Both of my sons absolutely love Ken! He's the only hairstylist they truly trust with their hair. They always leave his chair feeling confident and loving their new look. Ken just knows exactly what works for them every single time. The salon is always spotless, clean, and well-maintained. Everything feels fresh, organized, and hygienic, which makes the whole experience even more comfortable and enjoyable. read more

I really like my haircuts from Nami! I've been getting my haircuts from Nami for the past 8 months or so after I found this place from Yelp and I highly recommend her. I always find it really hard to explain exactly how I want my hair to look because even when I find examples to show the hairstylist, I either don't want it exactly like the photo, or (more often than not) the person in the photo has hair/headshape different from mine so I'm never going to look just like that. I've come to realize that every hairstylist is going to have their own "style" if you will, and the haircuts they do will reflect that style. I really appreciate Nami's style and the way my haircuts turn out even for little things that are hard to explain such as the back. If I had to describe it in regards to my own requests (I do a side part), I would say she's great at flowy, modern cuts that look clean but still have a natural feel to them. She's also great at listening to requests. I often like mixing up my haircut a tiny bit and she'll offer suggestions and we'll have a discussion on various possibilities. Lastly, besides doing great haircuts she's also just fun to talk to, I always enjoy talking to her so that's a bonus. Reservations are done via their website where you'll find available times and pricing. Parking is easy, there's a huge parking lot in back that's shared with a row of retail buildings, just look for the two story building with the Sansai Japanese Grill. read more

I just moved to the area a few weeks ago, and in need of a new barber/stylist. For me in the past it's always been stressful to find a good barber shop where the atmosphere is not heavy and toxic. I had the pleasure of getting my cut from Kendraya, who did an amazing job, and was very welcoming, patient, and carried so much peace. I found my new shop. Thank you! Nick read more

Very easy booking process! Nami did an amazing job . No wait right on time , got there and the service started on time and ended on time. Clean establishment, she cleaned all her tools before starting . Showed her a photo of what we wanted , which was the flow cut and she nailed it ! She gave us pointers on what products to use etc., we will definitely be going back . Loved the building , was able to grab some coffee while we were waiting and check out the Lego collectors store. It's was very tranquil . There is plenty of parking outside , first 90 minutes are free. read more

Kendraya was my stylist and she is absolutely amazing! She gave me one of the best haircuts I've ever had. She took her time, paid attention to the details, and made sure everything was exactly the way I wanted it. I couldn't be happier with the results. I will definitely be coming back, and I personally recommend Kendraya to anyone looking for a talented stylist who really knows what she's doing. If you get a chance to book with her, do it. You won't be disappointed! She is a 5+ star stylist!! read more

Kendraya did amazing with my hair! She completely understood what I wanted and I'm very happy with it!

Ryan was great. Very attentive, took my preferences into account and provided great recommendations. One of the cleanest fades I've received so far and the haircut also came with a shampoo and styling. Highly recommend and I'll definitely be a returning customer read more

Always a great and precise haircut from Jacob. Super friendly and skilled. Easy to book appointments with the app.

Haircut was clean, service was great, and the price is reasonable. Definitely will come back.

Pissed off. Ended up with bowl cut by Ryan last week. We discussed a mid fade thru a picture he pulled up and he started my cut iff that way but kept blending it high n higher, and he gave me a high bald 0 fade. He only has 3 years of experience, i shouldve immediately left his chair but with all these good reviews i trusted him. Maybe he's good at cutting longer hair but I should have never told him to do what he thinks is best, either. Never again. Waste if $50+ read more

I got my haircut from Ryan last month and he did a great job. I will be going back today for my second cut!

Not just for the boys! I Made a last minute appointment here with Ryan today and he did not disappoint. I'm growing out my short pixie and wanted a tapered fade with lots of texture on top. I had an inspo photo and Ryan took his time and delivered exactly what I asked for! So glad I found this salon. read more

William cut my girlfriend's and my hair on consecutive appointments. I, we havent found anyone as competent as William is in cutting our hair. from cutting my hair first to giving my girlfriend a scissors cut next from the same person is amazing. William is very friendly and personable having non stop conversation while having a hair cut. I, we will only go to William at B Side U for our hair care needs. outstanding service. read more

I got a haircut with Nami. She is very nice and personable. Gave me a consult before making any cuts. She made some suggestions which I went with because she is the professional. She used clippers first then washed hair then finished with scissors. She was very careful and attentive during the cut. I was happy with the outcome. Will see her again in a month or two. She knows what I mean. The place is pretty quiet so nice and calming. read more

William is awesome! I came in for the first time with very little notice just based on good reviews (I'm really particular) and he did an excellent job. I've already come back since my last cut. read more

Went in again this time got a cut from Ryan. He did an excellent job! Seems like everyone at this shop does a phenomenal job. They take their time to make sure every cut is done to a high level of excellence. Highly recommended this location for a great haircut. read more

It was my 1st time and it did not disappoint. It's very hard to look for a new barber let alone trust one but Carl did a heck of a job with my hair. Told him what I want and he executed it to the T! The shop is very clean and everyone is nice. Looking forward to my next appointment with him. I highly recommend tbis place. read more

Found my new spot! This location was able to squeeze me in as a walk in and I did not even have to wait. Nice clean and friendly little spot right in the middle of a nice walking area. William was very detailed and attentive to the cut, making sure I was comfortable. Ambiance was fantastic, almost fell asleep in the chair! lol will definitely coming back, definitely try B Side U for your next cut and ask for William! Be seeing you! read more

