Pretty much flawless execution from Nich. Clipped, cut, blended, and straight razor shaved with impressive facility. Very faithfully respected the reference I provided (seriously not easy). Complements abound for the new cut.

The absolute best place to get a fade in the city! Been struggling to find a go-to barber for a while but don't have to worry about that anymore!

hit or miss. nich is awesome but the other cuts i’ve done have had issues. that shouldn’t happen if you’re paying $70 for a cut.

This was a great barber shop. However, I’m bummed that in less than a year, they raised their prices several times. I think it started at $50, then $60, then $65, now $70-$75.

10/10 reccomend this barbershop - very skilled barbers with strong attention to details. I also felt very welcome and “local” (although I’m not).I had mid-rise skin fade done and it was perfect.

Got a really nice haircut for the first time here. Took about an hour. Only paid $50! So amazing value. It's hard to find anywhere in SF willing to cut hair for less than $70. Will be back.

I just started growing my hair back out after a few years of buzz cuts. It got to a point where it was just looking like a mess and I had a wedding coming up. Jonah understood the assignment and gave me a great cut that I could walk out with and grow into. Very chill shop and everyone in there was super nice. I live in the east bay, but I'll be crossing the bridge to hit Mellow next time I need a trim. Thanks yall!

My husband and I just moved the SF and I was really dreading finding another barber but M&B killed it. Their website is super easy to navigate, they offer online booking where you can select a specific barber or go first available. I did first available and was luckily placed with Vu. He did a fantastic job on my cut, and I had several compliments with in an hour of getting out of the chair. Very happy with my overall experience and end result, see you soon!

Jordan is an amazing barber. It took me awhile to find the right person. Jordan remembers my preferences, has amazing attention to detail, and gives me the perfect cut each time.I’m happy he moved to Mellow. Makes the experience even better. The space is sleek, stylish and calm. Will only be coming here from now on to see Jordan.

Had an awesome experience with Jonah. I noticed the shop as the Judah train stops right in front, super convenient. I was a little nervous being my first time there, but he was super laid back, easy to talk to, and best of all gave a killer haircut. He’s definitely going to be my go-to barber now. Highly recommend Jonah.

I stopped in for a beard trim while on vacation. Shout out to Melissa, she did a great job - and made the always weird interaction of going to a barbershop for the first (and in this case, probably only) time easy and fun. If I'm in SF in need of a cut, I'll definitely return.

The area is upscale and beautiful and the shop is absolutely gorgeous. Everything is very clean and modern with an organic apothecary vibe. Barbers have beautiful and spacious work stations with the latest equipment, along with an assortment of tonics, gels, pomades, and the like.I suggest making an appointment on the website before you go in, although walk-ins are welcome. If you're driving, try to arrive 10 min. early to find parking. Check the website for the most updated hours because there seems to be appointments available on Sundays.There are restrooms available and they accept credit cards and mobile payments. Barbers can cut any hair type so you don't have to worry about finding someone who specializes in your hair.I saw Nich today and he did what I consider to be a perfect haircut. I showed him a picture of what I wanted and communicated my preferences and he delivered in spectacular fashion. Prices are reasonable, especially for the high quality service you receive.The whole experience was comfortable, friendly, and satisfying. I popped out of the shop on a sunny Saturday morning with a fresh cut that turned heads as I walked back to my car. Mellow & Barbers is for sure my new shop!~

I had an excellent experience in my first visit to Mellow & Barbers - my barber Orion, was thorough and detailed in his work, and I left feeling like I got my first great cut in a long time. Music and decor inside was also great - the two pups were the cherries on top. Highly recommend.

This was the 3rd shop I've tried since moving to SF a few months ago, and I'm glad to say the search is over. Just from a picture and a few words, Jonah gave me the perfect cut. Neck shave is included, which is such a delight. Cool vibes, cool people, great location by N Judah stop, and they even sell plants. 10/10

I have never grown a beard before, but my husband convinced me not to shave for a week, and the feedback from friends convinced me to try it for a month. After the second week, however, it was getting pretty ragged, so I made an appointment and Mellow & Barbers. Jonah did an awesome job with my first ever trim and maintenance. I don't know if I will keep my beard, but I do know I will be going back again to M & B!

This is a great barber shop that just opened up a couple months ago, but is staffed with experienced barbers. My stylist, Melissa moved over to this shop recently, however I have been getting my hair cut exclusively from her since 2017! She is just that good! Great at listening at how I would like to get my hair cut and also advising me on changes too.I can’t overstate how much she has done for my hair style over the years! Also this barber shop is well appointed and very stylish. It is located right off of the N-Muni in Cole Valley so it is pretty convenient.
