Came by for a hair cut the the other day and it was a quick and easy experience. Parking was plentiful in the private strip mall. There was no signage on the front of the hair salon. Walked in and was able to be serviced within a few minutes by a staff member wearing a mask. The haircut was quick and easy with no upsell. $15 + gratuity for a men's haircut. Cash only. read more

The service was really disappointing this time. I used to go there because their prices were reasonable and the quality was acceptable. Normally, the haircut here would take about 5-10 minutes, but this time the lady finished in just 3-5 minutes. She asked how I wanted it -- from 1 to 5 -- but I had no idea what those numbers meant, and she went ahead and chose "medium" on her own. She spent most of the time chatting with her friends instead of focusing on the cut. At the end, she even asked for a tip, which I gave, but I'll never go back. Good luck to them! read more

Been coming here for years. David and Nancy are good people trying to make a honest living. Haircut prices have increased to $15. Still a fair price given the rent prices and inflation Just be sure to bring enough cash! read more

Great price, Only $15 men's hair cut cheapest in area quality work! Definitely will return!

Would you wait 25 minutes with an appointment and pay $20 for a 10 minute haircut? Called up this morning at 9am when they opened for an appointment. Earliest they could give me was 1pm. 12:05pm walked from home to the library to pick up books, and then left at 12:30pm to walk along El Camino Real and through the construction and closed sidewalk at Hollenbeck, to reach Lucky Cuts at 12:55pm. Second in line, for only with people with appointments. Shooting the breeze with another waiting masked customer outside the shop, as no waiting inside the shop. McDonalds in front of the shop has been closed for months, while Sunny Nails next door now offering $12 haircuts, and Madras Cafe next door jammed packed on this Saturday afternoon. 1:20pm, called in for my haircut. Get the older bald guy, while the other waiting customer gets lucky and gets the young attractive gal to give him his cut. Barber not only fully masked, but also wearing a face shield. Can't be too careful. He's all business as he has a full house today and tomorrow. All the barbers here are from the same Vietnamese family, with the older lady retired -too dangerous during the pandemic being a barber, even with customers masked the entire time. 1:30pm, haircut done. $8 haircut 2010-2018, $10 haircut 2019, $12 haircut 2020. Cash only. He wishes me a happy holiday, and goes on to the next person standing in line outside. Came here March 15 to get a haircut the day before the first lockdown. August 5, outdoor haircutting permitted, but no can do at Lucky. Came here December 5 Saturday to get a haircut before the lockdown tomorrow, Sunday, at 10pm shuts down all barber shops in Santa Clara. San Francisco, and Contra Costa counties. After tomorrow you'll have to get a haircut in San Mateo county, before they impose a lockdown in a week or two. Madras Cafe jammed with people trying to get a last chance outdoor dining meal. Only take out after Sunday. I give the Barber a $20 and tell him to keep the change. He'll need it, as the first lockdown shut him down for six months. Hope he survives the second lockdown, as this is still the cheapest place to get a haircut -but only if you have a very simple haircut style like me. read more

This was by far THE WORST haircut I've received in my entire life. The materials were extremely unsanitary--I sat down and there was hair on the cape before she even started cutting. The hairdressers barely understand English and were extraordinarily rude. They do not understand how to work with curly hair or treat it properly. My hairdresser pulled my hair out an unacceptable amount of times and in the end she just had me brush my hair myself. I had really nice thick hair before and now I barely have any hair left. I also asked for curtain bangs (any other salon I've went to can do this!!!!!) and they were completely uneven on both sides. I kept telling her to even them out, instead she just got mad at me and cut more hair off. Do NOT come here!!!!!!! You will regret it!!!!!!!!!!! read more

In and out for a great cut! Apologies for forgetting her name, but the lady was friendly and gave a great cut.

