I'll begin by saying that my teenager is pretty sensitive about his haircuts. He doesn't style it, but he's particular regardless; he also has some sensory sensitivities. I came across Full Circle from both Instagram and the San Mateo Daily. The barbers looked young and cool while also doing great cuts and lending expertise and advice, so we gave them a shot. They did not disappoint! My son's appointment was with Codie, one of the co-founders. He was so personable, joyful, and engaging that I immediately knew that my son would love it here as long as he liked his haircut. Codie was extremely attentive - asking my son both personal/conversational questions and questions about preferences of the cut. Needless to say, my son loved his cut almost as much as he loves his new kuya, Codie. The vibe is very barbershop - everyone's family, loud, and warm. If it's your vibe and you become a regular, I wouldn't expect to drop in and out. It's a laid-back environment - everyone who walks through the door is greeted warmly, and these guys really know what they're doing. Just from that one visit, I saw their clientele spanned the age spectrum, and everyone seemed genuinely happy. I think we found my son's new barber. The price point is pretty steep - $70 for my son's cut. He was coming in with a mop on his head, so there was a lot of work to be done. Codie spent a lot of time working on my son, too. He was me-ti-cu-lous! If my husband had hair, this would probably be his new spot, too. read more

I have been going to Drew for almost ten years now. I do not trust anyone else with my hair, so much so that he was THE barber for my wedding! He always ensures that my hair and facial hair is exactly as I want them and we always chop it up the entire time I am getting a hair cut. He is essentially now my friend and no longer just my barber, which is a true testament to Drew, the shop as a whole and all the Barbers who are there, who are always super welcoming and chill whenever I come in. Could not recommend this shop enough for all your barbershop needs! read more

Finally found a babershop in the San Mateo area that I will continually go back. My experience with Raydoc was superb. He asked insight questions, was very attention detailed, and made sure I was well taken care of. Fantastic barber! Also a plus, he's just a really nice guy! Totally would recommend coming here if you are in the area! read more

I was in the need of a haircut and came across Full Circle Barbershop on Yelp. I read their story of how their grandfather used to be a barber and now Codie and his brother have come "full circle" and opened up their own barber shop. I did not take pics of the inside of the shop but will do next time I am there. The shop is very clean and cool vibe to it. Codie had music videos playing on a big tv when I walked in. My appointment was at 6:15am so we were the only ones in there so it was quiet, lol! Codie is very friendly and very personable. I was blessed that he was able to fit me in his schedule. I asked for a 0-3 Ball Fade and Codie did an awesome job. Fading was clean and got it lined up as well. I would highly recommend coming to their shop and getting a fresh cut. Congratulations on your engagement as well Codie! read more

Full Circle Barbershop - 0-3 Ball Fade - Barbers Near Me - San Mateo, California

Clean & well kept barbershop, excellent quality. I have been getting haircuts from Drew (one of the co-owners) since 2015 & going here since the first week they opened. He & his brother are a solid team, all the barbers they hired are friendly & skilled at what they do. Clean bathroom & they always offer you a cold water when you arrive. Doc (one of the barbers) & some of the others even have some merch/consignment items so check that out. Highly recommended if you're a young man looking to find a regular barbershop to go to. read more

Drew has been cutting my hair for more than 12 years. Every time he delivers top quality cuts. Which is the reason why I've been following him in his career all these years. Great customer service. Excellent service. The best shop in the bay. read more

Cool vibes. Great service. My son gets his hair done here (beasty_cutz) and always looks fresh.

The owners Drew and Cody are very friendly and knowledgeable people. The prices for the haircuts are very fair and reasonable compared to sf prices. Always satisfied with the quality of the haircut as well as the craftsmanship/skill of Drew. The vibe of the shop is open and welcoming. read more

Newly opened barbershop in the heart of San Mateo. My father needed a haircut for his birthday and we were in the area so we decided to check this place out. When we first went in we were greeted right away which was really nice. I think they were having their soft opening so we were able to get an appointment for my dad right away. Drew cut his hair and did a great job! He really listened to what my dad wanted and even styled it nicely for him. The place itself looks sparkling clean with the decor and the really nice chandeliers. This place is in a very central location, I even had time to get Philz coffee next door while waiting which was nice! Overall I definitely recommend this place if you're looking for a great haircut with chill vibes. read more

