J.P. Kempt Barber & Social

Established in 2009 by master barber Shorty Maniace, J.P. Kempt Barber Social is located in San Francisco's Lower Haight. We offer an engaging, social, and relaxed environment where you can have an exceptional barbershop experience. The finest barbers in the world offer the best haircuts and straight-razor shaves for both men and women.

The reviews are generally positive. Clients like the ambiance of the salon and stress the great haircuts they receive from the competent staff. Some will not mind paying more for good service on a haircut every other month. Previous clients would recommend going. Staff are friendly and welcoming, and patrons can experience an apprentice to reduce the cost of the haircut for the first time. Ideally book early, and many believe the location is also fantastic for exploring. They admit it may be costly, but the haircut you receive is excellent. Attention to detail and service are essential to the job they do well, from the big haircut to the mop top. Various stylists have been praised by previous clients for their outstanding work, including David Oppelt and Scott. It is evident that clients consider the salon safe and meticulously maintained, as the COVID-19 pandemic has not stopped the shop from offering a safe and great service. One concern some clients had is that the salon won't accept tips on cards; customers have to pay with cash or Venmo to give tips. In summary, this is a fantastic and safe place for a much-needed haircut where clients will receive more than they expected from the best stylist assistants.
