Hairchitect Barber Shop & Lounge San Francisco: Reviews

Fantastic experience: Ryan Rad did an excellent job! Arrived with a shaggy mess and went home with a tailored modern mullet. Will definitely be back!

Carter London Published on Google 1 month ago

Fantastic experience: Ryan Rad was amazing! My mullet was getting out of control / my hair was getting super long. This was my first time at Hairchitect, and was super impressed with my experience all around. Had a beer (coronita) and a whiskey while I waited. I intentionally showed up 15-20 minutes early to settle in, and enjoy the music / drinks. Ryan was super precise with his scissor work, and tapered the sides which is what I asked for! I have medium / long length hair with a lot of weight, and Ryan managed to clean my hair up, and got me looking right again! Will certainly be coming back. I also got an espresso for the road which was an awesome finishing touch!

Fantastic experience: Juani came through with an incredible cut! I wasn’t super sure what I wanted and cut me a sick soft mullet. Would recommend him to anyone

Vance Barton Published on Google 1 month ago

Fantastic experience: Just got a cut with Marco - guy knows his stuff. Was my first time here and he knew exactly how to craft what I was looking for. Highly recommend him. Italian barbers do it better. Place is great, all staff are good - will be back again.

Nick Kirkman Published on Google 1 month ago

Fantastic experience: Was visiting SF and needed a good haircut. Colin was fantastic, especially for a medium length style haircut keeping some length in the back. Also gave some great styling tips. 10/10 Colin is your guy.

Fantastic experience: Just moved to SF and was need of a beard trim. Juanii hooked me up with a fresh cut. Great experience all around! I’ll definitely be back!

Alexander Kononovich Published on Google 1 month ago

Fantastic experience: I had a great experience at Hairchitech Barbershop with Denys. He did an excellent job on my haircut — very professional, precise, and attentive to detail. Denis carefully listened to what I wanted and made sure everything looked perfect. The result turned out even better than I expected. The atmosphere in the barbershop is friendly and welcoming, and the service is top-notch. I highly recommend Denis if you're looking for a skilled barber who truly cares about his work. I will definitely come back again!

Dennis Krouse Published on Google 1 month ago

Fantastic experience: After a lifetime of short hair, it was time to find a new barber when I grew my hair out a couple years ago. I tried Hairchitect on the recommendation of a friend and it was definitely the right call. Colin offered advice on length and style, as well as care for longer hair and gives a great haircut. I’ve been back 3 or 4 times now and definitely worth the drive from the Peninsula.

Eric Limeback Published on Google 1 month ago

Fantastic experience: Shoutouts to Ryan! He kicked things off with an espresso shot and listened to me patiently to understand what I was looking for, and gave some styling advice. He did an awesome job with the scissors and it even ended with a bonus espresso shot. 10/10 will get my hair cut with Ryan again

Shante Zhou Published on Google 1 month ago

Fantastic experience: Truly an exceptional experience. Jonny definitely got me right, easily one of the best cuts I’ve gotten. It was my first time here but he really worked out the details and made sure everything came out great. Definitely coming back.

Rohan Carlo Sugapong Published on Google 1 month ago

Fantastic experience: These gentlemen know what they’re doing with their haircuts. They definitely exceed your expectations. Marco was the barber I went to for my 2nd haircut and he very meticulous with addressing my requests—I’d recommend him, btw. You’re definitely getting your money’s worth.

Patrick Kelleher Published on Google 1 month ago

Fantastic experience: Was there this afternoon. Friendly greetings, offerd water immediately. Had a whiskey while getting my haircut. I'm sure everyone there is super talented but I had Brian. Brian worked wonders. Super friendly and gave me the best haircut in my adult life. Great experience all around.

William Hanley (Will) Published on Google 1 month ago

Fantastic experience: This is one of those excellent experiences. The establishment is top shelf with free espresso and even whiskey and beer if desired. The barber was smart and a great conversationalist ( top pool player so be careful! ) Took great care with my hair. I would recommend this ( the best haircut I've ever received ) to everyone! BTW: if any problem, what so ever, and the owner gets right to you!

