Absolutely horrible. I came in to get my two teens cuts as walk ins and they said "we'll be right with you." We waited over an hour and a half before they took one of them. He showed a reference photo and I explained what type of cut he wanted. All of the people they took before us had cuts that took 30-60 minutes. 5 minutes into his cut the girl had an appointment come in and she told him she'd be right with him. She rushed the rest of my son's cut, it was maybe 10 minutes total so she could get to her appointment. She absolutely butchered him. She took off over 3 inches too much off the top and it looks like a bowl cut. We left before they could ruin my other kids hair. Do not come here under any circumstances. read more

Just got a fresh wet cut from yogi I came from Ontario not knowing any spots to get a cut and I hit joes I was a walk in and I was impressed I'm coming here every time I'm in the area for a fresh cut. read more

No wait, barber was friendly and talkative. He cut my hair exactly the way I requested. Will be back!

Lazy no attention to detail big guy in the front put the least amount of effort into cutting the few hairs I have, all I needed was a buzz and fade and couldn't even get a 1 even all around, going have to fix this cut myself paid 30 tipped 10 for taking me in right before they closed read more

$25 for a BUZZ CUT!!!!!! Never again!! Unbelievable that a buzz cut could cost so much for 10 minutes of work!! read more

This place has been around since I was a kid, always a great spot for a good clean cut! Proper & professional! In the heart of Indio!! Ol' school vibe, classic style. read more

Best haircut I've had in the valley! Noah did a fantastic job with my fade and everyone else made the time fly by. Definitely recommend this place for your next hair cut read more

Noah did a great job, cool old school barber shop. Took me as a walk-on and got to me right away.

We have a 1 year old son and didn't know what we wanted or how he would do, pj was so nice and welcoming he said he would take him as he was almost done with the cut he was doing. He was so patient and gentle and knew exactly what cut to give him. We won't be going to anyone else. read more

Joe's Barber Shop - So patient - Barbers Near Me - Indio, California

See all

Told we were next in line, there was one person in front of us. Were seen last, they took a family of four before us. Waited over an hour for one haircut. They don't take card payments only cash. $30 for a cut. The place is dirty, I don't think a single person knows what a broom is let alone a mop. The way they take care of their store should tell you how they maintain their tools. I don't think we'll be coming back. Edit: the family did not have an appointment. read more

We drive from DHS to this place because the cut is always great! Linda is the daughter of Joe and has learned her father's trade well. And it's nice to see a family business in business for so long read more

I just dropped in here after reading other reviews. Very basic, very authentic barber shop...no salon trappings...fine by me! Tried Deven, the only female in the shop, and she's great! read more

Great old school barber shop. Family business. Highly recommend it! Linda is the best! read more

If you live in Indo or happen to just be there and need a hair cut go see my boy Noah at Joe's Barbershop est. 1971. If I lived in Indo or the surrounding area Noah would be my barber. Took 45min at least and did an excellent job. I am not one for writing reviews but he deserves it. read more

Joe's Barber Shop - Barbers Near Me - Indio, California

Absolutely the best barber shop I've been going to in the last 20 years. Customer service exceptional, professional hair cutting great. Linda learned the fine attitudes of her father Joe . A wounded person and dear friend. Highly recommend there haircuts and services. read more

I've been going to Joe's since 1992 when was about 11 with my dad. I never had a bad experience, I began taking my son there since his first haircut in 2008, Linda was awesome with him. Still going there every time I'm in the valley, now that I live in Washington. read more

Went back to the same person for the third time I even took a friend but I realized my hair cut was way more moderate this time. Pretty sad since I went home got ready and left out of town with a chopped up cut. read more

I finally found the right barber shop, starting with Linda she always cut my hair and does a great job remembering how I like my hair cut and a line up. she's got a tight crew working with her it's all family in her shop. Big shout out to Joe's Barber. read more

I have had very few barbers in my life and am a very loyal customer but when my go to barber for the past few years and the shop he works at decided to close on weekends I had to find a new place. It kind of worked out since he is moving out of the country in the near future. My schedule just does not allow time on weekdays to get a haircut. I had been to Joe's before years ago, have had my hair cut by Joe himself, and for that matter so has my grandfather and his brother many years ago. Today (Sunday) I found myself at Joe's and in Noah's chair. I got a great haircut and beard trim. The attention to detail was second to none and he made sure my fade was perfect before I left. I have found my new shop and barber and couldn't be happier. Additionally, there were two other barbers working and both of the haircuts they did while I was there looked great as well! The shop is clean and everyone I met was friendly. read more

I get my haircut about 2, sometimes 3 times a year because I am not one to pamper myself like most people are when it comes to their heads. Also, as my hair keep falling out permanently, I also don't mind a simple short hair cut for less maintenance in general on my end...so the following review is a slightly biased & subjective to whoever reads...all comments that I make should be taken with a grain of salt, and your hair will always be your hair: so choose where you go cautiously as all consumers of products/services should. With that being said... I like Joe's for their old school way of doing things. Cash only, straight edge shaving around the neckline, and a lollipop for the kiddos when they're done cutting your hair. I think when people complain about the service, they have to realize that in an "old school" barbershop, when you wait for the person that does the best job cutting hair for you, you wait for that person. You may not have all the time in the world, but that's how it goes. If you're on a limited schedule for the day, go somewhere where they take you in by appointment and make sure you show up on time bc they will definitely skip over you for another paying customer. Joe's doesn't take appointments, but they do have their favorites and for that reason, the wait can be anywhere from a half hour, to as long as 3 hours. Yes, i've had to wait that long...and again, I had time to kill that day, so i didn't mind. Bring a book, play on your phone, and bring your charger/powerbank battery, bc it may take a while. All the stylists there take pride in what they do. I've personally never had a bad experience there in the 20+ years I've been going there...and they all are good stylists that treat their customers with respect. The location is super easy to find...and it may be pricey for some people, but again, I don't go often, so $20 + tip isn't a bad thing. Thanks for reading and happy haircut stylist hunting. read more