Such a bad store in this whole Bay are, i don't have recommendations on this place. All are really bad persons. Kim is really worst person, she doesn't know how to cut the haircut. It's really shameful read more

CASH ONLY. I'm always looking for a local haircut place for a simple haircut. We arrived and there was no line so my kiddo was able to get his haircut right away. I asked for the haircut #s and the older man got right to it. After about 15-20 minutes he was done, paid, and we were on our way. This is a local reliable haircut place. I'm happy with the outcome and look forward to coming to get a trim when I need one. I will update this review once I get a haircut. read more

Great service! Walk-ins are welcome! I like how they are open to customers as they advertise!

I think you gotta set an expectation before you come here. You know the cut is only $12, even in 2021 after the pandemic lockdown. You should be expecting the basic stuff here. I was in and out in about 30 min, the haircut is nice, I told the guy to cut it in a certain number and length, he asked me whether it's good after, and made some adjustment. It's a family run business, and maybe they're not professional, but they have been doing it for many years, I still think they can cut better than me.. so I'm happy. Verdict is if you want a fast and cheap haircut, just come here, and support the small business. read more

Nothing fancy about this place except for their low prices! It's a simple place, great for a quick and cheap man's haircut. I can't speak to women's haircuts, but I have seen women who sound like regulars getting haircuts. I've only gotten a haircut and can't speak to their other services such as hair washing. As long as you understand what you're getting, I think this is a great place for a haircut. Don't expect a salon and remember to bring cash! read more

I am a regular visitor to this place. As you enter the shop, the man and the lady who cuts hair on the right two side are good. I have no complaints against them. But the lady who cuts hair far end on the left side is poor. She cut my hair more than what I mentioned and was not apologetic about it. She never cleaned the seat after the previous person got his hair cut. read more

Best value haircut joint. $8 for a simple men's cut. And make no mistake: It's very much a cash-only establishment: http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/lucky-cuts-sunnyvale?select=e98dsRocqcbDXikTW87flA#e98dsRocqcbDXikTW87flA read more

Lucky Cuts - Did I mention it's cash only? - Hair Salons Near Me - Sunnyvale, California

We had some time to kill before dinner after running errands in Sunnyvale. So I figured I should get a haircut since my parents were flying in the next day to celebrate Grandma's birthday. I relied on trusty Yelp and was happy to find Lucky Cuts, which is endorsed by fellow Yelp friend Robert C. An $8 hair cut is extremely hard to beat, especially if you have a very simple, no-frills, thinning hair style like mine. Its even harder to beat when there's no line! To top it off, it was a really fast service - must have been under 15 minutes. Only complaint is that I wished they swept up all the hair on the floor before seating me. read more

Lady on the left roughly rushed through my haircut in less than five minutes using only the shears! Avoid her at all costs.

Just got my hair cut there for $15. Lowest I can find in the area. Did a good job for the cut for the price. Would definitely consider again in the future. read more

Don't go here if you want a skin fade. You're welcome. I get that it's cheap but a simple skin fade should be standard for ALL Barber shops. read more

Lucky Cuts - Bad fade - Hair Salons Near Me - Sunnyvale, California

While a lot of people have rated them highly with a lot of 5*, I found this place to be worth no more than 1*. Realize that most people who review them are also those who ask them to "cut their hair so that they do not have to brush/comb them" meaning that these peeps have no idea how they want their hairs to look. Most customers are those that walk here shabby, in flip flops and that don't give a damn about how their hairs look and all that matters to them is a hair cut in 5 mins. Well, this ain't a 10 min speedy oil changer folks.. Extremely disappointed with the hair cut today. This place is run by a Vietnamese family consisting of mommy, daddy (the old man with bald head), their son and another lady. Most people go here because they are the cheapest option in the neighborhood and that obviously means no frills haircut, i.e, no fading and all that fancy hair cut that you have been dreaming. I have visited them a handful of times and they have done reasonably well in cutting the hairs. I always choose his son or wife because they are patient and don't rush you but that can't be said of the old man, who I have seen people avoiding in the past and I now know why. I typically go for # 4 on the side and finger length on top and asked the man the same cut today. His son wasnt around so I thought let us try the hair cut with him. I am not sure what his definition of finger length is, because he cut my hairs to 1/3rd of finger length. Perhaps he envisions a finger length as that of a toddler. I have always convinced myself that cheapest is not always the worst but I guess today I walked out of this shop with that impression. Needless to say, I am not going back and will give my business to another barber that sits by Sunnyvale downtown. Posted are two pictures to show how my hairs look ( plain awful) and what a finger length is. I hope the owner takes a note. read more

