Sound Cuts is a great little barber shop located near the back side of Flower Child restaurant. I just got my first cut from Kody. I'm fairly particular when it comes to haircuts, but he listened intently and took the time to ask questions before jumping in. He did a great job and delivered on everything I asked. After a few months of bouncing around to different barbers, I feel like I've finally found my new regular shop and barber. Thanks Kody! read more

Came for my first haircut and it was good. Booked my second cut a month out. Day of my appointment comes and I walk in to find out my barber no longer works there. No call from Sound Cuts prior to this, no nothing. No offer to schedule me with another barber just a "sorry dude you should contact them yourself" Edit: Business owner noted that "We've been managing all of his clients as they come in as well as the rest of our barbers' existing clients"... no you didn't. I was told "sorry, can't help you, you need to call Mario". read more

Danny helped me! I had long, wavy locks. Got sick of taking care of them, and wanted to be more employable, but was pretty anxious about the cut, because i thought my hair looked good. I gave Danny control, and didn't communicate as much as i should have before the cut. He made me look incredible, I was fortunate to put it in his hands. Absolutely killer fade/taper, just enough length on top -- and the whole time, I was questioning him. Super professional, knows what looks good on your head, and is good at calmly helping explain it. Danny, if you see this, sorry again for my doubt! read more

Kody is great! He does the best job cutting my toddlers hair. He is patient and makes my toddler feel safe and comfortable. We followed him from his old shop to this one because he is our favorite barber! read more

The barbers in the Del Mar area. You have a studio full of very skilled barbers that can fade with the best then bust out a straight razor and shave you up. True artists of the craft and worth the money and wait. read more

Went a couple weeks ago for a haircut. Absolutely no covid protocols. All maskless and no social distancing. My neck was not done properly as it is burning and scratched. Not a good experience. read more

I hadn't cut my hair in almost a year and decided it was enough - it was time to get a haircut. I looked up reviews on Google and found Sound Cuts with everyone raving about Mario. I went in their looking like Harry from Harry and the Hendersons and left looking like Christian Bale. I'm not exaggerating when I say that he gave me the best haircut I've ever had - Mario is a professional. He's an awesome guy to talk to as well. As I left, i was booking my next appointment with Mario immediately. read more

The best haircut in Del Mar hands down ! Walked in Saturday and Jake was able to take me right away ! Great shop vibes as well. I'll definitely be back for my next cut read more

Sound Cuts is a no bullshit shop. Relaxed atmosphere with vinyls playing, very chill. The waiting area has those big comfy black leather couches that your ass sinks into. I can't recommend Adrian and his fades enough. He's like the Kanye West of barbers. Definitely worth a visit. read more

Sllllllaaayyyyy!!!! I cut all of my locs off and then realized immediately I would need to see someone to even my hair out and make me look fresh. I came into the shop, sunglasses and hat on because my hair looked so crazy. Mario is king and calmed my nerves and made my hair look AMAZING! He evened it out, pointed my sideburns and rounded out the back. Incredibly nice and funny guy and I'll be telling my husband this is the only place to go to get your hair cut. Officially ready to rock my twa. Thank you, Mario, for making me not look like I'm on bath salts anymore. New hair, who dis?? read more

Mario and Brandon run a clean friendly shop with great vibes. I have been coming to Mario for the last year. I drive 45 minutes to be seen by Mario because of his attention to detail and the customer service provided. I have not had a meeting in the last year without first seeing Mario! Best shop in San Diego County!! read more

Sound Cuts is the place where you want to get your hair cut so you can look your sharpest before your special occasion whether it be a wedding, a birthday, or a night out trying to look for that special someone to cuddle with at night. They have excellent customer service and offer a great selection of music, drinks, apparel, and hair products to keep you comfortable and looking great till the next time you come in. They can cut children's hair as well, so I will be bringing my 3 year old son to Sound Cuts for his next cut. Mario and Brandon are excellent barbers with excellent taste and passion to make sure you look your best. Highly recommend going to Sound Cuts! read more

Awesome service and excellent precision and hair cut for my 12 year old son who will only go to hipster barber shops now. I'm so glad Del Mar has this place. The staff is so "cool and hip", friendly and laid back. They take their time and the price is reasonable. Mario and Brendan are the best! read more

Sound Cuts - Barbers Near Me - Del Mar, California

Travel from Escondido to have my haircuts done exclusively at Sound Cuts. No matter what style you're looking for, Brandon and Mario are both highly skilled barbers that will get the cut done. I personally always allow Mario to "freestyle" my haircuts and have never been disappointed. Both are from the local area making them easy to relate with and talk to. The overall aesthetics of the shop sets up a great atmosphere to be apart of. It's a space you want to hangout in. Hands down the best barbershop in San Diego and would recommend them to anyone. Be social, support locals! read more

I have had my hair cut here twice. I love the location "Flower Hill" and the quality of hair cut is very high end. The guys that cut hair are very cool and make getting a hair cut a fun time. My wife told me last week she thought i was looking extra good. She then stopped for a second and asked if i just got a hair cut lol .... women :-) If you have a chance definitely worth getting your hair cut here. I also like this place because it is next to whole foods to it makes it easy to get some food when i'm done read more