Love this place ! Been coming here for 20+ years They always cut my hair the way I like it, from the days when I would get a razored bowl cut to the high and tight fade and the tapered regular hair cut I currently get. Those hot towel facial shaves are awesome too ! Staff is friendly, place is family owned and operated, I always see lots of repeat customers; I highly recommended ! read more

Monday morning............one barber........3rd in line............3 people walked out.........waited 25 minutes then I walked out. WWJD. What Would Joe Do? read more

No cap asked for a low fade the homie gave me levels. Three bigg-O lines on my "haircut". I don't know rather it was the barbers fault or his machines but hell nah I ain't ever going back. It's 2021 and there's still bad barbers??? I didn't realize how fucked up my hair was until I got home tss I even gave the homie a fat tip. Never again going there. read more

Joe's barber shop has been around for over 40 years. From my grandfather to my son have been going to Joe's. Joe still cuts hair but I prefer his daughter Linda. Linda has been cutting my hair now for over 9 years now. If you need anything from a razor cut to a good old fashion cut this is the place to go.. This is the best place to go for a haircut..... read more

Joe's Barber Shop - Best Barber shop in the Coachella valley - Barbers Near Me - Indio, California

Had a haircut today from one of the barbers named Daniel. For starters he smelled like he had just finished smoking weed as soon as I sat down (This was at 9am). I asked for a mid drop fade and left with multiple hard lines all over my head accompanied by bald spots from the machine. Idk if Joe's barbershop is just hiring anyone off the streets now, but I hope they reevaluate their barbers. I'll most likely wear a hat all week to cover up the cut. read more

When YOU drive 140 miles for a haircut they must be good! The best haircuts ever.. Have never seen or heard of a good Barbar in L.A. they can't cut hair. Reminds me of hiring a Gardner they never take care of the yard to you're wishes. Same with hair they love butchering you're hair off forget what you want. The City of Indio, California needs to be proud having lucked out in having a great place to get a good haircut! 5 Stars read more

I was excited about the place, after reading the positive reviews. Disappointed! The person did cut my hair way too short, despite my specific instructions regarding the length on the side. Now I have a white-wall. My sideburns are uneven as well. Didn't offer a mirror to check the back, which is apparently OK, according to my GF. I will not come back and will not recommend . read more

Been coming here, since 2007. Don't waste your money to have an amateur "experiment" on your hair. Basic haircut is what most men need, and Joe's delivers it with a fast, friendly cut consistently. Ask for Erin or owner Joe himself. Perfect cuts, every time! read more

If you're looking for an old school barber shop, where they try to shoot the shit with you, while cleaning you up with straight razors this is the one. Joe is the owner and one of the many barbers here. He welcomes all veterans here! Been coming here a good amount of times when I'm need of a clean, on-point fade. The barbers here are very skilled and professional. They have comfortable barber chairs and actually lean you back to shave you a straight razor is asked. They have a waiting area where you wait to be called next. I always bring cash to tip the barbers, so I'm not too sure if they take credit/debit. The parking is limited out front, but they have a dirt lot next door that you can use. It's located off HWY 111. They also sell drinks and hair care products here. Try avoiding Fridays since that's their primetime hours haha made that mistake a few times. Every time I leave this place I have that fresh, barber shop cut scent on me. Overall, 4 stars because it's in need of a touch up on the dirt parking lot and waiting area. Highly recommend if you want great barbers cleaning you up! read more

I had my haircut yesterday morning and I have to say I'm not happy because I have go get it re-cut today. I wasted 20. Plus tip. Be careful and check you hair very well before you leave. The guy put so much hair wax that you couldn't see how uneven and fu@k up it was in tell you washed out the wax. read more

I just walked in as the barber turned the chair towards me. Fantastic haircut and price. Can't say much more except I've saved it in my phone and will visit again when I'm next in town. Thanks guys read more

Great place for a cut, all barbers are well knowledge and up to date on most styles, environment great! Linda runs a great shift!

Zero stars is a better option. To the kid cutting hair in the second chair, great job on coating your business money buy taking people in that come in 30 min after another customer. Congratulations you lost a customer. Smart business decision on your part. read more

Awesome service. I got a quick hair cut and I even tried something new with my hair with the suggestions from my barber. I highly suggest this small mom and pop business. read more

Best barber shop in the Coachella Valley and very friendly staff. Prices are very reasonable.

George was exceptional! Minimal wait. Did a great job with our haircuts!

I've been coming here for over 8 years. It's is the best barber shop in the valley hands down. The barbers are nice and the hair cuts are great. read more

I like this basic authentic old fashions barber shop. Nothing contrived here in the heart of Indio. Efficient, traditional barber service, no appointment needed out the door at $14.00. The barbers speak English as well as Spanish so everyone is welcome. Just don't expect fancy. read more

A man's barber shop. They know the difference between "high and tight" and just a buzz. 5 or 6 chairs full on the Fri morning that I visited, but I was seated within 10min. $14 is more than I pay back home, but it was worth it. It is hot out here and getting the hair off the back of your head is the best thing you can do for yourself. read more

Walked into a chair, with no appointment on a Sunday. We left very happy with services. Clean cut. Well done. I must thank my referral. We will return. read more
