Does anyone know what happened to Ben? He was the best. Was he caught up in the ICE activity?

I've been going here for maybe 10 plus years. They are fast and efficient. It's a wife and husband combo that own the place. Price is fair and haircut is to my satisfaction. read more

the hair cut was fine, the prices are no longer the best and going up to match the other stylist shops. guessing that rent is higher since the move, but they're in an area of more foot traffic. the value is no longer what it was before they moved out right after they moved to this location. a $16 haircut when i thought it was 12. yeah, not the same value as it used to be. I'll stick with my 12 cut near my apartment. read more

Unfortunately I have to give this one star I've had my haircut here multiple times. I also went right before Covid-19 happened, and I don't think I was that satisfied then. So I walked in with my mask on, with 2 barbers a male and female cutting hair with masks on, with hardly any wait time. I was next and it looked like I was going to get the female barber. with positive thoughts I went and sat down in the chair. Butchered!!! It doesn't feel good to say that but it was the only word to describe the haircut. I had her last time, and today I was hoping her skills have improved. Sadly her skills haven't. I told her exactly what I wanted and she proceeded to cut my hair. I noticed her technique was slightly odd, only because I got my hair cut 3 weeks prior to this one from a slightly out of my budget Barbershop. I was hopping she would just follow what the person before her did and amazingly she just cut my sides before I could even tell her. Then she parted my hair down the middle and started cutting my hair like I had a bowl on top of my head. I was thinking at this time "she knows what she is doing, so I shouldn't say anything.' Next thing I know she is taking my apron off and saying i was done. I was a bit shocked about the results of the haircut. I had to tell her to cut the area under my mask straps. I just accepted that my hair was ruined. I probably won't be coming here again because now I have to wait another 3 months until I get my hair back to how I wanted to originally have it. Just in time for the Fall I guess. I guess it's hats for me this summer. The Male Barber might be good, but I forget if he is good. I just want to warn people that might care about how the hair turns out not to go to this barber shop. They really don't have the skills to cut hair how you want it. I hope they have regulars because I know I am not one of them. read more

The best Barbarshop. Been a customer for over 20years. Prices are great and very reasonable. Ben is fantastic.

Just read some reviews and Fist off they speak English 2nd they are nice and quick and you can't beat the price Ben the owner is awesome He will talk sports or what ever you want to talk about he is just a regular guy trying to make an Honest living for his family I found my go to spot I will be a life long customer read more

Asian owner gave me a cut and he used the mirror to show me the back of my head. I asked if he could trim some more off the top because it was still a little long. He was plowing passive aggressive and ended up chopping off a good amount of my hair. Basically buzzed it. Avoid this place. Their customer service is below average and their hair cuts are also inferior to most places. read more

Ocean View Barbra is the Best! My son has been going there since he was 2 yrs old ... Austin is 12 yrs old now. Both my husband and son get their haircut here and the service is great, the cut is always on point and the price is right. So glad we have a barber that we can always count on to offer a fresh clean cut every time. read more

This place is amazing A+ quality and value. I've been coming here for years and they always do me solid. Recommended for sure. read more

Simple yet awesome barbershop ran by a couple. They do solid work for about $10 (fade). They recently also moved to a beautiful new location at Beach/Heil next to 7/11. If your looking for quality cut that won't put a dent in your wallet, make sure to check them out. read more

The most important review of this place, so read it because I think I know where a majority of the bad reviews are coming from. First off, been coming here since they were at their old location. Mega affordable and walk ins welcomed. Secondly and most importantly, this is a mom and pop shop. So there are only the 2 barbers (husband and wife). Everybody always seems to wait for the husband, but I feel like the wife cuts my hair just as good, if not better. Now, on some busier occasions, there is a 3rd lady. I don't know if she's a sister or relative or something. AVOID HER AT ALL COSTS. If it's your turn and she waves you over, tell her your waiting for any of the other 2. She's given me the worst 3 cuts of life, and I keep it pretty simple, nothing fancy or "new." From the 2nd time she cut my hair to the last time, about 1.5 years had passed, so I thought for sure she had improved. Nope. Fool me 3 times shame on me. read more