I walked in on a weekend and was able to get a haircut after a short wait. I have long hair and the cost was $25 to layer the front and cut the back in an oval shape. The lady who cut my hair was fast and did a great job. I will be coming back. read more

Fantastic place to get a haircut at an affordable price. Been coming here for over a year and the folks who run the place are really kind and respect COVID protocols. Walk ins are welcome but if you do, come early. I've never had a bad experience here - the cuts are consistent, nothing fancy like you'd see at a boutique salon, but fantastic otherwise read more

I walked in without a appointment received a haircut that was Perfectly done and was out in 20 min . Great job ! Highly recommended

Great little hole in the wall hair cutting place. Accommodating and hard workers. They are so inexpensive, try tipping them as I'm sure they don't make much from the actual hair cutting read more

Awesome haircut and price both times Ive been there! Recommend highly, I've been to other places around the area that cost more but not as good as Luckys read more

Decided to get a haircut last minute and got there at 7:45 pm, 15 minutes before closing. I didn't get in the chair until closing time due to a few customers before me, but they weren't phased at all. The gentleman was very understanding about what I wanted, being sure to ask questions when I was ambiguous. The haircut was perfect. Somehow he was extremely meticulous while also working faster than most other barbers. Hands down one of the best haircuts I've gotten. The most surprising part of my experience was the $8 price tag; incredibly difficult to find value like this in the Bay Area. The only deal that rivals this is $1 tacos. I left the shop excited about coming back for my next haircut, I don't think I've ever had that feeling before... Thanks, Lucky Cuts! read more

Finally able to make it back to Lucky Cuts for a trim. Nancy does a great job with my hair and adding a little layer. Usually I don't need to make an appointment but when they get busy, I'll call for one. The shop is simple but for COVID they clean after each hair cut and you wear your mask as does the whole salon. My parents like getting their haircuts there as well and always ask for Nancy. read more

Wanted to see how bad cheap haircuts could be. So I came in with no expectations. Came out pretty happy (disclaimer : I am just a regular guy with not much hair style sense, so my standard for good hair cut is pretty low :). As long as hair cut is uniform & I look good, I will be happy) I went on Thursday evening and yet I had to wait for 15 minute. So pretty popular place. 8$ cash. read more

It's $10 for a women's haircut, $65 for highlights. The haircut is a great deal for the price! The highlights were done with a lot of care and look great, although it's a tad expensive. It's a very bare-bones place, and the line can get pretty long on weekends (~40 minutes wait) - so I suggest coming here on a weekday. Both my haircut & my highlights were done by the young-ish female barber with a young daughter who sits by her, I highly recommend her. She's now my regular barber. I used to go to another place nearby, but the stylist got way too popular and his phone started ringing off the hook like he was some kind of celebrity. Then he'd stop mid-haircut to answer the phone. Finally he started wearing Kanye sunglasses, and that was the last straw. How can you properly see someone's hair if you're wearing Kanye sunglasses?! What if you cut off their ear instead?! I would name the place, but my folks still go there and I'm afraid that if I give it a bad review the stylist with attitude will banish them forever! Sorry for the tangent, but I knew I had to go elsewhere to get personal attention and care - and Lucky Cuts gives me that. I give them a solid 3 stars. read more

