After getting tired of barber hopping all over the valley with what seems like shops hiring amateur…read moreapprentices just to fill empty chairs, I finally got around to Zavalas. No halfass cuts just to get to the next person in line, no knuckle head barbers that couldn't wait to get high until after work. A real gentleman's barber shop. I felt like bare knuckle fisticuff fighting someone at a Saloon over a poker game after walking out of there.

We were greeted when we walked in. It is decorated cute with some old cabinets filled with hair…read moreproducts, hats and t-shirts. Finding someone who gives a good hair cut is really hard. And harder when you are looking for a decent price. Yelp was to the rescue trying to find one. Zavala's has great ratings that helped us pick it. Paul was the barber. He was very friendly and helped my husband feel more confident. My husband doesn't have anything fancy-no wash or style-just cut the hair so it lays nice. He had his hair cut once by someone who could really only do modern cuts and wasn't happy. Paul has the skills to do both traditional cuts as well as modern razor styles. We would definitely go back to Zavala's Barber Shop and recommend Paul. Thanks to Paul and the Yelp reviewers for leading us to new barber!

Great service and great haircut in a short amount of time. Easy in and out without an appointment.read more

Ask for Martha. She is wonderful. She listens to how you want you want your hair cut. My husband likes a scissor cut and she does it perfectly. Then she trims with the clippers. I highly recommend Martha at Crossing's Barber Shop. We haven't tried anyone else but we know Martha does a good job!

I've known Carlos for a long time and been coming to Integrity Barbershop for years. The shop is…read morevery nice and clean with always good music and good vibes. It is the best barbershop in the valley! Abby is my barber. If you need a cut ask for Abby. She is the best and will definitely hook you up . If you don't have an appointment they do take walk-ins and all the barbers are very good.

I just started coming here after my barber (Jesse) switched shops…read more Great location. It's in the Von's plaza so after you get that fresh fade you can pound some rotisserie chicken or maybe some gyoza from Sushi and Noodle which is also across the street in the same plaza. Everything is clean and the environment is very welcoming. They take card but it's better if you bring cash. Go to Jesse because he'll get you right.

I was skeptical walking through the front door due to past experiences. I had made my very first appointment with Carlos. I walked in, sat in the chair, and told him the haircut I wanted. The barbers were both chill, and the shop itself had a movie, a very relaxing vibe, and made you feel good. And the haircut itself was just, wow. I didn't expect it to look that good. Carlos definitely outdid himself with the fade. Very precise, great skills, and had a lot of conversation. Reasonable prices for a cut, and great guy overall. Will be going back there again next time

Somehow, I still walked out with a haircut that looked nothing like what I asked for. It honestly feels like my hair was completely butchered into a generic "high school" style instead of the cut I requested. I tried to be as clear as possible, so this wasn't a communication issue. I still tipped generously out of respect, but I left extremely disappointed. Based on my experience, I can understand why some of the negative reviews mention poor results. Yes this is the right Top Notch Barbershop in El Centro I'm talking about.

This place has got to be the worst place ever. Everyone here has a terrible attitude. We walked in…read moreon a Sunday afternoon and there were only three people ahead of us. There were three barbers and we waited for over 45 min to get a haircut. We were greeted by the Hispanic guy, about 200 pounds guy with glasses. My boyfriend asked for a buzz cut, POLITELY. The guy then asked him" what is that?" Then my boyfriend told him that it's like a number one. And he responded, " well you should've said that". That guy charged him 40$ for a 10 min cut. My boyfriend didn't tell me this until after wards but the barber was pressing his clipper on my bfs head. His head is all red from that. He obviously hates his job. But he didn't have to treat his customers so badly. Don't being your children here, they'll prob shave their head off. Still, my bf gave him a 10$ tip. Because he's a nice person.

Some of the guys there were douchebags and expected you to give them a tip after they treated you like crap (psh, yeah right). The women there were somewhat nice,not rude like the guys, and actually apologized for the wait (that's why i bothered giving them a decent rating because the girl who attended me was calm and polite being only one of the 2 females in the place) i only went here a few times because every other place was just as bad with service. Either you have that hair style they know or you are going to regret the cut and want to wear a cap afterwards.