I've been going to this barber for the past four years, from when they were located at Edinger/Newland and following them to their new location. I have a relatively easy head of hair and by now he can probably cut it with his eyes closed (not recommended though!). Including goatee and eyebrow trim, I'm in and out (depending on wait time) in less than 20 minutes. Costs around $8-$10, I always flip him a $20. Can't beat that! It would take a lot to get me to go somewhere else. If you're looking for salon treatment or some custom cut, maybe you should consider you get what you pay for...but for my needs, this place is perfect. read more

Been coming to this barber since they were on Edinger. They raised the price from $8 to $9, but it is still more than fair. Thanks read more

They don't speak English and if you say you don't like it and want to change they will yell at you and tell you they are right you are wrong. So sad Bad customer service. read more

Rushed home from the office yesterday to try and get a hair cut, only to find out that my regular barber closed 15 minutes before I got there. Dagnabbit! I remembered seeing CMK open up while cruising the hood the other day so I decided to give it a whirl. They've been open only for a month now so they're pretty brand spankin' new. Pale yellow walls, lots of open floor space (perhaps too much open floor space), and 4 chairs sitting on one side of the room. You could probably fit 12 chairs in that room easy. Sat down with Barber Ben, and he hooked up a clean fade. He took his time and made sure there weren't any straggler hairs left behind. Nice! Pricing is also lean and mean. $6 for a men's haircut, $7 for anything involving a fade, and $8 for anything involving a mohawk. I thought about the mohawk option, but figured work wouldn't appreciate it much. =P read more

Ocean View Barber - Barbers Near Me - Huntington Beach, California

See all

Be careful at this place I asked for a trim told the woman there I would like the top cut to 1 inch and the sides at 1/2 inch she repeated what I had asked for the she began to cut my hair. Not only did I confirm my request but showed her with my hands the length I would like. First pass I had a reverse Mohawk she didn't trim it to 1 inch instead she shaved it off. After I asked her what she is doing the gentleman in the shop simply said there was a misunderstanding and there would be no charge for the cut. I had no intention to pay anything at this time still now I am bald and have no hair. What good is it say there is no charge after she shaved it off. If you like your hair and want to keep some. Might want to think twice before stopping here. Run far far far away. Why won't yelp allow me to give this place a zero star they deserve it. read more

Ocean View Barber - This was their understanding of 1 inch on the top 1/2 inch on the side. - Barbers Near Me - Huntington Beach, California

This barber shop rules. First of all, it's cheap. $7 for a man's haircut. It's even cheaper if you're some really old dude. Secondly, the man and lady who own this place do a great job. You know how they offer you the mirror to check their work? Forget it - you don't need that here. These people are professionals. Just stand up, pay, and walk out looking like a million bucks. Third, they don't talk too much. Everywhere else, the barbers pretend they give a crap about your life, your job, and your kids. They don't. So you're stuck in an insincere conversation babbling about your kids soccer skills to some dude who couldn't care less. Not here, baby! These people do their jobs, they do them well, and they don't blow smoke up your ass by droning on about the minutiae of your life. I've been coming here for years, and I've tried the other barbers in the area. Those other barber shops are overpriced and annoying. This place is awesome. Just remember, they're closed on Mondays. If you come on a Monday you will not get a haircut here. Then you'll end up going to another shop, talking about your stupid kids, the weather, and your job...and you'll walk out $12 poorer looking like you got attacked by a weed whacker. Don't do it, man. read more

Thank God for Vietnamese barbers, otherwise we'd all be paying $25 to trim dead cells. A series of Q&As: Q: How much is a typical men's haircut? A: $7 Q: Do you have examples posted up on the wall? A: Yes, in fact there is one called "Hair Today" that must be from the 80's, featuring the fade, flat top, child's trim, Mohawk, and 4 fades. Q: Do you clean up after each person? A: No way, we're all wearing shoes anyway, right? Well, how about we clean off the chair for you? Q: What is the atmosphere like? Is there music? A: Hell no, we don't need distractions. It is so quiet, you just hear the buzzing of the electric razors. In fact, most people whisper here. Q: Am I going back? Is this my kind of place? A: YES! read more