Hands down one of the best barbershops in San Mateo! Took my cousin here to get a haircut. Let me just say all of the barbers are very professional and welcoming individuals. All the barbers take their time in paying attention to the details and make sure their customers leave with the haircut they want. Highly recommended Full Circle Barbershop! read more

I've had my fair share of bad haircuts in the past, mainly cause I have gone to barbers in the past that never seem to understand my hair texture/hair type - So, I did my research and came across Ritz (BeastyCutz) and I couldn't be more happy that I did. Time after time, Ritz gets it right, and his attention to detail and how quick he is, is out of this world given how young he is. I've gotten my hair cut over 10 times by him and have never been disappointed or seen any flaws. His talent and knowledge with his work deserves way more than 5 stars, and I can easily say that I found my go to barber. Thanks Ritz! read more

Full Circle is a complete barbershop: welcoming, clean, friendly, humorous and professional. The crew is tight knit with a level of expertise that consistently blows my mind! Special acknowledgment for ZayDoc of Ethnic Blendz who's cut my hair half a dozen times. His attention to detail, easygoing skill and calm demeanor is a consistent pleasure. I haven't had so many compliments on my 'do in years as I've had since turning over my head to him! read more

It's hard to find serious barbers, I found a place where they truly respect the craft. I was invited in and welcomed warmly as I had my first cut from here today from Zaydoc. I was throughly impressed by the focus and attention to detail...I left with a perfect fade. I'll definitely be back and I highly recommend. read more

10/10 service and overall vibe ! super welcoming! Would recommend to ANYONE looking for a haircut! Perfect for kids too! read more

I really dislike trying to find a new Barber to cut my hair, since Covid I have lost 3 Barbers whom I've come to trust to cut my hair. Today I lost the 3 Barber and I was beside myself. I am semi retired so getting a regular haircut. I tend to get more cuts in the summer and let it grow out in the winter. So as I was walking home dreading having to find a new Barber when I remembered a new Barber shop opening right smack in the middle of my neighborhood so I headed there as I like to spend my money in my local community. I walked into Full Circle and was immediately greeted with a smile and a huge amount of energy. I sat down with Drew and we immediately connected on so many levels.? He and his wifey are currently raising their young family that I raised my family in back in the 80's and 90's, but let's get back to my cut. Drew asked me a few questions on how I normally groom my hair etc, and he went to work. Obviously we had an in-depth convo, about each other's experiences etc: I came away from this cut feeling really good with not only my cut but felt really good that I chose to stop this shop. With their outstanding attitude and just the down to earth vibes, I can tell Drew and his Brother will do very well here in San Mateo. Thanks for the experience Drew! read more

This full service barbershop is so very cool. The brothers set an extremely inviting vibe with red carpet at the door, brass posts and great music. Oh, and they can shampoo, shave and style hair like the pros they are. I highly recommend Full Circle. read more

They take time to ensure you're well taken care of in their barbershop. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a great haircut! read more

Hands down codie has been my favorite barber ever. I've been going to him since before he opened his own shop and he's been my go to since 2018. It's always a good time and we always have great conversations while getting my cut. He's the nicest barber I know and has always been more than happy to make any adjustments as I ask for them. My fades are always the freshest and I constantly get compliments on how clean my fades are. If there were more than just five stars he'd easily earn the rest of them. read more

Very skilled workers, very knowledgeable and best believe you will get the cut that you want before you leave the shop, these professionals make coming here a breeze thanks !! read more

Full Circle Barbershop is everything you need from a barber shop. The crew is electric and knows how to treat customers at all times. It's a great experience coming in, and an even better one leaving (because your haircut will look immaculate). Founded by Codie and his brother, Drew, they are both Bay Area natives with a grandfather who owned his own shop in San Francisco. Can't recommend this place enough. read more

Went into Full Circle Barbershop for the first time and I must say I was very impressed. As soon as I walked in I was immediately greeted by everybody in the shop. It really gave me a family vibe.
