Menlo Park Barber Shop

An unfortunately terrible experience with one of the barbers, who was very rude and uptight from the moment I said hello. My first time at this shop was great, which is why I returned - but this second one was just awful. I was trying to explain what I wanted but he kept rushing me to sit down and let him begin. Mind you, I set an appointment - this was not a walk-in. I have experienced such bully tactics before, where they barely do the job and ask for an unreasonable amount (in my case, $60 for a terrible fade). On top of that, an adjacent barber made perverted jokes throughout the session, which was quite discomforting. I do not recommend this place, as there seem to be some managerial issues (and other elephants in the room) that fuel such tension among the barbers...

Beyond Outstanding in every imaginable way! I’ve been coming to Sam Valero’s barber shop ever since he opened. Prior to his shop he was at doing superior hair styling at the “Golden Shears” also in Menlo Park. I started going there in 1974 and have never let anyone else style my hair. All of the barbers in the Menlo Park Barber Shop are real guys with wonderful personalities. For me they are like brothers and we laugh and joke and discuss life events and our own families. A true wonderful fun time. Most sincerely... Harry

My boy Vince has been fading me up real nice for about seven years now. I followed him when he left his old spot and I have to say he makes me feel younger and younger and my wife loves my clean looks. His fade skills are off the chain he can do a bald fade, a mid fade, a taper fade, you name it. He’s got it. The Barber has skills like no other. I really have appreciated getting to know him all these years, he travels all over the place and we love talking about those stories, hearing about his stakes and his family has been really amazing. If you want fresh clean, you know where to go.

Great barbers and great atmosphere. I've had a few different barbers but recently Mitch has been my guy. Always extremely happy with my cut. It's pricier than your Great Clips, but you're guaranteed a fresh, super clean cut. That's totally worth it for me.

Walked in for a clean up around the sides of my head. It took about 25 minutes and I was charged 60 dollars. When I got to work, a friend pointed out my side burns were different lengths. I would not come back here.