Amazing! This was the first time in "29" years of living where the person cutting my hair actually listened to me. I told Ryan I wanted to cover my widows peak and he did an amazing job! He also fixed this cow lick I have that absolutely zero stylist could ever figure out. I finally found a place I'll go back to from now on. Also, it was only $45! Everywhere else charges 100+ and they make me look like a 12-year-old. I will B Back 2 B Side U read more

I visit Fiona regularly. Just have to repeat that her manner and confidence with the scissors is superb. She's quiet, gentle and always does a great job on my thick locks. I leave the salon with wide smile. Sometimes I find the music rather loud....particularly if there's only one other person there. Fiona turned it down for me yesterday so I could communicate with her, just a bit. Honestly? We both like to be quiet and concentrate on the maestro: her! 100% recommended. I dread moving out of town and losing her one of these days. read more

I've been to both locations and both are great! I received my haircut from Ryan. The cut was exceptional and he was friendly. Strongly recommend coming here if looking around the area for a cut. Clean, professional, and great location and service! Thanks again, Ryan. read more

Well done and detailed, thorough and accurate. Nice, quiet space with good people. Prompt and on time.

Great service. Nice, friendly clean and professional! Will definitely be getting my hair done here regularly!

Wow! The precision and attention to detail on these cuts is amazing. My son's hair looks great and the fades I saw on other guys were equally impressive. Locations is inside the Collonade (indoor shop area) on Lake Ave. parking lot in the rear. Two seats if you need a place to wait...or why not walk around? read more

I was looking around my area to find a new barber and I think found a favorite. Nami was able to cut my hair so well with my vague instructions. Simple, but low maintenance. I feel like simple haircuts are the hardest to do well but she knocked it out of park. Will come back again and definitely recommend. read more

Never paid over $20 for my haircut but boy can I say that the extra cost I paid was well worth the level of service and care that JJ took with my haircut. Left the store feeling pampered and like a new man. My girlfriend agrees. Def coming back. read more

Always an amazing cut by Nami Really like the product they use in my hair too! Can't wait for my next cut read more

This is my second time at B Side U and I had the pleasure of having Nami assist me both times :) She is an amazing/talented stylist! Super down to earth and provides a great customer experience~ I also have receding/thinning hair and she always does an amazing job even though I give her nothing to work with lol I get many compliments about my hairstyle and I highly recommend her! read more

Got a same-day appointment with Maggie because my usual guy is away for the next couple months. Was a little tentative, but was actually pretty easy. Showed Maggie kind of what I was looking for and showed an example from her portfolio on the Bside site and we were off. I actually think she did a better job than my regular guy! read more

I was in the area looking to cut my one year olds hair and the place I was recommended was appointment only so I did a quick search on yelp and came across b side u. Based off the pictures online this seemed like a good place for a styled cut, I came in as a walk in on a Monday afternoon and Ryan helped me out no hesitations. Showed him a picture of what I wanted for my son which was an all scissor cut and it came out better than what I had shown. This was my son's second haircut ever and he didn't cry or make a fuss, extremely calm zen and welcoming environment and all that reflected in my child's behavior. Seemed a bit expensive at first for a kids cut but I'll definitely come back whenever my son needs another trim thanks Ryan read more

My boyfriend had a go to barber already but I was in the mood for him to try a new place. I came across B Side U on Yelp due to the great reviews and selected Fiona to be the one to cut the boyfriend's hair. Fiona seems quiet and sweet and she did a good job on his haircut. As I was there as an observer, I noticed another hair stylist Jay, was very pleasant and seems to have a great personality. If the boyfriend doesn't mind going back to this location next time, I may go ahead and book with Jay. There was one more gentleman, and I didn't catch his name. Phone call after phone call while he had a client. Never excused himself once or apologized for walking away. I cringed for the client as he sat at his seat just waiting for him to come back. After his client left, that stylist went ahead and plopped down on the same seat and was glued to his phone. This is someone who I may not really want to deal with. read more

Visited B Side U last week and had my hair done by Fiona. She was great and did exactly what I wanted. I'd definitely go back!

the service is great, they always give good haircuts and they give free head massages

Hi Jacob He is the best. He did an amazing job with my haircut. Go get a haircut with Jacob read more

Great quality haircut Second time here and will keep coming back Easy parking and place is always clean and great vibe read more

Fiona is the absolute best. She can make your hairstyle how you want or can recommend something. Amazing person. Thank you Fiona.

I originally wanted to get a trim and tried this place out of the blue because I needed to get cleaned up for a wedding I had coming up. This place exceeded my expectations and provided great service. Their stylists have a keen eye for detail and the service is exceptional. I'm usually the type of person to have a short haircut and whatever I wake up and roll out of bed with that day, I'm rocking. Instead, Jay helped me out immensely and was so kind in helping me style my hair. He even gave me tips on how to style my hair for the next time I try on my own. Even more so, his kindness went as far as allowing me to visit him the next day before the wedding I was attending to style my hair again. I won't lie, I kind of looked pretty great for the wedding! This place is amazing and I highly recommend checking this place out. I definitely will be coming back soon for future haircuts! Shout out to Jay! Thank you!! read more

Fiona did an amazing job on my son's haircut. He had a very specific vision and went from shoulder length hair to very short. She was kind and precise. The prices are higher than many but if you want an amazing haircut you can't go wrong. read more
