Lee Does awesome fades. Very clean. Good with kids. Smiles with great customer service. Gave us a great deal. Thanks Lee. read more

This has been my go to spot since moving here a few years ago. I met Lee and he has been giving me solid cuts every time. Wait is never too long and the AC is a nice added bonus during the hot summer months. I think he's Buddhist so sometimes he burns incense and it gives the place a certain scent - just mentioning that in case anyone has allergies or nose sensitivities. read more

I came to this barber shop , the first time I really like this place the guy was asking 20 for haircut , the second time I came there was a different guy his name was Lee , he did OK haircut , also his smoking inside and display have a smell of strong cigarettes , then he put on me a lot of hair gel by the end without asking me . When I came to pay 20+ tip he said " no my price is 30+ tip " , I was in shock he made me feel uncomfortable next to the people who were waiting I felt really bad , after I thought I found the right place to do haircut I feel now like I never wanna go back there , 30+ tip for ok haircut + sticky gel by the end + cigarettes smoke inside of the shop no thank you I'm never going to come back ! read more

My husband stopped by without an appointment while he was out for a walk. Lee was very welcoming and engaged in conversation. You can tell he has a loyal group of customers that see him consistently, and my husband will be now be joining them. The haircut did not disappoint! read more

As soon as I walked in, Erwin was welcoming and had a big smile on his face. He obviously loves what he does! I am a difficult client to deal with because I'm pretty particular about how my hair gets cut, but he exceeded my expectations. He threw in his own seasoning and sent me away with a +10 confidence boost! Great barber, fair prices, and I support this business fully! read more

The best price and a great haircut! I have been coming to this shop for over ten years... friendly and just a nice atmosphere. read more

Great customer service, as soon as I walked in I was welcomed and the barber even made sure I paid my parking meter and also offered quarters if I needed any. I got a fade expecting a quick cheap cut but I got a premium haircut compared to the other small/older shops. I like being able to sit, tell the barber what I want and they take care of it without me needing to ask for anything to get fixed and that is exactly what I got. Go check this guy out and make sure to tip him well to keep his services going. read more

Excellent haircut. Lee did a fantastic job. So detailed and precise. Very happy customer, would definitely be a returning customer.

My husband gets his hair cut here every two weeks and RAVES about his experience. He loves getting his hair cut by a gentlemen here. Says he goes above and beyond than any other shop he's been to. Pulls the back of his shirt and get the hairs along his neck. Great conversations. Thank you for providing great service and customer service! Go early bc they do stay busy. read more

Lee is an interesting character and a good barber. My new regular spot. Fair price not too long of a wait and of course it is clean.

ABSOLUTELY recommend this place. Very personal does a GREAT job. Small place with only two chairs. Only one barber today. Nonetheless, hands down, happy about this cut. read more

Lee is the best in town. I came in from New York needed my hair done and he did an excellent job. Very clean shop and AC was nice and cold on this hot afternoon. He even gave me great recommendations for restaurants in the area. Will absolutely come back to see Lee when I'm in town. 5+ stars. Thank you Lee read more

Le is back in action, since Covid, I've been cutting my own hair,won't trust just anyone! Glad you are back and open for business....I only go see Le, when I need to be so fresh & so clean, clean!!!! read more

I am so thankful that I found this place a couple of years ago! I am very picky and I have had trouble finding a consistent barber in the past. Lee is a perfectionist , and he makes sure your hair is done right. I also bring my autistic son to get his hair cut, and Lee is extremely patient. He does not cut corners, only hair! read more

This shop is close to where I live. They have a sign out front that says, "Senior Haircuts $15". All good. But every time and I mean everytime I go there are four people waiting. There is only one barber. So this means over an hour wait so I just go back home. He must be good or cheap, hopefully both. Getting a decent haircut for less than $25 is a pain. Other shops but similar scenario. Too many customers and not enough good barbers. read more

The best barbershop Lee is the man to go to he will definitely take care of you . I drive from Vista to LA mesa just to get a cut from Lee it's super worth it he always blesses me with a fresh cut also love how he has the vacuum attached to the clippers makes the cut extra clean forsure . Lee forsure the best barber I the world. read more

