I had one of the worst haircut experiences of my life at the Silverlake location with Chris R. I specifically asked for a mid skin fade, shaved bald and close to the scalp, and instead received a high fade taken far too high into the top, with uneven blending throughout. There was even a visible patch of hair left on the right side. The top was completely inconsistent, including a noticeably longer section in the front that clearly hadn't been cross-checked. The entire cut looked sloppy and careless at best, like a bowl was placed on my head and everything below it was shaved with no blending or refinement. To make matters worse, he nicked my right ear with the blade, and I felt irritation on the left side of my head as well, which made it obvious the haircut was being rushed. The entire appointment felt like an "in and out" situation with very little care or attention to detail. There was no mirror check or opportunity to make adjustments before finishing. I was given a hot towel, brushed off, and that was it... no wash, no proper finishing, no product. He removed the cape and sent me to pay. For someone labeled as a Level 3 "master" barber, the quality was shocking once I got home and really saw the haircut. Because I had a trip the next day, I had to go to another barbershop to fix it, which cost me an additional $50 on top of the $90 service and $20 tip I already paid. Even the barber who corrected it was surprised at how poorly it had been done. To their credit, I did reach out to corporate and they issued a refund, which I appreciate. However, it doesn't change the experience. Between the rushed environment and lack of skill shown here, I would never feel comfortable returning. I strongly recommend being very cautious about who you book with here. Thankfully, I've since found a very skilled barber in Atwater Village who was genuinely shocked after seeing photos of this cut. read more

I was a bit confused, i thought the place was closed because the door was locked. But it turns out that I had to use the other entrance. The place looks very nice on the inside, clean and well lit. I didn't have an appointment but I was able to make one on the spot. I was well received. The quality of my haircut was top notch, I got my hair washed and cut with care and the person was well knowledgeable about how to cut hair as crazy as mine! would come again! read more

Chris R is a master of his craft. During the last year I traveled to dozens of cities overseas and here in the states, having A LOT of haircuts. Chris stands out as one of the most talented barbers I have ever met. I have a receding hairline + hair loss throughout the entire center portion of my head. I have a weird head shape, lots of angles and bumps. Chris gave me the haircut I wanted, without me being able to concisely explain it beyond "please hide my balding". His technical skill is impeccable, and his creative ability to adapt the skill uniquely for my head is extraordinary. read more

Very unfortunate visit to the spot that I have come to for many years sporadically... But today was absolutely terrible... I asked the receptionist if she had someone who can scissor cut and blend/ fade well... Well this stylist she set me with was too busy talking instead of cutting my hair... Zero fade blend skills and I asked him to stop as he was making the line worse... Then I spoke to the receptionist reminding her what I asked for and that this stylist did not know how to do both... She proceeded to tell me if I am not happy that I can leave... Wow not even a solution...just rude... Will not be returning there!!! Beware and be very clear on what you want and expect.... read more

Kait E. was lovely! She was very professional and super fun to chat with, and gave me an awesome haircut. Would highly recommend!

Marcus Wolf at the Silverlake location has been cutting my hair for 8+ years, and there is absolutely no one else I would trust to do as brilliant a job as he does. I'm a performer, and my hair needs to be cut a specific way every three to four weeks, so Marcus has cut my hair hundreds of times. He's incredibly precise and takes great care in always giving me the perfect haircut time after time. I've recommended him dozens of times and will recommend him dozens of times more! The absolute best! read more

Had a cut with Kait and I recommend it! Very chill and fun and knows exactly what cut you're going for and executes it. Loved.

Been coming to this location for just over a year and have seen a couple of different stylists (Aaron and Irena), both of which have been superb. The website does a great job of getting to know each of the stylist options so you can pick an ideal fit based on cut and vibe (along with different price points). The space itself is shockingly open and spacious, which lends a very unique character relative to other salons/barber shops. I have since moved to Pasadena, but still make the pilgrimage back to this location anytime I need a cut. Highly recommended! read more

Five total appointments booked. Three were cancelled on the day of the appointment by multiple stylists. Two of those cancellations happened within the same month. Extremely Unprofessional. Left this review on another format and Fellow left me a fake contact to resolve the problem. read more

Fellow Barber - Text chain of same day cancellation and lack of response to my texts. - Barbers Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Kait personally saved my life with the haircut she gave me. I foolishly went to a different barbershop, mistake number one, and received irreparable damage. I thought I was a goner, until I met Kait at Fellow Barber. In 30 minutes flat, she had me lookin like a brand new man, saving me from a life of degradation and misery. No exaggeration. read more

Used to go here all the time their new staff is terrible this past year. Incredibly over priced haircuts and they have no idea what they're doing. Thanks for nothing. read more

Visiting from Detroit, I decided to stop in and book an appointment with Michael and I was pleasantly surprised at how fluid and professional the experience was. Not only was Michael skilled, but aware of and compassionate toward the neighborhood. I would recommend this space to anyone who is uncertain and looking for a genuine place to maintain their hair. read more

Should be three dollar signs. Wouldn't feel the need to comment if it was expensive but a good haircut.

