Adrienne let me get a hair and beard trim for a under price. I didn't have enough money, but this important job interview this weekend. Adrienne helped me anyway. Everybody is complimenting me about my awesome haircut! read more

5 stars, highly recommended. Especially if you're a combination of particular about your hair and "I don't know exactly what I want" like me. Went in the first time not knowing what to expect, and Adrienne was great- she asked me about my job, my hobbies, my sense of style and some basics about what I like to do with my hair, and I walked out with the best haircut of my life. That was over 2 years ago, and I haven't been anywhere else since. Adrienne is fun to talk to and very friendly (I normally hate talking while getting my haircut, but she's good fun), and a real professional. I've referred several friends who are all regulars now, she really personalizes the experience and it shows in the final product. read more

Adrienne is truly a gem!! I'm growing my hair out for the first time, so I haven't had a haircut in over 4 months. I was concerned about going to the right stylist/barber, especially since my hair was quite unruly! (And that's probably putting it nicely. ) Nevertheless, Adrienne worked her magic! She provided one of my best hair cutting experiences by being professional, personable, and an overall joy to be with. In the end, she managed to give me one of my best haircuts. I'm not very good at saying how I'd like to get my haircuts. Even so, Adrienne understood. And she delivered! Thank you so much!! read more

I've been coming here for last year to get my haircut and every time it's amazing. I always get a lot compliments and people always ask me where I go to get my haircut. I remember when I went in the first time which I have to admit I was a bit nerves. Especially When I tried 4 other barber with no luck. I downloaded a pic to show her how I wanted my hair to look like. She stopped and looked at the pic and said "Yeah I can totally to that". Man she nailed it and I've been coming back to her ever since. Great things that I love about going to see her: 1) she sets appointments up so when you come in your número one to her. 2) she washes and shampoos your hair and also places a warm towel over face (this feels amazing). 3) she sits you back down on the barbers chair, and shaves the back of your neck with a straight razor. End result is a bad a$$ haircut. read more

Associate Barbers - Bad a$$ haircut - Barbers Near Me - Pasadena, California

This review is long overdue. Adrienne knows what she's doing. I absolutely love coming to her because she does an amazing job at cutting my hair and we have great conversation. I have never once walked out of her salon and not liked my hair. She has the magic touch! The best thing is that she is so easy to talk to. Which is honestly a big deal when getting a haircut because I always sit in silence with other barbers. But with Adrienne, we talk about everything and there's never a dull moment! Overall, I absolutely love Adrienne and her magic touch! I can't wait until my next appointment with her :) read more

Adrienne gave me the best haircut I'd had in 20 years (back then I had much more hair). I left looking clean and professional and feeling great. read more

Adrienne is super nice and great at what she does! I had a lovely time, very satisfied with the results. Will be returning soon

Great Cut! Thank you Adrienne. I came in from out of town and needed a cut before a wedding. Not only do I look solid, you taught me a thing or two about my hair. Highly recommend. read more

Well what can I say! Went back for my follow up cut and Adrienne was her usual friendly , chatty, lively self. If you want a great cut, great conversation, fun, intelligent, educated and informed, then this is the place! Oh, and by the way, did I mention that Adrienne gives the MOST amazing shampoo and head massage with a scented hot towel! Its about time guys had a great place to go to and have a great experience underpinned by an awesome haircut! I just wish my hair would grow quicker so I can go back again sooner lol lol lol THANKS! read more

Adrienne is not just any barber. She is an artist with the scissors! Pleasantly surprised at how serious she is about giving you the best possible haircut. Will surely visit again. read more

Adrienne is an excellent barbress who knows exactly how you want to look. Very easy to talk to and generous with sampling products as well. You won't find a better haircut than this in Old Town Pasadena. read more

Associate Barbers - Barbers Near Me - Pasadena, California

Terrible! I called to ask about the service at this salon and right up front I could tell that Adrienne's tone was not of someone with customer service experience. All I wanted to know was what services she provided and she answered in such a rude manner, no thank you. read more

Good cut but simply not worth 50$ (after tip). It was not significantly better than my regular barber who I pay 25$ (after tip). The only difference was a shampoo. Hard to justify paying this much for a simple cut. Adrien is a very nice person so it was overall a pleasant experience, until I had to pay. read more

Got my haircut last Sat! WOW!! At first a was a bit hesitant to get my hair done here because previous stylist have brutalized my hair where I am either left almost in tears or angry. Adrienne is a GODDESS!!! I left her business feeling really happy and great about my haircut, and that has never! EVER! happened to me... My hair texture is really coarse and thick like "asian hair" so people never know how to cut it right, but she did!! I am soooo HAPPY I found her! Its amazing how much sexier a great haircut can make you feel! :) read more

