Mi amigo mas es el mejor.

I had an excellent experience at Max Cut Lake Forest! From the moment I walked in, the team was professional, welcoming, and really paid attention to detail. The haircut came out exactly how I wanted—clean, sharp, and well styled.
You can tell they take pride in their work and truly care about their clients. The atmosphere is great, the shop is clean, and the service is top-notch. Definitely one of the best places around for a quality cut.
Highly recommend—I'll definitely be coming back!

Max is one of the best Barbers in the city. All these reviews are not true , anthony did not show anything at all and was smelling when walking in, get some deodorant before complaining. Max also has 2 barbers, very good with their work. Feel very happy and satisfied when leaving everytime. All these reviews are just mad they don’t like the kind of fade style. Also anthony i recommend let the beehive get you and take a shower.

I came in with clear expectations and even showed a reference photo of the exact haircut style I wanted. I explained that I wanted a clean, low taper fade with a natural neckline and balanced blending.
None of that was followed.
Instead of consulting or asking questions, the barber rushed straight into cutting and did whatever he personally felt like doing. There was no confirmation, no communication, and no effort to match the reference photo.

Technically, the haircut had several issues:
• The fade was taken too high
• The sides were over-shaved and uneven
• The neckline was boxed and harsh instead...read full review