Awesome place and extremely friendly. This was the first barber shop I've visited since COVID began that clipped my mask behind my neck rather than pull it off my ears - since my last barber cut my mask, I appreciated this little trick! Great low price but not a "cheap" haircut, you're just paying less for incredible service :) read more

I have been getting my hair cut with Lee for sometime now and he is one of the best barbers in the area. He has very competitive prices and his customer service is just awesome. He takes his time doing your hair and you can tell he is a pro. I like that he gives senior citizens discount on for their hair cut and really shows where his heart is. He gives back to the community and I find that simply awesome!! If you are looking for the best fade, hair cut, or barber in La Mesa come to La Mesa Barber Shop and ask for Lee! read more

After setting up an appointment with Supercuts only to walk in with a line of people ahead and a rude lady, I decided it's actually better to support locally. I went to this barber shop and I'm really glad I did. The guy was really nice and he took care of me and my needs with respect. Looks like I found a barber, thank god. No more NotsoSupercuts. read more

They don't cut African American hair. Had me wait as he completed two hair cuts only to tell me in the chair he does cut my type of hair and come back in three days! Someone remind me what year and town we are living in! read more

I tagged along today with my friend and I'm glad I did. The first man paid Irwin a nice compliment, "beautiful work," and he was very gracious a humble with his reply giving credit to the other barber (who was not there). The second man was just as pleased and he looked very nice upon leaving. As my friend got his hair cut we were the only ones there and Irwin had some very nice philosophical things to say as he gave another great cut. Two young boys came in and apparently they've been coming to Irwin since they were small....brothers who were about 14/16. The best part of my experience was being able to witness the kindness and wisdom of this man. I felt privileged to be able to witness his consistent quality of his trade and respect he showed each customer. I'm going to tag along again next time too. read more

I have been coming to this barber shop for seven years or more, great place to get a hair cut. The barber Lee is an awesome barber, he always does a great job on mine and my sons hair cuts. Family friendly too. read more

Just got my first haircut at this barber shop and it's seriously 10x better than the barber I've been going to for years in El Cajon. The place is clean, the barber was nice, the haircut was excellent, and the price was great. I'm so glad I found this place. read more

This is my husbands go-to barber. It's close, cheap and does a good job on his hair and beard. He's been going here for years through more than one owner. I don't think he ever makes an appointment, just stops by and if they aren't busy he gets his trim. Fast and easy, the best way. read more

I've gone to this place several times ever since the initial recommendation from my grandpa. Every time I go, I debate whether or not I should return. The price is very cheap, at $8, and though I saw a sign there that the price is raising to $9 next month, that is still quite cheap. It is also family owned, which is a good thing in my book. I like that I can mosey on in there and feel like I'm just a regular guy stopping by the neighborhood barber back in the days before the corporate take over of everything that has the potential to earn a few bucks. The guy who usually cuts my hair is really nice too, which is cool. The only downsides are that usually my hair does not come out that good. It could be because I lack the ability to communicate to him exactly what it is I want, or that he lacks the ability to do it. I'm not really sure, but for some reason i'm never too happy with the result. At the other place i've been it costs twice as much but I almost always am happy with the result. Another thing that might be a drawback is that sometimes there are a few people in line before you when you arrive. I've only ever seen one guy in there cutting hair at a time, so it usually means you have to wait until everyone before has their hair cut. Not a big deal in my book, but its worth noting cause some people are always in a hurry. Overall, I'll probably go back there lots more times, mostly because i'm cheap. And because I like supporting local/family owned business. My hair usually looks okay about 4 days after I get it cut, so its not really a big deal that I don't usually like the final product. Its worth fewer stars though. read more

This is a great place to get a haircut and I always get my haircuts from Le. He is the young Asian gentleman that the other reviews are talking about. He is always friendly and polite and he even remembered me when I came back! His cuts are clean and pristine that I never left un-satisfied. I would definitely rate this place to be 5 stars because the price is CHEAP for such a detailed quality cut. Heads up he only works Monday/Tuesday/Saturdays. Check this place out and get a cut from Le, you won't be disappointed. read more