Julian U. Published on Google 1 month ago

Fantastic experience: I found Colin on instagam, (colin_cuts_). it seemed like he did good work with long hair. I was correct. great work, layered , textured, fixed the shape without taking too much length off. highly recommend

Ilay Published on Google 1 month ago

Fantastic experience: Amazing experience!! Everyone is very welcoming, make you feel at home. Ryan did an amazing job. So professional! Highly recommended!

Aidan Mollahan Published on Google 1 month ago

Fantastic experience: If you have long hair, book with Colin. I've gotten my haircut with him four times now. Consistent layered, and perfect every time. Almost impossible to find someone to do long hair. I get constant compliments. He is very professional. He is consultive and overall a very calm and mature person, and very easy to work with.

Kai Anderson Published on Google 1 month ago

Fantastic experience: Colin will sit you down in the beginning of the haircut, and talk to you for as long as he needs to figure out exactly what you want. I showed him photos and he showed me photos himself as well. I have hair on the slightly longer side, and I’m always hesitant to let people cut my hair because I get it messed up a lot. Before the haircut even began, I felt comfortable in Colin’s ability because of the consultation alone. I will add photos, he did an amazing job.

Gustavo Padilla Published on Google 1 month ago

Fantastic experience: Thanks to Jonny for hooking it up big time. Came here for looking for clean shear work and beard line up to give my hair more shape and make it look healthy and left very pleased with results!

Chris Hierath Published on Google 1 month ago

Fantastic experience: Great haircut, great experience. Denys puts a lot of care and effort into his cuts, would recommend him to anyone.

Mac Loven Published on Google 1 month ago

Fantastic experience: Denys was awesome! Great spot to come relax and talk with the guys and get a great haircut

Alex Cyberon Published on Google 1 month ago

Fantastic experience: Got a fresh cut from Denys yesterday — absolutely love it. Clean fade, perfect shape, and great attention to detail. Highly recommend!

Claudia Garibay Published on Google 2 months ago

Fantastic experience: Marco did an excellent job cutting my teen’s son hair. He listened carefully and created/crafted the perfect style. We are definitely going back.

Jackson Peterson Published on Google 2 months ago

Fantastic experience: Denys Televiak at Hairchitect just gave me the best haircut I’ve ever had. Full stop. I walked in with nothing but old iPhone photos of past cuts I liked/hated. No over-explaining. No awkward “do whatever you think.” He looked at the pictures for about ten seconds and just got it. The proportions. The texture. The flow. The way it grows out. Bro is the Wizard of Waverly Place when it comes to haircuts. It’s one of those cuts where you leave feeling sharper, lighter, more put together. Like you can walk into Daniel Lurie’s office and lobby for anything with 100% success rate. And honestly, the real secret is Jonny Haviv. He’s built a place that feels intentional. Tasteful. Calm. Good music, clean design, zero chaos. Also free booze! I’m sorry to share I didn’t get to partake due to dry January, but you can drink your value in haircut as long as you’re cool. It’s the kind of spot where you can grab a coffee after, maybe send your girlfriend to wander the boutiques nearby, and know you made the right life decision. Best haircut in SF. Not exaggerating. ChatGPT said it and was right.

Gustavo Becker Published on Google 2 months ago

Fantastic experience: Denys was absolutely great! One of the most meticulous hairdressers I’ve ever met. Highly recommended!

Rich Ridlen Published on Google 2 months ago

Fantastic experience: Denys was amazing, I loved my cut. He matched what I wanted with not much help from me. Love it!

Hani Durrani Published on Google 2 months ago

Fantastic experience: Jonny was very nice. Listened to what my son asked for and delivered. My son loves his haircut. Highly recommend this place. A bunch of very respectful, professional young men doing an amazing job.

the king of law Published on Google 2 months ago

Fantastic experience: Denys did an amazing job. It’s been two weeks and the haircut still looks clean and well-shaped. The fade is smooth and the texture on top sits perfectly. Definitely one of the best cuts I’ve had in San Francisco. Highly recommend.