Let me set the scene - I live about 25 miles from my office and my regular barbershop is only open till 5pm m-f and weekends I am usually on the go and it is hard for me to stop by so I go about a month before I can't handle my hair anymore. I was looking for a barber shop near my office in Huntington Beach and to my amaze, there was one with in a mile of my office. I read all of the reviews as I usually try to do and thought I would give it a try. First impression of the barber shop was it was clean and there was little to no wait, but then again it was Friday at 1pm so I timed it right. I meet CHRISTINE and she was very energetic and also welcoming, I immediately sat down and she had asked me how I would like to have my hair cut, and I explained it to a "T" and she dialed me in to the EXACT way that I like my hair cut and even when she was done, she looked at me again and saw something that she wanted to clean up, and I was truly grateful. She DIALED in my hair just the way I liked it and offered to put Gel in my hair and it looked great. For a $7.00 hair cut, I thought to myself - oh well it would grow back if I didn't like it, but I was TRULY HAPPY with my hair and I was in and out of there in 15-20 minutes flat and I even had enough time to grab something to eat before going back to my office. If I can help just one person with this review, I would be greatly happy for spreading the word that CMK Barber Shop is the BEST in TOWN!!! Hands down!! The BONUS was, they even ACCEPTED CREDIT CARDS, which is almost unheard of now a days in a barber shop!! read more

I've never actually gotten a haircut here before, but I have accompanied the boyfriend to get his haircut. We called on a Saturday morning to try to make an appointment for later in the day but the guy said that they do not make appointments. The boyfriend and I decided to just head over after lunch and hopefully the wait wouldn't be too long since the man had told us they were busy on Saturdays. When we went, I was surprised because the barber shop was actually very roomy and spacious but they only had two people working. The two barbers were busy working on other people. There was a line and four other people were waiting for their haircuts before my boyfriend. A few more people came in while we were waiting. However, I was pretty impressed at the speed the two barbers worked at. They were finished with each customer in about 10-20 minutes depending on the person's hair. The barbers didn't talk too much to anyone but they're busy cutting everyone's hair quickly. The line of people moved by very fast. Then it was the boyfriend's turn and his haircut was finished in like fifteen minutes. It was fast and precise and looked good! I definitely recommend this for guys to get their haircut, it's super affordable for only $7! Heyyyy when the boyfriend saves money, it means he has more to spend on his girlfriend!!! :D read more

My husband come hair cut .. very nice and look handsome .. I love it !! Owner very nice and friendly ! Next time I will come again ..

Been recently coming here to get haircuts and all of the reviews below are accurate. The price is cheap and the job is pretty good. The one issue is that the communication isn't that great. I've been going to the lady and she doesn't speak the best English. That being said, she is still a decent barber and definitely worth a try, especially at $7. Hopefully I get the guy next time to get an appropriate gauge. As with all barber shops, try to avoid the weekends. read more

He will do a terrible job of cutting your hair if there are lots of other customers in queue. Cuts quick and careless according to some generic template, disregarding instructions and reference images. read more

Ive been coming here for a few months and love it. You cant beat the price and is so much better than those chain places! Its a simple place, there is no line, no making appointments, no fuss. They do a perfect job on my hair every time. read more

Wow. Really... all you hear is the buzzing of razors. The gentlemen there gave my boyfriend a great haircut. It was fast and precise and EXTREMELY affordable at $10 (tip included). THANK YOU! We'll be returning more often. read more

I was looking for a barber close to where I now live. My stylist moved awayI So I needed to find some else. I.have always been very particular and regret when I have to find a new barber/stylist. I checked the reviews and found this shop. I was very anxious. All I can say is: Awesome. He was quick. He cut my hair the the way I asked. And a whole lot less cost then I had been paying. I will be back. read more

Gotta give some love to these two. $6 haircut for guys?! Fagettabaddit! I have been going to them for the past year since I moved into the neighborhood. They always do a great job, listen to requests, and they have the hairstyle charts on the walls so you can just point and say "like that" if you want. Their shop is always clean and it's huge! I hope they get more stylists and business in there so they are very successful. Apparently they do ladies haircuts too, but I've never seen a woman in there so I can't speak on that. They do all the dude styles though for just a little more. read more

My poor dad had a terrible experience here, so here I am to avenge him. We live right by this shop and he decided to try it out after seeing great Yelp reviews and a diverse group of customers. He tipped but he didn't realize how bad it was until he was driving home and felt his hair. When he came home, he took a closer look and I've never seen him so mad about a haircut, and he said it was the worst he's ever had. The sides were not blended well, and the top of his head was uneven. He says that she also didn't seem to know how to hold the clippers because she kept hitting his head as she cut. Also, the front line was not straight. I wish I had thought to take a photo but he had gone straight to his original barber not long after showing me his cut because it was so bad that he couldn't wait another day. That barber said, "did she really cut your hair like that?" To give some context, my dad is black. Maybe they just don't know how to cut black hair? read more

