Fantastic experience: Amazing place to go in Oshawa for a haircut. Mike did a fantastic job and was incredibly nice to my son during his haircut. Overall great experience and will definitely only be going to Johnny Cuts for all my future haircuts
Fantastic experience: Very friendly guy!! Johnny cuts thanks for the parking and fresh cut!!!
Fantastic experience: Amazing experience. Was going to my last barber for 20 years, and just recently moved to the area. Made an appointment with Madyson, and when I got there I was told she was running behind. Mike was extremely apologetic and offered to take me right away. He did an awesome job, checked to make sure I was happy with the first result - asked him to take it down a bit more, which he happily did. Gave me advice and product recommendations for dry scalp, which I will be trying ASAP. Madyson came over when she was done her previous client and apologized. Will be going back FOR SURE. Thanks again, Mike!!
Fantastic experience: Today my husband and I brought our 2.5 yr old son in for his very first haircut. My husband gets his hair cut by Mike and always has a great experience, but I was still a little nervous until we walked in and were greeted so warmly by the staff and even the clients. Mike did such an awesome job with our son’s curly hair!! He was patient, gentle, and made all of us feel super comfortable. Even with our son constantly moving, Mike was quick, safe, and skilled with the scissors. He gave suggestions along the way, checked in to make sure we liked everything, and even helped save some pieces of hair for us to keep. We’re so happy with how it turned out and will definitely be back. Thanks Mike!!
Fantastic experience: Returned for a second cut with Mike. Great service at Johnny cuts. Conversation, cut and shave are all top notch. I would recommend Johnny’s to others.
Fantastic experience: Great vibes and atmosphere. Everyone was warm and inviting! Very happy!
Fantastic experience: Was my first time there and was greeted by friendly staff then was helped by Mike. I wasn't sure exactly what I wanted but told him the idea and Mike made it happen. The beard turned out amazing. Head shave was super smooth, and the whole overall experience was incredible with all the hot towels and steamers. Atmosphere was warm, welcoming and friendly. Will be going back, highly recommend.

Negative experience: Got a haircut here last year and instead of doing any actual styling or my requested haircut they gave me some Guy Gardner looking bowlcut What an actual waste of $100

Fantastic experience: Brought my disabled son in for a hair cut, our first time there, and couldn't be more happy with Mike N! My son's needs were met and accommodated. Mike was so patient and talked to my son about what he was doing and trying not do, to help my son relax and process what was going on around him. We will definitely be back. ❤️ Thank you again so much Mike N!
Fantastic experience: Wonderful barber shop vibes and cool staff. Ask for Mitch, he's solid!
Fantastic experience: Best barbershop Always provides excellent service, easy access to book your appointments online.
Fantastic experience: I've been struggling to find a barber I trust for a bit after some rough cuts at other places. Took the chance here the other day and got a cut from Mike and he delivered exactly what I wanted. This will be my go-to place from now onward
Fantastic experience: This place is great. I go here lots and every time it is a great and consistent cut. Would recommend!
Fantastic experience: Pattie cut my 3 year olds hair today and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She gave him a fantastic cut and was very patient with him since he obviously still moves and fidgets at his age. She also fixed a hair cut I had done on him at another place months ago for me and it was a great experience then as well. Will never go anywhere else. Love this barber shop!
Fantastic experience: Great service, friendly staff, nice clean well kept shop and good pricing. Highly recommend. Haircut by pattie, she did an amazing job!
Fantastic experience: Great service and atmosphere. Free parking was very convenient. Will definitely come back here. Ask for Mady, she’s awesome.
Fantastic experience: Been seeing Maddie for the past few months and she does a great job.
Fantastic experience: The place has a 4.9 star review for a reason. Owner and staff were fantastic. Got both my son and I in on short notice on a busy day. Two happy guys with great cuts! Would highly recommend!
Fantastic experience: Madyson was amazing. Asked, listened,executed. Great Barber. She’s my new Go To Highly Recommend!!!
