As a chemotherapy patient for breast cancer, I had no time or energy to go to a traditional barber shop. I was also a little intimidated mentally to go into a barber shop full of men as a woman to get a hair cut. I'm so glad I found Notch on Google for the Luxgroom Mobile Barber Shop. I literally called him Wednesday night for an on-demand appointment on Thursday morning. When he arrived I was amazed and so were others that passed by the van. We had a lot of curious people who were amazed by the van and barber shop inside that stopped and made comments about how cool the van was. It's like a luxury barber shop inside where you're the only client plus there's room for one more person if you bring someone along. The barber Notch is a pro and knows clearly how to make you look your best. I'm a chemotherapy patient for breast cancer with type 4 hair so cold caps really weren't going to do me any good, I have 3 more treatments to go and I had a lot of bald spots. I highly recommend Notch and his Luxgroom Mobile Barber service, his service is worth it! read more

The best of the best! I am very particular about my hair. Asian male hair is challenging as its very straight, you can see every mistake. However, with Notch, he listens and knows exactly how to cut hair like mine. My new favourite barber! read more

So I waited about 3 weeks to write this review in hopes that someone would contact me to somehow fix the issue but that didn't happen so here's my long story. Was a great barbershop before pandemic. Often was late starting the appointment but no bd. Went to them last year during the pandemic while they still had a shop. Great experience and even left an extra tip because times were/are hard and I'd been going there for a year at that point. Fast forward to a couple of weeks. Went through the booking site, the same way I've done since day one. First thing I noticed was the dramatic price increase which I was willing to do. Obviously it's hard for a lot of us to stay afloat right now. Ended up charging me close to $70 right then and there which is a little different compared to other places which will charge you after your cut or if you miss the appointment. Also if people expect a tip, that's $80 for a cut which is outrageous for a fade. I was aware they were doing mobile now so I decided to double check and see where the appointment is exactly. The schedule site which took my money did not give me an exact address but a location in front of city hall. Went to city hall, could not find them. Called the phone, no answer. By this point my appointment has passed and now the location has disappeared. Called again, no answer. Went to their Instagram where they had just posted a story recently so I DM'd them. No response. Called again and tried to leave a voicemail but the mailbox is full. Not knowing what to do now, I even walked all the way back to the old place to see if someone might be around which they weren't. At this point I'm annoyed so as a last resort, I comment on their page "is there a phone that someone actually picks up? Would like to know how to fix my appointment" or something like that. The next day, I noticed my comment had been removed and yet no one had contacted me at that point so that wasn't a good look. When I finally get a text, was expecting something like "hey man! Saw there was a mixup. Sorry about that. What can we do to help". Nothing like that. Instead I was asked if I booked through their app and did I get the email that was sent mid pandemic? Also to next time make sure I use the app... why is the customer getting blamed for the booking website not showing where they are? Why have the booking website if it doesn't even tell me how to find you? I get there's an app but if that was the only way to find where they are, why did my money still get taken? Explained how I tried multiple ways of contacting them and the booking website gives the location but no one was there and ended with, the whole thing seemed a little considering and how can we fix this sense my money was taken but no haircut... got ghosted after that. Super disappointed. We are all struggling. My money was taken and they made it seem like it was my fault because I didn't use their app or read a random email that may have been sent during the pandemic. Seems a little shady to take my money but won't pick up the only phone number available and are putting it on me because I didn't use an app. The website that took my money should be enough especially if I don't even have a smart phone. Great pre pandemic but things got a little sloppy and I won't be going back. read more

Notch has been cutting my hair for a couple of years now. Dispight the fact that moved out of SF (and no longer work in the City), I still make the trek because Notch is a great barber. Notch can be a man of few words, and a couple of reviewers seem to find that irritating. This place is my favorite barbershop because they give the best haircuts, which is what most matters to me. read more

Cleanest lines. Period. Go see Sergio. Came in from Seattle looking for a lineup, found this place, literally the best decision of my trip. Sergio squeezed me and a buddy in as a walk in, hung out, super laid back atmosphere, but the cuts are razor sharp. This is THE barber shop. Classic in every sense. Can't speak high enough about this shop. read more

Luxgroom Mobile Barber Technologies - Sergio lining up my homie. EXTRA PROPER - Barbers Near Me - San Francisco, California

I'll be honest when I first left the shop I wasn't a fan of my cut, but I went to the nearest star bucks and wet my hair, got all the gel out and now I love it! Like the name suggests, they pay attention to detail, very precise lineup and fade. very good vibe and atmosphere, barbers all seemed nice and talkative shoutout to my man Pope for the cut, I'll definitely come back here the next time I'm in sf. read more

