Really good experience at Excellence Barbershop. The shop has a good vibe and everyone was cool and welcoming. I had Max Perez cut my hair and he did a great job. He took his time, paid attention to the little details, and actually listened to what I wanted. You can tell Max takes pride in his work and cares about making sure you leave happy with the cut. Definitely found my new barber. I'll be back for sure. read more

Always clean cuts, and the barbers take their time. I've never had a bad haircut from here in 7 years.

I went to this barbershop with my son they said the wait was gonna be about 20 minutes but it ended up taking over an hour this day I was pretty busy so I end up missing my meeting and for the price of the haircut it wasn't the best the vibe of place was ok not the best. I wouldn't recommend. read more

Don't go to the short girl Sam I went for a walk in haircut and asked for a 4 guard mid taper and she gave me a high fade all my other experiences there have been good that is the only time I have had a bad experience just don't get cut up by Sam I am very disappointed because I asked for a taper and she gave me a whole different haircut!! read more

super unprofessional, never responded when i was interested in making an appointment after multiple attempts.

Great Customer service always very satisfied with my Cut Franky is always on top of business highly recommend him

Not that impressed, they made me wait before someone said they had no availability and was told to come back the next day.

Great spot! Highly recommend Franky! He always gets you right and on time! If he isn't available the other guys are good too

A great establishment that has unmatched talent! These barbers all work some magic with each haircut. The quality of each haircut is like no other. Moving to Riverside is how I met my current barber and never looked back! read more

Excellent place! Very clean and professional! Every barber is certified and well trained! Even the owner gets down with the cuts! A hot spot for sure! read more

I have entered this place twice and have left without a haircut so I can't really say if they do a good job at cutting hair . But as far as customer service goes , terrible !! I have literally gone in , nobody saying a word. Wait for a while and I'm guessing some of their regulars or friends of theirs get greeted and are taken to a chair right away as they walk in,Maybe they have a reservation I don't know. But if you like being ignored as a new customer then this place is for you. Plus I might be getting too old for this place. Nothing but youngsters all getting the same haircut it seems. read more

This is the best barbershop I've ever gone to. The service is impeccable, the environment is professional, the shop is clean and so are the conversations. The barber have excellent skills (see what I did there ) and are extremely kind. The owner is amazing. He truly cares about providing the top notch customer service. If you are looking for an amazing experience, a place to bring your kid(s), and for a quality haircut at a great price then this is the place to go! read more

I've been coming here for about a year and a half, getting haircuts with one of the youngest barbers here that goes my the name Uriel. He cuts hair pretty good but is not reliable at all whatsoever and very unprofessional. He has canceled on me multiple times even on schedule appts that were made weeks in advance and has rescheduled appts to different times then mistakenly thought he said another time and doesn't go through with a haircut at all. I tried giving him the benefit of the doubt but yea, I just rather take my money somewhere else where I'll be taken more seriously and not having my time wasted. read more

This is the first time I've ever been to an excellent I had my haircut by a barber his name was AJ absolutely was the best cut I've ever had in my life 100% will be coming back read more

This barber shop is under new ownership as of Summer 2021. Walk in's? Yes. Clean & professional? Yes. But their cordial reception and chill demeanor is what I consider the bare minimum of a shop worth my time, money, or hair. This shop delivers the barber shop talk & atmosphere you doubted was real but always wanted. I suggest you come to this barber shop because their combination of skill & attitude makes it the best in Jurupa Valley. read more

Me and my son have been going there for some time now. Chris is our barber. He is a freakin genius. Always cuts it exactly how I ask; always leave feeling like a million bucks! read more

Great spot to go to & affordable. The energy here is what you'd expect at a barbershop & will definitely be coming back. AJ did the cut & gave me exactly what I asked for & exceeded my expectations. read more

