Always have a great experience at Anomaly. Jayden and Jason are both super friendly, always get me right, and know what they're doing. I usually go between the two depending on who's available, and they've both been great every time. They also give solid advice and always know what will work best. They're usually packed, so if you see an opening, book them right away! read more

First time here and this studio won me over. Calm, welcoming vibe the second you walk in, clean and relaxed without feeling stiff. It's the kind of place where you actually look forward to sitting in the chair. Got a men's cut and the skill matched the setting. Clean lines, great blending, and real attention to detail. They took the time to listen before getting started. Highly recommend. read more

Thought I would try this place out and booked a scissor cut. Lots of great cuts on instagram. Nice place and nice staff. Unfortunately the scissor cut I received from Sean was not what I asked for all around. I've been growing my hair out for 9+ months and it was all around down to my ear. The barber was late for the appointment and texted me 20 minutes prior the day of to arrive 15 minutes later. I was already at the shop waiting and said it was ok that he was running behind. I said I wanted to keep my length and showed two photos of haircuts with longer hair to the earlobes and said in the long run I'm looking to get a perm but waiting till I can actually perm it since it's been colored. Wanted the back which was quite long cut a bit shorter. I thought the barber understood with the consult and showing two reference photos with long hair, unfortunately I got layers in my hair that isn't great, and about 3 inches were cut so I lost my length and my hair is now up towards the top of my ear. I was really upset and disappointed when he handed me the mirror at the end to look at the finished cut and seeing that he cut my length away!!!!! I didn't ask for my length to be gone, he apologized and said it would grow back to be better with the cut. I DIDN'T COME TO GET A SCISSOR CUT TO WAIT FOR MY HAIR TO GROW BACK TO LOOK NICER!!!!!! Now I have to wait for my hair to grow and gain length again, so I can style it how I like. Total disaster because I did not want my hair short. I wish I would have been facing the mirror when I was getting my scissor cut so I could have reiterated not to cut my length away, instead of facing away from a mirror for the entire cut. a suggestion is to allow the client to see what is happening during the cut, and cut less and go more if too long still so it can be a win for the client and stylist. You can always take a little more but you can't give back what you cut. He was also focused on a soccer game while cutting my hair, which I thought was ok until I saw my result! Paid 100 dollars including tip for a haircut I did not ask for! Would not be a returning customer unfortunately. read more

I've been getting my haircut by Kevin for the last 5 years. The kindest professional-- could never think of leaving him. When he told me he was going to open Anomaly, I told him I'd go anywhere he went. The facility is clean, nice, and has a covered parking garage attached to the building. Super easy to park and walk 30 seconds to. Anomaly is modern in the sense of the interior as well as the training of the barbers. They're constantly learning new hair styles and can cut any type of hair-- including Asian hair which can be difficult to work with. read more

Had a good time trying out this barber shop for the first time! My partner recommended this spot since she found it on tik tok. There's lots of parking nearby either around the neighborhood or in the garage. It's a small space that holds 4 barber chairs in the front and one chair in the back that's in another room. It's a classy place with a modern aesthetic and feels. You book with a specific stylist you want and reserve your spot online. I booked an appointment with Jay. He was he great to work with and we had a great consultation on my hair and what how I wanted to look. Classy, and great experience. read more

I first discovered Anomaly by Paradox through K-Luk's work on Instagram, and I can confidently say that the talent you see online is absolutely the real deal. K is exceptional at what he does, but what makes him even more remarkable is how humble, thoughtful, and genuinely kind he is. I've never met anyone so meticulous and intentional about every single cut they make. K takes the time to really listen, understand what you're looking for, and figure out what will work best for you. His attention to detail is unlike anything I've experienced, and the results speak for themselves. He's truly an artist who takes tremendous pride in his craft. While I haven't personally had my hair cut by the other barbers, it's clear that the same level of care and attention extends throughout the shop. Everyone seems incredibly skilled, and there's such a positive energy in the space. The barbers have a wonderful rapport with their clients, and every person I've encountered has been warm, friendly, and genuinely welcoming. It's refreshing to find a place filled with people who are not only talented but also just really good human beings. The shop itself is beautiful, the atmosphere is relaxed and inviting, and parking is incredibly easy, which is always a bonus. I drive an hour each way every month to get my hair cut here, and I wouldn't hesitate to do it again. That alone should tell you how highly I think of K and the entire team. read more

We've known of Paradox since high school, but finally decided to try it out when my boyfriend was in limbo with his hair. Jayden did an amazing job listening and helping him get his ideal cut. Blending is great and really tapped into his low effort hairstyle. Overall vibe is great and easygoing. We'll definitely be back!! read more

Had a great experience at this new barbershop. The shop has a clean, modern look and feels welcoming when you walk in. K-Luk does a great job creating an inviting atmosphere. While I was sitting through the heating phase, he even offered me a cold beverage, which was a really thoughtful touch and definitely noticed. What stood out the most was how well he listened to what I was looking for. He paid attention to the details and made sure he understood the style I wanted. That kind of communication and care really goes a long way. read more

Anomaly by Paradox - Wavy perm + cut by k-luk - Barbers Near Me - San Jose, California

Wanted to try a high end barber to see what's up but ended up so disappointed. Don't get me wrong, the barbers seem chill and boys that I can be friends with, but don't let that manipulate you into trying to see past of the actual service given, which is cutting hair. I have a range of barbers I choose to work with and I won't be adding this to my list. I'll stick to Nhien at Wondercuts, for $25 who can actually do a fade. Family man too. Not whatever this place is trying to be. I asked for a bald fade, and he just couldn't get it right. I know a barber can cut hair when they're not afraid to shave my sideburns and work up, and he didn't. It's a bald fade, not a 1-2. I was polite and just said it was okay, until I went out with my friends and they were like who cut my hair. They showed me how even more messed the back was. Like it was two tones, no gradient. A few of the barbers seem inexperienced, nothing wrong with that, but not deserving to be charging $70 for a haircut which they call "a consultative service" like maybe charge less so you can learn to perfect your craft first? On top of that, I hear the barbers talking about practicing and stuff like that at the shop, really confirming the inexperience. Everyone starts somewhere, and I appreciate the hustle but not at $70 a cut. **They seem like they're buying reviews, after I posted there is a huge influx and the owner messaged me. I refuse to be bought. read more

Been going to my boy Jayden for a minute and he hasn't ever let me down. Continuing to working on his craft and when I heard he was going to be at Anomaly as they were about to open up, I had to book an appointment and come through. Love the clean look and decor of the shop and it sets a professional yet friendly vibe. Clean as hell and they play good music. Hospitality, booking, and payments are a smooth process. If you looking for good scissor work and good consultations, hit up Jayden. He's earned my trust and ima continue to support my guy. read more

Troy was really good communicating with me on the style and how to take care of it, which was my biggest worry going in but he killed it. I usually don't spend money like this but it was totally worth it. read more

I've been going to K-Luk for my haircuts for many years and now he has opened his own shop. He's consistent and pays attention to details.

Plus his other team members/barbers are amazing as well! All the barbers and professional and cares about each haircut they give. read more
