Easy to make an appointment. I got one the same day. Marcos was the guy. He asked what I wanted, listened and took a lot of time making sure it was done well. Reasonable price. The cut was something that looks good after leaving the shop. ( I have had bad luck with the barber covering my hair in product so the imperfections don't show until I get home and wash it.) I don't think you will regret making an appointment here. I will definitely return. read more

Had a good experience here. It was my first haircut in a few years. It was a hot day, but the Barber Shop was nice and cool. The atmosphere inside was casual and I was happy with the cut. read more

What a magnificent experience! Raymond, who usually cuts my hair, was not there, I think he was sick, so I asked Eli for a cut. She was so good that I am now debating of getting cuts from her instead of Raymond. She is super friendly and will murder with the shears! read more

Great place for a haircut! The shop has an old-school feel to it. Super friendly people. My new place to get a haircut.

Great experience, Great quality service, I got the best fade by Eli , she is a dope barber , definitely coming back

Raymond & Eli are both amazing at what they do, great cuts & great service every visit. Eli is great & friendly & this shop is perfect for everyone & families. Thank you Eli & Raymond! read more

Love bringing my husband here. We like the service and very friendly staff. Raymond is very professional and always does an AMAZING job with his hair and beard. Definitely recommend. read more

First off, Id like to say Adrian was super cool. That was the barber I got at random when I called to set up an appointment. The place is nice and easy enough to find. My review is based solely on the hair cutting ability for the price. I only came here because other reviews said it was 17 dollars for a cut, but when I showed up, it was 35. I wouldn't have minded at all, but he got the top wrong and cut my hair way too short. The fade was sub par compared to other places I have been to, which also charged a lot less than 35 dollars for a cut. 100% not worth the price. It was overall good, not great, and for 35, it should be nothing less. read more

Excellent barbers! Jack the senior barber got steady hands, and very knowledgeable. I go to him a lot. No doubt any barber there are very capable. read more

Been going to A Barber Shop for years even though I now live near Laguna Beach. Jack is my capable barber. I've also had Jesse cut my hair and he is awsome as well! This is really an old-time shop with a Mayberry-like flavor and service. Highly recommended. At this time, a haircut costs $19. read more

Solid barbershop. Was looking homeless thanks to Covid lockdowns and Jack cleaned me up. Friendly place, no pretense, and good cuts. Bring cash read more

Awesome service! Great cut! Great price! Would definitely recommend to people! This place is nice and neat.

Love this place. True barbershop, even have the classic pole. Men only, no perms. Been coming here for quite a few years. Newbies, this place operates on appointments but also takes walk-ins. Not difficult to get an appointment. Nice to walk in and not have to wait. read more

A-Barber Shop - Classic barber pole! - Barbers Near Me - Long Beach, California

I have going here since the 80's. Jack used to be the original owner, until Jessie moved in and bought the business around 10 years ago. It was antiquated before, now they have flat screen tv. Jim who retired recently, brought in a lot of customers where he used to work before with Glenn. This is a clean, friendly, plenty of parking barber shop. Book in advance , they take walk-in , but strictly by appointment. The barbers are all professionals and skilled. They do shaving, facials, shampoos, etc. . They added a new barber, Ivan, younger and hipper. Jack still cut my hair. He is a navy veteran, old school, always wear a tie. One of the best. They are super busy especially on weekends, so reserve your appointment in advance! read more

Great cut. Had to wait for about 15 minutes after walking in but that's to be expected. Second time here and have loved both cuts. They did a beard trim as well. Costs aren't posted and I think are just at the barbers discretion which is ok with me. Cash only. read more

Absolutely love this place! I always drive by this place never went it. I called early and Jack answered (amazing man) he set up an appointment for me with Raymond. I saw he had some good reviews so i was more than happy to give him a try. He shaved my head and worked with me on my growing beard. Raymond did an amazing job No complaints worked with me on every aspect (im not picky i promise) Great atmosphere Great people Great conversations. Book an appointment, it'll get you cut faster. read more

My barber does not f me up fam. I'm always happy with my haircut. Real pros. O wouldn't go anywhere else

I was a little hesitant for my first visit given the perception I had from reviews. It seemed like it was an old-school barbershop that catered to classic haircuts. I didn't think it was a barbershop that gave the type of haircuts I prefer (i.e., tapers, fades, line-ups, etc.). I couldn't be more wrong. Upon setting my appointment on the day of (I called at 7:45 a.m. and scheduled one for 8:45 a.m.) which was relatively fast and easy (there also wasn't an additional charge!), Ivan was good to go when I arrived. I can't express enough how well my experience was. Ivan was attentive and thorough the whole way through and gave me one of the best haircuts I've had in a while (mid-skin fade with a line-up). In addition, I was also given a hot towel shave which was a plus (uncommon at the places I've been to). Overall, the shop had this mellow, easygoing vibe with a professional, classic, "grown man" type of feel to it. This will definitely be my new go-to spot from here on out. read more