This place is okay. Seems to be that most of these barber shops have 1 guy that is always busy and booked while the rest aren't. It's cool if you like the "bro" atmosphere of these places, but are really unprofessional business-wise. Guy literally took a break to eat while he was cutting my hair. Most problems with these barber shops is that they really only know how to cut the sides and "style" clean cut, but they are really weak on shaping the top of your hair. This place is no exception. read more

I brought my son as a walk in, Erik Cruz cut his hair and both my son and I liked it a lot. He gave us a business card and recommended to make an appointment next time so we wouldn't have to wait as much. Every time he needs his haircut we call and schedule his appointment and we're in and out of there within 45 minutes. Nice clean barbershop, they always greet us as we walk in, they have water in the waiting room for the kids, and a TV to keep you entertained while you wait. After reading some of the reviews others have made, I would suggest to pick a barber you like, ask for their business card and schedule appointments with them. You don't go to a busy restaurant on a Friday night and expect to be seated instantly, same goes for a barbershop, if you don't want to wait long, schedule an appointment and avoid that. The shop is busy because of their high quality work. Great Barbershop! read more

This barber shop is hard af the vibe is cool Omar is the best foo is legit and comes thru with everything I recommend u stop by !

Took my grandson in for a haircut. At first I panicked because I wasn't aware of how barbers do haircuts and how they start at the bottom and blend their way up. I have to say this was the BEST haircut he has ever received. No more going to family haircut salons for him! He was so pleased he couldn't wait to start his first day of High School! We will definitely be going back! read more

Recently came to this barbershop since mine doesn't open on my days off and i was pleasantly surprised! Barbers were friendly and nice.

Best part is walk in are welcome and it's cash or credit read more

I kept looking for a good place to get a cut, too many around but didn't want to risk getting a bad hair cut. When I met Eric he was confident and proud to have a new customer in his barbershop. I was happy with my haircut to say the least! All the guys there seemed really attentive to customers and talented. The place is nice, they have entertainment for when you're waiting. Good environment overall. I recommend you try this place, you will not be disappointed! Best Barbershop in Jurupa Valley for sure! read more

I love this this place! I have followed Eric for a while now and man this dude gives the best customer service as well as the rest of his staff! This place has an adult atmosphere and is always clean. There is even a Ps4 and two TV's playing sports. What more can you ask for when playing UFC while getting a cut. This place is awesome and service has never failed me. Don't be afraid on your cut it will guarantee come out perfect and you will never have to search for another barber shop again. read more

Walked in, not one person or worker wearing a mask.. walked out. Given you have close contact with multiple people a day, i recommend wearing masks. read more

I called to see about the wait and was told to come in, I would be seated fast. Once I got there I waited almost a hour while walk-ins got seated before me. Will never go back. read more

Horrible service. Made an appointment, the barber didn't show up and I had to wait an hour for my hair cut. Next time i made an appointment they forgot about my appointment and had to take me the next day. Next day the barber cuts my hair in less than 10 min and does a horrible job. Been coming here for 2 years and I will never come again. read more

This place needs signage and organization. No one greets you as you walk in. Maybe because I'm 35 and everyone working here looks to be in their early 20s. Awkward feeling when you let them know you were here before someone else when you see them sit in the chair you thought was yours only to find out they have an appointment. Would have been nice to know I either needed one or needed to wait longer. It's almost as if I was invisible. I walked out! This was across from my house so I thought it might be convenient. I was wrong! Classic Barber shop or my favorite Top Notch Cuts on Arlington. They make you feel at home and is always a good experience. Don't waste your time here read more

Been bringing my kids here for a while, Chris is our barber and does an amazing job! We've gotten haircuts with a few of the other barbers and also got serviced with quality. Great music! Great shop! 10/10 recommend! read more