I got my haircut here over Memorial Day Weekend while I was in town for a wedding. I was nervous about going to a new barber but Notch did an amazing job! The price is probably higher than most other cities (more expensive than DC) but I can understand why, it's SF. The cut was worth the money and I ended up referring the rest of the groomsmen here after their scheduled appointment was messed up. Definitely go here if you aren't sure which shop to choose when you are in the area. read more

On Tuesday November 20th I made a reservation for a clipper haircut with Eric for Wednesday the 21st, when you book online you have to enter a credit card and given that I needed a cut before the holiday I didn't mind doing so. I woke up on the morning of the 21st to a Cancellation Notice email at 7:38am. No explanation, no other availability options just straight up cancelled the day off. My suggestion, don't bother entering your credit card info and look elsewhere. read more

Great cut, and nice staff. I called in the afternoon and was able to easily get an appointment for the evening. Corey took care of me, and did a great job. He was efficient (which was appreciated as I was in a bit of a hurey) and very agreeable. read more

Don't go to Details if you do not like socializing. Everyone there is ready to engage in conversation, tell some jokes, have some laughs, and have fun. I've seen Nicky the Barber cut some really rad mullets and Mohawks. Notch runs a very nice shop, and guys like Kyle and Donte are making people look sharp, left and right. The guys at Details are capable of cutting anyone's hair, and they do a damn good job of it. I recommend this place for any hairstyle. If you want to get your hair cut at a place you can go to relax, bullshit, and have fun, go to Details. All jokes aside, when I first got a haircut from Nicky the Barber, it was like the first time I had ever had my hair cut. He is a pro. Since I've started going to Nicky for my haircuts, I have not had to worry about what it looks like. I just know it looks great. Being a great barber is one thing, but Nicky is a great guy, as well. He goes out of his way to help/make things easier for his clients, and I count him as one of my friends because of it (and other reasons, obviously). read more

I've been visiting Nicky the Barber for about a year now. My haircut is consistently clean, exactly what I want, and keeps over time. This is the classic barber experience I spent a long time hunting for. He's unfailingly pleasant and friendly. Be ready to make a friend, he's going to take care of you like he's known you forever. Nicky takes pride in making everyone look their best. The shop is bright and comfortable. It's a place to sit back, relax, and let them make you look sharp. read more

NICKY THE BARBER!!! Talk about taking the time to be detailed. Nicky has all the skill and the patience to get your hair right and if interested enlighten you on a little gangster history. Now, be sure you have the time to allow him to make magic because this is not your 20 minute tuppercut job. He labors to make you look great and is constantly wanting your feedback. The shop is nicely appointed and filled with a number of talented men to equally provide great service. You won't be disappointed. read more

Had a great cut today in this amazing shop! It's a cool, suave and comfortable shop where I got the best cut ever. Roz should be called out for being my fav cutter but I am sure all the rest are top notch! You really need to get yourself up to their shop and let Roz make you into a new person (at least from the scalp up)!! read more

I got a lady's hair cut for $35 from Notch, cut off all my hair and I haven't stopped getting compliments. He even let me style it myself and come back later in the day to touch it up once my curl pattern was in full effect. Great view of the city from the 12th floor where his shop is. Two thumbs up read more

One of the worst barbershop. I came around 12pm the Only owner of the business was cutting hair. The owner didn't have any great customer service. Didn't acknowledge me while I walked in I ask him if there any wait time. The owner informed that there will be second barber coming at 1. I leave come back around 1 there owner still didn't say anything to me. I sit down then 15 seconds going by then no respond finally he asked for my name to put in the schedule. I still waited the second barber. The second still haven't show up. So I waited for awhile. I looked at the time it's been a hour since I waited. So I told I'm going to take off the owner said the second barber was barely getting off Bart. I don't understand why is there only one person cutting people hairs. read more

For a fresh cut in union square this is the place to go. Got lucky finding this place. From out of town and was in a bind to find a place where I could walk in. 5 stars read more

Made an appointment on the website. Went to the 555 Sutter address and couldn't find the place. I then tried to call and was informed by the voicemail message they moved to 305 Sutter. Headed to 305 Sutter and found that the shop has a no trespassing sign on the door. Still no answers to my call. What a waste of time. read more

I made an appointment for 4:00 and showed up at 3:55. I waited until 4:25 without even an acknowledgement that I was there. Then, when it was my turn the gentleman that was supposed to cut my hair decided to take someone without an appointment before me for a quick beard trim. At that time I walked out because when I have an appointment I wouldn't expect to be at the barber for over an hour for a simple haircut. Aside from that haircuts are $45. The guy seemed cool enough that is why I dont give one star. read more