Do not come to this place. Worst haircut I've ever received. I showed the barber what I wanted with my haircut. Showed the barber a picture of what i wanted. All she focused on were the sides and now I have a very lopsided cut. One side is shaved all the way to the top, the other side is patchy and wavy. I am considering shaving my whole head because of this. read more

I take my 6 YO here for a cut. Ben is AWESOME! When he's all finished, I'm ALWAYS happy with the style. I never have any issues of telling him to fix this or fix that. My husband also gets his cut with Ben. Extremely satisfied! read more

Came in here for the first time a few months ago because I was in the area and was in a hurry and to be honest I was kind of skeptical about this place. No reason other than the fact that it's hard to trust someone or some place new. I took a chance with this place and I haven't looked back since! The people here really know how to cut hair. I usually only ask for a simple cut: a 1.5 on the sides and a short trim on the top. Not that hard right? You'd be surprised at how many people I've gone to that have messed that up. They get it here just right. And this is the reason why I keep coming back. Someone messed up my brother's cut though. He had a buzz cut with a line up. It was kind of crooked when they did it. I guess you can't come here for something like that. This place would be a 5 star otherwise. read more

I came in here for a cut for the first time. I was nearby and I saw it had some good reviews. So I took a chance and I am sure glad I did. They took their time and left my hair clean cut and relaxed and all for a great price. I'll be going back again for another cut. The hairdresser I had my cut with was very polite and easy to talk to. You definitely feel at home even if it's your first time. read more

The owner/barber is very rude and bad tempered. I was shooting my bf ONLY, being careful not to include the barber into the photo, the owner/barber who was cutting another guy's hair told me not to because he didn't like the fact that some people took photo and uploaded to social media. I explained to him I'm not gonna do that, I just got a new camera so I want to shoot my bf to practice, his barber was not in the photos. He went quiet and I thought he was okay with it so I continued. Suddenly he started yelling at me with I'm not even sure he was speaking English. It was so embarrassing! And let's face it, what's wrong with the people who took photos and uploaded to social media? Just like on Yelp, while you show up in here to attract business, we have the right to tell the experience! read more

We have two boys ages 2 and 5. This place was able to the handle the two wiggle worms with ease. Their cuts came out great, the kids were happy and so were our pocketbooks. Usually we spend over $40 for both of their cuts, we were out of CMK Barber for half the price. If your looking for a clean simple cut this is the place to go. read more

This place is great! i been going here for my haircuts for almost 2 years now, both owner/worker are great, they can do clean line ups to fohawks! good price and service, make sure you give them the tip they deserve, 5 stars! read more

I've been coming here for three years. I always get my hair cut by the husband. I've never had my hair cut by the wife or the other guy, so I don't know if they're good or bad. My haircut looks fine. I've never really like the way my hair looks after a haircut (here or elsewhere) so to me, it's all the same. But what I love about this place is: 1. awesome price ($10 for women) 2. they remember me and know exactly how I want my haircut without being reminded 3. clean and sanitary 4. wait time isn't too bad 5. they don't sound annoyed when you tell them to fix something (i.e. shorter) 6. they always check with you and show you VISUALLY how short you want your hair cut 7. they're not chatty. (I hate chatty bs at regular salons) I also leave a big tip because I want them to stay in business. Plus, I love supporting mom and pop shops. They have twin girls that sometimes hang out at the shop. read more

I been going here for 6 years. They do a great job on your hair. They get it down to the point you don't have to say what you want. They just know how to do it. It's almost perfect everytime and the same everytime. I'm a very picky person when it comes to who is touching my hair. I would recommend this place to everyone. The pricing is the best around...plus they do quality cuts. read more

I love coming to this place. After having a terrible experience with another place of using dirty and un sanitized tools leading to an infection on my scalp, I decided to give these guys a shot. The asian woman that works there knows exactly how I like my hair to be cut and I only need to be brief in my descriptions. She always gets to work right away. I have been here for the past 5 haircuts this year and will continue to do so. Great service! read more

I know not to expect too much from a $6 haircut, but this was just awful. I took a chance based on the other good reviews here, but my haircut was done horribly. I asked the lady who gave it to me to fix it twice, and still, i had stray hairs all over the place and it is completely uneven. I would personally never recommend this place to anybody. read more