A friend of mine recommended this place cause it was new and close to us. I decided to give it a shot. I went on their Instagram page to see who did good work. Only one profile showed good work which was a guy named Erik. First Red Flag was this pace doesn't do online appointments. They do phone calls which is out dated and never consistent. I call and ask for Erik and to my surprise I was able to get a 12pm opening. I get there and the barber Erik I requested tells me Erik was almost done. I was like wtf, 2nd Red Flag. Guess there's two, Erik P and C. My gut instincts told me to walk out, but I figured a haircut is just a haircut. I might as well just get one. I showed the other Erik C a pic of how I wanted my beard and mentioned I wanted a taper on my sides. It started off ok, but then this kid in yellow soccer jersey was distracting him by talking to him. 3rd Red Flag came when, to make matters worse, my barber was distracted AGAIN trying to get someone to take his 1pm because the "owner" booked him another 1pm, and he himself forgot to write down his homies appointment for 1pm too. He spent the entire time asking other barbers if they could take his other 1pm that the owner booked. 4th Ted Flag was because of this, the barber forgot about my taper request. I was just over it at that point and wanted to leave the chair. When all was done the mediocre hair/beard cut was $30, but they charge here $1 for card use. I usually tip very well, but this time I only tipped $6 out of pity. My advice to this business is to get an online app. This poor 1st time experience could have been avoided with an organized system. No double bookings, and names of barbers and clients are clearly visible. read more

Came here with my son to get a haircut. I got serviced by Chris and my son got serviced by Waldo. We both loved our haircuts and were defiantly going to come back in the near future. 5 stars! read more

Nice young men 5 in total I believe . Appointments from what I've seen the two times I've been, walk-ins ok I did my first time. I took my father as a walk-in but no one available so made an appointment for the next day, he like his hair cut there more than his usual place just a couple of blocks away. read more

Had same bad experience other people have had. Was walk in just like two others who were attended. Waited over an hour and some other guy shows for a haircut. He is greeted with a handshack from one of the barbers. Finally one of the customers haircut is done and im thinking im up since ive been waiting over an hour and prettyboy over here who was greeted with a personal handshack just showed up. I stand up but NOPE! He calls over the guy who just got here. And says oh, he has an appointment! Are you serious. I dont buy it! I walked out. I was clear he did not have an appointment but they are buddies. Ill take my money elsewhere! read more

I called around 3pm and spoke to someone that said they do walk ins and appointments, he said he can put me down for appointment at 5:30pm which would be $30 bucks, I told him I'll do walk in which is $25. Walked in it's now 5:20pm and they said they are closed for the day! How are you going to make me an appointment for 5:30 but I can't walk in before 5:30? I thought trying this place out would be great but I guess not. I generally tip $10-15 bucks good thing it wasn't here lol. Please mention to your customer next time you take last walk ins at a specific time so they don't drive out! read more

Booked appt and barber Chris flaked on me. Owner didnt seem to care... just another barber shop where if you dont know anyone, you're not prioritized read more

First time coming here. Didn't have an appointment wait time was like 5 minutes. Chris came through with the clean fade. Will be coming back. read more

Horrible service, bad hair cut long wait man these guys just came out of barber school.

Nice looking shop. Average cuts. Terrible customer service. Not acknowledged upon entry and you have to sit there and watch them fight over who will take the cut. All the barbers will ask each other if you are their next appointment and lowest man on the totem pole will cut you. Way to make you feel welcomed. But hey, nice looking shop!? read more

Great place, the man knew exactly what I wanted, I came in with a terrible bowl cut, the man named Chris I believe, fixed it and it looks amazing, I have never been so satisfied with a haircut before, I do plan on returning, I barley had to explain and he made my hair go from complete trash to really great and cool! read more

I just left this place majorly disappointed. My son is mixed with textured hair and has about 4" or more of curls. I asked for it to be cut 1 to 1 1/2 inches and edged up. He barely has any hair left and its super uneven as the guy didn't brush my sons hair out before trimming it, my kid is so sad. Didn't realize how bad it was until we actually got home. I called to talk to someone about it and they told me to call back tomorrow when the owner is there. read more
