The lady didn't seem to be paying attention, parting my hair in the way I didn't want it and missing an entire section of my hair. She even jabbed my scalp with an electric shaver and left a mark. I stood up after she styled my hair, removed the collar, and said she was done. Then she suddenly told me to sit back down because she forgot something. She had missed the whole back of my neck and went back in to cut it with scissors and a shaver. She left a ton of prickly pieces of hair debris in my jacket from this, and it's sooo uncomfortable when those pieces stab your skin! The next day, the right side of my head felt heavier than the left. I noticed chunks of hair that were blunt and cut unevenly. I think the positive reviews on this salon are mostly for the man and not the woman hairdresser. The men coming into the salon were practically glowing by the time they walked out. I felt like this woman is here because she needs something to do. I tipped out of pity.

He told me it was "normal" and even claimed that if I didn't feel the heat, there would be something wrong with his tools. He told me not to worry, but because he didn't listen, I ended up with a burnt scalp and completely fried, damaged hair.

Been going to Biyoshi for over 12 years now! Warren the owner always knows just how to cut my hair and ALWAYS does it with a smile. The staff here never changes, always in a good mood and very friendly. You always know a great place when they have been there for a while and the staff rarely turns over. Since I have been going here for such a long time, I have become friends with the other stylist and feel right at home there. Before coming here it was a pain in the but trying to find a stylist that knew how to cut my hair the way I wanted it cut and also stayed at the same place for any length of time. Also, beware if you are into fishing becaue it is one of Warren's passions in life and you may just end up going out on the water with him. Can't see myself going anywhere else to get my hair cut. read more

Ive been coming to Biyoshi for about two years now and have always had a great experience. The location is convenient and parking is easy. The shop is one long rectangle but never feels cramped at all, everyone has enough space and I've never to felt too "friendly" with patrons sitting next to me. Steve is a wonderful calming presence and gives the best washes. Ive had just about every stylist there and have never had any complaints. I'm sort of to the point with my hair- give me the cut just like the photo I usually will bring- and no frills. Communication is so key for hairstylists and they've surely got that down. read more

If you are looking for a salon with very personalized service and high-end cuts, this is the place. From my first visit, they took the time to discuss what you are looking for with your hair, and in the process meet their wonderful staff and stylists. Since then, they have done my wedding and now my children are enjoying their service. I always feel very pampered there, making sure I'm comfortable and serving refreshments. People, even strangers, ask me where I get my hair done. I can't imagine going anywhere else. Thank you Biyoshi's! read more

Biyoshi is a world class scissor-cut barber. Truly before having found him a bit over ten years ago, I haven't had anybody cut my hair since. He is a true master! When you drive by his shop, you'll see his symbol out on the sidewalk (a large pair of yellow barber shears) --you have arrived at a great place. Always very friendly and cheerful. Wonderful place. Good conversation, coffee or tea, ...and a perfect haircut. I highly recommend booking your next cut with Biyoshi. read more