Fantastic experience: Mady gave me a great cut! Awesome fading skills on the back and very relaxing! Go see her at Johnny Cuts or any of the other awesome staff there!
Fantastic experience: Nice shop. Loved the atmosphere. All staff were very kind. I overhead a few conversations between staff and customers and it seemed like they were all very involved with each other, which is nice. There seems to be actual relationships there which I like. I don't usually like the immediate outcome of most hair cuts, but Mitch did a great job. I loved it right away and got several compliments, which I usually never get. They all just seem like good people and that's really the best thing you can ask for in a business. I will be going back and recommending to others as well. Been back many times, have had several barbers, including Patty and Jhony. Everyone does a great job and everyone is very friendly.
Fantastic experience: This is the best barber shop in the GTA. Johnny and the other barbers are all top notch!
Fantastic experience: Always feel like a million bucks after my Haircuts. Great atmosphere and staff. Been going here for years now and drive from just outside Peterborough just to get my hair cut here. When you find a place you really like you stick with it.
Fantastic experience: Had Mitch line me up for the first time ! Was my first beard trim done and my experience was amazing! Attention to detail and going above and beyond to make sure you’re leaving happy ! Staff was welcoming and the hospitality was unmatched. Will be my go to place now . Thanks again Mitch and Johnny cuts ! 5 stars!
Negative experience: Asked for a textured fringe and had my hair cut into a triangle shape at the front and left the entire top as long as the front weighing everything down
Fantastic experience: Patty is an outstanding master; I’m quite picky, but the quality of her work exceeded my expectations!
Fantastic experience: Good experience. Nice atmosphere. Will retun
Positive experience: Came for a cut for my wedding this upcoming weekend. Pretty sloppy on the sides, with hair at all kinds of different lengths. Have to stop somewhere else to clean up. Wasn't asked if I was happy with it or anything at the end of the cut, just sort of there you go. Not terrible, but not what I was hoping for.
Fantastic experience: Great customer service followed by great hair cutting. Super welcoming staff and vibes in the shop are unreal. Great for kids. Highly recommend and will be using their services again.
Fantastic experience: Best barbershop in Durham region without a doubt. Amazing atmosphere, great customer service and very talents barbers/hairstylists!!! Check them out
Fantastic experience: If you are looking for barber shop that will exceed your expectations with its welcoming environment, quality cuts, barber personality, and standard of excellence, you need to book your appointment at Johnny Cuts today!
Fantastic experience: I had a haircut from Mr Johnny. First word that's comes to mind is Awesome! He is an artist, diligent and meticulous in his job . Best ever haircut since 2022. What's more a complementary beard trimming! Many thanks to you Johnny!
Fantastic experience: Best barbershop you’ll ever sit in. I will never go anywhere else. Johny and his staff make you feel welcome as soon as you walk in the door. Johny is hands-down, the best barber in the GTA.
Fantastic experience: The vibe and atmosphere of this shop is great! Johnny is the best, for a cut and/or just to have a conversation. Kayla is great too, if you have any questions about the shop, she's got all the answers! 10 stars if I could give it that many.
Fantastic experience: Incredible hospitality and skills. Best barbershop in Oshawa and well worth your money.
Fantastic experience: I have been going to Johnny Cuts for years. I go back because I appreciate the warm greeting I receive from Kayla and the amazing service I get from Johnny. Without a doubt, this is Oshawa's best barber shop. If you haven't tried it, you don't know what you are missing!
Fantastic experience: I have been cutting my hair with Aaron for last 2 years. He is fantastic every time, great attention to detail and fun to chat with. I visited last Tuesday Feb 20th for a hair cut; the lady in the reception welcomed and offered coffee. I was going to take it from the pot, however she went and made a fresh cappuccino and served to me in a cup and saucer. She was really exceptional and went above and beyond. I can’t recall receiving such a warm reception in any business or stores. The least I could do was appreciate her and wash the cup I drank from. Highly recommend
Fantastic experience: Johnny did a great job on my textured fringe. Was my first time here and was great talking to him will definitely be a regular from here on out!!