Got a cut by CJ there was super friendly and gave me a decently good cut. I don't think it was worth $60 but I'd recommend this place if you willing to pay that and you're in the area. Solid vibes in the place very nice ambiance. read more

For a 10/10 experience, go visit Carrie. She's been my go-to for years. Vibez? Rizz? Skibidi's? She's got it. No cap.

Been coming to this location for a while now. It's always clean and the staff are friendly. Kait E. is professional and fun to chat with, and she takes the time to understand what kind of look you're going for, so it's no surprise I left with a fresh cut. Definitely will continue to visit this location. read more

Appalling, demoralizing, incompetent, their self-accountability avoidance; they ruined my day and made up you-name-it to avoid reality; pick another hairdresser or should I say barber- because their prices differentiate - oh boy. Person I first got was not present, trained in robot obfuscating new age word salad like the smirking manager. It would be an essay to convey ensuing events. Don't give people or organizations 3rd chances due to laziness at finding better. Find better, even if a risk. read more

Molly is amazing. She knew exactly what my curly hair needed. Molly gave me a sassy angled bob cut, that still worked with my curls. Thank you for knowing how to cut curly hair, not everyone does. read more

I made an appointment last week and got a haircut by Chris. I have been in LA for a year, Im from SF. And it has taken me 1 year to find someone who really understood my hair! Id gotten a haircut by 5 other barbers/salons around LA. They would always cut it in 30-40 minutes, do whatever before they even asked if thats how I meant or wanted. And they would not listen to me when I would tell them about my natural hair being wavy and curly with a lot of volume. 4 out of 5 times other barbers/salons would cut my hair wet and it would dry crooked. Because they didnt know how to cut wavy or curly hair. Or they would not understand my head shape and fade it too high or too low, then the shaved side of my head would end up looking like a sea urchin. So they would put tons of product in my hair to weigh it down, instead of giving a proper haircut. And it would grow out like an untamed bush. But Chris! He really took his time to understand my waves/curls, the way my hair grew, my head shape and worked with my hair and the direction it grows. He made me feel really comfortable by offering a suggestion, asking me how I felt about it and then we'd go from there. And he would check in with me anytime he was going to do something different (change from clipper sizes on my sides, to scissors on the top). I can honestly say that when I was done, I felt like gold! Its been about a week and Ive loved my haircut from the day I walked out and even seeing how its going to grow out. It feels so nice! Even my girlfriend said that this is probably the best haircut Ive had. Im going back to Chris from now on! read more

I've been to many trendy salons and professional barbers in my time, but today I can say without a doubt that Ramon gave me the best haircut I've ever had. Not only did he nail what I wanted as far as a cut, but the care and detail he put into it made the experience and end result bomb-as-f. I didn't ask for it, but he took the time to clean-up the back of my neck with a razor (something I've never experienced). He also took the time to clean-up the stray hairs around my brows which has never been done for me at any other place. All Of this, while the salon was closing up and about to have a meeting. But he didn't rush, and made me Look and feel like a million bucks. I'll definitely book with Ramon again, wherever he is cutting hair. read more

I'm conflicted. On one hand, I have good experiences with the people and I want to like the place. The folks are friendly and welcoming with open conversations. The place is located well in the neighborhood and there's something about it that calls me inside. On the other hand, the stylist today completely ignored what I wanted -- instead they did what they thought I might enjoy. I walked in looking like a 28-year old guy with long hair in a band, looking for a "clean up" to keep the long hair. When all was said and done, I walked out looking like a 40-year old man with short hair living in his mom's basement. Not ideal. It's a nice short haircut. But man oh man, who doesn't love hearing from their friends: "It will grow back" read more

I am visiting family in LA, asked a friend for a recommendation for me and my 14yr old son to get our hair cut, they suggested Fellow Barber. I called multiple times over the course of two days, with an assortment of questions. The person at the desk was kind and patient with me every time (I may have called another location by accident as well... anyway, everyone who answered the phone was awesome). They set me up with Luke and he did both me and my boy right! He was old school barbershop cool: great conversation while executing a top shelf professional haircut. After my cut, I went outside to hang out with my mom and he cut my son's hair. When he finished, we left and my son said, "I want this guy to cut my hair from now on. When we come back to LA, can we come here again?" read more