I came here on my roommates advice which in turn he got from yelp. This place is hidden at first but all good places start off as hidden. I went in to get my mohawk recut and Adrienne did a terrific job. I felt relaxed and comfortable while she cut my hair( to the point of sleeping lol) she ask how I like my hair everystep of the way which made me feel like i was part of the process and not just another number. I will come back again because you just dont get this kind of service any where else. Thanks Adrienne! You rock! read more

My first visit at Associate Barbers was terrific. I wanted a new and more stylish haircut but did not know what exactly to do with my hair. Adrienne was able to pick out the perfect style for me. Her personality was definitely on the strong side but still great all in all. I loved my new haircut. My second visit I could tell Adrienne was feeling a little "on edge." Throughout the course of my haircut Adrienne got more and more agitated and passive aggressive. I was not sure what I had said or what happened but it was obvious she was angry which made for an extremely uncomfortable haircut. My hair turned out great but was not worth the hostile environment. read more

Great style and really cool place. Should be noted there is a surcharge for credit cards so bring cash!

Quite possibly one of the best haircuts I've ever gotten! Adrienne definitely knows what she's doing. She was extremely attentive to everything that I wanted. Asian male hair is notoriously difficult to cut well (unless you want a gangster fade) and she did a fantastic job. She is extremely knowledgable and honest about her opinions on what she thinks will work with your hair. I trust her completely as a barber/stylist. She even added coins to my meter because my haircut went long! Go see her now, you won't regret it! Plus with the yelp deal you get 2 haircuts! read more

First of all, this place is hard to find and that's because she's located inside of Bella sol tanning salon. Secondly, fucking fantastic job Adrienne! Honestly I was doubtful at first because I thought she only knew how to cut long hair. She told me she was a licensed barber and so I agreed to get my hair cut. Let's just say she knows what's up, she can taper, line up, fade and anything else u want. If your in the Pasadena area or just want a really good cut go see her! read more

After countless attempts at nearby barbers, I've finally found a place that can do a good Asian fade. Adrienne is super nice, super skilled (she's a perfectionist), and has cut my hair perfect everytime I've gone to her. It's easy to get an appointment, is always ontime, and is located in an isolated, quiet backroom which is pretty classy. Overall great experience. I definitely recommend her 100%. read more

After visiting a plethora of barber shops across Southern California, Associate Barbers is as good as it gets. Adrienne's skill is unmatched; a barber/stylist that takes complete pride in her work. All the previous reviews pretty much nailed it on the head, so it would be repetitive for me to write about her profound skill. Do yourself a favor, and go visit her. Trust me. As for the people who find the price to be a bit steep; well, one, you must have been to some subpar barber/salon that didn't give you the proper haircut you need, thus charging a lower price; and two, for someone with her skill, it is a steal for the price she charges. In all honesty, she should (and could) be charging more. Go pay her a visit, you won't regret it. read more

Last week, I was driven to find a new barber. I searched Yelp. I found Associate Barbers. There was one negative review among many that were positive. I was drawn by the negative review...and it forced me to find out for myself if this negative person was correct. Well...he was WRONG! Adrienne walked out, greeted me in a most professional manner in the waiting room. We walked back to where the haircuts take place. Nice and Roomy! Clean! Professional looking! I was immediately at ease when I walked in. And Adrienne knows hair. She has skills. I am more than satisfied with my hair now. If you are in between barbers, Associate Barbers is your new homeland. Trust me on this. read more

Been looking a LONG time for someone to cut my hair in a way that looks good to me AND which my wife likes as well. Adrienne is a virtual hummingbird of creative energy, and sculpted my mop into a piece of art. She now has a new regular customer! read more

I should be clear about something important up front: this review is not about Adrienne's skills regarding the fine art of cutting hair, as I haven't needed those services from anyone in quite a few years now (I shave my head to the skin). But after a friend suggested that I try having a professional barber shave my face for me, just to see what that might be like, I decided to give it a shot. This review, then, will touch on Adrienne's gifts from that shaving-only perspective, although I have to imagine that some of the overall things I experienced (her courtesy, professionalism, talent, and warmth) would apply to pretty much any of the services she provides, including haircuts... So first of all, Adrienne was completely easy to schedule with -- I gave her a couple of days' notice, and we agreed on a time with no difficulty. She was all ready for me when I arrived for the appointment, too, so I didn't have to get all familiar with the magazine collection in the waiting area or anything. Her workspace is classy and private, with nice, high ceilings, and she pipes in music to add some extra comfort. The shave was really interesting. Adrienne uses a straight-razor, which is something else I've never experienced before: I'm a fiend for my Mach-3, and while I was mostly trusting about the big blade that she intended to use, I was just a trifle concerned about the possibility of being cut. Adrienne was so careful, though, and so gentle, that she never inflicted the slightest scrape or nick throughout the entire adventure (I do way more damage to myself when I shave, and I've been practicing on my face for decades!). She took her time, too: the process involves some warm-up phases, including heated towels and various lotions, and she was also great about not rushing the shave itself. I never once felt that she was watching the clock, or that she was focused on anything other than giving me the best shave possible. She was incredibly considerate of my needs and comfort throughout the shave, too, repeatedly checking with me about temperature levels of things, my reactions to new products on my face, my position in the chair... She took fantastic care of me! The shave ended up being really excellent, too: close, smooth, and thorough. and the price seemed more than fair to me, especially given the results and the sheer enjoyability and user-friendliness of the whole experience. I will definitely return. Adrienne is a charming lady, fun to talk with while she works, and utterly professional and committed to providing outstanding service. Highly recommended (especially if you've never had a grooming professional shave you before!). read more