Fantastic experience: Johnny is the man! It’s really a whole experience. I started doing the full cut and shave, and they have this steam machine they use before the shave, it’s unreal lol.
Fantastic experience: I had a very pleasant experience at Johnny Cuts. I'd never been to a barber before as I'm a basic dude who gets a basic cut every few months. Safe to say I will be back to see Pattie! Johnny the owner was also very nice and made you feel at home. Complimentary coffee or espresso is offered upon arrival. Appointments are made online and I didnt wait at all for my scheduled time. The place has got a great vibe with very friendly and (seemingly) skilled employees. Will be back from now on! Edit: just got my hair cut by Johnny and its the best cut I've ever had hands down. Really great guy and awesome atmosphere!
Fantastic experience: This place is not just any barbershop it’s a full premium experience. Highly recommend.
Fantastic experience: Best barber shop in town and the staff are great people. Always a great experience , go in and see Johnny & his team !
Fantastic experience: Took my oldest son here for first time. He was soo happy with his hair! Mitch was great and my son left so happy with everything. Rest of staff were wonderful as well. My youngest son said that this place was decked out and wanted a cut too! Lol. We will be back thanks so much. Going to take the rest of family here now.
Fantastic experience: Had my first experience here tonight. First off Aaron was an absolute master of his craft and gave the best beard trim and shape I’ve ever had. He was friendly, professional and explained everything every step of the way. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Everyone was very friendly and it had a very inviting atmosphere. The shop was set up nicely and had a nice variety of product to buy if you chose to but I wasn’t once pushed to buy their product. When the time comes I wouldn’t entertain going anywhere else. This is my shop from now on.
Fantastic experience: Great shop. Cool decor, fun atmosphere, and skilled barbers. My son raves about Aaron. And the espresso while waiting was the cherry on top!
Fantastic experience: Took our 3 year old for a haircut after my husband had a positive experience getting his beard trimmed and head shaved. Great experience start to finish. Easy to book online, friendly staff. Shop has awesome vibe with lots of high quality hair/beard products for purchase. Mitch was great with my son- he can have sensory problems or be extremely shy but rocked the haircut thanks to Mitch’s calm cool demeanour (getting to sit on a skateboard defiantly helped). Many families with teens- Johnny and staff greeted each client like a long lost friend. Friendly, warm, clean and cool. Definitely will be back, understandable why this shop has reputation as Durham Regions #1 barber shop.
Fantastic experience: Johnny has been carrying our custom soaps in his shop for awhile now. I’m so grateful for his support and love for our small business. I can’t thank you enough! - Aide ❤️
Fantastic experience: Mitch did a great job on my hair today. Wasn't sure what to do with it anymore, and he made some suggestions that I would not have considered. Loving my cut and the side part he suggested. Never considered a side part, and never considered the side he recommended but he was 100% correct on the side part and the side of the part. My girlfriend was liking the side part as well so it's a home run!
Fantastic experience: Friendly staff, great atmosphere, have a coffee while you get lined up. Been going since opening day and refuse to go anywhere else.
Fantastic experience: This place is the best spot to get your hair cut. Moved here about a year ago looked up barber shops and found this one. Safe to say I won't be going anywhere else to get my hair cut.
Fantastic experience: I am so happy finding Johnny cuts. I been to different Barbershops in the past and usually have to change after a few time due to lack of interest in their customer even when they charge arm and a leg for a haircut and 10 minutes you’re out the door. I am so happy with Aaron as he pays attention to what he does so even after 5 weeks my hair still looks good, just a bit longer. Just the fact that he actually remembers how I like my hair cut just after couple of time shows his attention to detail. This place is very professional. You know this pace is good when you do have to book your appointment couple of weeks ahead and usually they are fully booked.
