Another amazing work by Jenny. Her workmanship and creativity clearly shows on my latest nail design. I told her that I'll be going to Japan to see the Sakuras and wanted cherry blossoms on my nails. She then worked her magic. I love it!

Peter was exactly what I was looking for! So I posted on Nextdoor that I was looking for a good place for a haircut in the San Leandro area that would be good with Asian hair and do a fade in a particular way that I wanted. It was suggested to go to Peter at Modern Nails & Hair! So Peter and his wife as soon as I approached the door was just so eager to offer service. As I was welcomed in and came to sit down, I was offered water (I've never gone to a place for a haircut that offered water)! That was a nice touch. Peter took care to ask me exactly what I wanted and did his best to comprehend the particularities I was seeking for my hair & fade. Then he went to work... The most remarkable aspect about him and his service was that EVERY SINGLE STROKE was meticulously deliberate with so much concentration and consideration!! If you're thinking of having a quick cut, think again. But I absolutely love & appreciate that and prefer it; I feel that how long a person takes on my very simple straightforward haircut is how highly I end up regarding them. And let's just say that with such deliberate, considerate strokes, it ended up regarding him very high after all that was done...! One interesting thing that they do here is he uses disposable barber capes to drape over you. So if that's a priority or an impressive consideration for you, you can look forward to that and all it entails. Also, it seems they utilize the practice of locking the door during business hours; I imagine it's for when they need to quickly go in the back or something more security conscious. If Peter wasn't in the room at first, I might've thought the place was closed (saying this so you don't make that wrong assumption). The place was nice, spacious, neat, clean, and well-lit. There were the standard tables to get nails done and seats to get hair dried. I didn't take much notice as I was only there for a straightforward haircut. The parking is not so great. There is no parking in front of the establishment. The closest thing to parking being directly in front of this place is across the street; but good luck jaywalking across the very busy downtown E. 14th street traffic. You can either do what I did -- gotta walk from the lot and through the small plaza (Los Pericos is part of it; NOT the Pelton one) or the nearby lot of Leisure Cafe or Asia Delight/Sons of Liberty. One thing I have to keep in mind next time I go to him is to be sure to bring cash; as that's what he insists/prefers as payment for my haircut. But I'm not going to fret too much because he -- for as "highly" I end up regarding him after all he did on such a simple man's haircut -- does it all just to charge so affordably for it! He's cheaper than most of the places around the East Bay and I wouldn't be surprised if he's going as low as the lowest around! Just for comparison, my last 3 places for years were Wink's Hair Studio in Castro Valley (got too busy for a simple men's haircut), Kevin's Cut in San Leandro (he was perfect but only takes cash and was $18 before the pandemic but is now $25), and Daniel's Hair Salon in San Lorenzo (couldn't quite get the fade corners). In the end, I am one of those men who is a loyal customer and sticks to going to the same person/place for years and years to the next generation, and I'll be going to Peter until he retires or my genes cause me no more hair to cut!
