10/10 Okay,…read moredisclaimer: stop reading now if you're easily offended... because I'm about to get a little too real. It has been damn near impossible to find someone who could make my husband's hair and beard look this good. I mean, I envy his beard at this point. Kevin is basically a wizard with clippers and a comb. Every time my husband walks in the door after a visit to The Den, I have to take a deep breath and remind myself this is a public review. Let's just say Kevin's work has me acting like I'm in a romance novel. 50 shades of gray shit. If you're looking for someone who knows their craft, pays attention to detail, and leaves your significant other looking dangerously good -- go see Kevin at the Den. But don't say I didn't warn you.

I live locally and was really hoping to make this my new regular spot, but my first experience here…read morewas incredibly unprofessional. I walked in and asked a barber if he had time for a mid skin fade; he said yes and told me to take a seat. Literally 10 seconds after sitting in the chair, he asked me to get up because one of his "regulars" walked in. When I asked if the person had been waiting before me, he admitted no, but said he had to take care of his regular first. To make matters worse, while I was waiting, another barber became free but simply walked out to smoke a cigarette instead of helping the people waiting. It's clear they don't value new customers or basic professional courtesy. I won't be back.

Title: Best Haircut in 30 Years--Ingrid Is Exceptional…read more I had the good luck of stumbling into this salon for the first time when I urgently needed a haircut before a client meeting--I was looking shabby from a series of all nighters in my studio - and I couldn't be happier that I did. Ingrid is an exceptional stylist. Not only did she give me the best haircut I've had in 30 years (I know that sounds sensational, but it's 100% true), she took the time to explain my hair pattern and walked me through the right and wrong ways to cut my hair based on my requests. Her approach was thoughtful, precise, and completely next-level. It's worth noting that Ingrid did not ask me to write a review--this is entirely unsolicited because the experience was that good. The salon itself is clean, fresh, and bright, with an ocean view and excellent ventilation. There's basement parking--a huge plus in Laguna Beach where parking is notoriously difficult. The vibe is welcoming--no salon attitude at all--and it's a men-only spot, striking a great balance between a traditional barbershop and a modern salon. Ingrid uses a mix of clippers, razors, and scissors, all with equal expertise, and her technique really sets her apart. Highly, highly recommend.

can't say enough good things about Ingrid at In Style Men's Salon! She's not just a stylist; she's…read morea magician with those scissors. Every haircut she gives is like a work of art, thanks to her razor cuts that add the perfect texture. But it's not just about the hair with Ingrid. She genuinely cares about her work, and you can see her passion in every snip and trim. It's rare to find someone so dedicated and skilled in their craft. I've been a regular at her Laguna Hills spot for a few months now, and I was thrilled when she opened up a new location in Laguna Beach. And let me tell you, the view there is stunning - you've got the ocean right in front of you while you get pampered. What's even better is the convenience. They've got free parking on both the ground floor and in the basement, so getting in and out is a breeze. If you're looking for top-notch styling and a relaxing experience, Ingrid's your go-to stylist!

This review is not for the haircut (I go to Alicia and she always does a great job) but for the…read morebooking process. I made an appointment a 6:00 PM appointment for yesterday, to see Alicia before she leaves on a trip. I went through the website, chose my time, selected my stylist, doubled checked everything, and hit confirm/send/whatever button finalizes the transaction. An email confirming this arrived soon after. I put it in my calendar. All done, right? Apparently not. After driving 30 min to get here I was informed I did not have an appointment. I explained exactly what I did and was then gobsmacked to hear that after I book an appointment online the email I got has a code in it that I then need to enter online in order to REALLY confirm the time slot. Then, after that's done you apparently get 2 more confirmations before your appointment. You'd think this is scheduling surgery or something. This has got to be the most inane, idiotic approach to scheduling I have ever seen. Everywhere else on the planet, when you hit CONFIRM, that's that. You're in. Why am I, the customer, who made an appointment, being asked to do so much work just to keep it? But what if I don't show up, you're asking? H&N has my CC on file, so if the policy is you get charged if you don't show up, and I've acknowledged that somewhere on their site or by simply booking the appt, then that's on ME. Luckily, Alicia was able to get me in after first agreeing the stay late, but then her last appt canceled so I got in sooner. But if I had driven all that way just to be told my appt I definitely booked wasn't going to happen for a WEEK... this review would've had a harsher tone. I'm not jumping through a series of hoops to keep an appt I made and if that's going to be the policy here in perpetuity then I'll spend my money elsewhere.

That's why I stayed with them even when other locations had lower rates or the same rate. It had worked for me... until this week. I checked my bank statement yesterday and saw a $96 charge. That's a 20% hike with zero warning - no email, no text, & nothing in the app. I searched every folder in my archived inbox (I keep everything) and found nothing from this location. When I texted the shop, they said "We emailed you in May." If they did, it never got to me. I haven't even been able to get a service here since Dec 16th 2024 because appointments are impossible to find due to my schedule. I've been driving to other H&N locations just to use the membership I'm paying for. The good: - Most barbers are pretty solid, though results can be hit-or-miss with a couple - The owner's wife does fantastic job with facial waxing - The owner himself seemed friendly (on the couple of times I've met him) The bad: - Surprise price hike for longtime members. - No verifiable notice or prior explanation. - Limited appointment availability at my "home" location. I asked them to cancel my membership on the spot - paying nearly a hundred bucks a month for something I can rarely book there (and with no heads-up on price changes) isn't worth it. Other H&N locations that I go to have membership fees (for new members of $80-$88 a month like at Valencia or Echo Park. It's too bad they couldn't have done these price hikes with more finesse and not just hiking me up to new-members rate
