Couldn't possibly be happier with our experience here. I brought my son in on a Sunday morning for a spur-of-the-moment cut, made an appointment in person & came back later. Stella explained what she was doing as she was doing it, checked in with my son as she was cutting to make sure it was the style he liked, and was done in moments. It's rare to find someone who's highly competent, a great communicator, and charging 1980s prices, and this place is IT! When I finally cut my hair, Stella's going to be doing it. read more

Update as of 5/15/2021: They are open Mon-Fri 9am-4pm, Sat-Sun 9am-3pm. Jenny (the mother) is there Wed-Sat, while Stella (the daughter) is there Sun-Tues.

Haircuts are now $12, still cash only. read more

DO NOT COME HERE ON THURS & FRI (OR WHEN STELLA IS OFF). I came here early this morning to get my haircut and realized Stella wasnt available so I decided to go with the elder lady (Jenny I believe).. I specifically told her its a simple cut: 0-1 fade on one side and just trim on the other since its a comb-over. Hastily tells me yes yes yes and buzzes away....OMG it was a horrible experience. First there was no fade whatsoever, straight zero. Then I felt sharp bites from her clippers and I even said "Ow!" twice and she told me "its ok." ITS OK??!?! Its already hurting me and sure enough I came home and my gf saw razor burns on my backside. Stella is the one to come to if you need a haircut. They only charge $9 but that other lady should start charging $2. Its super frustrating for a customer because we have to deal with the mistake and wait for our hair to grow out to have it refixed. read more

Rudy's Barber Shop - Barbers Near Me - Diamond Bar, California

The basics: 8 dollar haircut in DB, open six days a week except Sunday. 8am to 6pm, till 5 on Saturday Why i get my hair cut here? While this is a no-frills kind of place, the two ladies who run this joint are friendly and know what they're doing. They not only respect your wallet but also your time, getting you in and out in record time. I'm a buzz cut kind of person, so I truly appreciate the work they do This place is full of locals and regulars who know the ladies here. That kind of loyalty goes to show what kind of operation they got going on here Whether it's by design or not finding this place can be a challenge. But come through to this spot and they'll take care of you good. read more

See all

I've been coming in here for years and I really didn't know that this place was called "Rudy's Barber Shop"!!! LoL!!! Ok, dumness aside, they are great! Jenny, (the thin Korean lady) is really nice. One time I came in about 5 minutes after they closed. I saw her leaving, but when she saw me, she said it was ok and still take me in! I was so grateful because I have a real important meeting to go to the next morning. And she really went out of her way to help me out. Who does that? Even my cousin who owns a shop would never have done that! Anyways, their place is really cozy... Ok it's tiny! But who cares because it is not the place that makes a business great.. It's how you treat your customers. Personalized service, courteous and friendly. read more

Coming here for years, for $8.00/hair cut, can't beat that. The owner here, Jenny, very nice person, she knows how to cut my hair. read more

Messed up my hair but it was alright. At least they are fast. Came here a few years ago the china lady still has an attitude

Best place for haircuts. Period. Fast. Cheap. Correct. Friendly employees Even when there's a lone it goes quick. I'm talking like 5-6 minutes a haircut. Awesome. Support locally owned. read more

The review is for the old lady.  This was my first and LAST time here.  Didn't even get a haircut. As soon as my 7 year old son sat in the chair, my husband tried to explain how he wanted my son's haircut.  The lady was so impatient and rude. She was unwilling to take a few seconds to understand how my son wanted his hair cut and told us to sit down with a very bad attitude.  She suddenly refused service and screamed at us saying she didn't want to cut my son's hair and rushed my son off the chair.  We told her we could not believe this is how she does business, especially with first time customers.  Unbelievable!  The rudest costumer service I have ever experienced.  I'll be taking my business somewhere else and anyone reading this review should also. read more

09/15/2018 The mom, I believe the name is Jenny, was on vacation, only the daughter (Stella?) was here I got here around 13:40, told here I was there for haircut, and she kept taking walked in customers who arrived after me. Serious not coming back to this place again And, if you here for haircut, DONT ASK FOR THE DAUGHTER read more

I've been coming here since I moved to Diamond Bar back in '06. For $8 you can't really ask for more. Maybe I'm just a simple guy but I ask for and receive a simple haircut. Am I asking for super stylish cuts or pampering? No and I don't expect it paying such a low fee. Don't be expecting a SuperCuts experience when you come here. This is a local business run by a very nice Korean lady and her coworkers. Their English may not be the best but if you're clear and concise about what you want, you'll often get what you want. If not, you only spent $8. When's the last time you spent less than $10 for a haircut? Give it a try if you're looking for a simple haircut and want to support a local business. Don't forget to tip ($1 is enough) if you're happy with the cut. read more

Best cheap barber shop in Diamond Bar. Stella always does a phenomenal job. For $9 it's the best haircut you can get. Definitely recommend this place for your haircut needs. read more

Rudy's Barber Shop - Barbers Near Me - Diamond Bar, California

It is such a horrible place. The old lady finish the haircut for 5 minutes. I told her the hair is not even on the top, she said "it is even". I asked again, she turned angry and goes "it is even, what do you want". That was so rude and she acts like an jerk. Horrible. After I paid 10bucks, she goes "never come back again". Well I will not for sure. What a barber read more

Rudy's Barber Shop - They said it is even. - Barbers Near Me - Diamond Bar, California

Pros: $8 for a haircut. You really can't beat it Cons: You're getting a terrible haircut. I came in and asked for a mohawk, which should be fairly easy, right? I came out with an uneven mohawk. I asked to make it more even on my left. She sad it was even. I asked to make it thinner. She said it will look thinner already when I put in gel. I decided to just accept her low-quality haircut, and just fixed it myself after I got home. Bottom line: This place is probably fine for crew cuts or anything really basic, and the price is good. The quality of the cuts is very low, and they don't have gels or hairsprays or anything to style your hair afterwards, though. Would not recommend. read more

Been going here for many years and always great price and service. They just increased there price from $8 to $9 after many years.

