Customer Reviews For Kori's Hair Studio
During the haircut, Kori's precision and attention to detail were exceptional. He ensured that every snip was perfect, and the result was beyond my expectations. I left with a beaming smile and an absolute confidence boost, feeling like a new person! Moreover, the entire atmosphere at Kori's Hair Studio was warm and inviting, and Kori's positive energy and passion for his craft shone through, making the experience memorable. Will come again for sure thanks for my haircut for Comic Con looks amazing!

I went through 3 barbers in Costa Mesa until I finally found Kori. His attention to detail and the way he cuts hair leaves reassures that you're in great hands. Getting a great haircut makes you feel 1000x better so why not do it right. Thanks Kori!!! See you in a month.

Kori is a magician.. I've been looking for my go-to person down here and I've found him. Made the appointment through Yelp (which takes you to his website) same day and he was punctually waiting. His studio looks amazing and there are drinks, if you want to partake. I told him my preferences and he took them and elevated them into a haircut/style that I am satisfied with every time I look in the mirror. He also had a good movie playing, which made the time go faster. Keep at it Kori!

It will be 4 years in February 2026 since I began getting my haircuts from Corey. I have been to different salons and tried different barbers in an attempt to fine-tune my hairstyle but no one works as well and efficiently as Corey. I’ve never had to wait for him to finish a haircut that bled into my appointment, he’s punctual and that matters a lot to me. A great analogy to describe Corey is that he’s the guy in school who didn’t study for the exam but aced it, meanwhile the class nerd studied for days but still came up short. Compared to other barbers , Corey just understands my hair without even trying, he sees things others can’t and he gives a great haircut that looks even better as it grows out. On top of that, Corey is just a great guy who’s very personable. He remembers my haircut preference every time, and on top of that, his studio is very clean and tidy. It’s always a great experience when I’m in his studio and I look forward to many more years of getting my haircuts done by him.

Kori is the best barber I have ever had. Not only is the haircut consistently above and beyond but the service is out of this world. I am always very busy and have been frustrated when other barbers make me wait past my appointment times, not Kori. Not only is he great to converse with, but he is always on time and gets the job done efficiently without sacrificing quality.

Kori is the best barber in Newport Beach! I've been going to him for 4 years. The bald fade with scissor haircut on the top is great. He only takes about 30 minutes but his attention to detail in that 30 minutes is on point. He is always on time. The barber shop is a clean, private studio and he always plays movies or something for you to watch. It has a luxury feel but with a reasonable price. One of the things I enjoy the most is the conversations. Very likeable guy and a great barber.

He asks how you would like your hair cut and cuts it exactly that way. All hairdressers that I know don't listen or follow directions and cut your hair the way they think it should be. It is a convenient location, super clean, inviting, with a very warm and welcoming atmosphere.

Received a great haircut from Kori. He did a scissors only cut like I requested and the sides came out looking great. Too many barbers now rely on clippers, but an experienced barber like Kori can do both. We had a good conversation and it was a very clean studio. Will be back if I’m in the area looking for a cut.

Kori's an incredible barber. I think the haircut he gave me today was the best I've ever had. He does a great job communicating and offering tips and suggestions. Would highly recommend him.

Been coming here for a few years now and couldn’t imagine going anywhere else. Cut is always consistent and Kori is always open to whatever you need. The studio is comfortable and clean and always with a solid movie on. He keeps the conversation light and vibes good. Well worth the cost.

I booked Kori for my husband's home haircut and it was a great experience. Having him come to our home saved time and made the whole process much more convenient. Kori arrived on time, set up quickly, and was respectful of our space. My husband felt comfortable and his haircut looks fantastic. I highly recommend him to any man looking for a professional, convenient, high - quality haircut at home.

Writing a review is a first for me, but the exceptional service provided by Kori and his mobile barber service compelled me to share my experience.

With a demanding schedule, I simply do not have the luxury of spending time commuting to a salon. Unfortunately, the local haircut options near me here in Newport fall short on quality, and I had no desire to drive out of my way for a high-end haircut. I decided to search online for a top-tier mobile barber who offers house calls in Newport, and Kori’s website immediately stood out. His sharp branding and the flawless quality of his work in his portfolio made the decision easy.

Kori arrived precisely on time. His mobile haircut setup is compact, pristine, and highly efficient. I have now used his home haircut service three times and have officially committed to a monthly booking moving forward. Beyond his technical skills, Kori is personable, professional, and possesses sharp business acumen - qualities I deeply respect.

At 62 years young, I can say without hesitation that his haircuts are among the absolute finest I have ever received. The shape, detail, and blend were spot-on. A mobile haircut service like this is an incredible asset for anyone who values quality and absolute convenience. It's great for those who can afford it.