Fantastic experience: Actually the best barbershop in Oshawa and probably in all GTA. All cuts that I did there were absolutely amazing. Thanks Cody for it
Fantastic experience: Johnny is the man. Cleaned me up for my wedding day, being the only moment I had to relax he made the experience amazing as usual. Cut 5 stars, staff 5 stars, service 5 stars everything about Johnny cuts is 5 stars. Johnnys cuts is the only place I get my cuts and that will never change. He got me looking my best for my special day and I hope you let him do the same for you! Thanks Johnny!
Negative experience: The First time I made an appointment several years ago your phone staff was both pleasant and professional and your service was excellent. Today when I called to make an appointment for a shave and a mustache trim for my husband your woman phone staff was neither pleasant nor professional. Snarky and annoying tone of voice, She kept saying beard trim and I kept saying shave and mustache trim. She said words are not important. Yes words are important in order to get the right service or product you wish to purchase. Based on her on going phone behavior this call to make a simple appointment for my husband was going from simple to complicated to unpleasant. I told her to never mine I don't need the appointment and hung up. Life's too short I don't need more stupid. I hope your service is still excellent.
Positive experience: My review would be different if my barber was still working there. I tried to the other barbers I asked for a particular style and they did their own thing. I have not been back.
Fantastic experience: Huge shout out to Johnny Cuts for providing a great service yesterday at Durham Harley Davidson! Exceptional service and professional cuts for all. We hope to see you back again and thank you from the HD Family!
Fantastic experience: This is hands down the best barbershop in the city. Pattie did an incredible fade and the shop itself has the best vibe. This will be our regular barber from now on.
Fantastic experience: Huge thank you to Johnny's Cuts for always making the little guys feel so welcome. It can be intimidating going in with small ones as they are nervous scared and excited all at the same time. The staff are so accommodating and so good to the kids. we have been going here for many years and it's so nice to see a small business thrive. No1 barbershop in oshawa by far. Very clean , amazing customer service all around great place. The treatments they have for men and the amazing prices it's a must try for sure. Thanks again from me and my family .
Fantastic experience: This place has the perfect barbershop vibe. You walk in and parts of the shop take you way back to when you were a child getting haircuts at barbershops. I honestly love the vibe and that for me is added bonus to the amazing skills that these guys have. Friendly, welcoming, and amazing skills when it comes to a cut, shave, or even kids cut. Cody gets the perfect fade and ensures that everything is even thoroughly. Johnny is super friendly and always smiling. If you want a haircut, this is the place to go to. These guys are amazing and know what they are doing. Every visit is the same so they are consistent in their skillset. Amazing!!
Fantastic experience: My little guy loves going to get his hair cut here. Staff is amazing and Mitch does such a good job on my boys hair. Great atmosphere and very welcoming.
Fantastic experience: First time here today, I'm from out of town. Cody cut my hair and did a great job. Solid attention to detail and it's a nice little barber shop. Recommended!
Fantastic experience: One of the best. They're my personal Barber I don't go anywhere else besides them.
Positive experience: My experience here was really good. Mitch did a great job and gave me the haircut I wanted. The whole shop has great vibes and gives the feel of an old school barbershop where you’d want to hangout. The pricing is slightly above what I’d like but for the service and quality it’s worth it.
Fantastic experience: Been coming here at least once a month since they opened their doors nine years ago. Honestly, this place blows any other barbershop I've ever been to out of the water. I've had the pleasure of getting to know / booking with all three of the incredibly talented barbers who set up shop here, and on top of the unmatched quality in the services they provide, I'm proud to say I've grown immensely as an individual after diving beyond typical small talk and hearing of their passions for their craft, personal lives, struggles, life lessons, etc. Overall, I'm honoured to be able to consider Johnny's shop somewhere that feels like home from the moment I set foot in their front door. Keep it up Aaron, Cody and Johnny. You've all created something very special.
Fantastic experience: Awesome shop, if they can’t help they will gladly refer you to another great shop to help you out! Always good experience with them!
