Neu Cut

My usual basic: haircut ($ 15) and wash ($ 1 more).
I’ve been going to Lanna since I was 8−9yo, I’m 28 now. There was a period where I explored barbers and cheaper options when I was 14−19yo (high school-​early college) because I just had a fade. I was broke and didn’t want to bother her with my HS fad haircut. I went back to a more groomed and professional look now that I have a good job and can afford a great haircut regularly (every 3 weeks). I go to her prior to special events, galas, interviews, and presentations. NO ONE made me feel as satisfied after a haircut as Lanna. Call it a bias if you want, but going to different haircut/​barber places made it more apparent at how skilled, how great, and how rare of a talent Lanna is in comparison. There was one time I came in for an appointment and my mom and dad were there, then later my sister came. That was a total coincidence. She knows my school history, work history, relationship history. She listens. I’ve been there since the beginning and I’ll continue to go to her establishment as long as she’s in the business.

This had become my regular place to get a haircut… until now. I hadn’t come here in a couple months, but apparently they have posted a new policy that you can’t use your credit card unless the transaction is $ 20 or more??? Are you kidding me? I don’t carry cash on me for safety reasons and this is an age where more and more people are carrying less cash for the convenience of using credit. The lady said «It’s so we can keep our prices low». But what about simple convenience? Businesses accept credit cards to open up more payment options to entice customers and are willing to take the 2% hit to do so. You will lose more business and money ticking off customers than you will save in the .18 cents per transaction cost. I’m always willing to pay for a quality service. That’s great you want to be the «lowest price in town», but I’ll pay a dollar or two more if it means I can swipe my card. As a matter of principle I won’t be going back.

4.5 stars
Cut:
4 stars — Moon cut my hair. I just had a clean-​up, not a full cut. She did a decent job, though the line in the back was nicked a couple times. She blamed my wavy hair, but others have not had that problem.
Also her razor had one overly-​sharp prong and it jabbed me a couple times, but I didn’t say anything, so she probably didn’t even know. I can’t blame her for that.
Did not clean loose hair very well at the end
Still overall, very decent.
Price:
5 stars — $ 9 cash only ($ 20 minimum charge for Visa /​MC) plus tip. Can’t beat that!
Wait:
5 stars — There was none when I got there
Cleanliness:
5 stars — Very clean
Friendliness /​Conversation:
5 stars — Moon was friendly and her conversation was nice enough

Needed a hair cut and thought I would give this place a try since I was in the area. Luckily, I had the pleasure of having Jackie (owner) cut my hair. She was great to chat with and she knows her profession well! She’s been doing it for over two decades, and I was pleased with the service and final product. And for the price ($ 9)…icing on the cake!
Thanks Jackie!

Jackie (the owner) does an awesome job with hair. My hubby, our 2 boys and me have been going here for almost 5 years. For nails, Helen is the absolute best.

Im loyal to the owner, Jackie. She’s been cutting, coloring and styling my hair for more than 14 years and since then I have not replaced my hair stylist. She knows what she’s doing, she keeps up with the latest trend, and most definitely helpful. She opened her own salon because of the repeat customers request. I lived all over the bay and yet I continue to follow her. All of her staff are trained by her so they are also trust worthy. Try it, you might like it.

You should go ask for Jackie. She is the best and she knows what she is doing and will do her best within no time. They have many other services as well. Very nice people and very nice service.

I get my hair cut here all the time. It was either done by Jackie (owner) or Helen, which both are consistently good. Now I don’t remember what this other lady looked like but she did an okay job. I guess I should say it was not as good as expected but then, it was close to okay. I also got my hair cut by this Viet dude that was pretty good too. Jackie was the more talkative one, but in a friendly way. In comparison, she is more detailed and accurate in cutting men’s hair than the rest of her team. Helen is the quicker, get in & out type barber. I like both, so if you want to get it done quick, go with Helen. Otherwise, you can’t go wrong with Jackie.

Seemed alright for the price ($ 7.99) but I’m a guy with a simple cut that isn’t too picky. I told her what i wanted and it was cut acceptably, she didn’t ask too many questions as she went along but again I’m pretty open to my styling as long as its short and presentable.
Its kind of in a ratty strip mall behind a remodeled McDonalds. There was a sign saying they accepted Visa/​MC with a $ 20 min. charge.