Chris Madueno Published on Google 2 months ago

Fantastic experience: I was in the area and needed a haircut short notice near the end of the night. And the staff was very helpful and accommodating. Ryan agreed to stay late for me and took his time giving me a clean cut and beard trim. Great atmosphere, great service I highly recommend this place.

Be James Team Published on Google 2 months ago

Fantastic experience: Denys is hands down the best master! He always understands exactly what I want, almost like he can read my mind. He anticipates my needs before I even say them. Denys is always so polite, friendly, and provides first-class service with incredible attention to detail. Highly recommend him!

Vraj Chokshi Published on Google 2 months ago

Fantastic experience: My first time at Hairchitect and Denys killed it. Highly recommend for anyone in sf to get a haircut. I also got an espresso on the house, amazing spot!

Gordon McKee Published on Google 2 months ago

Fantastic experience: Arrived in SF from Paris and needed a haircut. By chance stumbled upon the best barbershop in the world , the guys are amazing. Walked in without appointment immediatly offered a drink which for a Scotsman was most welcome ... all the staff friendly beyond expectation.the whole team and all the customers engaged in great chat and we all enjoyed a few shots. Oh and not to forget why I came in, special mention to Nacio who took 10 years off my look with a great cut. Have never experienced a barber shop that i was disappointed to leave... hope to be back in the future

Grant Roscoe Published on Google 2 months ago

Fantastic experience: Marco is the man! Took great care of me, clean cut, and even trimmed up my baby beard haha. Great vibes all around

Scott Wilson Published on Google 2 months ago

Fantastic experience: Colin is dope. Came to the first appointment of the day 15 mins early and he got to work right away. We had a consultative chat about what type of cut I was looking for before getting started. I showed him some photos, and he showed me some as well so we were on the same page. While cutting, he was expertly opinionated and also open to feedback, making adjustments to my hair based on my preferences. We had some fun discussion, and the vibe in the shop was great. Free espresso never hurts - 10/10 cut and experience. Pay the premium - your hair is part of your appearance and your brand. Looking forward to my next visit with Colin (in photo).

Tom Tankilevitch Published on Google 2 months ago

Fantastic experience: Great haircut and great Emiliano and great vibes. The best scissor work. I have very straight hair and he handled my hair very well. I was unsure of what haircut to get because I’ve never tried short hair. His consultation and advice helped me out with my first taper. The beard experience was great with hot towel and massage shave. I highly recommend Emiliano as I had the best experience. AMAZING!!!

Alessandro Carlaccini Published on Google 2 months ago

Fantastic experience: Colin is fantastic. I have long curly hair, and it’s impossible to find anyone who knows how to cut it. It’s especially hard to find someone who actually uses scissors as well. I’ve been going to him for years, I’ve recommended plenty of friends with different hairstyles, and all of them love him and rave about him as well.

Gabriel Granados Published on Google 2 months ago

Fantastic experience: Denys has done an excellent job several times now. I have longer hair and don’t normally go to any barbershop. Highly recommend. Precise!

Anders Raarup Published on Google 2 months ago

Fantastic experience: Professional experience. Top notch beard trim. Ask for Emiliano

Shayla Barton Published on Google 2 months ago

Fantastic experience: Nacio did a fabulous job on my husband's head, neck & face shave with goatee clean up! He was professional, asked clarifying questions when needed & was still casual & made easy light conversation. Not only did my husband look great, but he said he felt great & hadn't had a treatment like that in years! The atmosphere was also nice, clean & bright with beverages served if you'd like.

AJ Published on Google 2 months ago

Fantastic experience: Just got a haircut from Ryan, We had a great consultation I showed him photos of the look I was going for and he nailed it! He has great scissor work and I’m definitely coming back next time!