I had an excellent experience here with Adrienne. I walked in because my car was being serviced. I was addressed immediately and she adjusted her times so that I could make it in time for my errands. She listened carefully to what I wanted and explained her process, all while giving entertaining conversation. Her advice on products and the way to style it were what I wanted. Would definitely recommend this place to anyone. read more

I always enjoy sitting in Adrienne's chair. She is very sensitive, sophisticated, and smart. She can work wonders with scissors and clippers and make you feel ready to tackle the world. I highly recommend you check her out. You won't be disappointed, I promise. read more

Simply the best cut I've ever had. A true master of her art!

Ive been a long time client of Adrienne for over 4 years and I'm constantly impressed and given the best service and consideration. I sometimes go in there with no idea what to do with my hair and she just takes control and does her thing (I recommend trying that). Adrienne is funny and witty and extremely talented with her tools. The combination of great service and excellent hair cuts is why I've been her client for 4 years. If you're in the LA area, go to her! read more

Adrienne is the best barber I have found in the Los Angeles area after over six years of looking. Not only is she very entertaining but her technique and intuitive styling are impeccable and contemporary. If you are every looking for a new barber I highly suggest making the trip to Old Town Pasadena; the shop a classic historical building and metro accessible. Competitive pricing and a very fun, clean environment. read more

Adrienne from Associate Barbers worked wonders on my very difficult hair. She did exactly as asked at a very reasonable price and was friendly and professional. I'll be seeing her for a regular hair cut from now on. Thanks Adrienne! read more

I've been going to Adrienne for 3 years and the top of my head's never looked better. Adrienne's perfectionism and professionalism always keeps me coming back, and the conversation's not bad either! Highly recommend! read more

Adrienne is a great Barber and really takes the time to understand what "look" you are trying to achieve. She has flexible hours and I have never had to wait for an appointment. Great men's haircut! read more

I was traveling from out of town, and Adrienne worked me in with a same day appointment. She was personable and did a great job cutting and styling my hair. Thanks Adrienne! read more

My wife is hard to please when it comes to my hair. Ever since switching to Adrienne about a year ago my wife loves every cut. Adrienne spends a lot of time making sure she cuts my hair right. I also like the fact that she works with you one on one rather than a huge impersonal salon with tons of people. Additionally, the cost is great. Highly recommended! read more

A haircut with Adrienne is like hanging out with an old friend (and a really funny friend at that). I've been bouncing from barber to barber for years, and she's the only one who can get the cut I like perfect. Highly recommended if you like a professional cut and having a great time! read more

Update - I have been a continuing customer for 2 years now. AD has moved locations (just a block away) and I have kept with her. She has great style and I always leave looking better than when I arrived. I would highly recommend her for a barber-style men's cut. read more

Great haircut by a badass chick! Adrienne was super cool and gave me a great haircut. She can totally carry on a great conversation at the same time. Well worth my time. I'll be back. read more

Adrienne gives consistently good hair cuts for affordable prices. She takes her time with cutting hair instead of rushing her clients. I enjoy catching up with her at my bi-monthly trim ups. I completely trust her with my hairstyling and often ask her to do whatever she thinks is best when I go in for a haircut. I have yet to be disappointed. She is a truly amazing barber. read more

I never really knew what I wanted or needed in a haircut until I went to Adrienne. In the past I had gone to supercuts or other equally mediocre and cheap hair cutteries. These worked, but I recently started a more professional job, and I was told by friends, family, and colleagues to get a decent haircut. I tried about 4-5 nice barbers before I found Adrienne. The first four did not get me the praise I expected from a $30 haircut, but then finally I went to Adrienne and I was complimented left and right. As someone who knows very little about hair, she even took a picture of exactly what she did so she can recreate the clean cut perfectly next time. read more

Adrienne is professional and gives a great haircut. She cares about her customers and always is reliable. Best haircut in Pasadena hands down. She has been giving me cuts for a few years now and I recommend her absolutely! read more