Some of the best barbers in all of California!! Love the new space they have set up and are always flexible and willing to get you your dream appointment! I go to my man Mario who has been hooking it up for the past year and I don't see me going anywhere else for the best cut! Excited to see how Mario and Brandon continue to grow and expand their shop! Definitely recommend checking this place out if you haven't yet read more

The reviews speak for themselves, this really is a 5 star barber shop. I've been getting my hair cut by Mario for over a year now, started at CC barbershop in Esco and I don't mind driving 30 minutes just to have him freshen me up now. Location is awesome, Mario and Brandon just as awesome. Highly recommend these guys. read more

Mario is one of best barbers in north county. A true professional who shows passion with his work. He gives you his full attention and takes pride on what he does. He's able to cut any style your looking for and gives suggestions on how to achieve what ever look you're going for. I drive 30-45 minutes just to get my haircut by him. That alone should tell you how talented Mario is. read more

The team at sound cuts is legit! Great service and excellent location. Rando is my personal barber and he does everything he can to make sure to get your haircut right. He truly cares and takes his time making sure you are happy with the cut and overall style. Very friendly and easy to talk to. Highly recommend! read more

Mario is cool & knows what's he's doing so I would ONLY recommend booking with him. The downside is the owner Brandon also cuts but won't have the time for you. The last couple of times I've been there, his chair was empty & asked him if he could cut my hair & he said he was booked when clearly he was just on his computer. I asked how to book with him & he said he's not taking new clients and hasn't taken a new client in 2 years & mentioned he only works 30 hrs & spends the rest with business development. I'm sure if I was a celebrity or had a bunch of followers he would find time. I guess I wasn't worth his time. I was taken back by this comments & actions. Super arrogant & rude. Is this a barbershop or not? read more

Thank you Rando for another first class experience; kind, considerate, and highly skilled. I strongly recommend Sound Cuts. Give em a try, you won't be disappointed. read more

Brandon Hunter (owner) is the best barber I know. I typically spend $50 at a salon because I don't trust most people. Brandon gets me looking and feeling great for much less $. Highly recommend. read more

We were looking for a new spot for my son as we have a hard time finding someone who knows how to cut curly hair. We scheduled an appointment with Brandon and were able to get in the next day. Brandon is very friendly and made my son feel very comfortable. He took his time to understand what it was my son was looking for and even gave suggestions as well. He did a great job and my son is very happy with his cut but when I received the bill I was shocked, $65 to use only clippers to trim up the sides and shape his hair is extreme. If there was more to his haircut I could possibly understand but there wasn't. That costs more than it does to cut my hair so I was definitely taken aback by that. Do I think his haircut was worth $65? Absolutely not. So the cost is definitely disappointing as we've never paid more than $50. I can't say we won't go back because my son did get what he wanted, and Brandon is a great guy, but I guess I should have checked the price first. Only reason for 4 stars is the price. read more

Randolf is such an amazing barber! He was able to take my fella's loose description of what he was envisioning and one photo for reference and create an awesome cut! He is so careful and pays attention to every detail. The vibe at the shop is laid back and welcoming. I wish I could give more stars. Thank you Randolf! read more

Jake, Thanks for squeezing me in on a Saturday. Love the cut! Great attention to detail. I'll definitely be back! read more

Love their haircuts! They were able to fix me up after my old barber cut my hair, hungover. Friendly staff that's chill. I will definitely be back! The price is a little steep, but it's worth it! read more

After getting my hair cut for the first time by owner/operator Brandon 18 months ago, I knew I'd found my guy. Gone are the days of suffering through small talk with a random barber or stylist every time I visit a chain, because I'm now getting my hair cut by a professional who's dependable and always at the shop. Top quality cuts, high level vibes, and a great selection of product are exactly what you'll find at Sound Cuts. read more

I walked in with my 2 sons (8 and 13) for fades. The guys here couldn't have been nicer. Very professional and hip. Super sweet to me (the mom) and I could tell all the other customers were regulars. Thanks Randolph and Javier! As soon as we left, my 13 year old said "wow- that was so cool". I mean...it was just a haircut. But still...a great experience. read more

This is my go to spot. The shop is artfully designed giving it a sophisticatedly fresh vibe. The location is also very prime. Located right off the I-5 in Del Mar. Booking your appointment is also very easy! Highly recommended. read more

I've got nothing but praise for Brandon and Mario! The two do amazing work. I went to a competing barber shop in the area and had a terrible experience but Brandon took care of me and fixed it. Definitely going to be a regular at this place! If you're in the area and looking for people who know what they're doing and will take care of you, look no further. Definitely recommend this place. read more

Best haircuts out there! I have been going to Mario for over a year now and I commute from downtown San Diego to the Sound Cuts, aka the best Barbershop ever. Every friend that I recommend to Mario, becomes a regular! After the great service every time, I can't imagine going elsewhere for a haircut! read more

Really happy with my haircut. The shop is cool - good location and the guys are having a fun time.

This place is rad. After trusting other Yelp reviews and friends on Instagram, I decided to give Sound Cuts a try. Once I walked in, I knew I was in the right place. The vibe is exactly what you want from today's barber, and of course, most importantly, Brandon and Mario are skilled in their craft. Mario cut my hair and did an excellent job; he paid a lot of attention to detail before finishing. Both guys are super friendly and engaging; I'm stoked to have them in Del Mar. I'll definitely be back. read more