I took my cousin out for his first salon haircut here since his mom wasn’t able to do his hair. Since I always passed this placed on the way to McDonald or Rite Aids, I thought I would take him there.
When I entered the shop, my first impression was shabby, clean Vietnamese hair salon. We got assisted right away.
The lady who cut his hair was Thao/​Thuy/​Thanh I don’t know. I remember that it just her name started with a T. I showed her a picture of some haircut, and she cut it the way it was. She would stop a few times to check I’m okay with her work so far. In the end I made her change the haircut completely than from the picture. She did get annoyed and showed a bit of attitude by complaining in Vietnamese… whatever.
While I was waiting, one of the employees was talking on her phone on speakerphone. She was talking to her dog and making dog noises? It was strange but down right hilarious. Being Vietnamese myself, this is pretty normal for where I come from. hahaha.
The haircut turned out the way I wanted. She spent twenty minutes on a man haircut (which I am assuming is a long time). Surprisingly she didn’t charge me extra. Haircut was $ 8 + $ 2 tip.
I would come again. The prices are cheap, staff are nice, and the haircuts are pretty decent.

Got a haircut from here back in late May, so this is looong overdue: x
I really didn’t get the name of the person cutting my hair, but she was attentive to my hair needs and my haircut came out great! It was really cheap too, considering she chopped off at least 6 inches of hair. I loved the way my bangs came out too! I had stupidly decided to give myself blunt bangs even though I knew they don’t work with my face shape. She was able to fix them and they grew out great!
I also got my eyebrows waxed here, which was pretty standard. I love the prices here! It’s such a steal!

It’s been great getting a haircut at Neu Cut, specifically under Jackie.
She’s been great on getting the right cut and she’ll remember what you wanted if you’re a regular. Along with that, it’s nice to make conversation with her since it’s either a quiet awkward cut or throw a random subject and she’ll reciprocate.
Unfortunately I’m not local anymore so I’ll definitely miss the great service.
Heads up, as I remember Jackie is off on Thursdays, so keep that in mind if you want to get a cut from her. Calling in advance is also good since people line up for her instead of her associates. The price is ridiculously cheap and I’d definitely give a generous gratuity for the services.

Man this place is cheap. $ 8?! Perfect for guys that don’t need anything fancy but a buzzcut. Friendly vietnamese folks. Quick and clean service, what more do you need?

I love this place! First time here, and I was pleasantly surprised. I think Jackie cut my hair, but I don’t remember her name. Still, she was extremely nice to me and paid attention to all of my requests.
I asked for minimal layers, slight a-​line finish while keeping my length, short bangs that framed my face, and no razor on my bangs. I’m not usually picky when it comes to details, but I do really dislike it when people cut my bangs with a razor. All of the past places I’ve been to have told me that razors are nothing to worry about, but I know my hair – my hair is thin and it grows weird (especially my bangs) if you razor them. My hairdresser was extremely attentive and made sure to answer my request.
My hairdresser gave me a wonderful haircut, and with this amazing price, I am definitely coming again!

Looks like there has been a change in ownership here. They have lowered prices to $ 5.99 for a haircut. Was kind of sad to see the old owners go, but so far they still give good cuts and the new people are pretty friendly. Can’t beat the cost!

We purchased two services from here, a haircut and a pedicure.
Here’s the breakdown:
4.5 stars for the haircut! Can’t beat the $ 5.99 haircut. It’s a good haircut esp. if you’re male. At first I was skeptical but when I watched her cut my hubby’s hair, I observed that she was detailed. She would check with him as she continued to cut his hair which he loved b/​c he’s «protective» of his hair. The end result was the same as the $ 13 haircut we would get down the street from our house.
2.5 stars for the pedicure. Cleaning and removal of cuticles and dead skin was excellent. However, everything else was meh. I marked off for their limited inventory. I prefer OPI and I didn’t see much of it and their color selection was very small. I also marked off for their massage chairs. They weren’t very comfortable and the chair wasn’t responding to what I was pressing on the remote. Lastly, I marked off for technique. The final result was uneven. After drying, there was a small clump on one toe and a visible line breaking the smooth finish. I found it after I left. However, I’m sure they would’ve corrected it if I found it while I was still there since they were very nice and helpful.
Pros: Great prices and great customer service
Cons: Place is a little shabby.
We’ll be returning for a haircut for sure.

Very friendly and welcoming barbers here. Helen is good and so is the owner, Jackie. Great for men’s haircut. This is the perfect place to get a man’s haircut in Milpitas.
Yes, they do nails too.
Accepts MC & Visa only.

New owner Jackie. She cuts hair very well! I live in Hilo, Hawaii and when Im in the bay area, shes the only one that I like for a cut and color. She used to be in a shop in Newark, but now is at Neu Cut in Milpitas.
She’s great! Also, after getting a cut here, you can head to Max’s of Manila for some good Filipino food.
The shop has always been behind the McD and next to the ⁷⁄₁₁. Just a new owner. Haircut prices are inexpensive.
