
I was impressed with Jack’s attention to detail. In a world of too many places that can’t get you out of the chair fast enough, a meticulous barber is a real find. Jack takes the time to make sure you get what you want, and tailors the cut to fit the shape of your head & sense of style. No cookie cutter buzz cuts here.
Jack’s skill is a throwback to an earlier age. You’re guaranteed to leave here feeling like a man. If you’ve got a job interview, or you’re asking your boss for a raise, or if you’re hunting big game or writing the great American novel, a haircut from Jack will give you that boost of self-​confidence to put you over the top and get the job done. In my case, I went straight home and sired twins. I’m gonna name one of them after Jack.

I have been coming here now for a few months.
Had been to numerous places in Hayward but none really let me leave their shop or salon as happy as I do when I leave Jack’s business.
Everyone else seems to cut hair in a rush, not listen to what you want, and/​or just simply not care.
Then, there is Jack. A very personable and professional man. I go in for very simple cuts. But, this man is skilled and since it’s only him holding it down, he makes sure you leave happy.

This is my new favorite barber. Jack works alone and now I see why. He does it all. He has both a Cosmetology license AND a Barber license. This was my first time here and Jack really took his time to make sure he knew exactly what I wanted. He was very detailed in my cut and made me feel comfortable and welcomed. He works by appointment only, but was willing to take a walk in that showed up while I was there. His shop looks clean and smells great! There was never that awkward silence. Jack made great conversation and kept me engaged. I highly recommend Studio One and Jack. The cut was $ 18…not bad at all for what I got. I’ll be back in about three to four weeks for my next cut. Happy barber hunting, folks!