Luca Tedeschi Published on Google 2 months ago

Fantastic experience: Absolutely killer business. Came and was impressed off the bat with them offering me a drink and keeping it topped off while I waited after arriving 15mins early. Had an appointment with Jonny but ended up meeting the team. Super genuine people and left very happy with how my hair turned out. Overall great experience

Souvik Dinda Published on Google 2 months ago

Fantastic experience: I booked an appointment with Emiliano yesterday at Hairchitect San Francisco, and this has been the best barbershop experience I’ve had so far. I’ve been searching for a good barbershop for a while, and this one really stood out. I genuinely felt heard—Emiliano took the time to understand what I wanted, and every cut was done with real precision and attention to detail. The quality absolutely justifies the price. Plus, the vibe is great—they offer free beer, so you can relax, chill, and enjoy the experience while getting your haircut. Highly recommend!

Patrick G Published on Google 2 months ago

Fantastic experience: Marco is amazing. From the moment you walk in, he makes you feel welcome and really listens to what you want. His attention to detail and precision is next level, and you can tell he genuinely cares about getting everything just right. Easily one of the best haircuts I’ve had. Highly recommend.

Charlie Meade Published on Google 2 months ago

Fantastic experience: Juanii did an amazing job. Super nice and fun to chat with. Took his time to understand what I wanted to do with my hair. And cut it with care. 10/10.

James Bohan Published on Google 2 months ago

Fantastic experience: I have been to many barbers during my two years in SF and have never had a great experience in any, even well known shops. Hairchitect is a diffrent story, walking in you imedietly feel like you are in safe hands. Denys always does a great job with my hair, I will definetly be returning.

Lesley Grossblatt Published on Google 2 months ago

Fantastic experience: Took my 15 year old son here for the first time to get a cut with Jonny. We'd been looking for a place that would take great care of my son's long hair. The minute we stepped into the shop, Jonny put my son a ease, listened to his needs, and made great suggestions. The cut looks great, and my son is so happy with the results. Thank you Jonny for your care, attention and consummate professionalism! We will definitely be back.

Peroun Meas Published on Google 2 months ago

Fantastic experience: Had my first beard trim with Ryan. Amazing job, way better than doing it myself at home. Definitely will make sure to come back regularly. Thanks!

Tyler Lampley Published on Google 2 months ago

Fantastic experience: Denys and the shop are great, good vibes and exceptional service. He asked questions and reviewed photos to make sure he nailed exactly what I wanted. Couldn’t be happier with the experience.

Yuval Assenheim Published on Google 2 months ago

Fantastic experience: Hairchitect is on another level. From the moment you walk in, the vibe, attention to detail, and hospitality stand out. The barbers are true professionals who really listen and deliver clean, sharp results. You’re not just getting a haircut here, it’s a full experience. Easily one of the best barbershops in San Francisco. Highly recommended

Alex Kehr Published on Google 2 months ago

Negative experience: I really hesitated to write a review, but they were very insistent I leave one after paying. Came in for a haircut that turned out noticeably uneven - one side of my neck was cut round, the other square; the back was longer than the top; and my sideburns were uneven and cut differently from each other. Multiple people commented on it looking off the next day. When I called to ask if they’d fix it, the response felt a very defensive and rude - it was an awkward phone call, but they did offer to have me come back at 8am, which I appreciated. Unfortunately, I arrived on time to find the shop closed; waited 5 or so minutes, then left. Ended up having to spend $120 at another barber to get it corrected. For $100, I expected significantly higher quality.

Caden Sheetz Published on Google 2 months ago

Fantastic experience: Ryan at Hairchitect is fantastic. He’s consistently great with both the haircut and the trimmer—super precise and really takes his time to get everything right. The whole experience is always smooth, from the friendly service to the solid coffee while you’re in the chair. Highly recommend Ryan and the shop if you’re looking for quality cuts and a relaxed, professional vibe

Michael Kelly Published on Google 2 months ago

Fantastic experience: Ryan did such an amazing job. I showed him exactly what I was going for and he got it spot on. Super clean cut, great attention to detail, and you can tell he really knows what he’s doing especially with scissor work which is something I've been struggling to find in the bay for a while. And I’m from New York, so hearing about his experience working in the Upper East Side salons was a big plus that level of skill and professionalism definitely shows. Easily one of the best haircuts I’ve had. I’ll definitely be coming back. See you next month !!