Straight shooter. This is a quick no frills barber. With that said, for 9 dollars you cant really complain. Compared to my perfectionist barber that would charge me about 30 dollars. She cut my hair way short than I requested, but hair grows back and for 9 bucks and a quick buzz, I will return!!! read more

I've come here a few times and I've gotten haircuts from both Stella and Jenny. I'm so glad I found this place. It's hard to beat a good, quick $9 haircut. I don't have tons of time to wait in lines or to get a super detailed haircut that takes forever. Cut my hair. Get me in and out so I can continue with my day. This place is perfect. read more

Quick, cheap, military style service. Always in the seat for less than 7 minutes but that works for the type of haircut I desire. If you have realistic expectations for a $9 haircut, you will love this place. read more

This is the place that has the $8 haircut sign out by the street. I've gotten my hair cut here at least 15 times. I actually stopped going though because the 2 ladies don't speak English very well, so it is really difficult to communicate to them how I want my hair cut. I got it cut once by the one who looks a little mannish, and promptly never got it cut by her again, she made it look like a military haircut gone wrong. So when I was going I got it cut by the other one who is there Th, F, & Sat. She did a pretty good job, but then I tried to change the style one time, and she didn't really understand me, so I figure it's just easier to go elsewhere. But the price can't be beat, and if you can speak their language, you'll have an easier time than me. read more

The best barbershop ever ! I go to get a simple haircut and this is the only place that can do it the same every time . Very inexpensive so I tip heavily . They are polite and fast when cutting hair . Inexpensive, polite, and fast , can not beat this place ! read more

Why is this place called "Rudy's Barbershop" when it's always two Asian ladies working here? The good thing about this place is it's super cheap. It's only eight dollars. That's right. I don't need to pay between $12-20 for a haircut, when all I basically need is a low fade. I like the top of my hair messy anyways so a low fade for $8 dollars gets it done. The two Asian ladies working here are super nice. They are really fast too (fastest was like 5 minutes!). Yes, some barbers are perfectionist, so they spend nearly an hour with the haircut. But those places charge nearly twenty bucks or more. I don't even like it most of the time. My hair comes out looking too militaristic, too clean, and too precise. Sometimes, there's perfection in imperfection. Since I like my hair messy on the top with a clean low fade at the sides, a place like this offers just what I want. They never disappoint. This place offers a quick and cheap haircut. If you want more of a natural looking, impressionistic haircut, come to this place. But if you want a clean cut with preciseness, then another place is probably better. read more

I have been going to this shop since it was Rudy's and then he retired. It was sold to Korean barbers, but for the past several years it is owned by two ladies (mother and daughter) who both give great haircuts, though I prefer the mother, Jenny, because she usually gets it exactly as I like it. But the daughter is also great and can hold a good conversation with the customer. It is true that either of the ladies can offer a quick haircut, and from what I've seen all the patrons are satisfied. Perhaps the inexpensive price attracts, but the barbers make it a pleasant place to come to; I've never had a bad haircutting experience in the many years of going there. Cut on, Ladies, cut on!!

For the longest time, I've been getting my haircut at Pro-Cuts in Alhambra, but after moving to Diamond Bar, I decided that it was unreasonable to drive 25 miles to get an $8 haircut... so I needed to find another barber shop to get an $8 haircut. Thanks to Yelp, I discovered Rudy's Barber Shop. I've gotten my last 3 haircuts there and have been very pleased. I've had my hair cut by both of the Korean ladies who work there & noticed them training another gentlemen on my most recent trip there. There's no appointment needed and I've never had to wait more than a few minutes. I recommend Rudy's to anybody else looking for a simple cut at a great price. read more

I walked in and got a 20 minute haircut on a Friday afternoon by a nice lady named Stella. She spoke perfect English, in contradiction to many of the reviews here, and showed care for the customer (me!). I would recommend coming here if you want a simple quick haircut for $8! read more

Hey, I just got my haircut at Rudy's again..Stella took care of me..it's a great place If you need to get in and out quick at a great price, please go there! read more

Stella is cool, I'm a man in my sixties and you sit down, you are out in a flash with a great haircut; she throws in mustache etc. We like Stella (her mother is good as well). read more

Make sure you come when Jenny is there! She will give you a good cut. It may be shorter than you ask for she has a one track mind! I give her a 10 spot and all is good. Don't piss her off! I have seen her go off on people! Good value! read more

I was expecting a better haircut. The lady that did my hair just cut the back and the sides. I read most of the reviews on here saying she's really good. But if you're going to get a complex hair cut like mohawk,comb over, ect. I suggest to find somewhere else. If your just looking for a trim, then this is a place for you. But overall you get what you pay for. read more

I've been going here for many yearsJenny rocks and so does Stella. If you want a simple clean cut and no fancy shop at a great price this is the place Stella likes the yabba yabba and Jenny is more quiet read more

The best place for a quick cut by someone who knows her craft. Her experience shows! Can't give full stars, since phone is disconnected.

The worst I've seen. I took my sons for hair cuts and after she finished their hair is wanted to cry. The cuts were very uneven. She even clipped the hair to a point (it was not rounded like the natural hair line) above one of my sons ears. When i asked her to fix it she attempted to by making that side shorter but then she didn't shorten the other side to match. There was so much hair removed when she cut the pointed notch that the only way it would have been fixed completely is to shave all of the hair to the skin. I will never ever go back. read more
