Jay's Barbershop - San Marcos, California

I’ve had the pleasure of getting haircuts from both Zach and Joe at Jay’s Barbershop, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. Both were extremely professional, took their time to make sure everything was just right, and made the whole experience enjoyable. The shop has a great atmosphere, and you can tell they really care about their customers. I plan to keep coming back and highly recommend Jay’s Barbershop to anyone looking for a quality cut!

Jays barbershop is an amazing, top-quality, and comfortable place where I received the best haircut I've ever had from Joe, whose craft and attention to detail is impeccable.

I have been to many different haircutting chains where the very best haircutters can do an average job on a good day. It's like playing Russian roulette with one chamber empty and five full, where winning gets you a decent haircut. One day my girlfriend suggested that I go to an actual barbershop and spend a little extra. I chose this barbershop for the reviews and proximity to where I live and I am absolutely stoked with the choice I made. I've never had my neck shaved with a straight razor and warm shaving cream, a hot towel, or access to free drinks at any chain shop. Spending a tiny bit extra for not just an amazing haircut, but experience, is absolutely worth it.

My father used to say that "God is in the details" and this shop encapsulates that perfectly.

First timer at Jays Barbershop and I can confidently say that it will now be my main location for my haircut. After trying out multiple shops around the area, I felt like this shop was it for me because of the staff and atmosphere. It is a welcoming and family friendly experience on top of being a professional service space.

Upon walking in Jay welcomed me and asked about my desired work to get done up top. After suggesting my idea he then went on to make a couple suggestions to enhance my look and I took him up for it which in return worked very well for me. Some of his suggestions and feedback were things I didn’t think about but now I know that Jay is about his craft and trusted him 100%.

Thank you Jay for your work! Will definitely start to become a regular here and will refer family/friends to your shop. Barbershops like his are very tough to come by and more so the staff.

To any prospective clientele looking to give this place a try, please go for it! I highly recommend Jay and put your trust in his hands.

If you’re looking for a barbershop that completely defies any toxic stereotypes you may associate a shop with, you’ve found the right place! Jay is one of the dopest dudes you’ll ever meet that puts a huge weight on the customer service experience at his shop. With free drinks, a comfy couch and an awesome aesthetic while you wait, you’ll feel right at home. The haircut experience was very detailed, focused on my hair’s needs, while incorporating what I wanted out of a cut. One thing is for sure, Jay will be straight with you on whether he thinks the style/look you are going for works for your head or not. Thank you for the most positive and progressive experience I’ve ever had stepping into a shop and I will absolutely be back next month! Cheers Jay!

Fantastic experience! I’m normally just a quick easy haircut kind of guy who goes into the soonest great cuts, or whatever. I just randomly picked Jay and it has been an awesome experience. Never going anywhere else. A very professional service in a great friendly manner. He knows what he doing. Highly recommend. Just a heads up though. He fills up fast. Make sure to book on his website.

Still a top tier place. Jay has expanded his crew, and I had the pleasure today of getting a haircut by Joe T. I love the kind of quality they are doing here. Keep up the great work!

I was referred to Jay from my friend, almost half a year ago. The experience here is unparalleled. The atmosphere, vibe and ambiance is what makes the location so successful this soon. I have been back to see Jay every 2 weeks or so since he opened. He always treats people right and makes sure I’m all set before I’m out the door. Classic shop with high integrity. He values your time and is a man of his word! Jay’s Barber shop is my number 1 choice. You get what you pay for!