I went here again last week to get my lineup and a little taken off the sides and can I just reiterate... BRILLIANCE. His precision and patience always has me leaving out with a PERFECT haircut. If you haven't tried him you are DEFINITELY missing out. PS.A perfect lineup is the way to my heart!! read more

Definitely a great barbershop. Just moved to the west coast and it's been difficult to find a good barber to pay attention to Details. I will be back!! read more

I was very disappointed with the bad attitude and service from this dump. I waited for 1/2 hour before the rude black guy asked if I had an appt. when I told him that I didn't, he then skipped me to took another customer. His whole attitude was rude and discriminatory. The other barber at one point, took out his phone to text someone, while he was in the middle of a cut. I couldn't believe it. I left without a haircut which I am very grateful for. read more

Luxgroom Mobile Barber Technologies - Barbers Near Me - San Francisco, California

I made a appointment for a 10am and arrived 10 minutes early since they reportedly opened at 930. Barber arrived a few minutes after 10 and apparently their already was someone else waiting and he just proceeded to cut their hair first. By 1030 I decide to leave since I have a meeting at 11. Barber has never acknowledged my presence up to this point until I ask for a refund which he obliges and quickly says sorry and I leave. I proceed to walk down 11 flights of stairs because one of the elevators is broken and it's very slow. My hair is still long read more

Notch is an excellent barber. Very quick and efficient, and leaves my hair looking right with clean lines and a good blending technique. (this is all for my fade FYI) His shop is a lil small, but the building its located in is cool. The building itself has lots of old-timey character, while his shop is clean with plenty of sports memorabilia on the walls. Also, since his shop is on the 7th floor, you get away from all the bs on market st. This dude is legit...best haircut I've gotten in a while. read more

I must give my man Notch his due props. This kid can go!!! I live in Sunnyvale and tried several barbers and came out less than impressed and underwhelmed. I'm used to well blended fades and crisp razor lines. Many are good at one or the other, few are good at both. Notch is that dude! He came up thru the ranks with my barber in Plano TX - Larry Graham. If you move to the Bay from elsehere don't waste your time bouncing around. Come straight to the source and "get your wig split" by Notch. Big ups!! read more

Just had my haircut by Notch while on vacation this week in San Francisco. Really enjoyed talking with him, interesting guy. Gave me a detailed cut with scissors, attention to detail. His shop i small but has a good vibe, comfortable. He takes his time [like he should] so be sure to book an appointment. 5 stars for an old-school talent. read more

I've been coming here for a month or two now and I have been more than satisfied each time. I've been to a number of barbers in the city, including FSC in the Mission, and none match up to the guy at Details. In addition to the good quality, the prices are good as well. He does a great job lining me up with the straight razor and always has me looking very sharp. Both my wife and friends have given me compliments for how good it looks after I have been here. I don't trust anyone else with my hair now. The location is good too; from the 12th floor, it has a nice view of the area around Union Square, as well as views of the bay and part of AT&T Park. I haven't had any issues with not being able to get in at the times I want and have only had to wait 1 time, for 10 minutes, while there. As previously mentioned, the prices are more than agreeable -- $25 for the haircut (a #2 all the way around) and to line me up with the straight razor. When I went to FSC in the Mission, they wanted to charge me something like $35 for the haircut (a #2 length all the way around) and when I just wanted to have a #2 done for my whole beard as well, they wanted to charge another $40 for that, "If they had to touch the beard at all." If I wanted to have it lined with a straight razor, that was going to be extra as well. Maybe it's just me, but over $70 for a damn #2 all the way around and to line me up? No thank you. Not to mention the person did a horrendous job lining me up at FSC. After seeing the quality of the work he does, I understand why he calls the place "Details Barbershop" -- because he most definitely pays attention to detail! And when it comes to my hair, that's exactly what I want. If you are looking for a place to get a quality haircut at a good price and with a good view of the city to boot, I would HIGHLY recommend coming here. You will not be disappointed. read more

A year later and I'm still happy that I chose Notch. I'm starting to believe he's the best barber I've ever been to. Extremely punctual, and my cut is always sharp. I have no complaints. Not to mention the intellectual conversations in the shop. read more

Luxgroom Mobile Barber Technologies - Perfectly blended, I just keep looking at it. - Barbers Near Me - San Francisco, California