Tipton is all that! Best haircuts ever! Hands down. He is fully vaccinated as well and is masking up. I felt 100% with him. I do wish Fellow Barber would institute a VAX policy. For now, I am trying to only get haircuts at odd off times during the week when there are fewer people around. I am sure there are those that will read this and give some lame BS reasoning about their rights and to you I say - "Shut up you're an idiot", I had the Covid back in Jan, and I wish it on NO ONE! I do not think the Government should mandate but I think Businesses should, do you really want to be the business that has the potential of killing 2% of your patrons. Just saying.. read more

Came back because I enjoyed the first two cuts, but I was displeased with recent haircut. Kind of feel like I was just another cut for the barber. Meaning it felt like he was just trying to get the cut out of the way to move on to the next person. The experience made me feel like i was just a dollar sign. Take the time to show appreciation for the customers walking in. In addition, the barber was conveniently added a tip for himself rather than giving me my change. Literally saw me standing there and reacted late as if I would forget. (I would've easily tipped if I was happy btw) Overall, i easily overpaid for a haircut that looks like I could have paid 10 dollars at the swap meet or better yet free at la trade tech won't be returning read more

So depressing to see the vapid overpriced replacement of Rudy's. Although Rudy's could be obnoxiously hipster in ways it at least felt local and fun a good place with creative spirits that we got to know over time. FB looks like a cross between a morgue and a corporate office center. Maybe a little character or color on the walls some day ? Took two days to get a cut there because they were so 'booked' though not even half of the stations have stylists. Not just a covid thing. In the other hand Andrea was an awesome stylist and lovely as ever stylist from Rudy's days. read more

Until just now, I had no idea that Fellow Barber was an offshoot of the former Rudy's so I am updating my review here. I am very pleased with my haircut performed by Manny. I requested a stylist who was familiar with how to cut and style naturally curly mens hair and Manny did not disappoint. I watched very carefully has he alternated between scissors, various clipper heads, and thinning sheers. The end result is excellent and I will return to him to manage this style. read more

Christelle was nice and help me for my color. Nothing exceptional. No coffee or water . No WiFi it's not working read more

Carrie L. has been my go-to barber for the better part of a decade... better BECAUSE of her cuts. She knows my head backwards and forwards, and can accommodate any hairstyle / topic of conversation my little heart desires. Will not go anywhere else! read more

Walked in this past Saturday -- expressed to my assigned barber that I hadn't had a haircut in almost 8 months because my last barber just wouldn't listen to me. Informed them that I wanted my hair to be cleaned up because the sides and top had become too long, however the backside of my hair was the only part that I did like. I also asked that an electric clipper not be used as I don't care for that short of a cut. Left feeling a little violated as I did not feel listened to at all. The barber was very dedicated in asking me about who I was and where I was from as well as telling me their life story -- however the only part of my hair that I had expressed my liking was completed chopped off with a sharp taper. Since it was also a scissor only haircut there was a lot of unevenness all over. If the barber had been half as dedicated to my haircut as they were to telling me about their life I would probably be a returning customer. The space has a unique vibe to it that was initially drawn to. read more

No ma'am. Despite showing picture examples of what I wanted and what I specifically did not want, I got a weird variety of what I did not want. Rudys was the only place I used to get my hair cut but I won't be coming back here. Very friendly calm atmosphere but I left looking like I let a baby have scissors. read more

Carrie gives the best haircuts I have ever got! Highly recommended. She is also a fun time to spend an hour with :)

Raquel Fajardo is one of the best barbers I've experienced in Los Angeles. I ended up at Fellow Barber's Silver Lake store after a first experience at the Highland Park store that was completely unacceptable. (I still won't go to the Highland Park store.) The management in New York responded to my experience by offering a free make-good haircut. I was hesitant, but decided to take him up on his offer. An excellent choice as he assigned me to Raquel. To start, Raquel is a delightful person. If you have to spend 30-45 minutes with person, it's nice when they are fun to be around. She's social but professional, another important feature with a barber. Some times too chatty means too slow. Not only was she a great person to talk with, but she gave me the best haircut of my life. It's not often that I'm stunned by a haircut as I have basic short hair. I'm in love with what she did, and the way she did it. I will absolutely be back for a haircut, but I'll stick with the Silver Lake store. read more

Got an awesome haircut by a stylist named Blu! Also great blow out. The space looks very different but the prices are about the same as Rudy's. Glad they're open. read more