Markus Czirban Published on Google 2 months ago

Joey Tou Published on Google 3 months ago

Negative experience: I had a 5:45 appointment and was delayed until 6:15. I had a very tight schedule. When I got there one guy in the front greeted me and asked if I wanted water and it felt welcoming but then it was a 30 minute wait. Why would I have a 5:45 appointment and have to wait 30 mins. If that was the case I would have just booked it at 6:15. I feel like scheduling isn’t as professional as expected. The barber then sat me down and apologized but then I was kind of annoyed by that point. Then I showed a photo of what I wanted for a cut. It was a mid bald taper but then when it was fully done it didn’t even look like my picture. I paid 100 dollars for it. I’ll tell you one thing. It’s not worth 100 dollars. The cut I got was more of a 30-40 dollar MAX cut. The taper wasn’t even blended that well. I asked for a skin fade taper. The barbers skill set wasn’t worth it. He cut for 5+ years but still mid.

Michael Chau Published on Google 3 months ago

Fantastic experience: Excellent service. Ryan was very skilled and professional. Showed him a picture of a previous haircut and he was able to replicate it. Highly recommend.

David Cook Published on Google 3 months ago

Fantastic experience: Was in San Francisco for the holidays, 2 weeks past a regular haircut and a week of not shaving, thought I’d go for something new. Jonny was great. I tossed around a couple of ideas, he listened and made a few suggestions and got to it. I left with a tapered fade with high combover, he trimmed and put a pattern on beard, I left looking new. That’s something for a 60+ year old man, haha. They run a great shop, perfect mix of traditional barber your dad went to with a current vibe……espresso, hot towel shave, tequila shots with the regulars when they came in. If I were local, this would be my place.

Ahmad Rashid Rezwan Published on Google 3 months ago

Fantastic experience: Emiliona’s work is pure art. Super professional, friendly, and a great conversationalist. Absolutely deserves every single 5-star rating.

Isaac Wheeler Published on Google 3 months ago

Fantastic experience: I couldn’t find someone to cut my hair until I found Colin. Every barber I went to would cut my crown way too short, Colin knows how to leave length in the right areas so that my hair actually cooperates. I was hesitant about the price at first, but he makes it worth it. He Also takes time to consult with me if I ever want to change my hairstyle and before beginning the haircut, always make sure we are on the same page.

Fantastic experience: You said: Thanks Colin, for being best buddy and amazing grooming style you have given all this years to me, it has been always amazing experience, you have always took a good care of me and making sure making adjustments for last minute appointment, and never disappointed me even once in terms of last min appointment request or hair style and all you are the best, I would highly recommend people to you, unfortunately since I am moving to different place now, so wont be able get benefits of your grooming or services and buddy relationship, but when ever I come to SF, I would definitely visit you again, bye bro. ChatGPT said: Here’s a polished, heartfelt version that keeps your warmth and appreciation while improving flow and clarity. You can use it as-is or tweak the tone if you want it more formal or more casual: Thanks, Colin, for being an amazing buddy and for the incredible grooming over all these years. It has always been a fantastic experience with you. You’ve consistently taken great care of me, always accommodating last-minute appointments and never disappointing me—not even once—whether it was the hairstyle or the overall service. You truly are the best, and I would highly recommend you to anyone. Unfortunately, since I’m moving to a different place now, I won’t be able to enjoy your grooming services or our buddy relationship as often. But whenever I’m back in SF, I’ll definitely come see you again.

Fantastic experience: Colin is incredible. Been going to him for over a year, along with most of my friends that I’ve recommended to him. He is very attentive to detail and is very consultative. He never forces his conversation and has always pleasant to be around and it’s never late to his appointments, which is something I respect in a barber. He respects my time, my hair, and he’s very skilled at what he does. 10/10.

Matt Robey Published on Google 3 months ago

Fantastic experience: Do yourself a favor and get your hair cut by Egnacio. Class act of a person and lethal with the cut. This place is a gem as a whole so don’t waste your time elsewhere. With Egnacio, I came in there with just an idea of what I wanted, he’s good at bridging the gap and bringing that idea to life. As someone who doesn’t switch barbers, I will be going back.