I came to visit from Orange County. I went to look for a barber shop and came across Notchs spot and had a hair cut from Sergio. Great cut, great vibe. When you come through, be sure to know your sports. PS. APPOINTMENTS ONLY! Apparently people don't visit the site and just show up. PSS. It went to game 7 Notch. read more

I was excited about my first ever shave, which didn't disappoint. The hot towel, steam and gentle exfoliation, all taking place within an ever-present yet unacknowledged threat of decapitation, made for an amazing experience (and shave). I plan to make this just the first of an ongoing indulgence. The surprise though was the haircut. I've reached the point where the street's been busy for so long that very little grass grows. This doesn't bother me in itself, but it leads to unpleasant choices. Do you crop it completely, which I thought was the kindest approach aesthetically, yet requires quite a lot of maintenance and expense? Do you engage in magical thinking and convince yourself that your comb-over will succeed where others failed? Do you dress up as Mr. Clean each and every day? None of the above, so I've discovered. You just go see Notch. He did a beautiful blend or maybe it's a taper in the back that created texture and a facsimile of volume and found the sweet spot for the length(s) of those buggers on top that stick straight up when cut too short and droop toward the comb-over side if left too long. The result is something close to a styled, sharp head of hair. There was no fuss. Nice unforced talk and comfortable silence, punctuality and courtesy. I'm a new and future customer. read more

I've been coming here a little over a year. Notch never disappoints. Laid back, friendly atmosphere matched with the cleanest cuts I've ever had. Great location just blocks from my office (which matters to me) and close to all the shopping and fun of Union Square. If you want a fresh cut, go see Notch. He'll take care of you. read more

Called and asked for one person I read about and was happy cause he was available. I got cleaned up today and I honestly like it - a lot. I should be back shortly. I got a nice clean fade. Pony tail all this week so I can show it off. read more

Have been to this place a total of 4 times now. 3 of those have been cuts with Nicky the Barber, who has given me without a doubt the best haircuts I've ever had. He's very thorough and leaves no detail unattended to. He's a true master of his craft. As for the shop itself it's super convenient to my work downtown and makes it easy to pop in. The other guys in the shop are all good fellas and it creates a relaxed atmosphere that's fun to hang out in. read more

Found my new barber. Notch came highly recommended from my buddy who said he was the best and he didn't disappoint. I was a little hesitant at first to put down the extra money as im used to putting down less than $18 at a local barber shop, but this was well worth it, definitely a master of his craft. You may not think it, but there are drastic differences. He can essentially do any cut you want, just tell him. If I had a beard I would probably get my beard cut from him as well. Also love what he did to the place, had photos of the G.O.A.T - MJ, all across the room and that in itself was dope. Scheduling was cake, he's got a system where you can just book online, and he was pretty prompt. Overall, had a great experience, great conversations and best of all a highly satisfying cut. See you in a few weeks Notch! read more

Nicky the Barber is fantastic. Though I live in San Diego, I'll try to schedule haircuts for my visits to SF. His attention to detail, skill and talent, as well as his ability to keep the conversation interesting are all part of the Nicky magic. I think you can't go wrong here. Best haircut I've had in a decade at least. read more

Found Notch on Yelp. With no personal recommendation I took a shot and it worked out. He's the real deal -- good small shop in a great location. The haircut was solid for a clipper cut. I could benefit from a scissor trim at the end to clean up stray hairs but to be honest I didn't ask (or pay extra for) a scissor cut. If he had handled that proactively it'd be a 5-star review ;-) Notch is a personable guy, does a great job, and the view from the shop is outstanding. Highly recommended. read more

Ask for Notch. He'll do you right, especially if you're looking for anything that has to do with a buzzer, fade, short scissor trim. Speaking from personal experience, although I've seen him handle all types of different hair styles and cuts. read more

Unhappy with the service. Cut wasn't what I wanted. Barber agreed to make changes later if needed. Friends pointed out the sides look weird... no biggie, I've had barbers touch up hair before. Messaged barber a couple of days later asking if he was available to fix the hair and he was extremely uncooperative - suggested I go somewhere else! I asked for a partial refund and he declined. Don't go here if you want someone who stands behind their work. read more

Great place. Very good hair cut and amazing conversation. Ok we talked about the NBA, Kobe, Jordan, and the Lakers. I highly recommend Dante. Cool dude. read more

Pretty cool Barbershop.. the prices are a bit steep though. $45 for a line up, taper fade & to line facial hair up. If you're going I recommend going to Donte. read more

Donte is on his game. A great barber who knows his craft. Hooked me up with a clean fade before my sisters wedding. Very flexible and great with the clippers. Will definitely go again anytime. read more