I did a haircut at Lucky Cuts just today. I went all the way from San Jose to this place since I was going to be around. The staff is friendly, gets your haircut done swiftly, the price is great and the haircut was GREAT. I used to go to SuperCuts but I think my cut today was way better than any SuperCut I had previously. I told the lady to cut it short. She cut the hair to suit my face rather than cutting it way too short. They do not accept any cards and takes only Cash which is no big deal. read more

Came in without an appointment on a Sunday morning and didn't have to wait too long before Nancy did a wonderful job on my hair. I cut off about 7 inch of hair and I'm very pleased with how it turned out. Price was $15. read more

Excellent haircuts from very friendly staff. I went to the great clips up the road and was told there would be a 45 minute wait by a rather rude stylist. Decided to try this place because it was nearby. For $8 you get an EXCELLENT haircut. There was no wait and the haircut looks great. Save your time and $$$ and give these guys a shot. read more

It's a cheap place to get a haircut ($7.99 last check). What I like is that I can get in and out in about 15 minutes or so. The barbers (save for one and trust me you'll know which one when you get there) aren't talkative which is fine with me. I just want to get my hair cut and move on with my life. If you like you hair cut a certain way, just tell them and they'll do it (or the best that they can). If you like the way someone cuts your hair, make sure you get their name and remember their face and have them cut your hair every time you go there. That's what I do and I have no complaints. I'll even wait until my barber is free to get the cut I want. Even when they are busy, the line moves pretty quickly. If you call ahead you can make an appointment to avoid the wait. If you go here make sure you bring cash. They don't take credit cards. read more

Fast easy and good price! The family that run this place have been there go so many years and thy do a very good job. They take their time with each customer and always smile. The place is a bit out dated and would be nice if it gets cleaner. Other than that, their service and price is much better than the big store chains such as supper cut. read more

Great place for the price. No frills. Remember who was there when you walked in because there's no sign-in sheet. It's up to the crowd to know who's next. Go during an off time for the best experience. read more

Consistently good hair cuts at a very good price, super friendly service, man I love this place. This is my usual haircut place, the barbers/hairdressers do an excellent job at men's hair. I even brought my grandma here and they did an excellent job with her hair. They are attentive and very skilled. If you need a haircut definitely come here for one read more

Love this place! Great cut every time. Same people each time so they know what they're doing. Clean, quick, and consistent :)

I've gotten my haircut here a handful of times, only because it's cheap and everywhere else I've tried cost a little bit more for about the same results. I used to get my haircut by Kim. Each time it's been hit or miss. Sometimes, she'll take her time and do a decent trim. Most of the time, she'll rush you through if there are a lot of walk-ins and people waiting. (I used to always make an appointment, too). When she rushed me through, my hair would look terrible. The layers wouldn't blend and everything would be choppy and uneven. Of all the times I've gone, I've gotten more bad cuts than good ones. I gave 2 stars: one star for the 1 (maybe 2) times I got a decent trim and the other star for my own fault for getting what I paid for. How much can I expect from a cheap haircut? ($14 before tips) After the last bad cut, I decided to stop going for good. Time to find a truly skilled hairdresser and just pay more! If you're just looking for a quick trim with no style or you just want a buzz cut, I would recommend this place. Keep looking if you need to cut long layers or if you're a guy who wants some style. This place has no idea about styles. read more

You know a lot of these reviews seem to be critical for a $8 haircut. Yes the place is sort of run down, but that's just low overhead. Yes everything is outta the 80s, but you don't need to pay for crazy ambiance. Not sure about that smell, but it is between a McDs and Indian place. Fact is, it's a no nonsense haircut place. Eight bucks for a cut (and I try to tip well), they do a good job (honestly I get compliments on their haircuts) and they'll be quick if you want them too. I can't speak for the ladies and their color/perm/weave/whatevers, but for a basic haircut you can't ask for much for than this. read more
