    Joe was outstanding. He is pleasant and fun to talk to. He really strives to make sure your cut is exactly how you want it. I highly recommend Joe to be the one to take care of your haircut.

    A zero fade w/ mini lightening bolt by Miguel

    Made a same day appointment for my 3 year old son for a fade and basic lightening bolt design. Miguel did a good job and gave my son a lollipop- so everyone's happy lol. Just call ahead in case they're busy and you don't want to wait especially if you have a kid. There's street parking or back parking. The fade haircut $25 Design $5

    Been coming here for a minute. Barbers are friendly. Go see Miguel, he's my guy. The store is well decorated with sports and classic memorabilia. They sometimes play loud music or sometimes there is a movie on. If you have kids sometimes the barbers can use foul language, but that could just be because I'm the only one in at times, I'm sure if there were kids or ladies they'd adjust to the circumstances. All n all a good experience, walkins are taken, but you can also make an appointment. So far this is the quickest shop in Alhambra I've found. The least busiest days are Tuesday and Wednesday if you want to be in and out like me. Enjoy! IG : kaliking806 #ViBN

    I've had my haircut by most the barbers here. One thing I can say is all of them have skills, although my son prefers Joe to cut his hair. Everyone is friendly, chill spot and prices are fair. Highly recommended this spot.

    Long waits, missed appointments, gangster rap, no coordinated effort to stay on schedule and nothing but F-bombs from the staff. All conversations by barbers are XXX. Think twice before bringing your little ones for a cut. The owner is present and seems not to care. Mayhem is the order of the day. Once seated, you will like your cut, but the juice may not be worth the squeeze. Insist on Mike or Irma or.....walk around with a f'd up cut and amuse your friends.

    I've gone in to MJ's several times to somewhat supervise my boyfriend's beard grooming. There have been a couple not so great experiences in the past. However, once he started seeing Hugo, it's been smooth sailing. Hugo is attentive, listens to what we (I) envision as the final result, and delivers. Based on our experiences with Hugo, I knew we could trust him with my son's hair. My 8 year old has been growing his hair out as a result of a bad cut a couple months ago (poor guy has been wearing beanies every single day to cover it up) and was more than ready for a repair. We walked in without an appointment and were relieved to see that Hugo was working/available. I really appreciated the attention and patience Hugo displayed. He took the time to find a conversation topic my son would relate to (Fortnite) and didn't show any irritation with my son's constant wiggling. So glad we came in; very happy with the cut. MJ's is conveniently located around the corner from our place, fast and friendly service, decent pricing, and quality cuts.

    If you're looking for a good WALK-IN barber shop, do NOT come here. The vibe is great, there are some barbers there that show proper artistry. However, they are always booked with their clients (which is understandable.) I'm not referring to the barber shop as a whole. I am simply referring to WALK-IN haircuts. Sometimes, a person just needs a haircut in a hurry for a special occasion or whatever reason. That's why walk-ins exist. The issue I have with this barber shop is that they had some one extremely inexperienced to cut my hair. When I say inexperienced, i am referring to: 1. Asking for a mid fade and getting a high fade 2. Asking for length on the top, receiving an 8 guard against the grain. 3. The cut taking 2 hours 4. The shop owner had to come in and fix the destruction to the best of his ability. But as the saying goes, you can't polish a turd. My hair was long and workable for the cut I desired. I even showed the guy a picture to what I was referring to, and got nothing close to what I asked for. Why would they let a "barber" cut someone's hair and charge them 35 dollars for a sloppy job. If I wanted to get messed up, I would much rather have gone to a barber school that charges less and gives lesser quality. It's understandable, they're learning. In this case, they're charging me for someone with poor skill level at med-high skill level prices. Overall, they really destroyed my hair. I have to wait months for my hair to grow back now. Did I mention this was my second time coming? The last time they kind of gave me what I wanted. It wasn't a bad cut, not amazing either. I had to go home and trim some edges myself. Typically, I'm not one to write yelp reviews. I honestly never want to waste the time to do so or really care that much. However his time, I couldn't just let this be. So as stated, if you are looking for a barber shop to walk-in and get a quality cut. Do NOT come here. Unless you're going to schedule a cut with one of the experienced barbers, DO NOT waste your time and hard earned money. Worst 35 dollars I've spent in a while. Below is what I showed him as a reference, compared to what I actually got.

    This is my go-to spot for a hair cut. Although I sport a clean shaven head, I still drop in here at least once a month to have my beard trimmed and cleaned up. I'm particular about who I trust with my beard. For me, Hugo has the only chair I'll sit in. He took the time to listen to how I preferred my beard to be styled and he hasn't let me down yet. The entire shop is well equipped to serve any of your barbershop needs. But as anyone who's a regular at any barbershop knows, once you get that one barber who understands you...you stay loyal. So I suggest you drop in and take a seat. Hang out and listen to music. Watch some sports on the TVs or join in on whatever conversation is taking place. Give any of the barbers a chance to cut your hair and see who you make your favorite.

    How much for the cut?

    Mon/Tues is the $12 special, but not all cuts apply, depending on the services. Wed-Sun cuts are $15, but again, depending on the customers request, prices can change. I recommend telling the barber what you want, and finding out how much it'll be… Read more

I will say that I didn't see any women here so I'm not sure if they actually do women's haircuts but I'm pretty sure based on their website and their clientele they only do men's haircuts. This is in a very Chinese area of LA County so that's to be expected though.