Fantastic experience: Nice place, barbers are friendly had two good cuts from two different people there and both were great
Fantastic experience: I took my 15 year old son here for a haircut today and we had an amazing experience. The shop itself is very well set up and decorated, clean and modern. All of the staff were incredibly friendly and knowledgeable. I could tell that they are passionate about providing great service and quality haircuts. We will definitely be back!
Fantastic experience: Been coming to Johnny Cuts now for almost 2 years and I've yet to be disappointed! Reasonably priced for a men's cut and Johnny takes a lot of care in his work (but he's also very quick and efficient). He's also super easy going and friendly. The shop's vibe and feel are also amazing... They usually have games running on the screen that you can check out while waiting or during the cut. I recommended my buddy to come here and he drives all the way from Scarborough now to get his haircut here. Try to get appointments though cause they are booked well in advance; that's how good they are.
Fantastic experience: Have been going to Johnny Cuts for a little over a year now and it's always been a great experience. The cut is always great and the staff are extremely friendly. Going to be my spot for a cut while I'm in Oshawa.
Fantastic experience: All my boys love this Barbershop. The atmosphere is easy going and friendly. Prices are reasonable and they are always on time. It gets the approval from 3 teenage boys!
Fantastic experience: Very comfortable and chill place to be. Awesome attention to detail and precision with the haircut - very focused, and was clearly putting his absolute best effort to give an outstanding service. Cody was easy to talk to and he cut it just how I asked (which hasn’t been the case at some other places I’ve been to). Overall, I hadn’t been happy about a haircut in years, but this definitely broke that losing streak. Possibly the best cut I’ve ever had!
Fantastic experience: They do a good job here, they're definitely professionals. They listen to what you want. Good vibe, cool spot! I will def come back here.
Fantastic experience: My son had his first "real" hair with Aaron. Let us say we did not leave disappointed. Aaron did an incredible job. He was great with my son. The shop itself has a great selection of products and complimentary beverages. Excellent prices. Definitely our new go to!
Fantastic experience: It's my first time growing a beard and I had no idea what I should ask for. Aaron made amazing suggestions, walked me through the whole process and his work was amazing. Johnny Cuts has definitely gained a customer for life. Can't say enough great things about this place.
Fantastic experience: Got a haircut for my 2.5 yr old who has unruly straight hair. It was our first time coming here and Cody actually made it look nice. We're definitely becoming regulars!
Fantastic experience: Greatest barber shop around. Been going to Johnny for 15+ years, loved that he opened his own place, perfect vibe, customer and haircut. Will never go anywhere else.
Fantastic experience: It was my first time at Johnny Cuts and I was pleasantly surprised! Cody was great to deal with, a true master, very attentive and the vibe of the shop is wonderful and comforting. Will definitely go back
Fantastic experience: My first time visiting today and what a great experience. Aaron is the best. Awesome job on the beard trim, I will definitely visit Aaron again. Wife loves it, thank you so much Aaron
Fantastic experience: Amazing place. Great atmosphere. One of the best hot shaves I have ever had. Very knowledgeable barbers!!
Fantastic experience: Absolutely phenomenal shop. Hair donation went great and Mel is unbelievable. Thank you to Johnny,Aaron and Cody as well for being very friendly and inviting. I already love this place and won't be going anywhere else. This is my shop.
Fantastic experience: Dude. This was the best experience in a barbershop I've had in my 42yrs on this planet. Aaron is a legend. I get a basic-style haircut and he somehow made it look like magazine quality. Plus dude is a genuinely cool guy. Most excellent people and welcoming environment. Thanks guys.
Fantastic experience: Love my cut and shave and it feels like family every time I go. Mel is awesome
Fantastic experience: Best barber shop on the planet in my opinion! Best service, best atmosphere and best cut around. Local family owned business.
Fantastic experience: Johnny and his crew are a cut above the rest... (yes, I am punny). If you are looking for an amazing atmosphere, nice cup of cappuccino, great service and an awesome service, I highly recommend Johnny's.
Fantastic experience: The staff here is amazing, friendly and the haircuts are top notch. Highly recommended! Best barber in Durham.