Great "old school" barbershop in Long Beach! Got a hot shave from Ivan and he did a very good job. There are lots of regulars but I called in the morning and it was very easy to book an appointment for that day. Highly recommended! read more

Been going here for about five years now. I've strayed a couple of times to see if there was something better out there but I always end up coming back. I get a consistent cut, they are always on time, and it's a riot to hear Jesse teasing Jack. My only "criticism" is that sometimes I wish they were open on Sunday or Monday when I can't stand my nappy hair any more! read more

First time in a Barber shop in years! I was immediately greeted by everyone inside. Bryan introduced himself to me telling me he would be taking care of me. He was Great from Start to Finish. Highly recommend this shop to everyone!! See you again soon!! read more

Ivan is my barber and he always do awesome cut Always get a compliment on my haircut all the time I cut my hair, very nice and friendly folks read more

Haven't had a haircut in years, I'm usually the type of person who cuts their head bald because it's easier to maintain. For the past 5 months I grew out my hair and it turned into an Afro like poof; corse and super thick. This was my first time here and Ivan hooked it up with a clean cut. I wasn't really sure of what to get so Ivan worked with me and made me look entirely different. I will definitely be coming back *make an appointment ahead of time, ask for Ivan. read more

Needed a last minute hair cut so stopped by here on way home. Walked in and got lucky to have Bryan help me. He was great and very talented. The fade and cut he gave me was super clean! I will be returning to him in the near future read more

Great place and great barbers! They will get you the haircut and hair style that you want! Very professional and neat. Old school typa barbershop and I love it. The place is very clean and the aesthetic is great. Makes you feel like you're in the old era long beach. Will give this place a 10/5 read more

One of the few Barber shops that still has that old school feel...most cuts are by appointments only but you can always walk in to check if any slots are open read more

My go to barbershop for the last 3 years. Price: haircuts are $16. They also do hot towel shaves as well. Definitely the best $16 you'll spend on a haircut than at great clips or supercuts. Quality: I'm always satisfied when I leave here when I get my hair cut by Jack. I usually tell him my usual or bring in a picture of the direction I want to go in and he does absolutely that and then some. Service: Probably the funniest barbers I've been around. Hot shaving cream is what it's all about. Hot towel shaves are also an added bonus if you want treat yo self if you got the time. read more

It was first time for my son 13 years old to have a haircut at A-Barbershop, and it turned very nice!!! Ivan did a such a good job :) We will come back again!! read more

Unfortunate first time experience here. Made a booking, arrived on time. Watched a few of the barbers constantly on their phones, interrupting their customers' experience and in my opinion causing a delay. Got passed up for a walk in. Got an apology from what looked to be the boss, but at the same time passed me up for another later booking. Not cool. Finally after 50 min, had to walk out out of principal. Can't comment on the haircuts other than it doesn't take 30 min to do a crew cut even when you're chit chatting. Ironically I only have time to write this review because I'm waiting to get a haircut somewhere else! read more

Great experience!!!! Bryan was so nice to my son who is 5 years old! It was so nice to see him having a full blow conversation w my son like he was " one of the guys" talked about transformers, the dodger, and my son is looks fresh for his 1st day for kindergarten! Will be back for sure! Make sure to bring cash credit cards are not accepted. read more

Brought my 18mo old as a walk-in haircut, something I'm sure a barber dreads. Jack was super friendly and worked so well with my boy, helping him sit still by engaging with him and really went the extra mile to give my kid a great experience. I have absolutely nothing but great things to say about my experience here! read more

Tried to walk in but they're super busy it seems at all times. They scheduled me for a few hours later and were right on time. Good haircut, clean shop and will be going back. read more

I just relocated to Long Beach and was looking for a new barber. I decided to give A-Barber Shop a try and chose Bryan, based on the reviews that he got on Yelp. The place has a very friendly atmosphere,very quick service (no wait the Saturday that I went), and I was blown away by the haircut that Bryan gave me. He is truly an expert; I have had to endure less than ideal haircuts in the past, due to the way my hair is laid out, but Bryan nailed on his very first try. If you are looking for the perfect haircut, look no further than A-Barber Shop and Bryan. read more

I wouldn't recommend getting a cut by the guy in the far right back of the shop. He's awful at what he does and should rethink his career.

Nice little spot with a lot of LB History on the walls. Ivan, my barber was real cool, and gave me a great cut and trimmed my beard too. Best thing to do would be to make an appointment. Definitely going back! read more

The shop is classy with no hooligans! Good folks running this spot. You'll pay three times more elsewhere for the quality served here. Top-notch! read more

The drive to see my regular barber was getting more difficult time wise, so I decided to try a place local. I selected this place, and am glad I did. I've now had my haircut here 4 times and got a shave as well. I've had my haircut by Jack and Raymond, and they both do an excellent job. They only advice is to make sure you have an appointment, otherwise you could be waiting a good amount of time. The cost is just right, the crew is very good at what they do, and the shop is a great set up. read more

Ivan is killing it. Don't need to say much more than that. He gets the cut just right every time.