Fantastic experience: Nacio is the GOAT. Seriously one of the best salon experiences I’ve had. He’s incredibly talented, easy to talk to, and really listens to what you want. The cut is always on point and easy to maintain. The vibe at Hairchitect SF is great, and the whiskey during the appointment is such a nice bonus I always leave feeling fresh and confident. Highly recommend booking with Nacio!

Fantastic experience: I’ve been going to Colin for three years now, and he’s hands down the best barber I’ve ever had. He’s incredibly knowledgeable and always knows what will work with my hair. Over the years, he’s helped take me from much shorter hair to a longer style, and it’s worked out perfectly. I get compliments all the time, which I fully credit to him. I wouldn’t trust my hair to anyone else. Hairchitect is an awesome, super vibey barbershop with a great group of barbers.

Fantastic experience: I came in to see Juani after 2 months of shaggy growth and he blew my mind with the transformation. He was able to hit exact look I was imagining, with great attention to detail. Good hang too, definitely coming back

Fantastic experience: I walked into Hairchitect straight off a long-haul flight from Asia, exhausted and looking like I’d been living at 35,000 feet. Ignacio absolutely transformed that. This guy knows his craft—from the moment he started working, it was clear he’s a true master of beard shaping and precision trimming. I walked out with the best beard trim and shape I’ve ever had. Full stop. The whole experience is dialed in: the vibe is modern, warm, and welcoming, the kind of place that immediately resets your mood. They handed me an espresso to wake me up from the flight and finished the service with a pour of whiskey that hit just right. It’s those details—thoughtful, intentional, and executed perfectly—that set this place apart. If you want a barber who’s meticulous, talented, and genuinely attentive, Ignacio is your guy. If you want a spot with character and great energy, Hairchitect nails it. I’ll 100% be coming back on every trip to San Francisco. Highly, highly recommend. ✂️✈️

Fantastic experience: Had a great experience at this new shop! Emiliano really listened and my cut is exactly what I was looking for. I tried 3 barbers in Marin looking for one that could provide a contemporary cut on slightly longer hair before finding Hairchitect. I’ll be back!

Fantastic experience: Colin is awesome his haircuts literally change the way your face looks. Best barber I could find in SF Bay Area hands down. I used to have to fly to LA to get haircuts like this. Would recommend!

Fantastic experience: This place is pure class. Coolest vibe, free espresso, and everyone is so friendly. I see Johnny (the owner) every time and have for over a year; the man’s a genius. every haircut is flawless and worth every dollar. The trims are the best you’ll get in the city. This place is an experience. There’s a medical spa in the back that’s brand new and I can’t wait to try. Best barbershop I’ve ever been to, hands down. Book it.

Fantastic experience: Nurse Lupe at Med Spa executed an amazing plan to put me back together. I thought she had a magic lantern with a genie the way she performed her task was truly amazing. The place is extremely clean and gosh I looked amazing after my first visit. You owe it to yourself and book now. The team is amazing here as I would highly recommend its most reputable establishment in such an amazing area. The deal is a steal and is totally worth it❤️

Fantastic experience: I really needed a haircut after getting a cheap one last month that didn’t turn out well, so I searched for Hairchitect Barber on Google and booked an appointment with an available barber. I got there an hour early, and everyone was very welcoming—they even offered me a beverage while I waited. My barber, Deny, asked what I wanted, and I showed him a picture of a medium length brushed back style. For the first time ever, someone actually cut my hair exactly how I wanted. It was awesome. Deny is skilled, patient, and makes sure to ask how you want your cut while giving helpful options. This place is now my go to barber. I’ll definitely be coming back.

Fantastic experience: Got a fade cut and beardwork from Nacio, whom I highly recommend. Despite being under a time crunch (my fault) he did a fantastic job. Very intuitive and skilled, and had a great time chatting with him. The location has a chill, welcoming vibe, and its easy to relax in, with drinks available there and great coffee across the street. Just give yourself an extra 5-10 mins for parking!
